I grew up listening to this song like crazy. My mama loves this song and use to play it all the time when we were cleaning up the house. Now I love it!
Why would it be bad if you came here because of an TV show? I mean, I listen to the radio all day long. It is even playing when I am asleep. But I have never heard this song. The channel I am listening to plays a lot of music from the '60 to '90. I think it is GREAT a TV show can make you like music. You want as much people as you know like the musice you like. why would you be mad if people find out about this through Glee or something else?
@theloverofMJ no, you are absolutely right. why is it a shame that you have known this song because of a tv show? it means that this tv show introduces the new generation to some amazing music like this one. It doesn't matter how you knew something but that because of that you now are able to enjoy something you didn't know before.
@carol3793 Hey, nice to see that someone agrees with me ;) You've finished my sentences, haha! Enjoy listening to this song and all the others you find out because of what you see or hear anywhere!
(Personally) I don't give a shit if you found this song because of the movie "Looking for Mr. Goodbar" (like me) or because of some TV show that butchers classic songs (but at least makes kids listen to the original versions). But, for Pete's sake, do you want a ribbon for finding it via "Glee"? SHUT THE FUCK UP about it already (or just hit the like button under one of SEVERAL comments about "Glee")!
if you came here because of a TV programme, its a shame that TV programme taught u something that you should have known a long time ago..... late starters.
ahahah this song was used on glee but it wasn't covered. you can hear it in the scene at the gay bar when kurt dances with blaine. it was awesome and funny! XD
Screw Glee, thumbs up if Mimi's and Indiah's lip sync sent you here. Take note Kurt, the queens know how to be real gay. WHOS WITH ME, NOT GLEE, BUT RUPAUL BOUGHT ME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Klaine brought me here, I was looking for songs to listen to from glee 3x05 (Just saying best Episode EVERE, and not just cause of Klaine sex, mainly cause of that though) and then this came up, so I typed in Glee dont leave me this way, and It didnt come up and I didnt know the song, so .... Here I am!
@ilovemeryl now all you young kids realize the great music your missing these days!!! That lady gaga crap is a bunch of CRAP compared to the hits of the 70's.... she's an idiot who is rich cuz of stupid teenagers who have no taste!!! SAD
2. I only listen to mainly music from the 50's and 60's because it's my favorite era.
3. I am a huge Lady Gaga fan.I think she has more talent,imagination,and creativity than any other artist of today or many artists from any time period.Too bad people go by her appearance and don't take time to actually sit and listen to the lyrics of her songs or the messages she sends out to the world,because if they did,maybe there would be less hate and more love.
Where in my sentence did I say I heard this song through Glee? I said I came to this song because I had just heard it on Glee. I first heard this song when I was a little girl, and I listen to disco all the time, so I promise, I'm not insulting Disco music in any way.
This song was so popular in it's day. The beginning of Disco really taking off and becoming a phenomenon. The dance floor was packed when this played.
Possibly the best disco record ever. Works just as well as a soul song. Thelma took this to #1 on the US Pop Chart for 3 weeks in 1977. Still holds up after over 30 years.
DONT READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTULLY WORKS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMMOROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE HOWEVERIF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO THREE VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN TWO DAYS. NO,YOU`VE ALREADY STARTED READING SO DONT STOP. THIS IS SCARY. PUT THIS ON FIVE VIDEOS IN THE NEXT 143 MIN. WHEN YOUR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCRREN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SCARY CAUSE IT ACTULLY WORKS
I had totally mistaken this as Diana Ross & The Supremes. I feel like a dumbass, considering the fact I grew up with this song along with all the other folk, funk, disco, soul, surfer-rock, swamp-rock, and acid rock from the '60s and '70s that I grew up with. Yes, my parents were hippies. I don't know why I thought it was Diana Ross. I guess that ole soft Motown voice fooled me. Either way, great song. Makes me thing of the soldiers in Vietnam, even though it was released in '77.
In my useless opinion, this is the most underrate song of 70's, may be in the history of pop music. This song was WAY before its time, and will continue to stand the test of time.
@kptrojans I know right. The reason I love the disco/funk/soul of the '70s is all due the fact that it really was just a continuum of the '60s (my favorite decade) with fresh, new songs. I could have sworn that this was recorded in the '60s. Kind of like how Burning Love by Elvis Presley sounded like it was made in the '50s when it really was released in 1972.
Why in your wildest imagination would you dislike this song. I'm a 36 year old white man and I get 100% emotionally involved in this song.... Timeless, funky, and helps me to flash my life before my eyes.
Change a few of the lyrics and this will be a great Gospel song! "Don't leave me this way I can't survive I can't stay alive without your love" now come on down and do what you you gotta do, you've started this fire down in my soul. Believe in me, only your love can set me free, I'm at your comand..... Imagine it a gospel chior blowing up this song.
@Burtowski07 Don't get it twisted! Yes I believe in God but I'm not a saint. I made a comment about a song I used to enjoy and the lyrics and now you're talking shit. Careful little girl, your life can't be that boring that you're still thinking of me........smooches
The fast parts of this song are awesome. Unfortunately, the slow parts of this song detract from its greatness. All in all, this is a magnificent song!

@musick321 I own a 6,5 and 4 string bass guitars. I fly all over the three of them when I when I jam with this song in any key note. You thumb slap that bass guitar tell eternity. Don't let Ostrafairy discourage you!
Love both versions of this song. Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes did a excellent version in their own way in 1975. And Thelma Houston did an excellent version in her own way in 1976 released in March 1977 peaked #1 on the U.S. Hot 100 Billboard on April 23rd 1977
I used to mix this version with Harold Melvins in the clubs back in the day and turned it into a 10 minute track.It went down a storm.Dancefloor was jam packed from start to finish.
@Sawlake and timmchap35: That is part true,but i feel what frank02111 is saying too....it's not just because we got older but it is also because music today is demonic and stupid and too sexual,they go too far today. The standards of music have been dropped. Also i noticed that the avg artist today sounds like crap when you go to see them live. Today's music is satanic to me and that has nothing to do with getting older. I have been able to identify with every era of music but this one.
In my opinion, this is one of the best songs of the Disco era! I remember that it was featured on the movie "Looking For Mr. Goodbar". Thelma Houston delivered the goods on this song!!
The disco duo, Baccara, made a copycat song based on 'Don't leave', called 'Yes, sir, I can boogie.' Thelma's song was Billboard's 460th #1 hit of the rock era. God bless! Hugs to you, sister Thelma!
Look Thelma Houston can sing...but I DO NOT believe she should of beat Natalie Cole "Our Love" for best female r&b vocal performance. people got caught up int he disco tunes. Natalie destroyed that song..and it was raw. this is highway robbery.
FIRST HEARD THIS WHILST LIVING OUT IN AUSTRALIA (WAS A TOP 10 HIT OUT THERE) WHILST WRITING TO ONE OF MY FRIENDS IN THE U.K. ABOUT HOW MUCH I LIKED THIS SONG. SHE PREFERRED THE HAROLD MELVIN VERSION (DONT THINK IT WAS RELEASED IN AUSTRALIA.) ALSO LIKED THE COMMUNARDS VERSION (WHICH WAS NO.1 OVER HERE SOME 10 YEARS LATER.) A GREATDISCO DANCING SONG.
I came here because of Ru Paul's Drag Race Season 3, Episode 4...no likes? Hahaha.

Best disco song in my book.

@Sawlake and timmchap35: That is part true,but i feel what frank02111 is saying too....it's not just because we got older but it is also because music today is demonic and stupid and too sexual,they go too far today. The standards of music have been dropped. Also i noticed that the avg artist today sounds like crap when you go to see them live. Today's music is satanic to me and that has nothing to do with getting older. I have been able to identify with every era of music but this one.

In my opinion, this is one of the best songs of the Disco era! I remember that it was featured on the movie "Looking For Mr. Goodbar". Thelma Houston delivered the goods on this song!!

1:41 where her voice cracks is so HOT! Love 1:10 too. She sings this on the PBS special of a few yrs. ago with Freda Payne, Mary Wilson, Aretha.
Freda is way Hot, Thelma just plain rocks it out!

The disco duo, Baccara, made a copycat song based on 'Don't leave', called 'Yes, sir, I can boogie.' Thelma's song was Billboard's 460th #1 hit of the rock era. God bless! Hugs to you, sister Thelma!

I grew up on post punk and new wave, wasnt raised to be a big fan of disco, but this is without a doubt one of the best songs of all time.

Clubs were alot less full of themselves then. Nowadays the pretension factor is throuyght the roof.

Look Thelma Houston can sing...but I DO NOT believe she should of beat Natalie Cole "Our Love" for best female r&b vocal performance. people got caught up int he disco tunes. Natalie destroyed that song..and it was raw. this is highway robbery.

FIRST HEARD THIS WHILST LIVING OUT IN AUSTRALIA (WAS A TOP 10 HIT OUT THERE) WHILST WRITING TO ONE OF MY FRIENDS IN THE U.K. ABOUT HOW MUCH I LIKED THIS SONG. SHE PREFERRED THE HAROLD MELVIN VERSION (DONT THINK IT WAS RELEASED IN AUSTRALIA.) ALSO LIKED THE COMMUNARDS VERSION (WHICH WAS NO.1 OVER HERE SOME 10 YEARS LATER.) A GREATDISCO DANCING SONG.

Thelma gave this song life; the Communards butchered it.
