Arsen Jaho, the song isnt a " rock ballad." The song is soul music. It's just how the industry marketed it. "Blue eyed soul" artists like Joe and Janis Joplin received accolades and success because they were white people who could imitate black music. Truthfully, their success is a good example of how much racism informs everything in this culture. Black vocalists were singing from a natural resonance but Janis, Joe etal pushed out a throaty gravelly tone. Culture vulture mentality always places white people into genres that are not authentic for them. Rock and Roll artists made millions while the creators of this music remained marginalized and obscure. A good example....how did Elvis become "the King" when he was simply IMITATING black performers who were much better? ( The man who started his career said .....if I could find a white man who could sing and dance like a black man I'd be a millionaire)

@@lillierobinson1786 OK you could consider this song a blue eyed soul. Its usual for Joe to sing a handful of this genre, but i couldnt say that Joe managed very well this kind of music. His voice was harsh and typical rock voice. There were at least 3 artists good in blue eyed soul: Paul Young George Michael and Hall&Oates.

@lydiamangiardi6032

5 ай бұрын

Sure did. You can visually see him transform. As she went higher, he followed. As she looked at him and drew out his spirit, you can see him inspired by her force and rise to the occasion. She sang to the God within him, like we all should play to the God that's within every living thing and play to the best that's in them instead of only seeing their worst. When you get to the point when they start resisting because they are daunted by doubt within them, you hold on and keep drawing it out when they can't surrender to the God that's in themselves. You saw him resisting, but she felt it and fought even harder to draw him out and locked her eyes into him to banish that doubt and jumped and flung her love at him and moved her arms in excitement like a bird flapping her arms in excitement at his soul rising to see it take flight - until they saw it in themselves too and she grabbed him and wouldn't let go. She drew him out and she looked him in the eyes with total love and heard his voice rise out of his soul instead of his lungs and his spirit rose higher and higher with the strength of aliveness and when you saw him stare back into her eyes and his spirit had come alive, he rose up and then matched her force for force and that's when you saw God enter the room and the soul rise up to the rafters and the room became transcendent and love rose up to the rafters. That's the performance I was watching We all saw and felt it change. The smiles on everyone's faces changed to a raw moment of complete love and joy of being alive. The power this woman has to plunge her entire being into a song without doubt or hesitation that she can't do it. It's complete and total surrender to faith. Most people block it by doubt, she runs toward it and surrenders completely to it without hesitation. She's a force that doesn't shy down to faith or doubt. She takes everyone with her. She has what the Spanish call Duande, where the audience, by their support, push her spirit up to another level, and as the performer, rises higher and higher to God, she takes the audience with her to meet Him. That's the most powerful association we can see in a performance. Everyone participates and has a part to play and in the end, we all become One! Powerful, powerful performance!!! This is a woman who not only has a powerful voice, but an indomitable spirit of faith, who draws God on the stage where we not only hear her voice, but we FEEL her voice. God is music and music is God and nobody fights for it better than Ms. Pattie LA Belle - a force to be reckoned with!!!! ❤😢😮😊

Hello Cynthia..

if you were not a Patti LaBelle fan, per say, from back in the day...and had lost track of her 'girl group from the 60s (the Bluebelles) and were never really a LaBelle fan from the 70s, then you probably knew very little to nothing about her solo records between 1977, right on thru the very early 80s. And it was during those years that she REALLY took her talent to another level..earning her stripes, as we say, as a solo act. And thats when my folks started taking me to her concerts whenever she came thru DC or Baltimore..her live shows during that time, were something to behold, because no one had ever seen someone sing so LOUDLY, with so much drama and skill and passion. With all due respect to the Chakas and Arethas...Patti was a one-off, because she could do things with her voice, on the fly, that you just thought were impossible. If Patti had wanted to sing opera, she would've been HUGE...if she had gotten a jump start and really trained herself to do it...because when we would go see her at Warner Theater or the Kennedy Center or Constitution Hall, my Dad would always say after her shows "I dont know if I just saw a soul singer or an opera singer" When this special was being promoted on tv..and we saw the advertisements for it.. and saw that Patti was one of the headliners, I remember my Mother saying to all of us, " we are going to watch that shit, because I know that heffa is going to show her black ass and sing somebody's shoes off!"..and thats EXACTLY what she did.

Now that's what you call singing by REAL MUSICIANS!!!! Joe had a unique voice and Billy played the heck out of that piano!!! Classic!!!

Monica Hunter 100%. Patti was riiiiiight on the edge of a giant comeback. In '82 she went to Broadway with Al Green and got raves for Your Arms Too Short to Box With God. In '83, "Love, Need and Want You" and "If Only You Knew" put her back on R&B radio, and she snagged "New Attitude" and "Stir It Up" on the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack in '84 and got a taste of crossover success. When this special came around in '85, she was raw ambition and starving to reach the top. When she got this, it put most of the eyes in America on her and she wasn't gonna waste it, and tore the throat out of everybody else who stepped to her onstage. You see the clips of her from Motown Returns and she's wailing like she's still waiting to be discovered, pouring it all out. She did Live Aid the same year, and she blew all the way up after those. She got a friggin Emmy nomination after Motown Returns for Outstanding Performer in a Variety Special! MY big question has always been how did this woman who was NEVER on the Motown label (and never was even afterward) and wasn't nearly the biggest star or marquee name in the house that night got THAT many big showcase numbers. I'm pretty sure she logged more screentime than anybody else on the show. She stole the whole damn thing.

Bill Cosby is legally blind and about to go to jail for the rest of his life ... but then there's Patti who, at 73 years old, is alive and kickin', is at the top of her game, and can still sing circles around her contemporaries *and* her protégées!

I’m in tears 😢watching this what an amazing performance by both individuals. ❤❤❤

that Patti is something else.

Have mercy patti did a lot in that moment she sang she danced she preached she kissed the pianist she was possessed she played she fought war omy gosh! She's everything. 😍 😍 😍

patti labelle is a stage beast! so amazing and what a voice!!!!!

Pattie destroyed the stage! What a star and Joe Cocker is legendary. Thanking God that this moment existed!

This STILL gives me chills ❤

I love how Joe knew instinctively to get in where he fit in on his own song. That was amazing!

Her singing totally overwhelmed poor Joe Cocker....

One of the things that's often missed in this performance is Joe's quiet and soulful adlibs where you think "Damn, did he visit a black baptist church on Sundays."

..and more importantly, HE KNEW where to put the ad libs...you cant be up there talking about how beautiful she is, and then out of nowhere, you go into "the hills are alive, with the sound of mu-siccccc!"...Joe was one of those singers that immersed himself in black music and observed from the greats like Charles, Redding and Cooke, what and how to sing, to connect with the listener...and it wasnt a put-on...he knew the subtleties of the ad libs, you mention. Joe was a VERY legit, soul-singer. I miss the guy.

true but lets leave race out of it

I love me some Patti! I also love me some Joe Cocker. When you add Billy Preston on piano, you have an iconic moment. I was a proud young GenXer that got to see this first run on TV. As an adult, I really I witnessed something special!

Billy Preston got his whole life when Patti came out on that stage!!! Was grinning the whole time!!!

Chill bumps within seconds. Absolutely awesome version with Billy Preston playing it his way. I think all the artists were true to themselves. It felt real.
