Powerful people is title of both the second studio-album of Italian-Canadian singer Gino Vannelli, and the sixth track on this album. The album was released in 1974, and was produced by Gino and his brother Joe Vannelli.

The funky "People Gotta Move" was Vannelli's first hit in the United States, when disco-music was gaining popularity. The song reached #22 on Billboard Top 100. The album is characterized by Joe Vannelli's first expiriments with synthesizers. The last track: "Poor Happy Jimmy" is a tribute to American singer Jim Croce, who died in a plane-accident a year earlier.

Vannelli was awarded a Grammy for Powerful People.
