If you love the 70's, you just have to love this awesome movie. I love this beautiful song and this moving scene so much, that watching this makes me want to go back to 1976 so badly!
Good year for movies period! Rocky, Bad News Bears, Carrie, Bugsy Malone, taxi driver, etc, etc. Of course, I was only 3 years old at the time, including Car Wash!😅😂
Just a crusty old white dude here but I saw the movie a couple of times when it first came out. This song was the best. It still makes me wanna pull my equally old wife a little closer and do some smooching. Thanks
It's been three years Mr. White. Hope you've grabbed your lady many times since you last wrote! Great song. I fell in love it...and the movie and characters...when I saw it with my dad in the mid 70's. I was about 6. It's a true classic!
Now, he has an AFRO!!! Damn, that’s a lot of hair. Such a real thing how black people wore their hair in the 70’s. Looking around today, the Afro is slowly making a comeback! Still, I’ll just stick with my black bald head. Peace.
I remember going to the Drive-in to see this movie with my first date ever..Yes, Drive-in! Fell in love with Rose Royce and bought this record the next day.. One of my favorite movies ever.. Oh memories of youth are wonderful.. My generation had the best music ever. BTW, The cook behind the counter is Otis Sistrunk. Former Oakland Raider from the glory days!
Kevin Frampton my first time seeing this movie was in St-Eustache drive-in within the Province of Quebec near Montreal, I to it was with my first girlfriend and we got married later on, I totally fell in love with her as we wher listening and watching that scene, most beautiful romantic song to dance too, Cheer's from cold Canadian weather! Lol
I love this movie so much. I can almost quote this entire movie. Hippo, T.C., Irwin, & Lindy are the characters that make this movie the CULT CLASSIC it is...ESPECIALLY LINDY & T.C.!!! I can't count the times I've watched it. The soundtrack is AWESOME too!!! This song is a goose-bump song...IT'S JUST THAT DAMN GOOD!!! I'd love to see this movie re-released in movie theaters again just to see how many people would come to see it again & to watch it again with a real laughing audience. Much love from Mobile Alabama.
I still can't believe how much my mother, when she was young, looked like the (Mona) waitress. I remember when I was a kid, my mother would come to my school and other students would ask if my mother was the lady in the movie Car Wash (Tracy Reed).
I was a little kid at the time this song/movie was released, and they invoke such bittersweet memories of places, friends and family now long-gone. Tell the people near to you how much you care about them, while you can, because one day all you are left with are memories and a song.
Heart and Soul music...god,how i miss the 70's.A time of hope and love,generally speaking.And undeniably fabulous real music created by true artisans and gifted performers...I wouldn't trade a second of it for all the money on the planet!
I saw this movie when it first came out at the Lyric Theater in Asbury Park, NJ. I loved the music then, and still love it now. So much soul, so much emotion is invoked in these songs. Rose Royce knocked it out of the park.This song is so cool. It's not filthy; it's not perverted. Just a man yearning to win the attention and affection of a woman, who to him, just sends his soul to Heaven. Why O God, why can't music be like this today?
They would show this movie almost every Sat afternoon on local TV in Houston during the 80s--i was obsessed with the guy that wore the rat ears lol--i actually went to school one day after seeing this movie and flipped butter on the cafeteria ceiling 🤣
While I liked this movie a lot, I certainly now appreciate more the music and the story of this movie more than ever. This movie needs to be redone. But use the same music. Motown and its legacy of some of the greatest musicians ever deserves that.
he aproaches her, she doesnt care, he works in his mode. thinkin to himself this girl is gonna be mine. he serenates to her in sweet harmony. she refuses. he says look. girl you aint gonna find another one like me. so it's your choice, she thinks and finally gives in. " classic scene"
To: davm9572... That's Franklin Ajay. He was a well-known comedian in the mid '70s. In fact, a lot of others in the movie were, too... George Carlin, Danny DeVito (had a small part), Professor Irwin Corey (guy with pee bottle), Richard Pryor, The Pointer Sisters, Bill Duke, Ivan Dixon, et al.
@thomasklugh4345 Garrett Morris, Dwayne Jesse, Antonio Fargus, Vic Netti, Henry Kingi( stuntman coordinator for those who didn't k ow)- Indian hair guy!, etc- oh Lauren Jones aka Gloria Schultz- the director's wife! Fact: she played Raheem's mom in the movie Juice! Just think, did Tupac Shakur know who he was hugging!??, In Car Wash, she played Marlene, thr red wig wearing prostitute !😅
Was at the St-Eustache drive-in in the province of Quebec to see this motion picture and I totally hooked up to this song ever since, love that scene, looooooooove this song, my afro- hair was just like his back in the days and I had lots of fun in my 20's back then, thanks for sharing.
I swear when I was a kid and seen this at the movies, I actually thought that comedian Franklin Ajai was was really the one singing this song. And that’s what I believed for quite a while afterwards.
The smoothest song ever.

2024 makes me feel exactly the same
A smile and a tear watching the movie car wash again after all those years

One of greatest movies ever!

Ah,the 70's time to get down!A lot of shit going down in the 70's.

Classic soundtrack. Although, you know the song, " you're on my mind", is NOT on the original soundtrack! It was released as a single!
I miss the 70's so much. Wish I Could build a time machine and go back. Good times
Music is a time machine, the good times are there for the taking.
@@davidjd123So true
I still can't believe how much my mother, when she was young, looked like the (Mona) waitress. I remember when I was a kid, my mother would come to my school and other students would ask if my mother was the lady in the movie Car Wash (Tracy Reed).
🤩
Man, Rose Royce came out the box on this soundtrack. I still love Rose Royce.

Saw this movie last night..👍👍👍
Heart and Soul music...god,how i miss the 70's.A time of hope and love,generally speaking.And undeniably fabulous real music created by true artisans and gifted performers...I wouldn't trade a second of it for all the money on the planet!
This is my favorite all time movie. My #1 movie, and I love this scene. Classic!
Friday made me love this song, I fucking love this damn song.
He's the spitting image of "Undercover Brother"

2023 and still playing it loud
Great movie! 70’s movies were the BEST!
There was a butter pat on the ceiling of Gail’s Restaurant in South City, CA. Stuck there for years after one drunk night….awwwwwright Rose Royce! ❤️
Ahhhh the good ole Dayz. Makes me smile. Very Cute. 😍 ......
They would show this movie almost every Sat afternoon on local TV in Houston during the 80s--i was obsessed with the guy that wore the rat ears lol--i actually went to school one day after seeing this movie and flipped butter on the cafeteria ceiling 🤣
Love This Song, Real Music

❤❤❤
They’ll never make Movies or Music this good ever again!!
Amazing movie!
This movie is right on the money for what is was like at my carwash!
While I liked this movie a lot, I certainly now appreciate more the music and the story of this movie more than ever. This movie needs to be redone. But use the same music. Motown and its legacy of some of the greatest musicians ever deserves that.
Saw this movie with my then boyfriend, now hubby. Love this movie and this song especially!
Such a great tune, from such a great time!
I wanna time travel back to 1976, when I was 16 years old, living the dream!
Best movie ever 😮
Love this movie! One of my favorites
One of my favorite movies & song. I grew up in the 70's. This soundtrack is awesome

Such a great scene to such a great movie. The song is so beautiful and truly made this whole scene shimmer.
Love his afro
Had to come here just for a little while.
he aproaches her, she doesnt care, he works in his mode. thinkin to himself this girl is gonna be mine. he serenates to her in sweet harmony. she refuses. he says look. girl you aint gonna find another one like me. so it's your choice, she thinks and finally gives in. " classic scene"
Franklyn Ajaye....... nice fro!!!
Esa mujer es increíblemente hermosa
The black guy that wants to date the waitress seems like he is a really nice person ,he has that innocent enjoying life look
To: davm9572... That's Franklin Ajay. He was a well-known comedian in the mid '70s. In fact, a lot of others in the movie were, too... George Carlin, Danny DeVito (had a small part), Professor Irwin Corey (guy with pee bottle), Richard Pryor, The Pointer Sisters, Bill Duke, Ivan Dixon, et al.
yeah bebe. 😎.
@thomasklugh4345 Garrett Morris, Dwayne Jesse, Antonio Fargus, Vic Netti, Henry Kingi( stuntman coordinator for those who didn't k ow)- Indian hair guy!, etc- oh Lauren Jones aka Gloria Schultz- the director's wife! Fact: she played Raheem's mom in the movie Juice! Just think, did Tupac Shakur know who he was hugging!??, In Car Wash, she played Marlene, thr red wig wearing prostitute !😅
When music was music I love this song I want all 70s music played at my funeral
SCRTD 5075 looking good with those Bat-Wings!

Really was such beautiful song 🎵

huggie Bear from Starsky and Hutch and the trucker the coos beat up in Convoy. Love them all ❤❤
Was at the St-Eustache drive-in in the province of Quebec to see this motion picture and I totally hooked up to this song ever since, love that scene, looooooooove this song, my afro- hair was just like his back in the days and I had lots of fun in my 20's back then, thanks for sharing.
Ah yea, here it is!!! loved this movie!!!!
When I was a broke college student in 1977 living in Los Angeles, I spent a fortnight living in Franklin Ajaye's afro.
One sweet fro man!
It was a wig though....lol They admitted it on UNSUNG HOLLYWOOD
Fortnight means two weeks. I didn't know that.
😂😂😂😂 This was a good movie.👍🏾
I wish Afros were the style again....I really liked them..Hated the Geri Curls of the 80's though
I had a Curl back in the 80's, but yea,the Afro was better, is better.
I TOTALLY AGREE, I PERSONALLY, HATED, THE GERI CURL!😣😵
Greatest fro ever Frankie's
Any body from that Time with an afro that big is going to look like a giant bowl of cereal on their head because of the bald spot
this movie was so cool i love it
Allways makes me smile
very gripping song
This song is absolute paradise
Looks like a good film ! ❤
Halcyon moment in an undervalued American movie classic.
Man! What a 'fro! Right On! ✊🏾
Timeless
I have tried to listen to this song without watching this scene. Can't do it. Hahaha. Thanks for the upload.
Danm, this song and vid bring back some great memories.
great movie, scene and music
Such a great fun movie!
1976' i was 14 years old.i still have the original album.
I love the RTD bus going by at the end that says KMET 94.7
Just watching all those old cars pass by.... I think I saw my first car 73 Datsun 610.
And still my fav scene in this movie - and theres tons of good stuff in here too but this one stood out for me

The look @ 0:57 is unique. He puts it all into one look.
Great movie, great music.
TPD
I miss this movie! But that dude needs to donate me some of that afro! I would make a wig from it! 😄
Miss Backyard Camper I think he's wearing an Afro wig himself
lol I know right? Her name is Tracy Reed who played Mona on Car Wash...she played a few other movies too..
I swear when I was a kid and seen this at the movies, I actually thought that comedian Franklin Ajai was was really the one singing this song. And that’s what I believed for quite a while afterwards.
Dude Looks like one of my brother's best friend he lived across the street, his name was Emmett but everyone called him brother
The don't make music like this anymore.
that fro!!! O_O im so jealous...
damn shit was so simple then..
Saw it in a theater as a new release.
Still do the butter trick to this day
Love the afro😊
KILLER AFRO
Car wash is the 70s version of Friday (1995) just a day in the life of L.A.
