Here is a poll for you.:) Tell me, what is your favorite song by Gladys Knight & the Pips?

Midnight Train To Georgia.

Favorite Motown song: Neither One of Us
Favorite Buddah song: Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me
Favorite Columbia song: You're Number One In My Book
Favorite MCA song: Love Overboard
Favorite song I didn't mention yet: The Makings of You

Midnight Train to Georgia

Strong as Steel

Everything!

I love Gladys, she is so underrated in the music world. She is so much better than Diana Ross and Patti La Bell, and she never acted like a diva or that the world owed her something.

Since this is a poll I will go ahead and pick, what I think is such a better version of an original song by Barbara Streisand "The Way We Were." My other favorite song that you didn't list is "Mr. Welfare," but the whole Claudine soundtrack with Gladys and the Pips singing on it is great.

If you have never heard this version you should.

Those are all favorites of mine also! Especially "You're Number One (In My Book)" & "Love Overboard." My two other favorites are "Baby Don't Change Your Mind" & "Save the Overtime for Me" :cool:

Midnight Train to Georgia :rock:

Now this is a group that had it going on! Midnight Train to Georgia is their biggest hit and deservedly so, it's my all time favorite. I also like You're #1 a lot as well as I Will Fight and Best Thing that Ever Happened. I think when a group has good relations among the members (in this case they are all blood related) it comes through in some very fine performances. They weren't on ego trips and Gladys sure doesn't come off like some diva unlike Diana Ross or Patti Labelle or Whitney Houston.

Released January 14, 2003. I know because I was waiting for it and bought it the day it came out. One major reason I love that movie so much is because of the music from Gladys & The Pips/Curtis Mayfield.

Mr. Welfare. Save The Overtime For Me is tight too.

Save The Overtime For Me, Your #1 In My Book, When Your Far Away, Love Overboard, I've Got To Use My Imagination. Is Gladys Knight & The Pips from Atlanta, Georgia?

"Midnight Train To Georgia" by a wide margin! :)

(Remember Albert Brooks singing it in Broadcast News?)

I don't know if they're from Atlanta, but they're definitely from Georgia!

("Midnight Train To Georgia" was originally written as "Midnight Plane To Houston!" :eek: )

They are Atlanta natives.

You haven't heard them in a long time because the government apparently passed a law banning non-satellite radio from playing anything recorded before 1982. :mad:

Ya probably........

But we have an AM station here that plays 50s-70s so it will probably be there if anywhere....
