I can't get enough of this song! TONY Thompson's drumming is fantastic here! His splashes are on the 3 in the verses! The song is just so orchestral and ...alive! So gooood!
I haven't heard this song in a while, I've always liked Diana Ross. She is one of the best singers in the world, I love her voice and her style.🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍👏👏
This seemed like the next big hit from her huge "Diana" album, but US pop playlists were cool to the track and it only "bubbled under" the Hot 100. The UK got it right and this song peaked in the top 5 there. Always wonderful to hear this song.
Motown didn't release it until December 1981, not 1980, which is when it should have been. They missed the opportunity big time. Instead, it was issued when it was to promote "All The Great Hits", and the single sleeve read "The song that was #1 in England!!" Which also wasn't really accurate because it hit #5 in the U.K. (Which technically isn't England lol) So, "My Old Piano" was released a week ahead of Diana's 2nd RCA single "Mirror, Mirror' and was in direct competition with it. :) Agree that the diana lp could have easily launched 2 more singles into the Top 40, possibily even Top 10!

People under value the exquisite vocal phrasing in this gem. She made it sound easy but it aint. Nile Rodger's guitar on this and Give Up on the same CD/LP is his best solo playing IMO. Bernard Edwards laid down the best bass foundations I've ever heard and for me not easy to learn.
Just about remember it as a kid on the radio in my dads old blue austin mini van music from a better time and era in this hard life! But i wish I could go back in a time machine and relive these magical times of the late 70s early 1980s 🥳🥳🥳
Yep and that Bass line belongs to Bernard Edwards the other half of the Hit Factory. Nile's distinctive rift on lead and Bernard's thumping bass line. These two are musical legends
Listened to this on the beach in Corfu,1980,on the old cassette player.Sun and ouzo,and with my now wife.Hey what happened to those 40 yrs .Love the memories.
As magical as her voice is on this, there's another level of musical perfection 2:58...shame it cuts off because the Piano (male) and Guitar (female) have a very personal conversation. Just amazing.
Magical, really captured the time and place. We used to get the American artists 6 months after it was released but it did not stop the enjoyment. Loved this song to bits.
I almost forgot how beautiful and cool Diana was. This has to be the cheapest video ever created yet she just keeps your full attention while taking your breath away all at the same time and damn the song is simply fire.
@@GenXXXX70 I think EMI UK asked her to do this when she was over in London and - yeah done on the cheap - but resulted in a top ten hit in the UK & Australia. Imagine how big Upside Down, I'm Coming Out & Tenderness could have been with decent music videos!
This is the PERFECT example of 100% CLASS !!! Where did music go wrong? Too bad today's musicians and songwriters didn't follow Diana's example. I believe she had a flawless career from her days with the Supreme s through her solo career. And then she was gone?? :( I hope she enjoying her much deserved retirement.
Patrick O'Connor, Diana has not retired. She tours constantly, playing at packed houses throughout the world. Recording is a different story, however. She would like to do another studio album, but is having difficulty figuring out where she fits in today's marketplace.
Great track from the Unique Ms Diana Ross. Loved her since Touch me in the morning. Her synth classic ‘Lovin livin & givin’ with Giorgio Moroder criminally ignored. Your fan forever 🥰
MIJAS SPOT, OH,.HOW I MISS MOTOWN! REMEMNER "SOUL TRAIN"? AH, THE GOOD OLD DAYS! PUT ME IN A TIME MACHINE AND TAKE ME BACK TO THE 1970'S! BLACK MUSIC AND WHITE MUSIC WERE THE BEST BACK THEN, MAN! CAN YOU DIG IT? I KNEW THAT YOU COULD! ☮️
If I could write lyrics, I would write a song for my piano cuz I love him so much! I guess you guys are wondering why I called my piano a him? Because I named him after my favorite and GREATEST piano and solo singer of MINE! I'd rather not say his name; as, it's between my piana & me, no disrespect, folks! I ❤ My piano! ☮️
Only just heard this song driving from Holland to the UK on some Belgium radio station in the car MNM Fm. Love its timeless clean sound. Now saved as one of my favourites!
One of the most underrated songs of all time. Diana's voice is flawless. P.S. What a beautiful and classy woman!
This my jam
Beautiful Diana Ross was one among the pin ups and this lady is an artist 44 years ago she was in Maxim's Paris grande classe

That bass by Bernard is Heavenly!
Killer bass. Love it.

Really I noticed how sophisticated the musician's play is on this track.
bass is good too!

It's the strings for me!
The bass in this is unreal.
Killer groove on it 👌👌👊👊
Bernard Edwards
Literally walking through a Tesco in West Yorkshire (UK) and I hear this playing. Never heard it before so Shazam'd it and here we are! TUNE!!!

Oh my What a jam!
And still 2024..
AWESOME! 🎶
I TRULY LOVE THIS SONG 😂😭🥰 I remember my dad playing this masterpiece every Sunday on our way to church. Good times ✨ blessings everyone !
Diana Ross: The only person who can sing and dance with an old piano and still it sounds GREAT
This song still goes in 40 years later 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
You forgot the mark&Clark band m8!
Worn down piano is a masterpiece like this!
listing to this song i was shaking it with my hoover
its giving lady gaga
@@leiamarylogin kill yourself
Diana killed this!!🔥🔥🔥 Along with Rogers and Edwards.🕺
3 talented people
Grandissima DIANA...Canzone STUPENDA ...❤️❤️❤️👍
The video maker highlighting the piano chords while an organ Hammond riffs, it's amazing 😂😂
Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, the Lennon / McCartneys of Funky Disco. Another one of their uncountable masterworks.
One of the greatest Superstars that ever lived, until today she stands alone in her own right 👍💪🏾
Still my jam. The elegance as she moves is just so easy to watch. Love Diana!
This is really one of my fav songs.
I heard this song today for the first time..
How i ever has missed this song..
ugh, the love i have for this woman and this song, it’s out of this world
If youre having a Bad day
This song makes you turn on the inner positive vibrations ❤️
At the mail centre in England and this tune is lifting spirits of the posties. 😊🏴❤️
Wow, her smile. She just exudes charisma.
I haven't heard this song in a while, I've always liked Diana Ross. She is one of the best singers in the world, I love her voice and her style.🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍👏👏
Love the bass on this song this song will always be one of my favourites x
She is gorgeous and this is one of her best!!!!
Diana Ross is always gorgeous!
Super song and magic Diana!
Underated funky Diana Ross tune! Such a great voice!

should've been "Tenderness" here.

@@iantuition Another great choice! I would have re-edited the single to put the fantastic extended disco break back in.

Absolute classic by Miss beautiful Diana Ross.
Perhaps her best track .. her liquid like voice just perfect with these light as air lyrics and tempo
Love Diana Ross, such talent, such glamour, such class.
Who else is watching in 2022? Only Diana Ross can make a song about an old piano and be cooler than ever with her spinning dance
People under value the exquisite vocal phrasing in this gem. She made it sound easy but it aint. Nile Rodger's guitar on this and Give Up on the same CD/LP is his best solo playing IMO. Bernard Edwards laid down the best bass foundations I've ever heard and for me not easy to learn.
Masterpiece
why is that high note between the singing so perfect.
Best Diana Ross song
Produced by chic
I love
Jeremy Barfour-Awuah so Bernard Edwards on bass and Nile Rodgers on guitar involved? Didn’t know that!
The Rodgers-Edwards brilliance comes shining right through this one
4 real though
True
1980! Lots of different kinds of music around. I like this one! Wish I could go back :(
That Nile Rodgers sound is instantly recognisable ❤ what a tune though, massively underrated in my opinion 🤗
Just found dis in 2023 and still oozes coolness I suppose class dnt go out of fashion always loved diana ross❤❤
Man what a lucky piano.
Diana can press my keys anytime
Much more delightful than my old piano teacher!
🤣🤣🤣
Bernard Edwards est et était un bassiste fabuleux !!!
Why is this rarely played on the radio??? What a banger!!! 😀😀😀
Just about remember it as a kid on the radio in my dads old blue austin mini van music from a better time and era in this hard life! But i wish I could go back in a time machine and relive these magical times of the late 70s early 1980s 🥳🥳🥳
SWEET!I still rock the shit out of this beautiful song today!Diana is pure class,a cut above the rest,this is why she will always be 'The Boss!'💖💖
Yep and that Bass line belongs to Bernard Edwards the other half of the Hit Factory. Nile's distinctive rift on lead and Bernard's thumping bass line. These two are musical legends
I love this song! ❤
sounding as fresh as ever....beautiful haunting tune with a great Diana!
Excellent masterpiece by The late Bernard Edwards
Nile Rodgers
I love this song. I could listen to it all day long. It reminds me of my high school days . Her voice is so captivating
Not one of my favorites of hers but look I’m here. She’s my favorite. No auto tone nothing but what God gave her. Yes
Listened to this on the beach in Corfu,1980,on the old cassette player.Sun and ouzo,and with my now wife.Hey what happened to those 40 yrs .Love the memories.
I love this music tribute Motown and diana ross the queen
Love this song..And Love Diana..She had hits through many genres
Great song. Wish there was more piano lol.
As magical as her voice is on this, there's another level of musical perfection 2:58...shame it cuts off because the Piano (male) and Guitar (female) have a very personal conversation. Just amazing.

Diana Ross + Chic = Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!
Evergreen and irresistibly sweet sing...vintage Diana.
A song about nothing yet one of the best songs ever. Almost perfect and it's lack of perfection makes it better.
Magical, really captured the time and place. We used to get the American artists 6 months after it was released but it did not stop the enjoyment. Loved this song to bits.
The creativeness of this song is great!
This song brings four decades back i was 12 y.o and and always had my little transistor on my pillow...what great memories...
I almost forgot how beautiful and cool Diana was. This has to be the cheapest video ever created yet she just keeps your full attention while taking your breath away all at the same time and damn the song is simply fire.
Lol.....i agree

My favourite Diana Ross song!
The Nile Rodgers riff & the Bernard Edwards base are genius. That's the survival of Disco (= Funk) right there... ;)
This is one of my 2 top songs by Diana Ross , the other is Not over you yet !
Yes! 'Not Over You Yet' is a totally underrated Diana Ross track!
This song still plays at the top clubs in Cape Town
Boss
Hawu! I was there 2 weeks ago 😂
I’m coming to Cape Town soon, I hope I can get bummed there
Der Song bringt sogar mich steifen,alten Bauern zum schwingen und singen!!
Great tune from chic producers

This is my favourite DR song, even eclipses Upside down, which is a monster hit as well, what an absolute goddess she is.
Great track from the Unique Ms Diana Ross. Loved her since Touch me in the morning. Her synth classic ‘Lovin livin & givin’ with Giorgio Moroder criminally ignored. Your fan forever 🥰
Prime Diana.. What an Album.. One of the best put together for me..
Great song and one of the best from Diana Ross in which this song was out when I was a baby. Love hearing songs from my era. She's a great singer.
Timeless classic.
Excellent, fantastique, sublime 😍
The song is about an old piano but the guitar on the verses is what has me hooked.
The song is actually cleverly written. It's not about a piano, but about men that she's been seeing, all described in the perfect metaphor!
This lady is absolute royalty.
Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards are legends. Not in any way taking anything from Diana who is a Queen in all fronts as well!
I've always thought Jam and Lewis was the best duo ever. But man, after researching the work of Rodgers and Edwards, it's a toss-up at least.
They killed this 🔥🔥🔥🕺
A brilliant song. Takes me back to yearning after Ann Meekie dressed as a Flapper girl at a Clydebank High school disco.
I love the compressed and clipped sounding treble in this recording!
Have kept on vinyl for years. My favorite Ms. Ross.
The most amazing track ever
Brilliant...this music makes your day good
Just love this. Beautiful bass and funk.
Reminds of a fun fair speedway when this tune was playing as we were going round!
oh lord ... every time i hear this my inside fills with love & happiness!!
I MISS MOTOWN and all its great artist! Much ♥ to beautiful DIANA
MIJAS SPOT, OH,.HOW I MISS MOTOWN! REMEMNER "SOUL TRAIN"? AH, THE GOOD OLD DAYS! PUT ME IN A TIME MACHINE AND TAKE ME BACK TO THE 1970'S! BLACK MUSIC AND WHITE MUSIC WERE THE BEST BACK THEN, MAN! CAN YOU DIG IT? I KNEW THAT YOU COULD! ☮️
awesome music. love the sound. love that electronic toot sound at 0:54 and throughout the song.
can you imagine someone writing a love song for a piano these days?.....
Omri Arbely good
More likely a love song for their mobile phone.

Excellent ! Le charme de Diana Ross...
i was 10 years old i love this song (i'am 45 years now
marcelbreda56 do you still love this song marcel? Or just when you were 10? Tessa x
marcelbreda56 me too!!!
same here, loved it then too
same here from France and I am still listening to it and discovering the video thanks to you ! Good memories of the 80's and of my parents.
marcelbreda56: I was only 5, but clearly remember my parents had it on a cassette...
Oh boy,forgotten how much I loved this.
This is hands down one of the oddest subject choices of any pop song, ever. And it’s perfect.
It's not though. The subject is about her having fun with an old flame, and her other flame being jealous. It's just sung in metaphors!
What a stupid comment it’s not odd at all!!
Another Niles Rogers / Bernard Edwards (Chic) masterpiece.
Tomjons
Only just heard this song driving from Holland to the UK on some Belgium radio station in the car MNM Fm. Love its timeless clean sound. Now saved as one of my favourites!
2019 anybody ? 🇿🇦🔥♥️
This song never gets old. A true classic!
Jy south africa represent ❤
2020...my girl my album, my song!!! Ya heard???
@@breaagainsttheworld1959 y e s!!! Loved this album
2020!
Absolutely awesome. Never heard this until today and I cannot understand how I've never heard it before. Its very good!
I think this is 1 of the best songs ever written. 3 verses and a chores about a piano.
love the late seventies ,early eighties soul ,funk,disco,jazz funk, jazz fusion boogie
greatest era of soul funk disco
rip
That twirl she does at 2:20 is everything
Miss Diana don't come to play
Right?!?!
she sure loves that old piano
Beautiful warm sound, gentle tunes and great voice of Diana Ross!!!
Happy 80;yh Ms Ross!
Chic Organisation and Diana, absolute Gold.
I was born in the mid 80s and this is fucking amazing.
Seriously: the video, the song, the background music.
Looks so simple and genuine.
