There is no way a red-blooded human can watch this and not have a HUGE smile afterwards!!! Patti and Joe were like each other's hype-man and Billy Preston was keeping it down at the piano
She's great, but I've seen Joe Cocker on stage all by himself and he knocks this song out of the park - not with the style of laBelle, but with his own very unique style!!!! He kind of made the song what it became with his croaker voice and deep, yet restrained vocal control.
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!!!! ❤😢😮😊
I don't think she necessarily made him work harder she put him in a funny position. And you can bet your life that Billy Preston and Joe cocker will consoling each other about her over singing.. maybe the call writer of that song who is Billy Preston. Even apologized to Joe sorry about Patty stepping all over you words to that effect I'm sure
My dad back in the old days with the blue bells. my father played drums for her she sang perfectly. and I mean perfectly. She's a wonderful person but she got into this over singing!! no doubt about it believe me I'm a musician I know...
HAPPY 79th BIRTHYEAR belatedly (May 24, 2023) TO our INTERNATIONALLY OUTSTANDING GODMOTHER of SOUL, MISS PATTI LABELLE, who had a challenging birthday this year especially with the passing of Sister Rock Legend Tina on the exact same day! 😮 Nonetheless, despite the challenges of life that befall you & us each day, MISS MUSICAL DYNAMITE FASHION ICON PATTI LABELLE THANK YOU for INSPIRING us ALWAYS to WHOLISTICALLY ASPIRE for EXCELLENCE throughout LIFE'S JOURNEY!!!😢 We LOVE ❤U MAMA P!🎉
Yes she does know exactly what she's doing. the music business comes with the music business and the acting business ego is a part of.. some have it in total control some don't. She came out n instantly oversinging stepping on Joe from the very first note. Can you tell me where you ever heard of duet like that.. after a while she wasn't even singing words.. she was just holding notes.. that is not the way it goes
It's equivalent to the Star spangled banner being sung by someone who knows how to sing it at a nice quick tempo or someone who drags it out and thinks it's about them
Which nowadays 90% of the time it's sung wrong.. the only artist I saw singing right with Billy Joel and Huey Lewis and the News.. n Ella Fitzgerald one of the greatest singers of all time.. now she can get on a roll but she knows how to do it and when to do it
Ella Fitzgerald is one of the greatest ass singers of all time she could tear anything up she can overseeing way more and way better than Patty I know it is very unprofessional to compare I'm just trying to make you understand... Got a person like Ella knows when to go out there and when not to
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.
This is a very special & beautiful song to me. My husband surprised me when we got married. He actually sung this song to me. I don’t care who wrote it nor who sings it. It’s a classic. Love!! Love!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
YES SIR HE REALLY KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING AND MAGNIFICENT AND PROFESIONALLY DEAL WITH ALL THE SOMETIMES CRAZY BELT OUTS OF MIRS PATTI ANOTHER ONE WOULD HAVE LOST HES THE BEST DEFINITLY
Joe didn't give a shit, he kept time with his arms, everyone else had to follow him USUALLY, watch Jennifer Werner sing "Up where we belong" with him, she has to look at his mouth to stay in time, here Patti just dd the same damn thing to Joe, he had to watch her gyrations, LMAO, he didn't mind, he was used to it anyway.
Only woman i know that can take 5 words and make it last 5 minutes...whew😱 we miss you Joe❤ take a listen to the best is yet to come. Never heard anyone hold a note like that and live to tell about❤
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.
This is simply gut wrenching soul........two people pushing each other to sing from the heart. Patti's soaring vocals and Joe's raspy growl were complimentary in the best possible way........loved it.
Fun Fact: Ms. Labelle was nominated for an Prime Time Emmy Award for this performance. (Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program)
Not this performance. She was nominated for her performance of "You'll Never Walk Alone. Also, this is a duet, so it can't be nominated as an individual performance, but thank you for bringing attention to this fantastic achievement. She lost to Angela Lansbury's performance of Sweeny Todd, which is a travesty of justice.
@@WMichael1711and these two performances from Patti got her a short lived TV show “Out All Night” (or was it “Up All Night” 🧐) with Vivica A Fox portraying Patti LaBelle’s daughter. Morris Chestnut and Duane Martin were on it too
@@Criscilla241 From this performance, she got her own show, entitled the Patti Labelle Show back in 1985. She does a fantastic duet with Cyndi Lauper and ascends the stairs as a closer, singing "Over the Rainbow." Her short-lived show, which you mentioned, is called "Out All Night. " It lasted one season from 1992 to 1993. Thank you for mentioning them. I love all things that honor Patti Labelle. You must be a fan from way back in the day.
People like Sarah Vaughan Ella Fitzgerald. They don't step on people they know when to let go when to keep it under control they know when to explode... I will give you an analogy.. in music there is something called Dynamics. Have you come out singing like it's the encore where are you going to go from there explanation point that's like a guitar player starting with his amp on 10! How do you go up when the Dynamics call for it you're already there there's no place else to go no Dynamics no building no story.. I'm in the music business 40 years and 75% of my constituents agree.. and the ones who don't it's just sour grapes
I wish today was like it was back then where it was ok to be in your 40s and still be on top and loved by everyone musically. Today, all we get is kids dancing half naked and talentless singers.
tasiawood FUCKING YESS !!! People back in the day were still out and famous in their 40s 50s but you wanna know why ? BECAUSE PEOPLE BACK IN THE DAY SANG !! Everyone only wanted people who SANG but now everyone likes to be entertained but by people who sing with fireworks dancing and flipping all these costumes and barely saying any words
You said it!! Most of the people I care about are senior citizens now or if they are younger, they don't follow the pop formula so they don't get much attention.
It was a gift to see Patti LaBelle live in concert never got to see Joe Cocker though I was really sad my dad grew up with Joe Cocker and recently passed away of the coronavirus thanks Trump card you got a lot of blood 🩸 on your hands you’ll rotten hell
Patti is the ultimate show,, she is a team leader,, makes everybody SHINE,,,I love Mr. Joe C. His voice was so unusual, but with plenty of soul, and pure to me,,,,
Can we talk about Patti LaBelle's hair? I was in awe of it then. It's defying gravity like the performance! God bless Billy Preston's talented writing, masterful piano and Joe Cocker's gravelly, classic, delivery. THIS was SO BEAUTIFUL.. to me 😏
My mother brought me along with her to Patti Labelle concert at a time when I didn't know much about her. I wasn't a fan at all but let me tell you - when I saw this woman come on stage with just a mic in her hand pouring her heart and soul in every single note and in of her body, she instantly gained a life long fan! Her concerts are like some awe-inspiring revelation! She's earned every right to be an icon and legend!
Being so closed to the Apollo in from Brooklyn, N.Y., Tropicana, Havana, Cuba, La Princesa in Acapulco, Mex., and Caesar Palace in La Vegas, USA, for M. Ali fight. For my Birthday(70's) , I will look at the Blue Sky and smile in my appreciation, to The King, Lord God for being alive. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Lord God.
So, so true this was a match I could have never imagined but somehow it crushed me. what a performance! The way the music moves through both of them is just amazing to watch !
Patty is a wonderful singer a wonderful singer. Back when she didn oversing ridiculouslyI I went to see her all the time with my dad behind her on drums
The musicians in the band with joke about her over singing have a drink in the hotel room and she was the butt of the joke because she just got ridiculous
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.
I love. Joe I cry when I listen to him , he and patti were crafted with the same soul. Power is truly I gift not handed down on this level to many. Had me crying like a baby !!!
THAT IS WHAT YOU CALL BRINGING IT. When I hear folks say some of these talentless acts nowadays “brought it,” I refer them to this clip. This is the epitome of Bringing It and in less than 4 minutes!!!!!!!
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!
Affetto, professionalità, passione....tutto questo in pochi minuti....un infarto al cuore per chi percepisce tutto questo vedendo e sentendo questi diamanti
I thank God for living to see such beauty and masterpiece in the voice of these music icons, not to mention the geniality of Billy Preston. Simply stupendous
I feel like shoutin every time I here this. Miss P lays it down! Love Joe cocker too. Classic!!! OMG I forgot to mention my undying love for the one and the only Mr. Billy Preston!!!
My late husband and I attended Patti's concerts in Atlantic City, always to our great delight. Watching this video made me SMILE to see you and the brilliant Joe Cocker on this soaring ride. I must say that if my Love was beside me watching - He'd have been whoopin' and stompin' . Man. (luv you, Doo.) Made my day
Still a Beautiful song! This song gets to your core. Blessing to Joe Cocker. Patti Labelle & Billy Preston. Joe Cocker & Billy Preston rest in peace. LOVE LOVE

Will never be like this anymore
I do not care how many times I watch this… A superior performance like this never gets old.
Y'all Better Sing Love it
I AGREE EACH TIME I PLAY IT I THANK GOD FOR THEIR TALENT
BRILLIANT DUET OF SUCH CONTRASTING SINGING STYES❤❤ MUSIC 🎷🎶
So miss that we don’t have great music like this anymore.
that Patti is something else.
Pure talent!... Billy Preston composed that master piece, but nobody can´t sing that song like Joe... MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE!
GIRL BYE!
There is no way a red-blooded human can watch this and not have a HUGE smile afterwards!!! Patti and Joe were like each other's hype-man and Billy Preston was keeping it down at the piano
🫠
Legends gathered to entertain and make beautiful memories
Having Patti on stage made him elevate this song and work harder. I love it.
She's great, but I've seen Joe Cocker on stage all by himself and he knocks this song out of the park - not with the style of laBelle, but with his own very unique style!!!! He kind of made the song what it became with his croaker voice and deep, yet restrained vocal control.

Stop it people....Joe knew what he was in for. He handle it magnificently and he handle it....hats off to you Joe!
Gregory C / Well said, couldn't have been stated any better, I totally agree 100%👌👌
Gregory C that was Joe, BRAVO JOE BRAVO
YES SIR HE REALLY KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING AND MAGNIFICENT AND PROFESIONALLY DEAL WITH ALL THE SOMETIMES CRAZY BELT OUTS OF MIRS PATTI ANOTHER ONE WOULD HAVE LOST HES THE BEST DEFINITLY
MY GOD I WONDER IF SHE WAS DOING DRUGS AT THE MOMENT WAS TOO MUCH AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY OT OF CONTROL
Joe didn't give a shit, he kept time with his arms, everyone else had to follow him USUALLY, watch Jennifer Werner sing "Up where we belong" with him, she has to look at his mouth to stay in time, here Patti just dd the same damn thing to Joe, he had to watch her gyrations, LMAO, he didn't mind, he was used to it anyway.
OMG. I LOVE PATTI LaBELLE....SO AWESOME. AMAMZING
Joe had a full head of hair before he started rehearsing with Patti. She blew most of it off with some of those notes. Bloody hell! The power!
Patti Labelle was grossly underappreciated. What an amazing talent! She should have stood with Aretha at the least. Crazy talent, this woman.
I agree,she was better than Aretha and Whitney.Jennifer Holiday too.
She was appreciated.
She was very appreciated if you were old enough to see it.
Was....she's still alive
She is one of the most respected singers ever!
This is awesome. Joe Cocker, Billy Preston, and Patti Labelle - beautiful gifts from God.
What an amazing performance. I never would have imagined them together, but WOW did they ever create magic!
Thank you Billy Preston, without you none of this would be. Wonderful performance!
Only woman i know that can take 5 words and make it last 5 minutes...whew😱 we miss you Joe❤ take a listen to the best is yet to come. Never heard anyone hold a note like that and live to tell about❤

Absolutely is 💯.

Patti takes all of her songs to Church. Such feeling...👋❤️
Ain’t it the truth ❤️❤️
lol, yes. All we are missing is a praise Jesus.
Patties voice is a super natural super power against anything negative!!!!❤❤❤
Her and Jennifer Holiday were the most powerful vocally.
magnificent performance by all !! Billy was grand on Piano, Joe was the bass and Patti the soprano, like bread, butter and coffee !!! Goose bumps
Yes bro
Billy?
Did I smoke too much pot again?
Smmfh very well said and so True.!!🎤🎼👍
Preston wrote the song.
Let's not forget Billy Preston. He was ultra talented, may he R.I.P.

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!!!
P a t t i oversang ridiculously... When she was with the Blue Bells she did not do that she sang perfectly...
I mean I can't believe only a few people read Joe's face
I'm a musician for 40 years and believe me when I tell you Joe was embarrassed for her

RIP Mr Cocker. This moment will live forever and still gives me goosebumps ...
Me too
yes indeed
прям в точку
This is too beautiful. Patti, Joe, and Billy, you all are so beautiful to me.
patti labelle is a stage beast! so amazing and what a voice!!!!!
Fuckin right! LOl
😂 she pushed him to another level but he held hiz own!!!!😂😂😊
Seriously. One of the best thing I have ever seen.
Joe and Patti tore that song up they both sang their behinds off. As my Mother used to say Patti LaBelle is a show all by herself.
I wish today was like it was back then where it was ok to be in your 40s and still be on top and loved by everyone musically. Today, all we get is kids dancing half naked and talentless singers.

YES!!!!!
You said it!! Most of the people I care about are senior citizens now or if they are younger, they don't follow the pop formula so they don't get much attention.
tasiawood ain't that the truth!?
30 plus years hence and this STILL gives me goosebumps....
nockanoo62 yes. Patti on stage antics can never be duplicated
This is what happens when angels sing.
It was a gift to see Patti LaBelle live in concert never got to see Joe Cocker though I was really sad my dad grew up with Joe Cocker and recently passed away of the coronavirus thanks Trump card you got a lot of blood 🩸 on your hands you’ll rotten hell
I have this on a vhs cassette. Whew!!
U can see Joe getting em at the first sound of Patti's voice
They killed that!!!!!!Gives you chills🥰
Actually she killed it, the mic and Audio Engineer that is.
We had recorded this on VHS n watched it a million times. 🙏Epic!
3 legends at the peak of their powers
Two completely different artist yet respected each others talents on stage. Beautiful music!
J. Dale Smith that's right
SHE CREAMED HIS BUTT
👊👏
They were not that different.. they were both screamers!
@@LifeJourneyful It’s a competition? I thought she laid it on way too thick. They’re supposed to be singing together.
This is not singing, it's beyond and above, it's soulfood and glorious riches unknown, Wow it's Beautiful 💯👌
It is SANGIN
Patti is the ultimate show,, she is a team leader,, makes everybody SHINE,,,I love Mr. Joe C. His voice was so unusual, but with plenty of soul, and pure to me,,,,
If you can hang with Patti - you got it going on!!!
For me she alittle just alittle to much. Got to love her.
Ok, but commas are not supposed to be i groups, full stops are-
You're so right! His voice was so magnetic! I love him too! Ms Pattie is my fav! And Billie was ON IT, too! Great performance it was! 👏🏾
JOE COKER ESTUPENDO GRANNNNNDEEEEEE
Can we talk about Patti LaBelle's hair? I was in awe of it then. It's defying gravity like the performance! God bless Billy Preston's talented writing, masterful piano and Joe Cocker's gravelly, classic, delivery. THIS was SO BEAUTIFUL.. to me 😏
Two Legends. A Lady and a Gentleman.
RIP Mr. Cocker. 💖
3 Legends,Don't Forget Billy Preston On Piano,He Actually Wrote The Song.
My mother brought me along with her to Patti Labelle concert at a time when I didn't know much about her. I wasn't a fan at all but let me tell you - when I saw this woman come on stage with just a mic in her hand pouring her heart and soul in every single note and in of her body, she instantly gained a life long fan! Her concerts are like some awe-inspiring revelation! She's earned every right to be an icon and legend!
True!
ABB a.k.a. AstralBooBaby I went to a show earlier this year and even at her age a decline in voice it was still a show!
This was the performance that made me fall all the way in love with patti
Being so closed to the Apollo in from Brooklyn, N.Y., Tropicana, Havana, Cuba, La Princesa in Acapulco, Mex., and Caesar Palace in La Vegas, USA, for M. Ali fight. For my Birthday(70's) , I will look at the Blue Sky and smile in my appreciation, to The King, Lord God for being alive.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Lord God.
She makes me cry
All these people on stage are a FORCE to be reckoned with...awesome
So, so true
this was a match I could have never imagined but somehow it crushed me.
what a performance!
The way the music moves through both of them is just amazing to watch !
Wow… Joes raspy/growly bluesy voice alongside Patti’s soaring vocals is pure magic. ❤❤❤
Patti is always so extra... Love her to bits.
She was before her time. Love her.
Patti came out with that "HIGH NOTE" had Joe Cocker trembling in his shoes as well as me.....
I hate to disagree with you but after a while Joe was saying to himself I wish you would stop she's embarrassing me.. joe did not tremble for anyone
He was a good sport about it
Patty is a wonderful singer a wonderful singer. Back when she didn oversing ridiculouslyI I went to see her all the time with my dad behind her on drums
The musicians in the band with joke about her over singing have a drink in the hotel room and she was the butt of the joke because she just got ridiculous
Patti is a powerhouse all by herself and RIP Mr. Joe Cocker. Thanks for everything. You were truly wonderful - and beautiful.
Joe was a bit nervous with powerful
Atti
What a powerful voice.
I taped this show and wore it out playing these moments over and over. I showed to everyone I could. I think I brought people off the street to watch.
Sheesh! Patti Labelle,...what a voice. Love Joe. Love Billy Preston. But what a voice. Wow!
I needed a “pick me up” today and I got what I needed!!!!!
Look at Billy’s face when Patti was singing!!!!!! I LIVE!!!!!
I love Joe Cockers voice ,Patti Labelle oh my gosh ..... so so great and Billy Preston
Talent,spirit , love , power
Ya those were the days
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.
Rodney Medlin Billy Preston wrote & recorded the song originally but Joe's version 💖
I swear Patti makes you catch the spirit EVERY TIME! Still one of my favorite performances.
Erytime!
We will never see another soul or voice like Patti and Whitney evet
I love. Joe I cry when I listen to him , he and patti were crafted with the same soul. Power is truly I gift not handed down on this level to many. Had me crying like a baby !!!
This is what it's about. This is the music we all need. Love those three
Why some people don't like the way Patti LaBelle sing? It doesn't matter, she is one of my favorites!

What in the world have I just witnessed! The most magical moment ever!
When Music knew no bounds but touched everyone all the time .

Billy Preston was the only musician to be on the payroll for both The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Now you know!
THAT IS WHAT YOU CALL BRINGING IT. When I hear folks say some of these talentless acts nowadays “brought it,” I refer them to this clip. This is the epitome of Bringing It and in less than 4 minutes!!!!!!!
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!
Affetto, professionalità, passione....tutto questo in pochi minuti....un infarto al cuore per chi percepisce tutto questo vedendo e sentendo questi diamanti
I’m in tears 😢watching this what an amazing performance by both individuals. ❤❤❤
I thank God for living to see such beauty and masterpiece in the voice of these music icons, not to mention the geniality of Billy Preston. Simply stupendous
Woo! Gone are the days of claszy, classic artists just bringing down the house! *Tears*
I love it when she says "siiing Joe" as they both singing their behinds off .
ONLY PATTI LABELLE could turn "You Are So Beautiful" into a chu'uch song. Not merely "church". CHU'UCH!!!
