I remember Saturday mornings sitting in the floor eating a bowl of cereal while my parents were asleep just glued to the TV. Cartoons, American Bandstand, the Soul Train. The Midnight Special on the weekends. We were SO LUCKY!!
Saturday mornings were great
100% right, same here, you just took me on a great memory trip. I'm 60 so for me it was like mid 70's. Don't forget American Bandstand
@thisisitreactions great times brother.
It was the best ! Black ppl were all over tv from commercials to sitcoms
Yes, Super friends and all that...Fun Times Right
Earth Wind And Fire Music The Emotions Absolutely Amazing Singing Group Of All Times 🙏💞
The great old days when black singers had great backing bands and sang beautiful harmonies! What happened? You just can't touch this stuff! You guys hit a homerun with this. Brings me back to the old days when rock,soul,funk, disco,etc ruled the airwaves. You can't beat 60s and 70s music,it's the best 2 decades ever, nothing in the past 40 years can touch this! So much quality musically, lyrically, vocally . This music touched your soul brothers and there was no turning back! This stuff just hit hard and made you feel so good!
That whole album was stacked.
I'm 56 and have always loved this song.
Those are voices !! My word every time i play this song it just takes me somewhere !
It was Gold. the emotions were TIGHT!
That song if played now would be on top
It would
Bam! What a voice. If this isn't in your playlist you're lacking.
True true
YES, THAT 70’s GROOVE.
When one collaborates with the Phenix Horns and baseline of Verdine White and rhythm guitar of Al Mckay...you get a #1 song!!
Those voices could cut a safe open , classic
These ladies sound just like their recording in person. I was able to see them perform in Nashville back in the mid 70's. They were with The Commodore's and Major Harris. I can't tell how good it was you just had to be there. You guys are awesome.
F*#% today’s pop music. 70s/80s soul, R&B, funk and Blue-eyed soul is where it’s at. These ladies can belt.
This song is in my head as part of my life's soundtrack during the 70s.
One of my favorite songs from that era, and my very favorite from The Emotions. Their version of "I Don't Want To Lose Your Love" is a classic as well.
Dope
that is my soooooong! came out when i was 17! to this day it still hits me the saaame! 💃🏻🎶♥️
It hits the same
grew up with you sandib in NZ tho... I was 18 or 19. . . good days huh
Im 60 and remember those golden 70's. I love this song, but when i hear the beginning what comes to mind? The movie Boogie 🎬 Nights.
One of my favorite movies
Real singing and music period 👌
Love!! Takes me back to 10 years old and blasting this(well as loud as it would go,lol) on my little white portable record player. My dad ran a radio station in the 70s and so I was lucky to get all of the great records/albums.Such a wonderful time and this song is classic!
That had to be fun getting all that music
My dad has this song on a record such a simple but good song they don't make them like this anymore
look at all them fros. . . . didn't wear no wigs back then...proud black women looking and sounding beautiful as they are, unwigged and singing their hearts out....and that's all that mattered. . . what happened to our world❔ anyways. . . cheers for the company and hello or as we say in New Zealand. . . . "kia ora ki nga tuakana"
Long hair don't care. The fros were sexy as hell lol
Our NZ high school back in the 70s was filled with kids wearing afros, if you could grow a fro you were totally hip..with a comb stuck in it...😁
@@de-nz4jp I see a few of my mates on fb gone a bit shiny on top... a case of, "What happened to the fro bro, did it get bit shiny and slide off?" 😅 my grandmother and a couple aunties had fros. . . mine came out more or less straight 😳
@@donaldduck2139 yeah that's right.. you picture people as they were back your youth and then you randomly bump into them and it's like, whoa, i forgot to add 40 years onto your picture ..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This song is FIRE! Vocal power! And could we have a moment for the horn section? My teen music at the time.
Love this song!
You cannot be in a bad mood when listening to this song. It is so upbeat. It lifts your spirits. 🥰
JAM
Boogie Wonder Land, EWF. 👍
The Emotions are 🔥
Great memories for me. I remember this performance. Watched Soul Train and American Bandstand religiously. Then Solid Gold with the Solid Gold dancers. Great music. Talent like we don't really see a lot of today. About as close as we saw was in the 90's with Destiny's Child and En Vogue.
This is one of their best songs it is infectious still in my playlist to this day late 70s girl.here and I love the Emotions!! Great reaction fellas !
I can't listen to this song without thinking about either the beginning of Boogie Nights (1997) and B-Rock and the Bizz - MyBabyDaddy (which samples Best Of My Love, just sped up)
My 12 year-old self loved this song as much as I do now. I loved The Emotions and I was such a HUGE EW&F fan. This song and them on EW&F's "Boogie Wonderland" are staples on my playlist.
My first concert was the Commadors and the Emotions in 1976, I was 11 years old. Good times!
You had to see them perform on stage and hear them. They came to Nashville with the Commodores and Major Harris, blew the roof off. Love them. They actually sound like that. Awesome
I heard this song for the first time when I watched the movie Boogie Nights. I immediately bought the soundtrack just so I could listen to this song over and over again. I think it was on cassette tape. lol
This was my childhood. Mama played this day and night
The Jones girls
has a sound like The Emotions. Their big song was ,'You're gonna make me love somebody else '. 🔥
Beautiful all around
Its a song ive enjoyed my whole life , and never knew the groups name
My favorite Emotions song is, Don’t ask my neighbor!❤️ I loved living in the 70’s and 80’s. The song is so heavenly and the ladies are all beautiful!
My favorite too along with The Best of my Love. They were a great group
Great song and reaction and just goes to show that you don't necessarily need a fancy video clip if you have real talent and a great song like these ladies did. If you liked The Emotions, you may well enjoy songs from late 70s & early 80s by Sister Sledge including "He's the Greatest Dancer" and "We are Family" or by The Pointer sisters including: "Fire" (written by Bruce Springstein) or He's so Shy....
Beautiful ladies
Dang those girls can sing that’s the real deal. “NO AUTO TUNE”…they blow any current singer(s) out the water ( Mariah Carey, Beyoncé ain’t got nothing on them!)
The emotions are sisters, started as Gospel singers at very young age in Chicago, the Hutchinson sisters harmonies are unmatched.
This should have been #1 song 1977 - fell out of the top spot to Andy Gibb, then returned back to the top later.
My favorite female group of all time! My favorites by them are "Don't Ask My Neighbor" "Flowers" and "Walk the Line" Check out this 70's female group call Stargard singing "Which Way is Up" (Live version)
Great song. Always makes me feel like dancing.
We had Motown in Detroit. They had the Motown review at the Fox in the 60s all the great groups were there.
Great reaction!
Thank you
I can name that tune in 1 note. Yeah, you guys hit it; if you're not dancing, or at least moving to this, you may want to check your pulse.
This takes me way back to my childhood 🥰
Don't Ask My Neighbor was another by them that we kicked it to...
I have the Emotions album.. if you're a lover of dance, especially the disco era, this is a must have, going to a disco was a heck of a lot of fun, i mean coloured lights under a see through dance floor bouncing off a spinning mirror ball, come on, its like christmas on steroids
Christmas on steroids lol
So representative of some of the best times in our country. And now look. We need more 70s moments.
Respect to you guys for recognising these artists. The unsung heroes, it drives me mad how it just all gets swept away but it’s so important
It's the 70's, enough said ❤ ❤💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
👍❤🤙
Awesome! I'm glad I grew up with the soul, funk and disco music. Hard to sit still with this music. 🎶🎶🎶❤️👍
Two of my favorite Emotions songs were So I Can Love You and Don't Ask My Neighbor. I remember purchasing that Flowers album back in the day. The Emotions were sisters. They started as a gospel group called the Hutchenson Sunbeams. Little fact, I remember when Jannette Hutchins of the Emotions got pregnant by Phillip Bailey of EWF while they were traveling the road together. I'm sure that you've heard Boogie Wonderland by EWF and the Emotions?
Yo! I was 12 years old, SUMMER OF 76 WHEN I FIRST HEARD THIS SONG! MY FIRST SUMMER JOB 76, I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT THIS RECORD! NOW, I LOOOOVED THE RECORD, THE VOCALS.....THE LADIES......BUT! WANDA!🤪🔥😘💖💯 THE LEAD! THAT SMILE! THAT VOICE SIMPLY "CRUSHED"😁🤗🤪ME SON! PLUS THIS WAS GRILLIN AND ROLLERSKATING MUSIC! GOOD TIMES! GOOD MUSIC! GREAT MEMORIES!🤭🥰🎉💯💖🤗
My "FIRST CRUSH"! REALLY! I have 7 sisters and 9 siblings. I was the youngest boy! I was 12 years old when I first saw them perform this song on Soul Train. Inner city GROOVIN WAS NOTHING NEW WHERE I GREW UP AT! SINGERS, DANCERS, STEPPERS, RAPPING, POETRY WAS UNDERWAY SO......my MUSICAL TABLE WAS BEING SET BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING "OF MUSIC" WAS REALLY EXPANDING. HECK! YOU MEET A NEW PERSON AND YOU COULD COME IN CONTACT WITH NOT JUST NEW SONGS....BUT ARTISTS, GENRES, REMAKES AND EXPRESSIONS OF MUSIC THAT YOU MAY HAVE "NEVER" HEARD BEFORE. BLACK BEAUTY IN THE 70's FOR ME WAS MOSTLY NEIGHBORS, FAMILY, CLASSMATES, TEACHERS AND SISTERS OF FRIENDS OF MY SIBLINGS AND MYSELF. I WAS REALLY INTO SCI FI MOVIES, LOONEY TOONS, EDUCATIONAL TELEVISION...MAINLY LITERATURE AND WILDLIFE. American Bandstand and Soul Train OPENED UP THE DESIRE TO "SEEK OUT" ADDITIONAL MUSIC starting with some of the names on the album covers. I looked those names up in the library ONLY TO FIND OUT "WHO THEY WERE INSPIRED BY, THEIR VOCAL AND INSTRUMENTAL ORIGINS, STYLES AND FREESTYLES BASED ON INSPIRATIONAL EXPERIENCES LIKE OPEN AIR SERVICES, JOOT JOINTS, FESTIVALS, MASHED REHEARSALS WITH ALOT OF FREESTYLING....NOT JUST MUSICAL STYLES BUT LYRICAL STYLES IN AND OF DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS AS WELL. IT WAS A GREAT TIME IN MY LIFE TO FIND OUT THAT MUSIC WAS LIKE MY "COMFORT FOOD" TO STRENGTHEN AND EDIFY THINGS THAT I CONFIRMED IN AND FROM MY DAY TO DAY EXPERIENCES. MUSICAL INTERLUDES ARE A BIG, PEACEFUL PART OF ALOT OF MY "INTRESPECTIVE" TIMES ALONE. AS A RESULTS. I AM "LITERALLY CODED" NOT JUST WITH WORDS BUT GESTURES, SMELLS, BODILY FUNCTIONS, OCTAVES, SIZES, SHADES, MODES OF SILENCE AND LEVELS OF MICRO FREQUENCIES THAT ARE SIMPLE VIBRATIONS IN YOUR MUSTACHE HAIRS OR EYELASHES. WHO AND WHAT MOVES IN IT OR NOT...AND WHY!!! SEE! I HEAR A SONG FROM A TIME IN MY LIFE AND IT OPENS UP "ALL OF THIS......RAMBLING THROUGH MENTAL PICTURES, PROMPTING AND SONIC, VISUAL, MENTAL AND HYPERSENSITIVE SENSATIONS!🤪🤯🤔😳 Whatever son.
Sublime record, played it as my first dance at my wedding. Very underrated Chicago soul.
Just found your channel great stuff, Thank You. A fabulous video is Eart Wind and Fire with the Emotions doing "" Boogie Wonder Lad "" the live Video. 🎹🎸🎷👍😎
Welcome aboard!
Tha cut!
There wasn't much disco I would pick to listen to, though I LOVED dancing to it, but this was one I loved listening to, no matter where. Thanks!
The vocals on this song are so crazy good.
Maurice white from EWF produced the emotions album 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great choice!! I sure do miss Soul Train. I enjoyed Soul Train better than Bandstand when I was
Great song! If u like that, Gotta check out Three Degrees-"When Will I See You Again". And, Holy Crap...you haven`t heard Hall & Oates-"Sara Smile"! One of the smoothest songs ever! Darryl Hall`s vocals are silk in this. One of the nicest songs ever! Guaranteed to go immediately on your playlist!
❤
This was the first record I ever bought, I was 11 got it on a 45 rpm. Didn’t have the little center bit for 45s on my parents record player they only played 33 1/3 rpm albums. I had to line it up carefully till I figured out what I needed..
Love it. Do you remember Sukiyaki?
They produced The Emotions before this
The original three singing this song were sisters.
THIS GOES TO SHOW THAT ORIGINALS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST.
GOSH I LOVE THE GOOD OL' DAYS
BETTER THAN THE
GARBAGE kids LISTEN TO TODAY.
PURE TALENT OF
THE
COMPOSER,
ARRANGER,
AND
INTERPRETER ( performers)
Check out early in the emotions career when they were still with stacks song called so I can love you. With Booker T. and the MG is backing them up.
I love The Emotions. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. They have other great hits too. Don't ask my neighbor, Smile, Flowers, I don't want to lose your love.
Now that you've done one of my favorite female groups, I would love to see you react to one of my favorite ladies of the eighties, Jody watley's "Still a Thrill'' song and
video. If you haven't seen it, I think you would really enjoy that one.
Dang! I lost the bet!
How about some Earth, Wind, and Fire, or some KC and the Sunshine Band.
This is EWF. These ladies are/ were the groups back up singers. There's no way to miss Maurice White and Pamela Hutchinson's collaboration here. 💕
Great reaction, fellas. For another foxy trio of ladies, I recommend the 1974 hit, *"When Will I See You Again",* by The Three Degrees. I'm sure you all know the Philly Soul song, but there's a great video you can do a Reaction to which features the 3 gals in gold dresses sitting on stools. Here's the link: czcams.com/video/3R878g-SppU/video.html
Will check it out
@@thisisitreactions Terrific, I can't wait for your reaction! It's one of my Top 10 favorite songs of all-time!
#1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 5 weeks.
@@fmtalks1386 And tons of radio play.
"Me for You" if my favorite emotions doing if you could please review.
It’s Maurice White not Williams.
