Gladys Knight won the Super Bowl tonight. She is one of our very best singers, as good as Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, any superstar (even our late great Aretha). She should have a Kennedy Center honor already.
Watch her sing the National Anthem from tonight’s game. This is maybe the best version ever outside of Whitney Houston. We must all thank her for grace and eloquence. And that voice!
PS I hope she’s featured on CBS’s Motown 60 special taping next week. Gladys had MONSTER hits on Motown from 1968 to 1973 including “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” and “Neither One of Us.”
