- My tribute to Gladys Knight. Originally recorded by Curtis Mayfield, Gladys Knight recorded this for the "Claudine" soundtrack. I recorded this for my father's (Syl Johnson) upcoming project with an orchestra of over 20 musicians. I hope it captures you as much as it captured me.
Thanks so much for all the compliments and please share this video if you enjoy it. My father and I are wrapping up the recordings for this project. Taking it back to the original sound of soul :)
SyleenaJohnson love you lady
Wow! Super nice version...Anything out for 2019-20..We need some soul?
I am big fan of your father and never knew you but I am much, much, much and much more than impressed. Thank you.
Syleena has such a underrated soulful voice & this rendition expresses just that, SOUL.
Truly
Syleena sang this song absolutely beautifully. You can hear how moved she is by it. No one sang it better than Curtis for me, but I'd put her version damn close, and I think he would be greatly moved to see how far his music has come and will continue to go.
Amazing voice! Jesus loves you Syleena!❤️
Bravo! Well done.... Curtis Mayfield would be proud. Very soulful & I like you sped it up.
Sing Syleena!
LADY!!!! you BAD!!!! that is a song forreal!!!
Syleena, I have been a fan of yours since 2002. You have an amazing voice and it is comparable to legends before!!! I feel, in my opinion that yourself and Lauryn Hill have done justice to this song. It is just mellifluous... incredible job!
I love how she remade this!!
A beautiful tribute to the Legendary Ms. Gladys Knight, whose so well deserving of this
long awaiting award. Syleena, your voice is so magical Ms. Gladys has to be so very
proud of you, you are one beautiful R & B Diva. I thank God we still have singers like
you around who knows how to put it down sista', you can SANG. you are so astonishing
I like to say R.I.P... to Mr. Curtis Mayfield who wrote and produce this lovely song.
Syleena, this is one of my favorite songs in the world. A lot of singers have covered it Aretha, Lauryn, Angie and now you. Good job, Syleena. You kept the delicate nature of this song. Great cover, Mama!!!!!
The prettiest ever made!
I've always adored this song, and you've sung it 'very well' sista'.
Picked the perfect person to tribute - love real music
she killed it
Omg! This is the BEST tribute song ever! Syleena girl you should have performed the tribute at the soul train music awards..
Selena, just purchased the CD and after hearing had to research. This is in the SPRITUAL REALM!!!
Not everyone can pull this song off! Your in a special class.....I love your work, and thinkyou would do some good covers of some older artist works??????
I came on here looking for the Gladys Knight version and found this on a humbug. Ironically "little things" was playing when I saw it. Love your voice, luv your music.
i love this
Beautiful Syleena!
Love this!
Syleena! I love this reading!! I loved this song ever since the Father bought the 8-track for our family vacation drive to Disney World. Go ahead Girl!!!!!
Sorry about the spelling of Syleena's name, spell check changed it without me catching it!!!
This is wonderful!
Love her!
You sound good girl keep doing your thing!
Nice!!
Me and my bff were so NOT happy with that tribute to Gladys, not to take anything away from those ladies, we felt they needed singers like yourself on that stage! U got 2 go all out 4 her! Some singers may not have even been available, but then I see Jill Scott in the audience! SMH! Seriously? You, Faith, Keke Wyatt,Lalah,Anita,Ledisi,Angie Stone,Fantasia, would have been some of my picks, anyway you sound beautiful! Your voice is special real music lovers know that if ur on the awards or not!
