  • I love this song I use to tape this song when it came on the radio and when it came on in the clubs I got my John Travolta on lol

  • Nothing will ever top the clubs and classic dance music from the 80's.

  • Heard this song this morning on XM Sirius channel 15 Studio 54 - brought back great memories. Love this song alot - great dance tune for sure? Swing or swing hustle and your wearing a 3 piece suit. By the time the song is over, you're soaked to the bone - insane. Park Avenue - downtown Milw, WI.

  • Great music from the 80s!

    Great memories!

  • the palladium, now that brings back memories, dont forget the funhouse , limelight and the world.

  • I see a alot of comments using the term " i used to..or back in the day ..I STILL do..play this, maby its just me doing it about 5000 times and hanging on to great moments in my life..dancing thru the club and given them that nod..i can be bold as a dancer ..to get 1's attention,,and the drinks seem to be there waiting 4 me to to cool off as a thank-you ..yes 'i like you.. alot!

  • one of my favorites songs !!!!..........dancing it at my favorite club..... le dome discoteque ........ acapulco, mex !!!

  • Love this ..take me back to Fire Island. summer 86!

  • i used to spin this back in the 80's as a DJ (which I still am) and loved this song and so much of the fun 80's dance music. The stuff today just isn't quite the same and so many fond memories! Listen, love, and dance your ass off! :))

  • Danced my ASS-Off @ Rialtos in Chicago on Van Buren and Plymouth Court w/this song,

    I remember this song because of its pure honest.

    One my most favorite songs !!!!

  • One of my best dance songs!!!!! gO TO DANCE!!!

  • 高校生の頃、新宿のDISCOで、よく流れていて、80‘と言う­CDにも、入っていますが、12インチで、聴けなかったので、と­ても、感動しています。

    若い頃の思い出です。

  • i remember back in the days one of my friends love this song too bad he is gone  R.I.P. Gonon ........

  • @tiburon69 I also remember one of my friends loved this song. Her name was Sonia. We used to dance at the Sarak in Juarez, Mexico. It was the best of times. May she rest in peace. Love her. Adrian

  • @facobos1 My sympathies for your loss. My name is Sonia too...danced this in Mexico City and Cancun summer of '86 with my best friend Patricia...great memories.

  • beautiful eurodisco energy totally energetic

  • For a while this was the number # 1 cut in the NYC clubs. You couldn't go to ANY dance club in NYC and not hear this cut. Of course, I remember the Mighty Paradise Garage breaking it first, as usual. Shep Pettibone is one of the premier DJs from NY and the seminal House era and I extend my props for this extended remix

    Keep Bangin!!

  • I first heard in 86 when i was teenager......Next thing I noticed , I was going into the Tunnel , Palladium. ....in NYC.......So glad I was able to experience those days.....cant compare.

  • "What I feel for you is real" dag, when music was music. No comparison to today's music. Come on lets talk about the Palladium in NYC (dancing inside the house when this came on:), Zanzibar in Newark, Odells in B-more, Numbers in DC, The 5th column in DC, Devil's nest in Bronx, Bonds NYC, The Garage in NYC, Club 88 in E. Orange, Central State University (Maurader room), Classics in DC:) Wow! Not the best dancer in the world but it didn't matter. It moved you!!! Just being there was enough:)

  • @Thebenigno8 You so damn right! I searched high and low for this song through limewire...no luck until now! I danced to this one!

  • danced to this song back in 85-86 at the Bachelors Mill, Tracks and the Club House in DC, could never get enough of this song

  • best song ever

  • Vintage sampler pitching kicks my ass.

  • This was my jam back in the dat\y, use to have the 12inch j making tapes in detroit,lol got alot of airplay.

  • THIS ONE GOES TO ALL MY BELOVED FRIENDS THAT I'VE LOST FROM THAT ERA........I KNOW YOU REMEMBER THIS ONE!!!!!!!!! MISS YOU & LOVE YOU!!!!!!! BLANCA.........

  • One of the best!

  • Just another 80's Mega Dicso Classic.

    Can still see all the beautiful women singing it

    on the floor with all the smiles on their faces...

  • Amazing song! Takes me right back to the "Good Old Days" when WPOW POWER 96 in Miami WAS THE SOUND OF ALL THAT WAS GREAT! Driving up & down Collins Ave. with the radio blasting and the top down on my Sunbird....with the exception of NYC - there was no place better on earth !!!

  • This was my Joint Circa 85-86...GO Phyllis!.

  • dance music diva pioneer

  • Danced to this at The Palladium in New York at Keith Haring's Party of Life in 1986...met my partner and we've been together since then. Good times!

  • @orionsecret Thanks for the comment and what the song means to you! :)

  • @johnnyleith I was training with Dean Witter in '86 and went to the Palladium during January of '87. Was in the WTC exactly halfway in its glorious life. I remember people dancing up on enormous speakers. Also the Limelight.

    Matty B. from Baltimore GO RAVENS

  • @orionsecret I miss those days at 54 & Palladium more than anything!

  • I heard this song in memory when I'm 15 years old.

    Nostalgic.

  • j'adore cette chanson , d'ailleur j'aime disco

  • Ooooooh.... that "church" piano! This song was big in San Francisco. I first heard it on the radio in late 1985, but it was popular into 1986. The the dance club DJs used to play it back-to-back with Sylvester's "Someone Like You."

  • i like it

  • kool song

  • mi cancion ...lo mejor de los 80 muchos recuerdos del studio 27

    

  • mi cancion ...lo mejor de los 80 muchos recuerdos del studio 27

  • Top 10 in my book from the classic Disco Days. This song took the dance floor by storm and was truly a great dance tune.

  • Yea, 3:12 to3:50 is the best part. Also 4:20 til 5:00 is awesome. Who sings the Rod Stewart remake of I'm losing you...Is it Phyllis Hymen?

  • she just has a lovely voice...

  • 3:12 is when it gets wicked

  • Classic classic tune

  • Peace, Peace-I have missed you my friend,just me Flo~

  • Geeze...Have'nt hear this in what seems like a million years. Still sounds great. Thanks for posting.

  • Brings back great memories from the Gay Bars in Baltimore (Hippo) Maryland.

  • 1985, later summer, and it's the closing party of a famous Toronto dance club. It's just past 3, and the floor is full, not packed, but just perfect. No drugs, no booze (at least, not me), just pure dancing. And just when I think the mood can't get any better, this song comes on, out of nowhere. I was dancing with Randy.

    If there ever is a moment I'm asked to recall upon dying, this song at that moment would be in the top three. I was transported in the way only amazing music can do.

  • @calvintoronto Hi and thanks for your comments they moved me and I have the same feeling about the moment this song takes me too. This song and American Love on my channel send me back! Thanks :)

  • @johnnyleith Beautiful. I always find that "discp people" share the best memories together in heart and spirit together throughout time. It is wonderful in this day and age. :) Thank you.

  • My friend Ron in NY sent this song to me years ago.. he said he was in a music store, heard it, and thought of me.. I was touched by that sentiment.. I love this song.. it's so full of love and sunshine... Rest in Peace, Ms Nelson... Love to you, Ron, wherever You are.......

  • After over 22 years I've finally figured out who sings this song - only to find out she died in 1998 of breast cancer at only 48...yikes. Well I too was in "dancing heaven" to this song at a little underage, non-alcoholic gay club in Oklahoma City, called "The Wreck Room" and DJ Brent made me a mixed tape with this song on it for $20.00 - it didn't have a play list so I never knew who sang it - and I wore the tape out and any dance floor back when I was 17/18 when this song came on!

  • Classic...80's rocked...

  • Wow...I had forgotten all about this song. Brings back tons of memories of great dancing at Club 13 in Erie, PA, back in 1985.

    Thanks for posting this version!

  • @coaster120 - Yeah Erie - home of Waldameer!  This song is the best. I love it!

  • Baltimore, 84-85 Odells...Pascals..YES!!

    Baltimore Stand up!!

  • This song was a hit at Greg's Blue Dot Lounge in Hollywood, with Johnny Eckhardt in the DJ booth, back in '84.

    She also performed this live at Probe, up the street. TOO HOT!, I believe John Ford did her lighting and sound, Great memories.

  • Very nice song in 80' yrs with very good memory!

  • This song is like a flood gate holding a sea of good memories!

  • awsome tune I have the 12 inch alblum somewhere in my collection I love this song brings bacvk alot of good memories back in the day

  • Super Duper Track. Great Post!

  • No matter the era, its a JAM to me even till this day. This is why I LOVE HOUSE Today.

  • What a great tune! Listened to this on WBMX 102.7 Oak Park/Chicago! Partied on Halsted all night long.................AMAZING

  • crazy times wibh they were back

  • Anyone going to the clubs back when this song was out definitely had some great memories. And yes, from 3:12 - 5:15 on the track where it goes instrumental was what really pumped up everyone the dance floor

  • @basseyboyfla OMG, the part from 3:12-5:15 is exactly why I LOVE this type of music!! I remember hearing that part in the clubs and everybody loved it! It really got people going...especially if one was x-ing

  • I started going out with this song...LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

  • realmente una muy buena cancion y que recuerdos me trae realmente desde aqui ARGENTINA

  • Salesian high baby! Class of 84!!!!!!!

  • Franklin Panthers Baby, Class of '85!!! But you gotta admit, those 2 years were the best :-)

  • dance dance dance! huge dance hit!!!

  • i grew up with a die hard hip hop family.... I was the black sheep back then listening to this wat my dad called crazy disco music.... but when I got this single my whole family joined in on this.... we use to pump this at BBQ's love it!!!!

  • The song never gets old !

  • her son is Marc nelson (az-yet)

  • This song pretty much tops out on the Chart of Fierce.

  • This was the absolute jam back in the day. This song made you feel so good and happy. I am in awe right now. Thanks for the post. Yes I Like You. Where is Phyllis Nelson Now. We need to play this song everyday. Takes me back to the clubs.

  • Ain't that the truth! What a great time...

  • She died in 1988.. bless her. but what a legacy!! this.. move close and my other favourite - 'don't stop the train'

  • 1998. Breast cancer at 47. Didn't know until I checked the Wiki bio today. Last I remember, the song spent 8 weeks at number 1 on the Billboard Club Dance charts and was the number 1 club song of 1986. I bought the record back then.

  • 1950-1998. Breast cancer at 47.

  • To really appreciate this , you had to live it....

    I am so glad I did...Five stars * * * * *

  • Excelente Canción !!!

    Muy buenos recuerdos del año 85

  • Very sad that Phyllis didn't have more success. She died of breast cancer in 1996

  • This is the #1 song that reminds me of senior year in college. Give anything to go back. Grape soda n' grain alcohol and "I Like You"

  • Phyllis is the greatest in this song!! Sure do miss those 80's! You go girl!

  • this was awesome when it was out... still is a great track... one of my fav 80's club tracks

  • My favourite bit is 3:12-4:12 It is 1 minute of heaven for me. Used to think I was dancing the Biz at this but on reflection I bet I looked like an Idiot! :)

  • I wish I had my 12" inch single..... Love this jammin' song!

  • I like this more than I used to. At the time I was pissed because it was a radical change from Phyllis's "Don't Stop The Train" disco day, but time seems to have been kinder to this record.

  • this song always reminds me of my sister.

    it was popular when i started to go to clubs.

    she also had the 12" single.

  • A super dance-trax that I and many of my friends in London danced allnight long at Heaven night club I miss those great nights with these tunes, thanks a millon for the download.

  • absolutely fabulous song! spent many hours dancing to this in nyc clubs. met my partner while dancing to this song

  • i have the album and i am so glad you put it up. i wish i could download it to a cd but cant' find it on mp rocket. thanks for the memories. so sad she passed, she was great.

  • I promoted/ marketed this track back in the day and would like to thank all involved for making it such a hit. Besides Ms. Nelson, Shep Pettibone deserves major props for the creative portion... It was a different turn for popular dance tracks and made a hallmark appearance of the Emulator.

  • wow i remeber this song!!! Thanks for putting it on here!

  • Nice track!

  • Ty I have good memories of dancing to this!
