This was the era when the theme song of a show was as important as the show content itself. Living Single, Moesha, A Different World, Hangin with Mr. Cooper, and The Fresh Prince all had FIRE theme songs! The theme songs used to actually get you excited for the show! It will never be an era like the 80s/90s again.
That NYC backdrop while Big Lez is dancing makes me miss the 90's NYC so much. That 90's NY vibe is something that will never be replicated. I remember when I was 11-14 years old during that time and I would travel alone from the Bronx to Washington Sqaure Park in The Village. My point is every time I here the Living Single theme I reminisce when I would walk those 90's NY streets. I only wish I was a few years older at the time. You had to be there understand where I'm coming from. NYC was different!
moe Harden it means surprise surprise people have awful taste lol... I was a freckled fair skinned little suburban white girl when I watched this too. Anyways, it’s Seinfeld thats the good show in the end above all else
The 90s was the shit.i wish I was an adult at that time to really appreciate and know what it was like in that era.just watching 90s tv shows,music videos,movies ect,make me think about how much fun it would have been to grow up in that era.
Who’s here after the whole Twitter outrage about David Schwimmer requesting an all-black version of Friends like he don’t know that their all-white Friends TV show is a copy of the all-black TV show Living Single 🙄
This theme song hits a soft spot in your heart 💛 Brings back peace, love & happiness. Although I was born in the 90’s (1991) I remember a lot of things especially my parents being baby boomers (real old schoolers). Memories of my oldest brother coming to visit home from the military and watching living color with our dad , bill cosby , fresh prince of bel air , etc etc . I remember this very well. My experience was definitely unique.
The nostalgia. 😭 if everything could go back to the way it was in the 90s and early 2000s. I swear. But I understand that things must change. I swear life growing up in the 90s and 2000s as a kid was everything.
I swear I've heard this song before back when I was much younger, gives me a nostalgic vibe like how the Martin theme song does along with a couple of other sitcom themes. Sounds pretty nice, definitely have not heard it in a long time since my memory's a bit fuzzy towards it. Oddly, this video is the only high quality version I've seen, all the other ones look like they were recorded with phones.
I remember as a kid, didn't have but 4 or 5 channels that picked up. UPN was the station I always tuned into at 6pm started with living color, Martin, Sanford and Son...i would watch it until my bedtime which was at 9pm. Loved all the shows and would love to relive those times.
I was born in 95 and I love all the good sitcoms like Martin, fresh prince, sister sister and Living single. Maaan I wish I was a 20 something in the 90s
Man the living single theme song is one that I will never get tired of. Just a good show all around from the acting and music involved ,real life situations just pure gold ! 💕
Grew up with such great 90's black sitcoms like Living Single, Roc, The Steve Harvey Show, In The House, Martin, Fresh Prince, Moesha, The Parkers, The Jamie Foxx Show, Smart Guy, The Wayans Bros etc. just a special time. Also a time where they actually put some stuff into a theme song instead of a two second title card or some half assed generic "theme".
This is a theme song you can play in the house while cleaning up and dance to LOL you can even play it in your car riding down the street how banging this beat is LOL
Along with Martin, Married with Children, In Living Color, A Different World, Fresh Prince, Roseanne, Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Roc, New York Undercover, NYPD Blue, The Steve Harvey Show, The Jamie Foxx Show, Home Improvement etc.
I'm one of those people who was a teenager in the 90's and never left and remained loyal to the 90's. The TV shows, the movies and the music still haven't been matched by anything else. People were original back then, now all we got is manufactured entertainment these days.
There was nothing like 1990s New York…hell, there was nothing like 1990s America. Living Single was one of the highlights of entertainment of that time. I recently started re-watching the show on Hulu and I swear it feels like I'm 8 years old again in 1996. It was an easier time back then...
Lol, growing up everyone thought that was Max dancing and Synclaire at the end of the episode saying "WooHoo!" an laughing LMAOO those were the days...
Born '91 I remember my mom watching this in the living room heard the song and I was in my room and sang it glue its act like glue my mom would burst put laughing
Oh my god.. i remember my mom would be watching this whenever i was out of school. The intro has stuck with me ever since and watch some of it and loved it
Can't believe I stopped watching this in 2003 when I was in 5th grade. Back in those days, there were so many things to do without a cell phone n being a kid, I actually looked up to being an adult having a family 1 day n doin fun stuff.
Where has the time went!!?? #DAMN Hit different when u was young watching it til now 2020......Fux it I'm still LIVING SINGLE FUX 🤣🤣🤣🤣Take me bacc lmao!
I’m 12 rn and I love this show sm I got it from the library and was like WOW and my mom was soo happy that I got she was like “awww I used to love that show back then” she was like it came out in the 90’s and I was like awwww I watched basically everyone already I wish they still played 😭😀
lol this shit slap....I always thought that was maxine dancing....I miss these times man when me and my parents and siblings were all young....had no worries but school work.lol..aahh good times..

King Solomon Would be nice. I was too young.
King Solomon yeah me too!well I wish I was a adult in the 90's
Bren Williams yeah I was a child too.wish I can go back in time at 29.
Good vibes

I love the theme for a different world!!!!! Aretha did that!
Yes indeed!
what about Jamie foxx show and Martin???
Don’t forget Martin & Family Matters

Hurts my soul knowing we will never experience good black positive shows like this again. I'm so happy I was able to experience this.
Or music ..the black American culture has died ..
Shadowstar Prime black•ish is really good imo
This is a wack comment
Dear white people, Blackish, The get down. All good shows.
KaviGotBars11 but it’s one of the realist comments in this shit
I wanna cry so badddd. My whole
Childhood is gone. Life was so simple . Take me back to the 90s
I would have to agree to that my boy my childhood is gone too time has been flying
Tears 😢 from the nostalgia. People just dont get it. You had to be there to understand.
This was before the world became so dark.

Shouts out to the ORIGINAL version of “Friends”....
Please don’t compare this show with friends. Friends sucks
Fanny Mae 🤣🤣🤣 tell me which show was watched by 100 millions of people around? Living single was trash that’s why it wasn’t popular
moe Harden so that means it’s good? LMAO
Fanny Mae it means friends was 100 times better than living single 😉
moe Harden it means surprise surprise people have awful taste lol... I was a freckled fair skinned little suburban white girl when I watched this too. Anyways, it’s Seinfeld thats the good show in the end above all else
I miss the 90s world☹️☹️☹️‼️‼️‼️‼️I have a hard time moving forward in today’s world!
My favorite part when Regine (Kim Fields) did a saxophone part at the end 😁😁😁😍😍 gets me everytime 😇 #IMissDa90's
😂😂😂😂😂😂😄😄😄
Did she sing in there as well?
@@JuLuvMe nah she never sung
Yep! Kim Fields aka Tootie from Facts of Life still had it!!!
I was born in '89 and the theme song to this show has popped into my head at random intervals for almost my entire life.
Saaaaaame

If the 80's decade was the golden age of music, the 90's was the golden age of American sitcoms and TV dramas
I grew up in the 90's 🙂
90s were awesome. It's true I'd be glued to the TV all day with all the shows on. But I'd also be outside like a MF
I was a 90’s kid it was fuckin amazing! Lol but I also wished I was an 80’s teen
@@bapyongukgukguk2352 70s music> 80s
Who else grew up thinking that was Max dancing?
camp now it was always a black urban myth growing up, lol. Blame the culture
Me lol
K H I did
I always thought that was Max too
I did think it was Max too, until I really looked at the dancer.
Nothing like being a kid in the 90’s , I love my generation of life I swear .
Blessed to be the same age as this show.
Who’s here after the whole Twitter outrage about David Schwimmer requesting an all-black version of Friends like he don’t know that their all-white Friends TV show is a copy of the all-black TV show Living Single 🙄
me! David is insane nowadays
This is how I found out about this tv series. Any legal way which I can watch this show online?
Vasile-Vlad Ivanovici yes, one legal app that i know you can watch it through is Hulu
Vasile-Vlad Ivanovici you can watch it on hulu
Right like how they remaking golden girl .... like we don’t have girlfriends and waiting to exhale...
WHEN YOU HEAR THAT THEME SONG......TAKES YOU RIGHT BACK TO THE 90s....LIKE A TIME MACHINE!...DAMN!....WE WERE ALL SO YOUNG BACK THEN!
Hit it dead on the head took me back to my childhood

I thought you were 1976
This is literally the best theme song ive ever heard in my life! I used to watch this in the 90s, here in Australia
The best theme song ever created💕
Kyhana Chedick fact
Kyhana Chedick no, Martin was
Kyhana Chedick this was just another good song created

Black sitcoms were at an all time high in the 90's, its a shame we dont have the quality or as many shows like we used to have
I miss the 90s it's so many memories!❤

The Toontastic Toon yeah i used to stay up and watch both shows as a youngn. takes me back.
Y'all remember Martin came on then. Living Single, then New York Undercover
lol.. That's was real good TV back then
Yup! NYU also had that fire 🔥 saxophone 🎷 in it’s theme song too!
Thursday Night Lineup
Never saw New York undercover, we had Martin, living single and Good Times, and Fresh Prince, not always in that order
Yes, those were great days back then.
0:05 90s are the best

Then you'd be 40 something today.
Being a teenager in the 90s was the best experience

Man the living single theme song is one that I will never get tired of. Just a good show all around from the acting and music involved ,real life situations just pure gold ! 💕
My mother’s favorite show when I hear this I think of her beautiful smile miss u mommy so much god bless your soul
Aww I hope she’s ok ❤️
NEVER APPEARED ON THIS SITCOM, HOWEVER, I DID GET THE CHANCE TO PERFORM THE VOCAL(S) ON THE "IN YOUR DREAMS" EPISODE!:) COOL!!
Good Job Lisa!!!!
U are an awesome dancer,did u dance in any of Latifahs videos?

❤️
If only there was an all Black version of the show Friends...oh wait! There was! :: cue the epic and memorable intro 27 years later ::
Friends copied this show.
i'll always remember how freakin 90s that theme song was!

I remember getting up from school early like around 5 in the morning and this song being played. Especially on those Fridays
Big lez dancing her heart out love it
Who ever that girl is dancing in the intro can dance 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🔥🔥🔥
That's Big Lez.
@@melanier7309 Yep from rap city.
@@melanier7309 no info of her
Take me back to my childhood 😩😩😩😩
The shows were so much better then ….😩😩 I want them back. 🥰
I miss the 90's so much I could cry. I want to go back so damn bad! If I had a time machine...... boi
The beat slows after the first few seconds. WTH?
They probably recorded this off an old VHS and the tape itself was a little warped from age
Or for copyright
It slows and speeds a little throughout the whole thing.
I noticed it in the show! I've been watching reruns religiously!! Weird that they let it happen.
a lot of early 90s songs have that throughout songs. idky tho
Ah things brings back memories, especially my girl Leslie dancing there. I miss those days extremely.
This is a theme song you can play in the house while cleaning up and dance to LOL you can even play it in your car riding down the street how banging this beat is LOL
LITERALLY one of the hardest tv show theme songs ever.
The nostalgia I LOVE this show so much and it's on HULU nowwwwww. Yasssss
One of the best shows of the 90s
Yessss
Along with Martin, Married with Children, In Living Color, A Different World, Fresh Prince, Roseanne, Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Roc, New York Undercover, NYPD Blue, The Steve Harvey Show, The Jamie Foxx Show, Home Improvement etc.
I just discover I've watched this show when I was a kid in the 90s in Chile!!! Can you believe it?! It was an awesome show
Maan take me back to the 90s !!! 😩😩😩

A better theme song than Friends.
You can't turn back the clock, but you can wind it up again.
MANE QUEEN AND ERIKA WAS GETTING IT🔥 U CAN TELL BOTH KIMS WERE JUST HAPPY CAUSE AROUND THIS TIME LIVING SINGLE WAS THE #1 SHOW ON FOX
This is making me feel like growing up in the 90’s watching this show even tho I was born in the late 90’s.
Hearing this theme songs goes right to my soul honestly, it’s wild. Classic 💯❤️
Black F - R - I - E - N - D - S
Uh hell no! Friends was the WHITE Living Single! Plain and simple.
Lol shut yo lying ass up.
@@duncan3998 stfu
Back in da 90’s was lit asf especially the intro of living single I loved that show
kim fields was fine af back in the day.
Deshawn Johnson I thought Max was the sh**. Loved seeing her in her Power suits w/ the mini skirts.
Deshawn Johnson You should see her on The Facts of Life
Deshawn Johnson She's still pretty!!! ❤️
@@neofutur-ist2662 Bro real talk! Max is fine as shit too
One of the greatest TV theme songs of all time! 🎼📺💜💯🔥
Reminds of those Summer nights in the 90's hearing that come on nostalgia is real
Takes me back to the sunny hot or cold winter days living in Chicago. I miss the 80-90 era. Everything was so basic and more appreciative back then.
90s for me in the chi. I love our city
One of the best theme songs 😍, every time I hear it I dance and my man always laughs and says how cute I am 😂
There was nothing like 1990s New York…hell, there was nothing like 1990s America. Living Single was one of the highlights of entertainment of that time. I recently started re-watching the show on Hulu and I swear it feels like I'm 8 years old again in 1996. It was an easier time back then...
When i was a kid i thought the lady in the background dancing was max
Me too Big Homie
lol..
Dopest theme song. Genuinely loved this song as a kid
I like at 0:24 when Regine pretends like she's playing the trumpet to the beat of the song
I just gotta do it
Lol, growing up everyone thought that was Max dancing and Synclaire at the end of the episode saying "WooHoo!" an laughing LMAOO those were the days...
Shout out to the dancer Big Lez
This theme song slaps hard
Born '91 I remember my mom watching this in the living room heard the song and I was in my room and sang it glue its act like glue my mom would burst put laughing
The Real “Friends”🙌
Just wasn’t the same when Kyle left
Justin Brady yeah
My favorite character. He was smooth
The 90's are definitely
reminisced.
Sad 😔 this show will never air again I miss the 90’s
You got that right in the 90s we had really good shows that were positive in this day and now
Oh my god.. i remember my mom would be watching this whenever i was out of school. The intro has stuck with me ever since and watch some of it and loved it
Gotta be my fav opening theme of any show!
One of my favorite shows as a teenager in the 90s.
Classic 90s nostalgia
Thanks David for giving this gem of a show attention again.

Love the theme song. Watching the dancer in the background cracks me up...
One of the freshest theme songs of alltime. Friends could never.
