Labelle - Time Is Life (Live) 1970

Rare performance. Labelle, lead singer Patti LaBelle with Sarah Dash and Nona Hendryx. This performance is years before then they change their image and release hit song "Lady Marmalade". Patti was 26 years young and her vocals are unbelievable. Enjoy! :-)

If you’re watching this, you’ve got a good taste. Patti Labelle is THE VOICE.

Patti's voice is so resonant, she is creating her own overtones. This woman knows how to sing correctly.

[TheUniiSon]

So sad that now a days we don't have that kind of interpretation and soul.
Wish I could lived on the 70's.

[LanceBloomfield]

They were the Dynamite Trio. Legendary Nona, Sarah & Patti. ❤

[debracox]

I'm here from Instagram to confirm the fact that Patti belted out a that was so unearthly that every last single angel in Heaven threw up they hands 🙌🏾. One thing for certain is there will never be another 👑🎤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

The resonance in Patti's voice is otherworldly! Superhuman!

My friend took me to see Patti for my 40th birthday. I hadn't been out of the city in years and I was soo excited. When the show was over, we'd just gotten off the elevator and were almost at our room when my friend said; "Look we're on the same floor. I went to her kissed her and told her my name was Patti too. It was my b'day and thanked her for being my "gift !" She smiled, sweat was pouring from her and I know she was tired. It was a wonderful weekend, one I'll never forget.

Oh my God the passion in her face the emotion was so rich it liberated me

This is THE performance that obliterates any other performance done by any other female singer before or after.

[Tom-PlaylistKing-Smith]

One of the most underrated vocal groups, male or female, of all time.

This my first time seeing this video and I am floored. It's a sound about Labelle that nobody can match, omg if theyvwere young today. Those girls were just 25-26 years old sounding like they sound today, RIP Sarah🙏🏽💞.

These ladies wearing " normal " cloches is very funny to me superb jazzy psychedelic performance !

[sljjrphd]

Down home harmonies with that vintage Gospel flare...LABELLE all day Everyday.

[tonee]

Lead. Background. Harmony. You name. Killed it. 'Nuff said.

[aminah]

Just do it Patty, Nona and Sarah. Now that's singing and all of them have strong voices.

Time is an ever changing thing
A cycle that knows no end
Oh many times, many times oh lord
Time's an enemy
But sometimes, time is a friend
Time
Brought you, brought you to me
But now time is taking you away
Dont take my love life Dont take my love life
In time
I hope I hope
It wont hurt as much
As much as it's hurting me today
But I remember
Those walks in the rain
Those picnics in the park
Those lazy sunday days SUNDAY DAYS
Dont take my love life Dont take my love life
Not even time can take these memories from me
I guess it would be better
If it would
But time will let me go loving you
And I'm contended that it should
Sometimes time Uh hooo hooo
Sometimes oh lord
Hoo hoooo hoooo
Time brought you to me
Sometimes it's a friend, it's an enemy yes yea yea yea yea

I remember seeing this for the first time and fell in LOVE. Patti LaBelle sang her face off on this and I love how she got into the moment and her mouth went away from the mic and you could still hear that voice. They each did good but Patti went OFF

[geraldtyus]

Patti is preaching. LaBelle is testifying❤ to the truth❤.

3:15-3:40 Patti is KILLING me!! lol. SANG
