Gladys is HARDLY moving and yet she has so much charisma, style, class and personality. conveying the groove of it.

The Pips looked happy - Gladys looked happy.........great times that have gone by too fast.

I never realised it at the time, but what a beautiful creature Gladys was!

@Bruhman420 Oh, I do know it. Although, I have a soft spot for Venice Beach. The song has some Acid Jazz influences. It hits the spot every time I hear it. I like his little flamenco touches. I was always a fan of Ronny Jordan. He makes jazz a little sexy. My favorites are, The Jackal, No Pay No Play, and Come With Me.

Wow, I just discovered this version myself. The only version I knew of was Ashford & Simpson when I was about 10 years old and have loved that version to this day. This was a great find. I'm finding out there were a lot of songs back then that were shared by different well known artists, they would just put a different spin on their version. But also, Ashford & Simpson did a lot of writing back then for different artists. The things you discover on KZread....👍🏽

@@gerardmcmillan8591, I'm not sure if you remember their original composition Over & Over. It had very little notice until Sylvester did his epic version in 1977. Have a listen to the Ashford & Simpson version, then compare it to Sylvester's almost 10-minute thumping gospel stomp.

Gladys is talent personified. Absolutely beautiful as well. ❤

That sumptuous red velvet and sparkling waistcoats. Pure class and finesse!!!

she's just so BEAUTIFUL

That is one classy Lady.❤

How good is this Tune???!!!

The fabulous Gladys Knight ad her brother Bubba with the Pips evokes such a beautiful “Remembrance of Things Past. “

When I watch the Ashford & Simpson "Bourgie Bourgie" video, it's so beautiful. The skyview of Manhattan along with Ashford & Simpson's wonderful instrumental is truly a work of art, a magnificent masterpiece.

The vocal is so tight..xxxx

I love singing to myself and my neighbors… that’s my song to feel alive 🗣️💥❤️🌪️

내가 좋아하는 곡이에요♡ 글래디스 나이트, 그녀는 아름답고 실로 위대합니다.😊

What a voice what a lady what a song what a time!

That woman knows she's gorgeous

Back in the day. I had a BIG crush on Glady's Knight! LOL.

I never get tired of listening to this song 🎶 it’s so uplifting, makes me smile and want to dance 💃 🪩 🕺

My first visit to Brooklyn with my family from London, and we stayed in a Air B and B. After stepping out from the Uber car, I asked a young African American man for directions to the apartment. He replied 'oh you mean the bougie place?' Classic.

Perfect song. And the Pips were really stepping

Saw Nile Rodgers and Chic in concert last April and the DJ played this in the theatre before they went on. GREAT TUNE!!!!

Love this version!

Best verse ever !

thanks for share this song beautiful

I love how Pip Ed Patten is not taking it seriously, by making some really funny faces as they perform. Such an awesome song, one of my favourite songs by Gladys Knight & The Pips.

I Love This Song So Real. a Wonderful mPerformance. FAMILY You Know How we Get When We believe we Have Made IT.

The best!

"Do some fancy struttin'" - haven't heard this in ages, such a gr8 song.

Dancers, class👌

I'm glad to see another generation discovering the '70s and '80s music, including our Mrs. Gladys. Try listening to stuff by Claudja Barry, Carlis Munro (" Boogie Up, Rock Down") and The First Choice and Three Degrees and The Delfonics. Great decades for music...
