[cinco6535]

ITS A FRIDAY YA'LL WOOOOO!!!!!

[PrinceMontrey]

Phylis Hyman could sing to any record and make it mesmerizing. R.I.P. to a true soulfelt vocalist!

[rwv777]

Is the actual video for this available? Awesome woman!

[DEZINE5]

THIS PHILADELPHIA, PA BORN DIVA WAS A TRUE VOCALIST SUPREME BAR NONE...GREATNESS!!!!!

[Mia6146]

I suffer from the same condition she had (Depression...really bad)...she couldn't handle it, and killed herself!! Love you Phyllis....R.I.P.

[beanery64]

@Mia6146 I read her book, and I felt all of her pain. I suffer as well but over the years I have found ways to help myself. It's a shame so many suffer alone. I love Ms. Hyman she was truly a DIVA. Mia6146 I pray for you to have better days.

[fanofprotopic]

poor Phyllis....I hope she's finally found peace.

[Cosmodeb1964]

GREAT Singer!!!

R.I.P. Phyllis..... god bless you!

[alexk2501]

Ms Phyllis Hyman, you will live on because of the dance floor classic!!! Love this extended version!

[DJSupertel94]

Best female Jazz Funk & Soul Artist of all time, my favourite track of all time, her voice had everything you could ask for in a female singer. So sad she's not around to make more musical gems for the real music lovers of the world. And as Phyllis said " I wasn't born Yesterday". Check out original ending to the 12inch version of this track!!!!!

[essspressso]

So beautiful ...Phyllis Hyman ...  I miss you pretty lady ... Your vocals are Immense! ... God, I misssss her... Thank you for posting such beautiful music!

[discomusic1966]

A classic Disco song, and truly classic lady,this song is one of the best Disco song EVER,sadly overlooked by other artists of the time Phyllis had her own style and powerful voice,long live her music and long live Disco

[RoofLight00]

@discomusic1966 That's about as succinct as you can get really. A truly beautiful song and vocal performance.

i don't know why others are bringing Beyonce, Whitney et al into the equation? there's no comparison. This is from a different time and place altogether. Recordings like this aren't made anymore. Which is why this is so spiritual and special. RIP Phyllis we will always love you.....

[blewboy2009]

The ultimate Phyllis Hyman song. Forever loved and definitely always and forever missed.

[mikescorpio1108]

Every good man should have a woman tell him this: ♫You know how to love me...♫

[datsexxione]

. Phyllis was pushed to the back burner by Clive Davis when he signed new and upcoming artist like Whitney Houston and seasoned artists like Aretha Franklin and Dionne Warwrick. Phyllis vocial style and music is timeless and priceless. She is one of the worlds true singing and stage diva.

[datsexxione]

This song always takes me back to the roller shating days when I was a teenager trying to keep up with my older brothers and sisters at the skating rink doing Soul disco sundays in my home town of Kinston NC. Cook outs and family functions. Phylllis was on the Arista label when she recorded this song written and produced by Jame Mtume of the group Mtume that wrote the song Juice fruit. We all remember Juice fruit right.

[mitchell18962]

LOVE IT....... Never get tired of hearing this tune. God bless P H

[Milton754]

This song was beautifully written. Just brilliant!

[NikNik80]

this song is crazy woooo

[knobber]

Luv the long version - thx 4 postin...nice clear vocals as well - cheers blud...

[CASASVALDEZ]

THIS IS WHAT U CALL SINGER............. LOVE THIS SONG

[TheThomas1981]

rump shakin' stomper yaooow!

[bjroberts65]

......1979.......

[HighMomentum1]

You should put a LOVE button up there instead of LIKE. There was simply no better disco song of the late 70's, early 80's. I would dance to this every single time I heard it. "There's no denyin"!

[HighMomentum1]

Disco doesn't get any better than this. The beat, the percussion, the awesome power and passion of Phylis Hymans voice. One of my favorite songs of the late 70's dance scene.

[MotownMaster]

this is my jam, this song has a permanent space on my i-pod, love you Phyllis RIP

[312debz]

Class tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[davidwalach]

I can't believe that this gem was never in my r&b/disco collection! where the hell was i? what was i listening to? back in the day b4 aids & all...she was an absolute diva par exelence, yet terribly underrated..."there's no denyin'................" RIP, Phyllis...

[MrJersey2001]

There was a time in our life when you heard something that "made you move" not just your body but your soul this is that song i stay young by living thruogh this misic so please don't forget that we had a good time wet clothes and ringing ears "it looks like day light gonna catch me up again" it was our time our joy our music keep it alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[5548612]

We miss you so much, Ms. Phyllis Hyman ~ You brought so much you brought such wonderful times, dancing the night away, to your beautiful vocals and rhythms. We love you <3 Pretty Lady xx

[sukkyg]

Wot a quality song!! Nothing else needs to b said about it!! Old skool quality!!

[doom2050]

@MrCryptica82 It's a shame that by the time that disco like this song with a strong R&B vibe took shape, the ant-disco backlash was well underway.

[MrMichaels66]

@MrCryptica82 OH.... I couldn't agree with you more. The music today just sucks. If it wasn't for my CD player, there would be nothing blasting in my car. I want the 70's back too. The best times of my life.

[MrMichaels66]

@MrCryptica82 OH.... I couldn't agtee with you more. The music today just sucks. If it wasn't for my CD player, there would be nothing blasting in my car. I want the 70's back too. The best times of my life.

[Roqui151]

Great Song - Beautiful Fun Digital Arrangement....Thanx.

[skeet2b2]

You got that right. Phyllis was the best! I really miss her.

[hofb99]

Brings back so many feelings and memories from that time. I was only a kid, but I can still remember how this song would brighten up my day...the feeling TRULY can't be put into words! Can anyone out there relate??? Everything from her beautiful voice to the piano tap and horns. Music was SOOO REAL back then... Thanks for the post!!! But if anyone can track down the performance they showed of her singing this on TVONE's UNSUNG, THAT WOULD BE A TREAT!!! She was so beautiful!!!

[blacktygar]

@hofb99 echo your thoughts exactly....i still play this song like it just came out.....

[TheXxxHUSTLERxx]

@hofb99 I definitely relate to what your saying.. I discovered the magic of Phyllis Hyman while I was just a young guy, trying to cut his teeth as a D.J in Scotland, inspired by a local radio Jock who would play music of this genre thru the night .. I also worked at our local Record Store(as they were known back then) always looking for quality new tracks to play that no one else was playing... and this was a gem when I found it way back then. best disco track of all time..Absolutely timeless!!

[AnthonyCobb27]

i like this song it make me feel good and im just 25 years old i like old school songs

[TheCaulfield1]

DOES ANYONE WANNA BOOGIE WITH ME???

I reckon Mariah would do a good job with this song, what dya think?

[mitchell18962]

This song gets my funk bone going every time I play it........... God bless Phyllis Hyman

[5171967cafk]

AAAAAAAHHHHHH ........smooth as silk!!!!!! One of my ATF since it came out in '79...even though I was only 12 ! ;D

[qnesg]

@5171967cafk couldnt agree more.heard it on radio this morning.just ordered a copy from vinyl tap.

[5171967cafk]

@qnesg .....Cool .....Enjoy! :D

[itsreal1971]

The smoothest disco song I have ever heard...

[djalexia]

... and here it is... MY SONG!!!!!!! Oooo-Weeeeee - The Arrangements are to kill... (Thanks to: Mtume and Reggie Lucas) Masters Of Productions...

Phyllies Delivered in such a special way... and Tawata Age layered a fantastic background vocals and harmonies... Do Ya Home-Work!! LOL!

[homelesperan]

GOD!, I LOVE SONG, THIS IS A VERY SENSUAL SONG BY A SENSUAL ARTIST. PHYLLIS HYMAN, I LOVE YOU AND THIS SONG, MAY YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL SOUL REST IN PEACE IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, BABY!

[ezabdullah]

For sure, one of my favorites by Phyllis Hyman, with her captivating voice. One of the world's finest vocalists.

[skiiddy]

Orgasmic!! 

[trtwnsnd]

I just love this song....

[teerexable]

not just disco - she achieved a level of consciousness with her music and that incredible voice is a result of being in touch with it. God bless you always Phyllis

[trdxsd2010]

What a voice, what talent, hauntingly beautiful. A life gone too soon.

[5548612]

The memories very few know. Thank you for this wonderful posting

[socute2live4]

Love this women. The best of her time. What the hell has happen to music.

[amfmps2]

@socute2live4 i have done 14 years in prison listening to her. I am free and I am living good.

[killrush66]

[dsmith123able]

There will never be another Phyllis Hyman!!!!! R.I.P. MY LOVE, I WISH I'VE MET YOU WHEN YOUR LIFE WAS GOING BAD LIKE THAT!!! THAT VOICE IS LEGENDARY!!!! The words of this song just touches my soul when I hear it .

[RamonaFromPomona]

A classic and a classy lady she was. *****

[5548612]

Just amazing! Phyllis Hyman.. Luv her music. 4ever - Please sing in heaven, with your angel voice... I Luv U

[DJSupertel]

I actually rate it as my fave song of all time. It has everything the perfect song should have. When she did this live at the Hammersmith odeon London in the 80s ( can't remember the exact date) everyone danced and jumped up and down and I was worried the balcony would collapse. Sadly never to be repeated now! Phyllis Hyman truly was the Goddess of love!!!!

[reggaerebel1]

WOT A CLASSIC

[5548612]

What a beautiful Lady!... Your music lives in my heart 4ever! <3

[whatimlooking4]

Just b'cuz I'm feeling that old school kind of way.

[jh8856]

The real deal

[Romancewright]

DIS TUNE BRINGS WARM THOUGHTS TO MIND OF BETTER DAYS WHEN LOVE WAS MORE SINCERE AND MUSIC REALLY TOUCHED THE SOUL OF THE LISTENER. WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS HAPPENING TO OUR WORLD PEOPLE??

11:11

[hotchefuk]

@Romancewright sooo true! we are born with love but we are taught to hate. Lets ditch the hate and reclaim our world.Ever seen a politician on a front line? If they want to warmonger then let them do it between themselves and leave us people to live our lives and massage our souls with classic tuns like this.

peace in OUR world

[fuckthe360]

@hotchefuk who ever wrote this has came out of the s pell of ingnorance.  which is the spell of sleep

[mrhowardb]

I really, really like what you have done with this accompanying video, couldn't be more appropriate..

[katestrou]

all time classic!!!!!!!!!!!! i love it . Thanks my dear friend for sharing, love Kate

[carino15236]

great classic ************

[davidwalach]

This is such a great song, & Phyllis was awesomely talented! I can't believe to this very day that I never had this record in my vinyl collection. It evokes so many happy memories..."back in the day"...what a shame she is no longer with us, and too bad that this kind of music has been replaced with today's trash. She knew how to love a song...too bad she never made it on the pop charts. But at least she was quite the success on the r&b charts...rest in peace, sweet angel of music!

[ljd10019]

the best

[DREADONE187]

Diva to death....I was there and she is a part of me...always

[eric601d]

Oh what I would give to have this and others of it's kind over the airwaves again. Maybe hearing these grooves could put us in and better equipt us to deal with what's going on in the world today. Back in the day we all had issues but putting a song like this on the player somehow made it all bearable. For a little while we could all escape and it was all good.

[CrypticArtix]

I cant wait to jam to this song in my 1977 F100 once it is all fixed up and on the road. :)

[Rasclot222]

Beyonce who? Alicia Keys who? Keisha Cole what? None of them can tough Mrs. Hyman

[yvetteblalock]

@Rasclot222 you go that right!!! :D 

[mkeym]

@Rasclot222 ABSOLUTELY!!!!

[bjroberts65]

@Rasclot222 I heard that.....

[Rasclot222]

@bjroberts65 Everytime someone replys to my comment, you guys make me want to listen to this song again. :-) She's one of the best. cheers.

[Terence7414]

@Rasclot222 u damn skippy!!!

[Rasclot222]

@Terence7414 :-) Yes she is one of the best indeed. cheers

[hollywood101usa]

@Rasclot222 lol...you are so totally right..they could never sing like this.....

[Rasclot222]

@hollywood101usa Thanks, I think we heard enough of these studio singing artist of today. What happened to the real singers? They all can't be in church singing. LOL.

[ThePandems]

@Rasclot222 Don't doubt Alicia, she's got talent and will be around. She's like the female version of Prince but lighter. Beyonce only has the look and an annoying voice and Keisha Who?

[Rasclot222]

@ThePandems Alicia Keys can't sing worth squat if you heard her live before. Also she stopped writing her own songs her only good album is the first one. Alicia is prettier than Beyonce. And yes Keisha who??? LOL.

[qbanmuscle]

@Rasclot222 YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!

[Rasclot222]

@qbanmuscle :-) Happy New Year. Every time someone replies to my comment, when I reply back it gives me a chance to hear this great song again. Peace.

[narutomustgonow]

@Rasclot222 I like Alicia, Give or Take Keisha, but Beyonce AND JayZ and Aguilera and Spears and That freakboy Juatin Bieber and their cabal could learn a lot from REAL talents like the Great Ms Hyman.

[xFuSiiOnzZ]
