The energy on that stage, on the dance floor, race was not a factor, but having fun together, if only we can live like that in real life, it would be so beautiful
Standout year 1984.14 years old.Playing with my dog after school in the backyard.Riding my bike pretending to be Knight Rider.Dukes of Hazard,Fame,Magnum PI,Solid Gold on tv at night.The year of The Karate Kid & Police Academy.Madonna,Springsteen,Michael Jackson,Rockwell,Prince,Howard Jones,Duran Duran on the radio alongside funky jams like this one.I'd go back in a heartbeat.
I can tell you why. The artist we had in the 1980's were all ADULTS with respect in music. No cursing at all. Today's music are young people with cursing and no respect to listeners. I'm 56 yrs old and believe me it's true.
You gotta' love this band , I mean they covered the 60's , 70's 80's and the 90's flawlessly with HITS AND STILL LOOK GOOD. .. I only wish my BAND COULD HAVE DONE IT, here's to the mighty BAR- KAYS !!!✌❤👊🎼🎸
A stone classic! The youngsters today don't know what good music is and what a great time it was to be alive in the '80's. Lipps Inc., Parliament, The Gap Band, Rick James, James Brown, Con Funk Shun, The Brothers Johnson, Billy Preston, Kool & The Gang, Commodores, Ohio Players, Isley Brothers!!
Look kiddies..no phones, no autotune...just talented people singing, dancing and having a great time..glad I was there to experience the best times ever! :)
I saw the Unsung episode on them. Heartbreaking at the beginning is an understatement...They also talked about how other artists would study them as well to create their own image in the 70s-80s...And they are still doing music. Love the song Grown Folks (2012)
Amazing group.Classic track.Not ever forgotten by many including myself.Yes I do remember the original group,and the members that died in a plain crash.All but one.Who didn't make it to the plain on time.I've sat back & have completely enjoyed all there songs through 5 decades.With each incarnation of the group over the years,adding so much to the Bar-Kays legacy.PS:Larry,Enjoy your retirement.Hell you've earned it.Much blessings to you & your family.Take care knowing the Bar-Kays will go on.Just say I'm a True fan.Well leave it at that.
Barkays are legends with so many hits. They deserve so so much more credit and shouldn’t have to perform anymore. I’m pretty sure they got burned with masters like everyone else back in these times.
I just really love this song from back in the day which brings me back to my teenage years!.. This groove has that same flavor and beat as Midnight Star's "No Parking on The Dancefloor"
This song always killed me as a kid, because I couldn't help but get a kick out of the lead singer just shaking his hair all over his face. I never knew the name of the group. I knew they were a different group had a similar sound to groups like Midnight Star. I find out that the Bar-Kays were an older group that my mom of course knew about though I never had the chance of asking. All I could think of at that time, is that whatever the popular "sound" was of the 80's dance era many copied it. But as an old friend said, if you're gonna copy someone then you copy the best. Which is why this era of the music industry was one of the best times for music. Mainly, because the parents of that time were able to enjoy some of the newer pieces before they handed the torch their children.
They had a pool hall bar in our neighborhood back in the early 1980's with all the top Bar Kay songs on the juke box it, they would get played non stop. Great band with an excellent rhythm. My favorite song is Proposition, proposition, I just rebought the CD so I can listen to it in my '95 Cadillac with the Bose sound system, Neighbors were asking what band that is, they want to get the CD
This is fantastic in every way. It is like everything about 80s style distilled into a single video. From the music, to the fashion, to the sets and lighting. It's amazing.
Aaaaaaay THOSE were the days! If u weren't there man did y'all miss out!! Now my GRAND BABIES jam this talking bout oldies (long as grandma outta ear range😂)
My beautiful group Legendary Barkays ho yeahhhhhhhhh we love you for ever and ever .....you are fantastic and so funkyyyyyyyyy.....thank you for all you gived to the world.........God bless all of yoursssssssssss

Happy 😊😃 uplifting Dancing 💃 Make sure you party 🥳🎉🤪😉😏😜 With Today music 🎶🎵 Barkay nowadays 2022.
So back in 2008 i was at a club dancing, and the music fades and they play this song. I swear i fucken lost my shit!! I dont think ive ever gone that hard at a club.
My boyfriend jimping in his chair for a couple seconds. 😂😂😂😂😂 If I heard this song before, I forgotten it. I do remember in HS in early half of '90s borrowing the two Bar-Kays 45s my father had and one had Do It, and the other one was Feels Like I'm Falling In Love. Had not heard those in forever. ( or maybe it was on same 45, I forgot ). Decided to explore more of their music. That what brought me to here.
I got to ROADIE and meet and hang with the best funk band in 1983 on the Dangerous tour, all the guys were friendly and took time to talk with me after the sound. It was especially great to meet Larry Dodson and James Alexander, the only original left that didn't die in the Crash with Otis Redding. He was in Memphis Tennessee in the studio, got a autographed pair of Michael (Buck Board) Smiths autographed sticks. And being a drummer now for 41 years and can play all of their songs it means a lot.
I love the Barkays I especially love Freak Show. The Barkays are one of the baddest funkiest soul bands of our generation I am a 1970's baby and I was a teenager when this song Freak Show came out. I am still a Barkay's fan.
I remember growing up in the 80s when breakdancing came on the scene. I was only a little nipper then. They were the days man,serious. People used to have breakdancing competitions on lino on a field. The summers were beautiful, long and hot. I wish i was young again. Good old days ( SIGH ).
what an amazing history; the original bar kays were the band for the great otis reading and unfortunately most of them passed away in the tragic plane wreck. what a fun time and a fun group. party and dancing.
gads i MISS the 80s...SO MUUCH FUNNNNN.....anyone who was young and into it back then...knows ..this song..says it all man. As long as you just wanted to have fun and not bother anyone..you were welcome..i suddenly have a need to watch breakin...i wonder why the 80s still rule
How in the hell have I never seen this video? I grew up in the 80's w/ MTV & watching 'Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo' on HBO@ my g-ma's. And I was seriously obsessed. I just bought 'Breakin', so feeling all nostalgic. Didn't know "Ozone" passed away. Breaks my heart 💔. My dusty ass is breakin' out some moves for the man!
could not agree with you more time and this is coming from a OG we're back in the day they would play this song at 145am along with No Parking On The Dance Floor and then probably mostly finish it off with the Dazz Band Let It Whip but that was back in the day yeah we had so much fun dancing and pretty much in the neighborhood everybody know each other in a couple 3-4 bars that we would go to and pretty much and if you were dancing with a b**** at 1:50 a.m. you were pretty much getting some pussy I don't know how it is nowadays but I ain't been to a club and for ever but man back then it was the good old days nowadays m************ are shooting and stabbing and who knows what the f*** you b****** guy ship back in the day you got the crabs you got some damn lotion and you were good to go now they got this f****** herpes and HIV and syphilis man bro that's it's off the chain and if I do pick up a bedside double wrap that mother f***** don't believe it or not most of them b****** I hook up with I just tell him to give me a f****** handjob and send them on their way

Chur brother good to at least meet online one of few on here that actually makes sense about the good old days.Peace out to you too brother,no doubt we be checking in.Pleasure brother.
When I was eleven, my dance class did a routine to this song for our annual recital, complete with breakdancing moves by a select few of us. Man, this takes me back to those days, but only in my mind. At my age, I'd probably wind up in traction if I tried to bust a move now! Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
ANYBODY FROM SUR CALIFORNIA FROM THE CITY OF WHITTIER TO EAST LOS ANGELES THAT CRUZED WHITTIER BLVD AND FRIDAYS TILL SUNDAYS HAD TO HEAR THIS SONG AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES AND IT STILL HITS HARD
This song is by far the best of the three though. Should have crossed over more, along with Sexomatic, the 2nd single. That and "Can I" by Cashmere would have gone over well with mostly-white pop radio if they'd just given it a chance.
This is da bomb right here a feel good jam that reminds us of when music was soulful, happy and made you want to get up and dance like a FREAK 👍🙌👏🏻❤️⭐️
This song will forever be a part of my life because of the movie “Breakin’”!!!!

The Bar-Kays and Cameo. Two funk bands I still jam to, 40+years later.

Didnt know this
The most UNDERRATED funk band in history. Think I'm lying...check their total number of Gold and platinum records....and longevity!
They 'lifted' more grooves than an elevator full of records. Just saying. They are definitely one of the best cover bands in history.
No lies detected. One of my favs EASILY
Everybody's entitled to an opinion even the Sun comes out
ABSOLUTELY 💯% RIGHT !!!! 🤘✌️
They were a big influence on Prince and Rick James....
WHO ISN'T BUMPIN' TO THIS IN 2024 ?
They could re release this jam today and people who never heard of them would make it a no. 1 hit all over again
The band is here at Steven Steakhouse, commerce, California 5/2/24

That is true I was thinking of that
You my man are definitely spot on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 80's FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PERIOD
They still do! In 2022 nothing else better to listen to than 80s Funk
80s were easily the best decade of the last 50 years. Remember when people liked to have fun? 😁
Agreed. Even though I would add late 70s also

This my favorite Bar-Kays record of all time fun still bumping it 2020 Love The Bar-Kays they've been around 50 years that is magical I love😎😎😎😍😘😇😇🤠🤡

Freaks Show The Greatest Show in the world.......
ANYBODY FROM SUR CALIFORNIA FROM THE CITY OF WHITTIER TO EAST LOS ANGELES THAT CRUZED WHITTIER BLVD AND FRIDAYS TILL SUNDAYS HAD TO HEAR THIS SONG AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES AND IT STILL HITS HARD
This song and Midnight Star's "No Parking on the Dance Floor" sound eerily similar.
Yep! And body talk deele in the beginning of the song
Don't forget about whip it too!!!
This song is by far the best of the three though. Should have crossed over more, along with Sexomatic, the 2nd single. That and "Can I" by Cashmere would have gone over well with mostly-white pop radio if they'd just given it a chance.
It does
This was released the year after No Parking... ya’ll want to guess who copied who?
Dopest dance song ever... never gets old.
Just watched Breakin. Went back to my childhood. This track is out of this world 👌
