@Dac Tucker she came up with that title after almost dying whilst giving birth - very powerful lyrics
This is the after Christmas Holiday song lol
32 years later, if you're watching this, you're a legend.
Absolutely 👌
You too bro 💯
Has it been 32 years? Strange, this chorus has been going through my head lately. I didn't look this song up, it just appeared under recommended. Brings back memories when I was young and carefree.
Look at the clip, it is timeless, sounds like it could have produced nowadays, 32 years woow
Still at it!!!!!! Was 5 when it released but still banger like a mf.
I'm using this song as a theme as I'm recovering from an illness.
Back to life, back to reality. No more being sick and depressed, lost in a nightmare of wanting to curl up and die.
God help us all.
hugs sending lve from nairobi kenya
Music is so powerful- hope this fantastic song is helping you! Sending peace, love and happy days your way😊❤
@@mesalily-TeHWoRld thanks much :-)
Bad tune dis!🙏🏼🙏🏼🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🏾🙏🏾👍. Remember it well...
Good for you!!
My youth! I will listen forever!
CZcams is the closest we have to a Time Machine. The emotions and memories flood when you hear certain songs. You can almost remember what the air smelled like when you hear a nostalgic song. Shout out to 90’s kids
Hi 👋
My favorite use of the internet. Music can transport you back in time.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!
Couldn't have described it better myself. 😉
Back then I went clubbing every Saturday night.
This was my moms recovery song. My mother clean from heroin in the late 80's and she would have this on repeat. R.I.P. mom
That is so touching. I'm glad she was able to overcome. What a good memory that song has for you.
@@pamelarickey6557 i can literally feel her spirit when i play this song ❤
Zakira, your comment tugged at my heart strings. R.I.P to your mum
sakira ray your mom is alive reborn and young in spirit

Damn..it is 4:30 am and I can't turn this off. I miss this music. What have we become that quality soul/funk is missing from the air waves.
Wow it’s 4:46 am and I’m listening to this good music right now
Everything goes through me anyway 😂
This is the kind of song that wherever you were driving you cranked up the volume and everyone agreed that was the right move.
This song came out 34 years ago and it is still a musical masterpiece
Jeeez, is it that long 👀
@@gdfgggggLol. Yes 😂
100!
1989 ??
@@typhlocube9359 Yes nau. 34 years ago. Duh-uh!
0% nude
0% swearing
0% drugs
100000% talent
the lost art that will never return aslong as social media present
Ooooh yesssss
Aye
Major facts! 💯
And lyrics that make sense and not saying "nigga" every other word and calling yourself an "artist".
Who ever is listening in 2024 you know what time it is🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hi
It’s time for me to hit the slopes ⛷️⛷️⛷️
🎼Back to life, back to reality 🥳😻🚀💃🏻 (I wasn't even born yet when this song is released 😹) but I love it😻🚀💃🏻🧡🙏
I'm listening❤
This would be a perfect party song
The dancer's name is Wunmi! She was in my creative arts class at City & East London college, as an arts & fashion design student. I remember her quite well. Slim, stunning and extremely talented. The whole Soul 2 Soul movement came out of another movement called the Madhatters in North London, pioneered by Trevor Nelson, who became one of the UK's most notable DJ's. He was my school mate at Kingsway Princeton and we kick started house parties from my apartment & house in North London, all while in college. We loved what we called Rare Soul in the 80's. Before we all knew it, our movement spread across all of London and underground parties. Jazzy B used to DJ a lot and is also from my neck of the woods of Finsbury Park. I remember the last house party where Jazzy B was the DJ. Before we all know it, Soul II Soul was born and BOOM! That's the skinny from an incognito fellow. They used to call me Prince haha, because I dressed like him. I can tell you all, it was the greatest time to be alive for all of us in the 80's ❤
She's very talented as well
I really appreciate you sharing this! It sounds like you were right at the heart of it - amazing!
Beautiful.
Love this! Thanks for the comment. I'm so happy I grew up in the 80's as well- what a great decade😊
How magical.
This is one of those rare songs that completely takes you back to that year like for real.
Lisa Stansfield does that too...
very true , it's like a time machine .
3rd Gunman. They both exploded onto the charts that same year.
My sister owned on cassette Lisa Stanfield and I had this monster jam.So like could family does.
we shared.
Her voice and the violins are just awesome.
these as we all know were some of the best songs made in the mighty 80s!
@Blessed Survivor I love the keep on moving song
Caron Wheeler ❤️
If you have soul at all, you know what she's talking about.
A true work of art. A hundred years from now this will still be inexplicably dope!
For real 💃🤩
absolute truth to say the least ❤
Absolutely, I was only 2 when this was released and I think this is one of the best songs ever made. It gives you very deep feels in your soul.
*Will dancing while stapling his Malcolm X poster in the Fresh Prince of bel air.* 👌👍
Finally a fresh prince of bel-air comment im sick with everyone talking bout little mix
LOL, was wondering how far down i'd have to scroll until i got some Fresh Prince lovin'
Right ahahaha
For real, I have never even heard of this mix dude?!
Who is this mix anyway?
I'd give ANYTHING to go back to these days! GREAT times, GREAT memories, GREAT music!
I feel you but hey let's march forward with great music, memories and create more memories. I was 19 on first holiday abroad in Cyprus and this song without fail takes me back there each time.
Me too!!¡!!!¡
So true!
Absolutely...
MANNNnnnnn... 4realz !!!!
LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!
Soul II Soul was the blueprint of my parenting years. I love this jam and it brings back those trying and true years of being a mother for the first time, Such a wonderful time, My daughter Milaya is now 37 years old. where did the time go. Thankful for all of it!! praise God!!!
Amen
57 years old, I've just had a dance round the living room.
I've still GOT IT!!
Such a brilliant era, I miss it every day.
I honestly read "I've just had a chance to dance round the living room" the first time, and then I was like what??? )))) Yes, I agree, it was a brilliant era, and I also miss it every day!
Get it Tom yes you still GOT IT
66 here...
However! Great Post.
All you need to do is listen to the beautiful music 🎶 to get back. That and have a long walk outside in nature 💚💐☺️.Music is my medicine 🥰
So much culture in this video and song. I love it so much.
Whoever is listening on May 22 2024, you're a legend! ❤️
RIP Melissa Bell (lead singer). She passed August 28, 2017 😔. Thank you for your wonderful music, your legacy lives on!!!
Song Wars on this song the leader singer was Caron wheeler
Song Wars RIP indeed, but Caron Wheeler is the lead on this song though.
Song Wars 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Alexandra Burkes mum
NO!!!!!
This song was ahead of it’s time, a true masterpiece.
it's timeless
Legend 🙌
We are nothing compared to those times 🤨
Yesssss☺️🙏😎
Realist lyrics and good vibes. ☝🏾
I remember shaking it up at Panama Joe's on Danforth in Toronto to this song, timeless is correct.
What's crazy is this is lowkey a Gospel song and regardless I'm here for it ❤
Wow really??!!
yes, I am glad i am not the only one who noticed this.
What was the original Gospel song please?
To my big bro R.I.P. I remember you taking me to a party where they played this, it was a hot summer's night and a bbq in a huge garden. This had just been realised. The DJ kept playing the intro for at least ten minutes then saying, "hold on, rewind" playing it over and over again (we played musical statues every time the dj stopped the intro to rewind it again and again). We danced to this tune so hard (after all the dj made it last for almost 20 mins and it was pure record decks at the time). I played in the garden and house until early hours and then you gave me a piggy back home where mom was so vex with you because you kept me out so late- I would give anything to go back there now and this song will always remind me of you
Wow , the nostalgia. I cry for times I never lived bc the world is so fucked up and it’s not going back to what it was ...
What a beautiful memory, may your brother rest in peace 💗
💚
Respect to your brother. R.i.p
If you like this song, y’all should check out my New Jack Swing mix…

NEVER!!!

Ever!
You never need ...................................
👍 nobody makes it out of life alone. Thank you for your wise contribution. One of my favorites and I'm WELL over 60. Thank you 💕 for the dance, when I was Young.
I miss these times she not half naked or twerking just showing her pure talent and she is beautiful these new age female artists can learn a lot from her and this song is a classic let's get back to these times
True
true that brother
It’s crazy how a song can immediately take you back to a life that is long gone.
The memory doesn't go though, that's the beautiful thing.
Life goes on and we have this music, gurl, let's enjoy!!
Sheels1976 yep takes me back to ‘89 that starting as my girlfriend then wife.
This song is always going to make me think of 7th grade gym class. The class was split into groups, and each group had to do a dance routine. Almost everyone chose either this or Pump Up the Jam.
FACTS! This song brings back sooooo many memories. GREAT ones!
We had no idea of what good times we were living in back then 🤗 stay strong
truth
Word
💯
I did. 😎☯🛸☮
true that!
The movie Belly brought me here. R.I.P. to DMX
Maybe a handful of songs today will still be poppin 35 years later from now! 80’s & 90’s best music era periodttt!!!!
And the 70's 😊
Yes indeed! I was a teenager in the 80’s and I loved ALL music! It’s just not the same anymore. 😢
Love this British Music Gem
They just don’t make music like this anymore. Seriously the best
Agree a thousand percent
Do you also like the track, colour of sun rays, epic track. X
@@tracynewton3083 totally agree ! It’s amazing
I DEFINITELY AGREE!!!
This is why i don't listen to any new music from the present nor watch any new movies, its all $h1t!
Black British excellence 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Most definitely 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Im happy you mentioned that singers sounding African American is excellence. very fascinating
@@EearlSBell Definitely have to honour African Americans for their unique style and contribution to Black music, they are trail blazers! No need to fight amongst ourselves, we are all connected to Africa and each other ❤
@@honeybee7855 these are English not American oh and the message off soul too soul was against deviding people on race.which us why there are white members off the group.
@@EearlSBell They sound British to me.. UK 1989.
Music is the strongest thrill in the world. Music reminds us of every period of our life. ❤🎉❤🎉
One of The Best Songs of All Time PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!
I personally think this is one of the best tracks of ALL time.
+tangled55 I agee 100 %.
+tangled55 Me too! It's early 90s bliss!
CassieJazz96 Agree! :)
stephen dwyer?? please explain Stephen.)
theres always one....
Back in the 80s and 90s people used to dance so freely and carefree, what a superb song ❣️
used to dance so freely and carefree, How true, how sad, how regrettable...
I still do, you're only here once ✌❤
Yeah
Absolute timeless classic
@@johncooper3636 pp0
I remember buying this back in 89 and wearing out the cassette. I played it continuously. Well the entire album.
Man music like this that still sounds amazing in 2024.shows how this era of music is one of the greatest of all-times I was so blessed to be born to this era frfr.I feel sad for my sons generation that will never have music like this to enjoy 😁😁😁
The people in this video are the most astonishingly beautiful people I have ever seen. The way they look, move..goddamn.
Right????
YES! Thank you. I can watch this over and over.
I agree. Where and when did we miss that fantastic party at the sunset ???
Laurie Outlaw Beautiful indeed, sexy as F* and fully clothed!
JUST learned that this song is LITERALLY about Karen Wheeler 'dying' on the table, having an 'afterlife' experience and being brought 'Back 2 Life'! Knowing that gives this great song an even GREATER meaning! The lyrics hit different knowing she's petitioning The Most High to "do whatever He Wants" with her life!
Me after watching dude on instagram😂
That was a VERY interesting anecdote.. thx for that.!!
@L3Nstrum3ntalz
.........and yet another conspiracy theory that people believe is true.
@@LannyOne1you can find the interview where she openly discusses the near death experience. Researching is free.
I didn't know that's what the meaning of this song until right now. We never quit learning new things
I was born in 1995 but I can feel that 80s-90s were the best years to be in your 20s
Never gets old!
Sure doesn't a banger of a tune.
❤❤❤❤🇩🇲💃🏽🕺🎈👑🎙️🎼🎶34 years later and I’m still rocking to Soul 2 Soul ❤❤ 2024
35 days without a drink! This makes me smile. Grateful as hell to be sober.
I hope you're still sober! Congrats. I know the feeling 💕💕💕
I'm in my 11th month it feels great winning that battle each day 🙏
Good job you guys, I'm coming up on a year and a half sober, don't really miss alcohol. Keep it up.
@@jegr3398 Day four again, but I'm here and each time I'm less attached like you would become less attached after each break up with the same toxic partner until one day you're officially done.
Congrats.
52 years old and just realized this song is about a 2nd chance after near death…feeling wanted by God but being snatched back to reality for a 2nd chance at life 😮🤯
I just found out as well 🤯
Please explain. I've heard this song forever, but I don't see the connection
54 and realized the same tonight and spirit says, play this song..and here I am!!!
I don't think it's going that deep for me, but your interpretation is all that matters.
@@harrisond8132 the writer Caron Wheeler wrote about a near death experience in which she nearly passed on but was sent "back to life" to fulfill the rest of her mission on Earth..
After reading your reply I looked it up.. I appreciate your response. I never confirmed what I believed it to be before.
Still love it , May 2024
The music of today can never follow up on this. Always a good song, jam until eternity.
I’m 24 and this was one of my moms favorite songs. I was out today and just heard it when I was with her brother. She died last year, this song will always be close to me.
That was your mom saying hi !
Sorry for your loss, may the creator and the ancestors bless you .
Your mum had great taste...and if you are here... SO do you...
☝🏼🤲🏼❤
RIP to your momma! much love
This song HAS IT ALL..... bit of techno, classical instrumental, hip hop, dance, house, but most importantly.... R&B.
Because Black ppl created all those Genres
You're absolutely right!!!!!
A little fusion raggae infiltrated in the flow.
@@chuckanya9108 yup
YESSS
Sisters were so natural and beautiful.
why dont people make music like this anymore??? this is so amazing
People do. But the industry is a mess and bad decisions abound.
Now its sll about the money. Sure they get the best songwriters, the best musicians, and the best producers. It sounds great but there is no soul left. 😔
Because no body cares.
Cuz the top props up folks like Beyonce who can't sing, write, dance, or play an instrument.... So then you gotta ask yourself how did someone like her get ahead of actually talented folks, and you probably don't want/ won't believe the answer to that
cuz now they like to play around with a computer instead of gaining some skill.. same with movies
"Back to Life, back to Reality". Needed now in 2021 more than ever!
Back to life has always been a quiet anthem in my life. Every time I repair myself after something rigorous or harsh...I will forever recite Back to life and Keep on movin. Rocky himself couldnt have said it any better. True songs.
Would you like to watch my freestyle dance? It's my first time !
Amen
So god damn true!
Yepp, too much Matrix, too many demons trying to tear us appart.
BELLY anyone? Best movie intro ever! First time hearing the original, in 2024... Love it...
The song comes back to life every time I listen to it!
I was 18 when this song came out. What a brilliant era. I blinked and now I’m 50. Such nostalgia this song brings me.
Same 💪
I was 17....uugghh good times 😩
I'm 18 right now, and I like it a lot
Don't worry kid I'm 60 and still loving it!
I'm 64 and still loving this song and an unbelievable era in my life. I feel very blessed.
Back to life, back to reality. Those words always got stuck in my head when I was a kid.
cool
Hey!!!!!!!!!! I have known this song since I was 3 now I am 6!!!!!!!
+Lisa rose Milton
I am 9
yes
I am 10yr and I have had this song stuck in my head for 10 weeks straight
Today years old when I found out this is a gospel song
Don't get it twisted b, it's for junkies after a bender 😂
Love my big bro he passed in 96 aged 32 believe its nearly 30 year's, he had this on vinyl, my first tune I played on my first set of decks
one of many songs that brings me back to a greater time
Me too, the good old days ;)
same here miss those days .....the good old days
9494 1869 Something about some rhythms we can't never forget, like, "Is hot in Here", by Nelly, 'In Da Club", 50 cents and this one. I can't never forgets those like the %th symphony of Beethoven lol
Ugh me too. So nostalgic it's depressing.
bitch you were probably listening to white people music
This gave me goosies!!! I used to dance to this with the gal pals! Still great too...really vibes.
Still jamming to this legendary classic in 2024..
Damn. Whatever happened to Soul II Soul? They were amazing and had a very unique and distinctive sound.
Henry Reavis they're still around. You have to look.
to black? this is england not america!!!!! bell end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aisha Horsey It's Caron Wheeler and she's not dead.
You are absolutely right. I just Google it. Her name was Do'reen Wadell. When I read about it years ago in the paper, they did have Caron Wheeler as the deceased person. Next time I will research first. Thank for the correction
Such a sad story, so gifted.
Those violin licks are so nice.
Ikr😍😍😍
Check out the violins in Anniversary,

You had to be fresh AF to get in that spot! Gators, Dope gear was mandatory!! No sneaker, No pants sagging, No athletic gear! Top Shelf Grown folks only!!
No murders, No Haters, phat Whips!!
Had to be on point!
They played the Hell out of this kut when it dropped!! Great Times!!
Word!
They are members of the reggae philharmonic orchestra, the girl in the green top and red pants to the left is stunning would love to know who she is
Cowbell Level
Einer der besten Discosongs überhaupt. Wird bald 35 Jahre alt. Top Gesang, Klasse Melodien, super Keyboard Samples.. Ein echter Klassiker.
The ultimate after an AWESOME vacation song. Every time I'm enroute back hm after a vaca this song plays in my head
I was a young man living in south London when this came out. Now I’m old and living in Australia but it seems like yesterday. I blasted this just now in my car and it still sounds so fresh and relevant. Simply wonderful.
I'm sorry for what your government is doing to you all down there mate. You all down there in Oz are in my prayers. I hope this world can stop this worldwide tyranny that seems to spread faster than this flu.
@@justpassingthrough3166 I’m in Western Australia and life is great. Save your sympathy for those closer to home.
🙄👌
@@isitchicken why you leave London???
@@kyreejones438 For a beautiful lifestyle with plenty of space, sunshine and beaches. I come back to London all the time but I don't want to live there any more.
I NEVER REALIZED WHILE BEING YOUNG THAT THIS WAS A "MASTER'S PIECE".
Master piece, ya I see what the artist was going for here. It's got depth, meaning visually stunning. Superb
I’m finally coming back to my reality and I’m very grateful that God’s grace and mercy had me covered with the blood of Jesus Christ and he truly protected me from the sins of my old man and his mercy is setting me FREE because of one scripture that I read and believe : Corinthians; 10:13 and I pray 🙏 it every day to continue to be set Free
I’m very happy that I can be myself again but I’m still waiting to see Almighty to return me from the dead and to see him again
They don't make music like this nomore!!! Timeless! Still listening to this in 2024
Still loving it in 2019.

I'm 52 now but this song was one of my absolute favorites back in the day. I had just got my license around this time so it got plenty of airtime. Brings back great memories burning up the road in my dad's old 67 Ford F100.

ADEER oh I remember that episode 😂✌️ love it.
This song is about her near death experience, so she's telling God how ever do you need me.
I don't like rap music, but this kind of music makes me appreciate it a little bit, i remember when this song, more than 30 years ago, and makes want to go back on time, even i was very poor back then.
This is an appropriate song for today. Lets get back to life and out of this alternate reality.
Amen my sister"😊💋🙏🙏
Thank you! :)
