More good kc and the sunshine band songs That's the Way", " Shake Your Booty", "Keep It Comin' Love", "Get Down Tonight", "Boogie Shoes", "Please Don't Go" and "Give It Up"
Yes it was. I had no idea who the bands were. I just went to the skating rink on the weekends and danced and skated to the music till midnight. Great fun!
I was born in 71. I feel lucky to have grown up when I did. It was soooo much more innocent way of living. Play was done outside with sticks and rocks and dirt. Mom stayed home with the kids dad was to be feared (if you did wrong). If we said we where bored mom would put us to work, so you would find things to entertain yourself. In 2nd grade we could ride our bikes around town. Maybe you would play a organized sport after school a few months a year. Generally we entertained and took care of our selves we didn't need our parents to organize our days. You were expected to be responsible and if you weren't you alone would suffer the consequences.
Humans are meant to move and KC does it every time. Not sure if you’ve done “That’s The Way I Like It “ ? That one will hurry up the birth of your son for sure
I laughed so hard at that last line, but then I remembered the "extended version". EDIT: For some real baby making Disco music, listen to: Donna Summer Love To Love You Baby original long version (Disco 70s) czcams.com/video/V5AztWseIdU/video.html
@@storbokki371 you're absolutely right! Donna Summer's Love to Love you baby was banned in our boarding school in 76/77 as being too "suggestive"🤣 (and this is India I am talking about!!!)
I was born in 1971 so I remember a lot of this music being brand new. I remember kung fu fighting and Disco Duck when they were brand new good Lord I'm old
The founder and lead singer of the group is Harry Casey ("KC", get it?). The Sunshine Band got its name because the group originated in Florida---the Sunshine State. This awesome group had several big hits in the 1970s on the Pop, R&B and Dance charts. They play funky grooves that make you move!
Its fantastic to see a portion of my generation get out and explore the real music of the golden days. Some of the greatest artists to ever live honestly
To the rest of the commenters.... We've all heard this music before. But it is a genuine treat to see a young lovely couple react to the same music, no matter if we did it the same way 40+ years ago. You can only listen to a song once for your first time. But to see them react, it's like we are living it all over again.
Being a child of disco and great music of the past, I thoroughly enjoyed the young folks listening to all the great things we always loved and now it’s coming full circle, i’m smiling as I write this😁😁😁😁
Back then "boogie" meant dance. KC was one of the best dance bands around. Their beat was considered a lead in to disco. Most of their stuff is upbeat and funky.
KC was the "Original" Fly White Guy. From roughly 1975-1980 he and his Group The Sunshine Band had Five #1's. They did The Midnight Special, American Bandstand and one of the few White Artists to do Soul Train. Their Number Ones were "Get Down Tonight", "That's The Way I Like It", "I'm Your Boogie Man", Shake Your Booty and "Please Don't Go". "Keep It Coming Love peaked at #2. Boogie Shoes was featured in Saturday Night Fever and Boogie Nights and his Songs were also featured in Commercials and the Melody for "Shake Your Booty" was featured in Goldmember. He also wrote Spank & Dance Across The Floor for Jimmy "Bo" Horne and "Rock Your Baby" for George McCrae. This show was from TopPop, a Popular Music Show from Denmark.
TopPop was a 70s/80s Dutch music show, presented by Ad Visser. They had many American and British artists on the show and if they couldn’t get them to the Netherlands, they would film on location, like in this clip from KC and the Sunshine band.
@@davidtanner4262 KC definitely preceded Wild Cherry if you're referring to the disco precursors. It was KC and Rick Finch who developed the seminal disco-like tune "Rock Your Baby" by George McCrae. That was released in July 1974, about a month before the Average White Band's AWB album that featured the most definitely disco "Pick Up the Pieces." I think it's fair to say that the disco transition was in the air in 1974 and that KC and AWB were pretty much concurrent.
They are always together. The lead guys name is Henry Wayne Casey who is the band's founder. They have been together since 1973 and are from Florida. They still do shows to this day.
Rob !!!!! your reaction at the 1:58 minute mark is absolutely priceless. It tickles me to death to see how you react to this groove. I actually attended a few concerts when I was a teenager in New Orleans with KC and the Sunshine Band on the show back in the 70's. It was such a beautiful time back then. Imagine an open stadium, beautiful sunshiny weather, and nothing but the best music ever being played live on stage. It was so beautiful.
I'm so glad you got to hear this - KC was "Da Man!" I'm 83 now, but I still LOVE KC and his band. You guys really got me dancing also. :-) The 70's was GREAT! I wish you guys had been there also. We could boogie down - no question about it. LOVE IT! And, IMHO, you two are totally COOL! NO question about it, Peace my Brother and Sister. Love your channel.
Y'all definitely need more Sunshine in y'all's life... "Get Down Tonight", "Boogie Shoes", "Please Don't Go", "That's the Way I Like It", "Shake Your Booty", etc.
With the possible exceptions of "Please Don't Go" and "Boogie Shoes", IMO they were bubble gum disco...meh. Now Tavares for example, was a super disco group.
Yes and boogie shoes my my my my my boogie shoes! I got a story about this?? I went to a balloon fest in NJ once where KC and the sunshine band performed. afterward I was just drunk enough to get KC to sign my boob.
Yes all together all the time, this wasn't a collaboration. They were funk for sure but also fit right in the disco era. Their songs were all about getting ppl on the dance flo!
Picture this guys...me and my girls are at Gatsby's disco in Cincinnati, Ohio in the year 1977. They would open with this song and all would hurry to the floor before the beginning where someone in the song counts 1-2-3 and everyone on the floor would hold up their fingers to count it and then start getting down. Oh the memories!
They had so many hits back in the day! "KC" lives a few blocks away from me. I ran into him not too long ago in a shop having one of his outfits worked on for an upcoming show. All these years later & he is still performing!
Yep! Me at 15! A long long timmmme ago! Just had 15 shots in my spine, but KC and the band has me groovin’ anyway! First time on the channel and I love it!
@@bjdefilippo447 But my favorite memory of this song: my aunt, cousins and I were all out at a local club when this came on the jukebox, and after a few bars, my aunt leaned over to me and said: "What wonderful lyrics." LOLOLOL
Had a friend who met KC and said he might have been the nicest guy he ever met. I've listened to KC and the Sunshine Band even more since hearing that.
Man, that horn section was TIGHT! I remember my mom listening to these guys on the 8 track stereo and I'd roll around the house roller skating. Such a great, great group. Memories!
This band was so frickin' COOL!! He still tours too! He has been here in my area 2 times in the last 10 years and I am so mad at myself for never going! He is such a legend. He brought black and white together and made magic! KC is so amazingly talented
This is probably further down in the comments, but "Jungle Boogie" by Kool and the Gang is another banger from the same era, it was also given 2nd life by Quentin Tarantino in "Pulp Fiction."
If I’m ever in a crappy mood in the morning (& that’s a lot these days!) I should blast this to get me going! Yes I lived thru the 70s as a kid/teen. It was the best music ever ! ❤
I was thirteen in 1976 when this song was playing on the radio at a beach party in Waikiki Hawaii and everyone was boogie down to the music of KC and the Sunshine Band, and now everytime I'm listening to it again, it's taking me back to 1976 (Happy Time). Thank you Rob Squad Reactions you both are amazing MAHALO!!!!
Here’s a little Wikipedia info: “KC and the Sunshine Band is an American disco and funk band which was founded in 1973 in Hialeah, Florida.[1][2] Their best-known songs include the hits "That's the Way (I Like It)", "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty", "I'm Your Boogie Man", "Keep It Comin' Love", "Get Down Tonight", "Boogie Shoes", "Please Don't Go" and "Give It Up". The band took its name from lead vocalist Harry Wayne Casey's last name ('KC') and the 'Sunshine Band' from KC's home state of Florida, the Sunshine State. The group has had six top 10 singles, five number one singles and a number two single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.”
Growing up we would hit the roller skating ring every weekend when this song started everybody on and off the ring was dancing like mad people were hitting it hard . Those were the best year's.
Some of my favorite jams from back in the day were from KC and The Sunshine Band. I actually worked in a disco in 80/81. This was the 70's!! Boogie meant dancing basically. More of their songs: Boogie Shoes Shake Your Booty (my greatgreatnephew's favorite song) Get Down Tonight That's The Way
KC & The Sunshine Band was so popular in my generation. One of my favorite bands growing up. I'm so happy to see this younger generation discovering Disco music. lol 😂
“Strawberry Letter 23” by The Brother’s Johnson. is a great groove for a reaction. Annnd “Groove Line” by Heatwave. (Ooh, ooh) All the songs listed are great for a 4th of July playlist, especially if you want to see the older folks dance. Which, who doesn’t?
Oh my heck. I can't believe you said "Strawberry Letter 23". I love that song so much. I put my iphone on random and it comes up all the time because I always listen and groove.
Two big thumbs up to you beautiful youngsters! It's absolutely wonderful watching your delight as the song unfolds! Thank you for allowing me and everyone else to enjoy your reaction to this and other songs! Love from Michigan!
I was born in the 60's, teen in the 70's. God gave me a gift. To see the BEST music and bands of all time that everyone wants to mimick today... 51 yrs later. I may be older but my past lives on. I am blessed
They’re playing across the street from me tonight opening for the B52s! I remember being 8 years old and dancing with my mom to all of KCs songs…they stay classic to this day ❤
Was a great time growing up listening to their music. Boogie Shoes, Get Down Tonight, Shake Your Booty, Keep it Comin’ Love, That’s the Way and so many more.
KC was one of the two MOST smiley performers in pop music history! The other one was Toni Tennille of "Captain and Tennille." Both of them always seemed to be genuinely happy and really enjoying performing. Their smiles are infectious. Besides reacting to more KC and the Sunshine Band, you might also want to react to Captain and Tennille songs Love Will Keep Us Together, Do That To Me One More Time, and Muskrat Love.
"Get Down Tonight" and "That's the Way I Like It" are great, too. I attended a wedding where the band performed, and everyone from ages 2-85 were dancing.
I'm glad you guys are rediscovering these classic bands. It looks like a lot of the younger generation has a great appreciation for the older music. I grew up listening to KC back in the day and the first song I heard from them was That's The Way (I Like It). Keep doing more reactions.
We ALL need a little bit of this today! Great to see you two chair dancing to this - pure joy! Many more from KC, as well as others from this period, to dive into. Keep it going, we will be here. 😁😁😁
OMG. A blast from the past. I was a kid dancing around with my tambourine. This was my era. I love what you guys are doing and you are getting a musication. I get goosebumps often seeing your reaction to the stuff of my youth. Back then it was raw voices. No synthesizers and computer aided pitch control. Just raw talent. The 70’s and 80’s were da bomb!
"Boogie" back in the day, meant dancing, "shaking your bootie" ect. This song was about a DJ :) Fun fact about the song :) " A specific DJ who influenced this song was Robert W. Walker at Y-100 in Miami, Florida, who was the first to give the group's hit single "Get Down Tonight" airplay. So Walker "was the Boogie Man that brought all the funk and the good feeling and the vibes to the people every morning," Rick Finch told Songfacts."
I am so glad that y'all listening 2 K C & the Sunshine band! They are another group I love! K C change the game when you came out & his horn section out of sight!!! GOD bless this channel!!!
The 70s had the best music hands down, imo. Rock, R&B, Disco, Country, all the genres. I love that you took me back to my pre-teen years and the music I still listen to today. I think you guys are absolutely adorable. You always make me 😊
When I first heard this, as a 9 year old, the opening bars seemed spooky and ominous. Then it broke into the jam of jams that had me up and dancing like nobody's business. Fast forward 20 years, and Rob Zombie comes out with the spooky version of the song, and I couldn't help but nod and think, "Yeah, you heard what I heard in those first few bars." An iconic song, by an iconic band; I don't trust anyone who doesn't appreciate KC and his Sunshine Band on at least some level . . . Because these folks are the real funkin' deal.
If you like this you'll love Boogie Shoes.....used to go roller skating every Sunday when I was a kid.....everyone jammed to this....and Boogie Shoes 💥💥💥💥💥👍
KC was not just your "Boogie Man"... he was THE man in the 70's... Crankin' out hits AND breaking down racial barriers !!! 🤟🏻🤟🏿
Whenever you hear a song by KC and the Sunshine Band you just can't help but wanting to get up on the dance floor and shake your booty.😂
Yes Yes Yees!!❤
That was before they raised the "barriers".
More good kc and the sunshine band songs That's the Way", " Shake Your Booty", "Keep It Comin' Love", "Get Down Tonight", "Boogie Shoes", "Please Don't Go" and "Give It Up"
Absolutely!
These! 👆👆👆
I agree 100%
What about, I like it ?
Oh my god. The soundtrack of my childhood.
Hands down best time to be a kid was the 1970s. Every single song was amazing!!
It truely was, the good ole days!👍✌️
Yes it was. I had no idea who the bands were. I just went to the skating rink on the weekends and danced and skated to the music till midnight. Great fun!
I'm super jealous. I was born in 83... my sis were born early 70s.. I wish I was born mid 60s lol
Totally agree, and we got to be teens during the 80s music. Crazy. Appreciate it even more now looking back.
I was born in 71. I feel lucky to have grown up when I did. It was soooo much more innocent way of living. Play was done outside with sticks and rocks and dirt.

Maybe you would play a organized sport after school a few months a year.
Generally we entertained and took care of our selves we didn't need our parents to organize our days. You were expected to be responsible and if you weren't you alone would suffer the consequences.
"Boogie Shoes" still gets me dancing and I'm 69 years old!
Yes 👍🏻!!! I’m also 69.
Have to say it’s my only excessive when this and other 70’s comes on ..love it..😊
Go for it….
Humans are meant to move and KC does it every time. Not sure if you’ve done “That’s The Way I Like It “ ? That one will hurry up the birth of your son for sure

YES! and I LIVED them!!
I don't have to imagine it! I lived it! 😍🥰😍🥰😍
The dance floor always fills up when KC is jamming.

I would say Wild Cherry or Average White Band preceded KC. But, I love KC

Should have been 6 but Debbie Boone and her horrible song wrecked that streak
I love Amber's expression when KC starts to sing! Instant disco smile mode.
Back when the world would just dance instead of complaining about everything.
Yep, a "Hand-Jive" flash mob would be so fun to participate in!
Ain’t that the truth...
Yeah man, as we used to say back in the day
quit complaining. 🤣
Amen 🙏
“That’s The Way I Like It” was one of their biggest hits.
"UH huh UH huh!"
@@EchoRider515 I like it! Uh huh uh huh
Huh huh
That's what Goldmember said! LOL
The group has had six top 10 singles, five number one singles and a number two single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
One of the most underrated bands ever. They never got the props they deserved.
I love to see you two young people enjoy the era of music. It was the best ever I still groove to this music 🕺✌❤
You to just keep on truckin, thanks for the music.
They are always together. The lead guys name is Henry Wayne Casey who is the band's founder. They have been together since 1973 and are from Florida. They still do shows to this day.
They have different band members today. KC and the Cuban bongo player the only original of the band left.
Yes! KC is one Florida man we can all be proud of!!!😁
@@lamusiclover2264 I did not say Harry was Henry. Someone else did.
@@sheilanethersole5859 I'm sorry. I thought I was replying to that person
His name is Harry Wayne Casey not Henry
Disco had a moment - and KC, with the BeeGees and Donna Summer, delivered some truly classic dance tracks.
I would love for disco to have another moment. Bring back disco and funk! I hate current pop music!
What a great time to be alive❤️ I wouldn't trade it for anything 😊
Disco was more than a moment. It was a movement.
I've been meaning to recommend Donna Summer!!
The only reason why disco died was cus of racist shitheads

"that doesn't sound very upbeat .."
hold my platform shoes
“Get Down Tonight” ! That’s my favorite by them... it’s so great.
Yessss 👌👌👌👍
Yes!!!!!! Soooo much fun and funky.
Mine too!
Earth Wind & Fire's song "September" is a good groove.
Yeah good one I think I'm going to listen to that myself right now
Hell yeah 😎
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Or just anything by Earth Wind & Fire. They're all good!
Yes, indeed!

Y'all definitely need more Sunshine in y'all's life... "Get Down Tonight", "Boogie Shoes", "Please Don't Go", "That's the Way I Like It", "Shake Your Booty", etc.
With the possible exceptions of "Please Don't Go" and "Boogie Shoes", IMO they were bubble gum disco...meh. Now Tavares for example, was a super disco group.

They will go absolutely nuts😂😂
Yes and boogie shoes my my my my my boogie shoes!
I got a story about this?? I went to a balloon fest in NJ once where KC and the sunshine band performed. afterward I was just drunk enough to get KC to sign my boob.

That might be the coolest thing I've ever heard.
This is why Disco isn't dead !!! KC and the Sunshine Band represent Disco so well . Disco is a mixture of funk and rock .
This band ruled the Universe. "Keep it Comin'. Love" is one of my faves.
Me too! Always puts me in the mood to move.
@@bjdefilippo447 But my favorite memory of this song: my aunt, cousins and I were all out at a local club when this came on the jukebox, and after a few bars, my aunt leaned over to me and said: "What wonderful lyrics." LOLOLOL

Well his song ......"Boogie Shoes " is an absolute must!!! 💯
Um, "That's the Way I Like It." :)
And "Keep It Coming, Love."

That's the Way(I Like It) is their signature tune.
Uhuh uhuh...
Boogie Shoes, Shake Shake Shake, That's the Way I Like It... KC and the Sunshine band won't let you sit still, guaranteed!
Almost 50 yrs later...and this song still rocks!!! I love it!!! So I drink wine to compensate!!!!
This is probably further down in the comments, but "Jungle Boogie" by Kool and the Gang is another banger from the same era, it was also given 2nd life by Quentin Tarantino in "Pulp Fiction."
Check out the Muppet version. You won't be sorry.
'Boogie' means to dance during disco days. Disco icons. KC And The Sunshine Band have many upbeat hits. Always fun.
My mom's car had an 8 track...and her car was a Grimlin. Those were the days.
Earth Wind and Fire!!! Funk, horns, saxophone, all of it! “September” is great to start with.
I'm partial to Let's Groove, myself.

Yes, and be sure and watch the live Midnight Special video.
Ditto!! Love Redbone!!

They are considered a Miami band ( Hialeah is a suburb )
“That’s the way I like it!”
I actually saw this live in Toronto at a huge outdoor concert. They were amazing live. Every girl had a mad crush on KC the singer.
KC and the Sunshine Band - "That's the Way" is arguably the best!
Lit!!!🔥🔥🔥straight fire Disco beats...K.C. never gets enough respect, he had everyone dancing in the 70's. So many hits, every song was a hit.
This was great at the skating rink! KC was the man!
Loved pretty much everything KC and the band did. Amber, if you like horns, you'll love Earth, Wind, and Fire.
You're right you can't go wrong with some EWF.
Definitely check out Earth, Wind, and Fire. You could choose any number of songs, but at some point, check out the song "September"
“Shake your booty”, another good K.C. & The Sunshine Band” song.
Gotta listen to Boogie Shoes. It will be on your workout playlist forever.
Growing up we would hit the roller skating ring every weekend when this song started everybody on and off the ring was dancing like mad people were hitting it hard . Those were the best year's.
Some of my favorite jams from back in the day were from KC and The Sunshine Band. I actually worked in a disco in 80/81. This was the 70's!! Boogie meant dancing basically.
More of their songs:
Boogie Shoes
Shake Your Booty (my greatgreatnephew's favorite song)
Get Down Tonight
That's The Way
You've gotta be roughly my age. We were young toughs so we just HAD to hate Disco, but hey, looking back, it was fun!
This song is played at every wedding and party to get people on the dance floor , everybody of my generation knows it.
"Keep It Coming Love" is one of my all time, top 5 songs
LOVE KC and the Sunshine Band. That's the Way I Like It ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg! Great song! Brings back memories when I was a little girl dancing around to this band's music. They have some great dance jams. Disco fun!!🕺
If you ever need a positive head change put on a disco playlist. It ALWAYS works. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🕺🕺🕺
Always! You can’t dance and stay uptight (king harvest)
KC & The Sunshine Band was so popular in my generation. One of my favorite bands growing up. I'm so happy to see this younger generation discovering Disco music. lol 😂
"That's the way, I like it" was my favorite.
LOL...yeah, we really groved and partied hard to K C back in the 70's. And many other great bands like Earth Wind And Fire. Good times!!🙌🙌
Check out Chic, especially Le Freak, one of discos greatest bands.
“Strawberry Letter 23” by The Brother’s Johnson. is a great groove for a reaction. Annnd “Groove Line” by Heatwave. (Ooh, ooh) All the songs listed are great for a 4th of July playlist, especially if you want to see the older folks dance. Which, who doesn’t?
Oh my heck. I can't believe you said "Strawberry Letter 23". I love that song so much. I put my iphone on random and it comes up all the time because I always listen and groove.
GROOVE LINE Yesssss
Two big thumbs up to you beautiful youngsters! It's absolutely wonderful watching your delight as the song unfolds! Thank you for allowing me and everyone else to enjoy your reaction to this and other songs! Love from Michigan!
If you like horn sections you can't go wrong with anything by EARTH, WIND AND FIRE OR THE COMMODORES!!!!
JUST SAYIN!!
EW&F is awesome! I like "Getaway"!
Don’t forget Chicago
yep!
@@carlosdabdoub6027 Definitely, Chicago!
Disco is my guilty pleasure! KC rocks!
I was born in the 60's, teen in the 70's. God gave me a gift. To see the BEST music and bands of all time that everyone wants to mimick today... 51 yrs later. I may be older but my past lives on. I am blessed
They’re playing across the street from me tonight opening for the B52s! I remember being 8 years old and dancing with my mom to all of KCs songs…they stay classic to this day ❤
Was a great time growing up listening to their music. Boogie Shoes, Get Down Tonight, Shake Your Booty, Keep it Comin’ Love, That’s the Way and so many more.
The 70's had the best songs EVER no matter what kind of music it is. My favorite decade.
You guys Crack me up, I'm 71 and I use to tear the floors up with this song!
I had the privilege of growing up in that era. We had some great music in the 60's and 70's! I'm 66 now but still boogie to this music.
KC was one of the two MOST smiley performers in pop music history! The other one was Toni Tennille of "Captain and Tennille." Both of them always seemed to be genuinely happy and really enjoying performing. Their smiles are infectious. Besides reacting to more KC and the Sunshine Band, you might also want to react to Captain and Tennille songs Love Will Keep Us Together, Do That To Me One More Time, and Muskrat Love.
Ugh! Muskrat love was played everywhere! I got so burnt out on that song!
Must do NEXT: "That's the Way I Like It".
"Get Down Tonight" and "That's the Way I Like It" are great, too. I attended a wedding where the band performed, and everyone from ages 2-85 were dancing.
Back then music brought EVERYBODY together! No color, just fun.
Amber needs to hear the band, Tower of Power, for some horns.
Kool and the gang ladies night
YES! So many great songs and the most amazing horn section ever.
“What Is Hip” has some AWESOME horns!

My dad bought me this album & I wore it out. "Boogie Soes" is another to have you dancing.
This is my favorite KC song! Awesome dance song. So glad you liked it!
Do more KC and the Sunshine Band! That was a fun one! All their hits are good.
I'm glad you guys are rediscovering these classic bands. It looks like a lot of the younger generation has a great appreciation for the older music. I grew up listening to KC back in the day and the first song I heard from them was That's The Way (I Like It). Keep doing more reactions.
We ALL need a little bit of this today! Great to see you two chair dancing to this - pure joy! Many more from KC, as well as others from this period, to dive into. Keep it going, we will be here. 😁😁😁
OMG. A blast from the past. I was a kid dancing around with my tambourine. This was my era. I love what you guys are doing and you are getting a musication. I get goosebumps often seeing your reaction to the stuff of my youth. Back then it was raw voices. No synthesizers and computer aided pitch control. Just raw talent. The 70’s and 80’s were da bomb!
KC and Sunshine Band made the whole world want to dance
You want horns? Tower of Power. “What is hip”. “Your still a young man”.
Oh man, Tower of Power! 👍 I haven’t thought about them in years! J and Amber gotta play “Down To The Nightclub”!
And yes, “What Is Hip” is fantastic, with great horns.
"Boogie" back in the day, meant dancing, "shaking your bootie" ect. This song was about a DJ :) Fun fact about the song :) " A specific DJ who influenced this song was Robert W. Walker at Y-100 in Miami, Florida, who was the first to give the group's hit single "Get Down Tonight" airplay. So Walker "was the Boogie Man that brought all the funk and the good feeling and the vibes to the people every morning," Rick Finch told Songfacts."
Your reaction is SO fun! This is probably the "funkiest" KCSB song. Glad you liked it as much as I did "back in the day."
These dudes were everything in the 70s!!! It was impossible NOT to get up and boogie to all their songs! We all had a crush on KC. Yum!
Disco to me is the fusion of early Rock n Roll with Big Band music, and KC and the Sunshine Band exemplifies this fusion, with a bit of Funk
I am so glad that y'all listening 2 K C & the Sunshine band! They are another group I love! K C change the game when you came out & his horn section out of sight!!! GOD bless this channel!!!
KC & The Sunshine Band = Fun Times! I was 17 when this came out, they had such upbeat songs :-)
The 70s had the best music hands down, imo. Rock, R&B, Disco, Country, all the genres. I love that you took me back to my pre-teen years and the music I still listen to today. I think you guys are absolutely adorable. You always make me 😊
It's called KC and the Sunshine band because the lead singer's name is Harry Casey.
When I first heard this, as a 9 year old, the opening bars seemed spooky and ominous. Then it broke into the jam of jams that had me up and dancing like nobody's business. Fast forward 20 years, and Rob Zombie comes out with the spooky version of the song, and I couldn't help but nod and think, "Yeah, you heard what I heard in those first few bars." An iconic song, by an iconic band; I don't trust anyone who doesn't appreciate KC and his Sunshine Band on at least some level . . . Because these folks are the real funkin' deal.
I love Rob Zombie's version of this song, too!
Great reactions my friends. I can't believe anyone can hear this song and not smile.
If you like this you'll love Boogie Shoes.....used to go roller skating every Sunday when I was a kid.....everyone jammed to this....and Boogie Shoes 💥💥💥💥💥👍
1 of their best was " thats the way i like it." it is just amazing, well worth a watch.
