User reviews 6 Review. Top review. I loved the artists on the show as well, but no one could deny that they didn't appreciate those sexy dancers! Week after week I would tune in just to see those talented dancers in shiny 80's Lycra and leg warmers do their thing. I have been a fan since it first aired back in early and stopped watching around It just wasn't the same.

One of the most magnificent harmonic thinkers of the 20th and 21st centuries, Hancock smiled in front of a series of laser-beam screensavers. Or are you as hopeful as you were when you wrote about those 'big wheels rolling through fields where sunlight streams'? I have to believe that. For celebrities and everyday folks alike, the past year has taken a toll on all of us. As such, an extra glint of humility shone through these interviews.
As expected for a whopping five-hour event, some of the celebs tapped out early, leaving their bewildered pets blinking at the camera. Joni Mitchell, however, was a trooper, observing the telecast stoically while her creamsicle-colored cat pranced around for attention. Seeing Mitchell happy, healthy and hilarious is bittersweet. In , she suffered an aneurysm; in , she still struggled to walk because of it.
Yet at the end of the night, there she was, pajama-clad, munching popcorn and cracking jokes. Throughout the broadcast, Mitchell regally sipped white wine with both hands. Here's to your next 77 years, Joni. Of course, as always, the point was the music, but housebound legends and their assemblage of furry friends stole the show for once. With vaccines rolling out worldwide, music will be back to business as usual in no time.
It was then, from the Godfather of Soul himself, he first learned the Power of the One, or the importance of synching on the one-beat. With George Clinton and Parliament-Funkadelic , Bootsy's Rubber Band, his solo records and endless collaborations, he's harnessed that funky power and grown it into a philosophy, a way of life.
On his new album, The Power of the One , released today Oct. It's playful, funky, joyous and filled with talented collaborators from across the musical spectrum, including Snoop Dogg , Dr. While he had to adapt to virtual collaboration when they pandemic hit—the album was about half done at this point—he is undeniably thrilled with the result and rightly so.
And just making music together. It's like making love, it's like making friends. In a time like we're in now, to do that, what else could you ask for? It's just a great feeling. I can tell you, I know they had the same kind of feeling," Collins told us recently over the phone.
We caught up with the master himself to learn more about finishing the album during quarantine, bringing together the talented collaborators, mentoring younger artists over the years and, of course, the Power of the One. Just gearing up, getting myself together to go out there and do it one more time, you know?
We got the record off. That was the good part for me, was to at least get through it because it is a very deep time that kind of hit us out of the blue. Getting through it was a beautiful thing. It actually helped keep me sane. I bet, having something to work on. And my first question is about your new album, The Power Of The One , which is coming out pretty soon. What do you hope this album offers to the world and to its listeners?
I'm hoping the world comes together like we did on this album. All the musicians, everybody that really put their time and energy in it—and they really, really wanted to do it. It wasn't like somebody forced them to do it or paid them on such a big scale that they just had to do it. Everybody joined me and did it because it was fun. It reminded everybody that, even in a difficult time, each and every one of us can get some kind of joy out of it and at the same time, help somebody else share some good vibes.
If we didn't get nothing else but some good vibes, that was really good enough because everybody needs some of that right now. I think on this record, that's what it's really all about. Good vibes, being in the kitchen cooking up something a little different here and there, using a different recipe.
Even a recipe that's not traditional. On this album, that's what I wanted to show—it doesn't have to be a certain traditional record. It could be everybody together just having a good time because, to me, that was the main thing.
Stop stressing yourself. Have a good time doing it and doing it with somebody you want to do it with. That's key. I think everybody felt that and it comes off of the record like that, from what people are telling me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That to me is what the Power of the One is, the power of all of the people coming together and just doing what we have to do to get through it, to get over the hump. Putting all of our differences all by the wayside because we all realize we're just human and we need each other.
We're coming up in a time where people don't really feel like they need each other because the technology we have is saying you don't need nobody. You can take your office with you. You got it right there in your hand, your iPhone, and you really don't need people. Once you get used to that, it turns on you. It's like a Frankenstein monster. The monster is cool and everything, but one day he wakes up and realizes he's a monster and turns on you. I think that's what happened in the world.
We got to take the power within all of us where we're standing. I think this music will help in our healing, help in our focus, and help us to have a little joy and a little fun along with all the deepness that is going on. That's what I wanted to do with this record, really just to put some joy and fun in everybody's lives. Can you explain the Power of the One a little more, both like musical technique and the philosophy? Well, actually The Power of the One grew out of when I worked with James Brown, he was always saying to the band, "You got to put it on the one.
Give me that one and you can play everything else, but just hit it on the one. To this day, even on a computer, when you have a four by four [beat], you got that one.
You'll hear that click louder on the emphasis on that one beat. That brings everybody's focus to it. This is where we all meet up, right here on the one. I, out of that training with James Brown, I took that over to Parliament-Funkadelic and George Clinton made a whole concept out of everything's on the one. Now for me, it's more everybody is part of the Power of the One.
It's like everybody's around that one wall and everybody gets that certain frequency all at the same time and that wall will come down. That's the Power of the One. We just have to realize that that's what we got to do, everybody's got to be in sync with each other. Once we began to be in sync with each other, all of this mess that we're going through falls down. I want to get people to realize that we do have that power within ourselves.
We got to get focused and quit running from each other. We've got to all come together on the one and that's when you get the Power of the One. I'm just trying to redirect people to come together.
It doesn't matter who your father is—I just have to respect your father and you have to respect mine. That's the Power of the One, when you realize that none of that stuff really matters. We're all on this spaceship mother earth and we're traveling through time and space on earth.
This is our mothership. Nobody's throwing us out. We're on it together and the sooner we realize that, the better.
Because you can't be here and be better than somebody else. I'm not better than nobody else. Out here, I'm just like you. It's really about us getting along and getting together while we're here. This is the opportunity for us.
It's just like this album. This album was the opportunity to put all these beautiful people together that are not necessarily supposed to be together on a record. They were all different-looking, different sizes, different shapes, but really hard job. But the best. They loved it. Attitude became so important in casting her dancers, Mann even went so far as to link the positive attitude she sought with the iconic beauty the Solid Gold dancers came to represent in Eighties culture.
The choreographer said, "I looked for how long it takes them to learn the routine and obviously their technique, how they perform it, and their face, how they smile.
