This long dance version had the floor rocking and popping; nobody stayed in their seat when they played this jam...miss those days when music got inside your soul
Old school, one of a kind, it will shock the mind. This is raw, it's clean cut, and original. No computer generation, no dubbing, and no "copy cat." Good music!!!! Ditto
Saw them with Cameo and the Gap band in Tucson,AZ in 1980. Damn that was a good show.I better stop jumping around the house dancing now, Might get a Heart attack! Where are my pills. LOL
@vickietubbs74 Rite on! Even if I have a terrible day, I can put this song on and feel better. Takes me back to great times! Savanah, GA, Augusta,GA, Fayetteville, NC! Party on!
i remembered the year 1981 when i first heard this track.my teenage years yup..created lots of mischief.but those were the good old days...good to hear this again! the beauty of music it does not see colour of skin or texture of hair.poor or rich..yea!all music sees ......it is the human race.and i am proud to say i am a trini...
i remember growing up in dallas back in the 80's and my mom was friends with his sister. years later after i married in dallas my husband knew her. small world
@baangel24 1979, they signed a recording contract and released their first album, The Two Of Us.[1] It contained "Don't Stop the Music", which topped the US Billboard R&B chart in early 1981, knocking their label-mate, the Gap Band's song
Love this song! I know it says don't stop the music but they did stop the music everybody did! The music we have today needs to be stopped and the music from back in the day needs to continue! Come on yall don't stop the music! Real music that is! What ever happened to it?
A true classic. BTW, I've been trying to track down a cover version of this from the early 80's. I think the group was called Bit O Honey but I'm not sure. I had it on some kind of cassette compilation. Any leads or info would be most appreciated!
This is my old high school music! I was a skinny little sophmore who had a lot of fun and enjoyed just about all the old school music. This one was always one of my favorites. Thanks for uploading it here! This was the long version! It got a lot of air time on the radio for sure and was played at a lot of house parties and school dances, when they still had them!
Blessed comin up on music like this! Song still gives me chills! Yall love that real music come check ya boy out 22 but doin like its suppose to be done! Sub/Add come vibe with me!

man i just wish we had this now old days was the best new days just cant test what we had back then growing up. im 35 and used to jump around to this with my mom. im now gonna download and make a personal remix with some hip hop beats. love it
bad ass to the bone,always in my home, real music.old school got real grooves,new school needs to be refined cause its out of time has no rimes or reasons,cant stop real artists creativity

To all the young one's remember that if it was not Old school, The Artist now would not know where to get some of thier beats from. Some of the new music that you hear now have the Old School Beat.
ole skool classic bentleys niteclub dudley england life was free and easy the racists couldnt beat the music out of you we made it our own forever and a day........
@GTastyReefer One of these days of a near century, people might come out of a past they never new! Stop asking questions of a stupid, no ignorant, nature. The only thing that should matter is how a human thinks PERIOD.
growing up a poor white preachers son, I had only poor black friends,who did'nt judge me for being poor.I learned alot ,but really about music old school R&B too sweet to beat!
@mwjnks ...thats whats up! thats whats this world is all about. UNITY. We are all the same. Race is just a social construct designed to divide us. Music has been so great in bridging the gaps.
@mwjnks I grew up listening to this music as white kid. My favorite bands were Bar-kays, One Way, Lakeside, Cameo, Zapp, Atlantic Starr, P-Funk, etc. To a certain extent The Blacks didn't trust me because my skin was white, and the whites hated my guts because my music choice was 100% Funk! I never backed down from either side. Never will!!!! 1979-1983 funk best R&B ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
@joeskaterAZ Continue to stand your ground!!!!Your choice...That's what God gave each and everyone of us...FREE WILL!!!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family, from me and mine....
@joeskaterAZ .......stay strong my brotha. your taste in music says it all. too bad you had problems with the brothas. musta been hatin on you, because the sistas liked you.
this is the only thing that keeps me happy in a world of haters
