DELFONICS: LA LA MEANS I LOVE YOU

[Dactuck]

It's crazy. The same way I listen to Jay-z ,Wayne, and EM, is the same way my Pops listens to the Delfonics, the O'Jays, and the Spinners. And Stevie. A family just got closer.

[whodat310]

I've always loved this song out of Philly. Delphos rock!

Hopefully the kids of today will hear these guys sing it. It's splendid.

[xxAxelsDeath]

[nyblr257]

My favorite group of all time. i was a young boy of 11 or 12 when this was hit and it sounds even better to me now at 54. Thank you for posting it.

[xxxWarriorGoddessxxx]

My parents told me that this were the first song they danced to when they were in high school in '68. I also agree with your description as well and I was born in 1980, this is why I listen to mostly old school.

[kinagrannisfan209]

@xxxWarriorGoddessxxx i was born in 78 and my parents allways listened to the oldies and will allways remember them daceing when i hear this beautiful music

[nyblr257]

@kinagrannisfan209 You are so fortunate to have parents who share their music from their younger days with you. Cherish every moment of it as i believe you do.

[JoshQ124]

Music is one of the very few things that unites people of all colors, all religions, and all backgrounds. This song in peticular, is one of the best examples possible.

[chrstianmom]

ultimate chill out tune classic i never get tired of listening to this stufff motown foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rr,

[Haseo190]

@chrstianmom Not to be a nit-picker but the Stylistics and Delfonics are actually part of the Philadelphia sound

[pimpdaddyhammer1]

Ghostface rapped over this, and I love both versions

[BLJackson1983]

This use to be my mama's favorite oldie. Miss you mama!

[amormaree]

@BLJackson1983 My grandmother and grandfather both loved this song and Im happy they were here to share there music with me...I may only be 14 but I do know good music when I here it...RIP grandma(also happy birthday grandma) and grandad

[sk8freakisaac]

[cwbcbass]

After all this time,it stills hit a nerve

[NoElixirs]

Lloyd did a great job sampling this. Did he bring you here?

[Larrygallis]

@NoElixirs what song is that?

[NoElixirs]

@Larrygallis "She ain't you". It's pretty cool

[jamahlPATI]

Llyods version brought you here ? thumbs up :)

[Annbosguy]

This tune stands out all on its own , and has passed the test of time with flying colors. It came out in my college freshman year- right after the "Summer of Love", and one of the coolest things about it was even the hippies never turned the dial when it played. Still awesome, William, and thanks.

[TheSoftballLove]

[DaveTheSamurai]

@tamerswan Everyone wants one of my Myer's rum and Coke's. It just makes the music even better snuggled up with a honey on a late night by the fire looking in the stars with her.... Yeah I 'm going too far.

[speedman536]

wow! when I was 20 I would listen to oldies also n I would hang out more with people older than me n now Iam 46 n still listen to this music. music back then had meaning so real you can hear it in their voice.

[spininlike360]

see people of the older generation had it so easy... they made the music that they wanted and didnt have coperation feeding them what is music .. if a young guy wants to make it in the music business these days he can only make a certain type of music .. bless the older generation

[95rosealex]

7 people are on crack!

[95rosealex]

LLLLOVVVEEE THIS SONNGG!♥

[IRunzthis]

This song just brought tears to my eyes. It's so beautiful... the chorus is simple, yet says so much! My mother/father were so lucky to grow up in an era of music that was full of true talent!

[rebel2131000]

[dmxbusta]

[leoshiajr]

[brandela95]

jackie brown!!!

[QW5ub255bW91cw]

this reminds me of the 90's when i was a little girl and my brother was a "gangster" lol but old school gangster,the ones from the 90's and he used to fix his impala car with this song on turn up, with his white muscle shirt and his pressed pants and shiny buckle and addidas he used to lisen to all kinds of old school music like this like, angel baby from rosie and funkdoobiest and stuff..ahh, nostalgic :) :(

and i wondered why i liked this..

[dreid1500]

Classic, when i heard this again, I was trippin cause it took me way back when I was around 5 and my mom played this like it was her only song at the time. Boy memories.

[QW5ub255bW91cw]

@dreid1500 i feel you :)

[Fight4NewYork]

MR.ROARKE OF NEW YORK PAYING RESPECT 4 A MASTER PIECE...FIGHT4NEWYORK..WE COMING 4 THAT RADIO PLAY!!

[scottybroker]

Rumor has it that when they recorded this, they did it in only ONE Take. Recorded perfectly. What a song and song group. You kats are still smooth.

[gcfan803]

Same for me! It's classic and I love that part in the movie...

[abuBakr97]

Where did we turn the corner where it was no longer acceptable to say "I love you". There was still violence on the ghetto in the grab for money but it was NEVER hip to be violent as it is now. God help us all...

[swordvr34]

true feeling and emotion uhh love it!!!!!

[musicmanfaraway]

classic , absolutely amazing , thanks for upload , please see my upload , im searching for a song , do you know what it is ????

[shyboy3s3]

[boombapswag92]

@shyboy3s3 obviously but y even bring up their name? those 2 chumps are faggets posioning the young minds, and they need 2 be put 2 rest, along with illuminati and all the freemason pussy's

[shyboy3s3]

@boombapswag92 true



[sweetnoots]

@boombapswag92 Please, If you can't say something nice, don't say a thing!!!!!!

[boombapswag92]

@sweetnoots why dont you wake up and learn about whos controlling this world, and free yourself from this fake "reality" you have been taught your wholelife like the rest of us, you hear the new music kids listen 2, its the government work made by design to control the minds of the masses along wiht television, magazines, movies, you name it

[mjj1003]

i love this song. i love all oldies music!!!!

[Wolf251982]

[Jebbi1956]

I remember this from high school. Never gets old.

[iamgooberz]

Im here coz of CROOKLYN

[hollidayevery]

I remember this song becoming a hit in the late 60's and this SOUND was unreal and amazing. The sound of the drums was so pronounced, without being overly loud; Thom's string arrangement was awe inspiring, and I've heard it said that he wasn't even super confident of his arranging skills at this time. Even after 40 plus years, this song sounds fresh and breathtaking.

[generationaluv]

Long Live Nic Cage! He made it his own...and now the cascade of thumbs down! hurraaaaayy for me everyone, hurray for me! 

[jaymitch23]

Am I goin crazy or does the quality of this mix sound good as hell!!!!!! 70's my ass.

Im shocked.

[DaveTheSamurai]

This is the music you can relax to and enjoy a cocktail; which right now is a Myer's rum and Coke. Ahh that's music!

[75crowebar]

nice find grew up on this stupendous music

[skaterdj67]

damn this song is beautiful!! this is the era where artist actually sang how they felt about a woman. im 20 i love listening to music like this from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, like i really enjoy it, i actually dig for artists i never heard before on youtube, then i hit the record shops, im just a different music listener from kids that are my age, and i enjoy being different. so thank you mom and dad for showing me this type of music when i was a kid :)

[jussmittin]

@skaterdj67 im feel the same way u do, so young nd missed out on good music when it first came out but @ least we do kno wut it is tho.

[parkerit]

@skaterdj67

can't say so much but

good luck you true music listener

viva true music and viva you!

[SoliDeoGloria2008]

@skaterdj67 Mama didn't raise no fool,huh? Hahaha. Same with me ;)!

[RAWKNtoni]

@skaterdj67 Same here! I thank my mom and dad for sharing Smokey Robinson, The Temptations, The Delfonics, The Whispers, Blue Magic, The Four Tops, The Stylistics.....the list just goes on.

[PanchaLindsay]

 old classic love it

[PanchaLindsay]

very old classic i have to imit i love this song

[Paid4byJesus92]

what 5 ppl could NOT like this? i was born in '76 but this music,70's and early 80's were the best times I remember!

[sierracuban]

THERE WILL NEVER BE A MUSIC INDUSTRY AS THE ONE WE KNEW BACK IN THE 1960'S AND 1970'S.........THANK GOD I WAS BORN IN 1953 ! AND THAT I GREW UP IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA........

Sierra Cuban, Miami, Florida

[jlmusicfan57]

@sierracuban,

You've got 4 years on me sierra and you're so right; this song represents when music was just that back in the day - music! I feel fortunate to have grown up listening and treasuring the music of the late 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's. The music of today - I just can't deal with that type of NOISE!

[missjbb123]

Way back when, part of when music was music!

[kingrob29]

Like 742!

[87gpowell]

MUH FUCKAS USE 2 LOOK @ ME CRAZY WHEN I BUMP THIS IN DAT PEARLY WHITE THANG ROLLIN LIKE SHIT OFF THE LATE NIGHT CRUZIN DEM DC STREETS, LLS #OLDSOUL

[donkameron]

I guess it's good that it introduced this music to a lot of people, but I'm sick of seeing Family Man comments everywhere.

[craigfromnewcastle]

@donkameron

aye

[iappreciategoodmusic]

So I was in high school 1970's and engaged to my husband when the Delfonics were pretty popular with this song. Nice times! (BTW) we are not married now but still good times!!
