Hi guys, I just wanted to share with you, that The Delfonics sang this song live at my class of 1969 graduation prom. They had just started their career about this time✌🏻.
Watch old movie like that like the five heartbeats temptation little Richard it seems like time we're simpler love we're stronger wish I was back then love old school music and movies things were more fun and more serious
.........----------****** Delfonics one of the GREATEST GROUPS OF ALL TIME ********-------------........
Dude! Dooooood! So lucky. I apreciate great musicians.
Awesome
What school and location??
I was 12 years old when this came out. It was one of those songs we "slow danced" to with the guys we had crushes on. My favorite is "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time." ✌️🎶💙
Love them all that I've heard but Didn't I is almost funny. There weren't playing...
I was 12 when this came out, too. I know what you're talking about.
This song come on old school love song CD back in the day
Me too. My sister and I used to sit on the steps and listen to these songs on "Soul Night" on the radio. Sweet times.
Asia & BJ, you’ll love their "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)", "Ready or Not Here I Come (Can't Hide from Love)" and
"I'm Sorry”!
Don't forget "Hey Love"!
They always sounded like a 50s band but they brought deep soul to 70s audiences. Perfect in every way. And if you like this check out another Philly band, The Stylistics, another great Philly band. Several hits in the 70s, and my favorite has always been Betcha By Golly Wow. As always you guys are the best and I love y'all. 🥰♥️👍🏾
This was definately a mid yo laye 60s sound.
Wrong! Late 60s that started the 70s soul sound.@@fancy4865
The Delfonics were always an outstanding group with lots of awesome songs.
1970s music at its best, what a decade from music! The Delfonics along with the other groups were so instrumental in our lives back then. Their music stood the test of time love this song love The Delfonics
I was lucky enough to grow up with these golden oldies. Best MUSIC EVER! 🎶 ❤❤❤❤
The Delfonics have a large catalogue of good songs. Didn't I Blow Your Mind is the biggest of them, but they have many others to enjoy including Break Your Promise, Ready or Not and many more. Their sound remains unique and love songs were their specialty. I enjoyed seeing you both get into this classic jam. I hope you do more Delfonics soon.
Didn't I Blow Your Mind is my jam along with Hey Love and For the Love I Gave to You.
@@Donyale6230 I don't agree-I think this song is their best-by far.
@@jessieball6195 I agree it is one of their best. This is one of my mother's favorite songs.
This is what a love song should be and feel. Everyone needs this kind of love.
He wrote the song for his newborn child. The baby would say LaLa all the time. He assumed it meant I love you.
This song was played in the background of the Five Heartbeats but they didn’t show anyone performing it.
Yes! And also Didn't I Blow Your Mind was also in the movie.
Slow smokey soul music. Stellar vocals and awesome harmonies.
Love these type of songs by so many great groups : The Delfonics, The Dells, Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes, The Stylistics, The Jarmels, Blue Magic, The Drifters, The Impressions, Brenda & The Tabulations, 4 Tops,The Chilites,The Main Ingredient,Little Anthony & The Imperials, Isley Bros. ,The Manhattans, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Bloodstone, Shep & The Limelites, The Floaters, just to name a few .
@Eric Gerena "I'll Never Hear the Bells" by the Originals! Heaven!!!✌️🎶
I love the other bands you mentioned, too!!
@@subwaygoddess1 The originals did the bells
@@jimmiesmith5811 oops! I edited my reply!!
You hit it on the mark, partner!!!!!
Also Black Ivory
Man, I remember calling my local radio station and asking the DJ to play this song and dedicate it to a girl that I had a mad crush on back in high school. God but those were such fun times.
OK youngsters, allow an old schooler to inform you: This came out when I was a teenager, SO this song was part of the soundtrack in The Five Hearts movie; This was NOT the Five Heartbeats because the Five Heartbeats we're a fictitious group loosely based on the TEMPTATIONS. LA LA Means I Love You put the DELFONICS on the map in 1968! The is no such group as the Five Heartbeats - The Dells soundtracks we're also featured in that movie. As with many movies, soundtracks are featured - In Jackie Brown The DELFONICS songs loomed large... Man! Your generation surely missed how much men truly loved WOMEN... And we loved them right back 😉💎🌹
I can relate, a 50's baby here!! "Pure undiluted classic SOULDIES! 👌
Robert Townsend said in a interview that everyone thought the Five Heart Beats movie was about the Temptation. He said it was based on the Dells
These love songs are supernatural. Filled with passion, wonderful voices and sweet lyrics.
The Delphonics were....William "Poogie" Hart, Wilbert Hart and Randy Cain. William was inspired to write this song by his baby son. He would respond to his dad by saying La la la la. William then figured that his son was trying to say I love you, and so the song was born! The Delphonics have a great body of work! Check out Break Your Promise, Trying To Make A Fool Of Me, two of my favorites, but there are so many more!
i love this era in black music history. the strings the harmony and the falsettos this period is a vibe. the only thing better is the actual video from this period. 70s black male groups were the best. thank god for youtube and you guys
The era of this music needs a return...family values, and just the culture of family in general.
lol...all of American music is Black American music
Brown skin people, aren't so-called, black. It's make believe, it's brainwashing.
Thes guys were a 60s sound.
THis band is a class act! Who can resist this?
Talent always comes to the top. Pure gold!
This song brings back so many great memories. I was about 10 years old at the time but had older siblings who played this single all the time. There’s nothing like old school R&B/Soul music from back in the day😊👍🏼….
They were one of the greatest groups of the late 60's to early 70's. They were a big part of "The Philadelphia Sound" which included groups like " The Stylistics, Blue Magic, Harold Mevin and the Blue Notes with Teddy Pendergrass, and the Three Degree's." For a time in the 70's "The Philadelphia Sound surpassed Motown as the predominate Rythm and Blues and Soul sound in the Black community. These gentlemen were revered in the white and Hispanic community back in the day too. Their music was featured in various movies including the movie "Jackie Brown" by Quentin Tarantino. Note: This song "La-La Means I Love You" was featured in the movie "Family Man" with Nicholas Cage singing the song in the movie.
Melody, Harmony, and Soul.
Came out in 68, loved it then, still do . One of the most beautiful songs ever,! 1968 is probably my favorite yr for music. This is Philly Soul which I really dig. DIDNT I BLOW YR MIND THIS TIME is just as fantastic in 1970.
The Five HeartBeats was base on a real R&B music group, the group was call ( THE DELLS) and you should check out their songs OH WHAT A NIGHT and A HERT IS A HOUSE FOR LOVE.
Asia you was thinking of the DELLS sung the sound track for THE FIVE HEARTBEATS nott the DELFONICS . LOVE Y"ALL.
Loved the Delfonics, Chi Lites, Al Green, Marvin Gaye. I can go on and on about how great MoTown and Soul was in the '60's and early 70's... Beautiful is what this music is.
This song was played as background music during one of the scenes in The Five Heartbeats. But neither The Five Heartbeats nor the Delfonics actually performed the song during the movie.
Brings back so many memories. Love this song.
I always loved this one. Such a talented group.
Well done my friends,this was released in 1968,part of the Philadelphia sound.The song was written by William Hart and Thom Bell.William Hart was the lead singer,Thom Bell was a Philadelphia songwriter and musician He conducted the orchestra in this song.Thom Bell was the man who wrote for the Stylistics in their early days,he also wrote songs for Ronnie Dyson and the Spinners.He is legendary Philly songwriter and musician.Speaking of the Delfonics,here are some other songs you can listen to, Lying to Myself,First Thing On My Mind, I'm Sorry,Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time,I Don't Wanna Make You Wait, I've Got Everything I Needed With You, Oh My Love and Don't Throw It All Away. You just could not go wrong with this group.
The movie “The Five Heartbeats” were a fictional singing group; however, a real singing group “The Dells” were consulted during the making of the film!
Great movie!
This is one of the great love songs from the late 1960’s ; a timeless classic! I have slowed danced to this song many, many times!
This is a sound that will neverrrrr get old..... Beautiful
Love this song
The Ballads from the 60's and 70's were Awesome. Like the Delfonics, The Moments, The Persuaders, Chi-Lites and Blue Magic.
Damn I remember this song, grew up listening to type of Motown classics, I remember my older brother and sister playing this 45 record
I was in Jr high school when this was out and I LOVED IT! They were my favorite group , Somebody Loves You Girl, Break Your Promise, Didn't I Blow Your Mind, Tell Me it's a Dream and so many more
One of the greatest R&B songs of all time. Classic, Legendary group .
In The Five Heartbeats movie this song was played during the "shy brother" scene which took place in the diner. The Delfonics were not in the movie and the Five Heartbeats did not sing this in the movie.
Released in 1968, I first heard this on CKLW radio, 1972-1973. 60s & 70s R&B hits like nothing else. Even as a kid (around 10), I sensed how special this song was the 1st time I heard it - the 🎶La la la la la la la la la means 'I luv u'🎶 .
This song is everything for me I’m 52 years old grew up with amazing music my family was a lover of all different types of genres. This song is in my top five favorite songs of all time! His almost begging to her and preaching his love to her oh my God I fucking love this song so much! Literally have goosebumps even writing this. Not to mention the beautiful falsetto
Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time) by The Delfonics is a must !
We had serious Love Songs back then. This takes me back to basement parties with blue lights. Slow dancing with my honey. Such great memories.
William Hart, the lead singer just recently passed away on July 14th 2022 at the age of 77...

Awww my oldies slow dancing to this music💃🕺🎶🎶 nice memories that just make me smile😁🥰
You can't experience The Delfonics without hearing... "HEY LOVE"... Both of you will be mindblown!!!
I almost lost it when The Notorious BIG covered Hey Love😊 in his way. Still makes me laugh.
BJ you are so right. Man we used so many songs back in the day to rap to the ladies. Worked most of the time!
Great pick to react to. BJ said exactly what I feel with this song and others like it.
The song was originally done by The Delfonics at Sigma sound International recording studio in Philadelphia Adrian and BJ you just learned something new today have a blessed and beautiful day and happy New Year
This is one of the great classics. I was about 12 or 13 when this came out. It was magic then, and it’s magic now. Didn’t I Blow Your Mind This Time is another real classic by them. Less known but also great is Ready Or Not, Here I Come.
In my day we used to have “Social” at different friends houses. It cost a quarter which got you in and you got chips and kool Aid. I heard this song and I went NUTS !!! I went on to be in local bands and when we played this song , the girls went crazy. Definitely a bump and grind song. This group, The Originals, The Temptations and all Motown made me appreciate the human voice because of how high or low in range one can go. My playlist is mostly that era music. I’m sure your parents can relate. Thank you guys.
Y’all made me subscribe to this channel because of this reaction video. I am 30 years old and 1960s R&B soul music is unmatched. Thank you for this, now I’m about to binge watch y’all channel ✊🏾💯
This came out in 1968, and it was the beginning of the Philly soul sound that would come to dominate the 70's.
Another great Philly soul band from the late 60s-The Intruders-Cowboys To girls-a must hear!!
" Cowboys to Girls ".
You just brought back a good memory. Forgot about that song 🎵
Writer of this beautiful song (William Hart) says his new born son at the time influenced the title for the song. His baby boy verbalized "la la la la" which immediately moved William to interpret it as i love you. Wonderful reaction this classic Delfonics song, Asia and BJ.
Oh my gosh.....delfonics, oldies but goodies.....danced to this at many a school dance. They have sooo many other hits too! You should check them out.
70's soul music was the best
The song was just playing in the back ground. I believe the scene was from the Shy Brother routine in the club.
Another great song from the Delfonics is Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time. The 5 Heartbeats was loosely based on a group called the Dells and one of their great songs that you might recognize from the movie is A Heart Is A House For Love.
I remember when Dick Clark from American Bandstand said Didn't, I Blow Your Mind by the Delfonics was his favorite record at that time it was released. He was introducing them at on the show at the time.
Those basement walls hold many secrets because of these classics!! Music That I grew up on!! Mighty 70's!! #Throwback⬅️
Great Old Tune brings back many fond memories our band played this one in every gig in the 1960's
In the five heartbeats movie, it was the Delfonics singing. They were just playing the song in the background. Just part of the soundtrack
One of my favorites from my childhood. The adults played it all the time.
This was a killer song back then. The benchmark romance song coming out of the late sixties. The Delfonics and so many other great groups also were on the scene. Your reaction was typical to those reactions back then. Can t deny beautiful music - no matter the era.
The "Five heartbeats" is one of my alltime favorite movies. The Five Heartbeats didn't sing the Delfonics song in the movie. The Delfonics song was actually being played on the juke box in the background while the Five Heartbeats were sitting in a restaurant.
I think these guys were the Godfathers of "Bitter Sweet Soul." Produced and arranged by Thom Bell and company at Sigma Sound.
To me this song epitomizes the Philly sound. One of my favorite all time ballads.
On The Jackson 5 "ABC" album, they do a great cover of this song.
All you kids that remember growing in the 80's ask your parents about this band, they will get a smile on their faces and probably go to their bedroom.
They song from the heart, and that was the Delfonics singing .
It’s loosely based on the Dells from Chicago. But it also incorporates a lot of the old school music singing groups.
I saw The Delfonics in person and they were fantastic!!! The lead singer, William Hart, had an incredible, beautiful voice and a whole lot of charisma!!
They are my favorite group!!
The Delfonics was the first musical group that started out at Sigma sound International recording studio in Philadelphia and then came The O'Jays And Then There Were The Whispers And Then There Were The Stylistics and then there were Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes and other groups followed
In the movie Jackie Brown (Pam Grier) they played the other famous Delfonic song 'Didn't I Blow Your Mind''
You guys have got to hear The Jackson 5's cover of their songs. Young Michael is awesome. The Delfonics are in a class of their own.
True “Blue Lights In The Basement” stuff right there🎼🔥😏
Eddie Hollman sang with the Delfonics and in 1970 had a solo hit with "Hey there Lonely Girl", great song
Great Philly Soul
Always enjoyed this group soooo much! Yes they also brighten up my day and take me back in time to listening to their music on on radio! Could you please react to Bee Gees “Will you still love me tomorrow”
Yes , youngings , this is what I grew up listening to . Dude the house party’s . This type music is what made me love music.
The song you heard in "The Five Heartbeats" is the song "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time" by the Delfonics.
My dad used to sing this to my mother all the time. They're both gone now but I'm sure he's still singing it to her.
The Delfonics have the Philadelphia sound popular in the 50s and early 60s along side the Motown sound. I know this was released in 68. I was 20 and deployed at the time this came out. I miss these sounds. How do babies get made with today's 'music'? This is hugging your lady on the dance floor music, where you get up close and personal. Yes, BJ, when I was married, I could put a song like this one one the stereo, slide into my wife's arms, sway with her to the music, and change the whole mood of the house.
Didn't I blow your mind this time is my favorite Delfonics song.... ❤️
It was the Delfonics singing in the five heart beats
The harmonics are outstanding.
only in the 70,s real soul sadly never to be repeated, delfonics, chi-lites, stylistics, al green, etc,etc, time machine please
This song put the Delfonics from Phila on the map This is soul music the pathway to inner peace of your soul
Love it When I Request a song Asia has been looking for these songs are a very special moment in time growing up in south central LA .
It is The Sound of Philly. Check out the architects of the Philly sound. Songwriters and Producers Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff. Also Thom Bell. Great songs with great artists. The catalogue of the Philly sound is one of the best.
I was lucky enough to see them live in Boston in 1968 at a place called The Sugar Shack. It was kind of unique, I was in my last year in the Navy and three black buddies of mine ask me (a white guy) if I wanted to go see the Delfonics, I said sure! It was a great show, glad I got to go.
I had to click when I saw the song my older cousin is the reason I know this song. Love love it!
That right there is GROWN folks music!
The song is playing in the background (maybe on a juke box) when they were in the diner doing the shy brother routine.
The song was played during the movie as background music in a club. Heartbeats did not sing this in the movie. But the song was played.
The LEGENDARY Iconic Delfonics
The Delfonics with the first musical group that started out as sickness time International recording studio in Philadelphia and then follow the O'Jays and then follow the Stylistics and then follow Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes and then follow Billy Paul
I saw an interview with Barry Gibb where he said the Delfonics was a group they liked growing up- the original falsetto sound! This song is also in the Christmas movie Family Man with Nicholas Cage which is so good!
That song was playing In The back ground when they were in the restaurant after the talent show
She reminds me of my self listening to the Delfonics.🥰🥰🥰🥰
