The hardest working man, James Brown. Everybody get up. His songs made

2
00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:20.600
hits and now they are beyond hits. His songs are still being played.

3
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:26.359
There is music in his name.
As I speak it, I can still

4
00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:33.000
sense the sound of him. It's
hard to say that his songs are oldies

5
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:43.119
because everybody keeps on listening. They
keep on listening to that sound of James

6
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:51.159
Brown. I can still hear the
cheering crowd. There are still people that

7
00:00:51.359 --> 00:01:00.759
imitate the man behind the microphone stand. There is still great love coming from

8
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:07.359
his fans, wanting more of his
voice and loving his band, the band

9
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:17.319
and the backup singers. James Brown, godfather of soul. Some call him

10
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:25.159
mister Dynamite. I call him gold. He could dance, slide, glide

11
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:30.879
and move. His music was funk. It had base and horn in the

12
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:38.280
groove. He's a legacy and there
is nothing left to prove James Brown.

13
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:49.159
His music still survives. D j's
still spin his records like he's alive.

14
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:55.680
You're listening to the sound of eagle
Heart in the wind of his wings,

15
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:14.080
the instrumental sound remembering James Brown.
