Back in the mid/late 1970s there was a new singer entering and making her mark in the rock music arena and that singer was Chaka Khan!
When you watch this video, you will be watching the official music video for Chaka Khan - "I'm Every Woman" from the album 'Chaka' (1978). "I'm Every Woman" was her debut solo single and first solo hit, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, and was covered by Whitney Houston in 1992.
About Chaka Khan:
Chaka Khan (born Yvette Marie Stevens; March 23, 1953), frequently known as the "Queen of Funk-Soul", is a 10-time Grammy Award winning American singer-songwriter who gained fame in the 1970s as the frontwoman and focal point of the funk band Rufus.
About "I'm Every Woman":
"I'm Every Woman" is the debut solo single by American singer Chaka Khan from her debut solo studio album Chaka (1978). It was Khan's first hit outside her recordings with the funk band Rufus. "I'm Every Woman" was produced by Arif Mardin and written by the successful songwriting team Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson. The single established Chaka's career outside the group Rufus, whom she would leave after their eighth studio album Masterjam was released in late 1979. The track was remixed and re-released in 1989 for Khan's remix album Life Is a Dance: The Remix Project; this mix reached number 8 in the United Kingdom
LYRICS:
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I'll do it naturally
I'm every woman
It's all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can cast a spell
Of secrets you can't tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
Then instantly
I will appear 'cause
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I'll do it naturally
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can sense your needs
Like rain unto the seeds
I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes down to some good old-fashioned love
That's what I've got baby, 'cause
I'm every woman
It's all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I ain't braggin' 'cause I am the one
You just ask me, oo, it shall be done
And don't bother to compare
I've got it (I've got it)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Ah ah
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
Anything you want done, baby
Anything
Anything you want done, baby
Anything, anything
Anything you want done, baby
Anything
Anything you want done, baby
Anything, anything
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
