You have to like this jam. One of the all time greatest dance tunes. The song is a spin off of the Gap Band (Robert Wilson's) bass line. But is Carl Carlton's crowning moment. He returns after many years to show that he can sing and party with the best of them. A really rare performance. Party on.......
I scream everytime I hear this on the radio. I start dancing like crazy. So many good memories of when I was a teenager when I hear this. The best funk song evaaaaa.
I love this music. Check out Junior "Mama used to say" reminds me of a bass riff used in this song. Wow, no auto-tune, real instruments, real vocals. Simple lyrics, just funky and real. My wife is the definition of this track.
@caming234 Yeah, finding good music today is like finding a diamond in the rut. The funny thing is before our generation everyone who was in music were the diamonds in the rut. Now we just get.....the rut.
HA...my kids love this song as much as I do but they didn't hear it first on a movie but from me & then NOT on the "Undercover Brother" soundtrack but "The New Guy" lol
wow im a kid and this was all my mom listened tooo and i love it especially earth wind and fire, Luther Vandross,Gap band, Parliament Funkadelic OMG i LOVE them :D
someone needs to renew my mind on funk, i only no this song and play that funky music by wild cherry, someone please tell me songs bands anything...i need teh FUNK!
@Axxstrix Average White Band, Barkays, Brass Construction, Chololate Milk, D-Train, Earth Wind and Fire, George Clinton, James Brown, Mass Production, KC and the Sunshine Band, Rick James, Ultra, Uptown Funk Empire. Those are the main artists but u can find tons more if u look for them.
I'm sixteen and saying people now a days don't know what music is about! I seriously wish I could have grown up with my mom in the seventies. They had real music.
So damn embarrased my mother just walked in on me dancing to this song :S ! I dance like a bafoon :S ! thanky ou for uploading this calssic tune ! love it :D !
classics like these never get bad comments or even have a chance at getting one like the new school music these days. bring back real clean rap and true R&B. i miss when both were about uplifting self instead of putting down others
In the chorus of the song, there are background singers who if you don't listen carefully, you can easily mishear them as singing "She's Chevy Chased them?" But what does Chevy Chase have to do with this song?
I L0VE to hear this song when im in my car on the way to work :))))
