VOYAGE TO ATLANTIS - Isley Brothers

[ckassieamor]

- so glad my father and mother introduced me to good music! i love this song

[delirous8]

People at that time were so spoiled with good music that it was hard for other good songs to reach to Billboards.

Nowadays it is miracle to have songs with beautiful instumentation and lyrics nowadays. Musicians are so depedent on fake beats and autotune.

Adele brought some spark back to a soulless industry hopefully it will help some of the youth really recongize what good music is.

It is more than just beats music has to speak to your soul.

[gla292]

@delirous8 adele did bring back soul and integrity to popular music. but we need more artist like her sought of like a movement

[prettyasIplease]

mamaja4 loves this song I was five years old when this song was made I love the isleys so many memories uh! lovin herbG always u heard.

[SEHANO]

Sure wish Ernie Isley's guitar solo at the beginning was a lot longer. That dude can really wail!

[minimalist640]

This song just tears me apart emotionally. Although not a chart topping success, it is considered by their fans to be a masterpiece.

[MrTshugart]

The effect that this song shares in common with "black hole sun" is a guitar hooked up to a Leslie speaker. And a great moment for Leslie speakers indeed!

[bestofmybest]

Timeless Stuff What a great Era this was !!

[tomeka1971]

Love this song!

[travelfoxxxx]

more specifically - listen to 4:10min into the track and take note of the parallels between this tune and 'Black Hole Sun' by SoundGarden.

[travelfoxxxx]

SoundGarden stole this groove from the Isley Brothers in their track (Black Hole Sun)...admit it!!

[keemy281]

THIS IS THE SONG! Listen to Ronnie! Attllaanntissss!

[D7J7W7]

Man, I was born in the 20th Century and this music is great!!!

(That's for the ones weirdly complaining about people saying how old they are, who cares if they say that? They like it and if you don't - just listen, don't read!)

[D7J7W7]

How could this great song only have gotten to #50??? Something was seriously wrong with the 1977 R & B chart!

[702myoung]

Let's make love music....oh yeah

[IIRodxSteeloII]

@RBCHILD4EV i agree! I'm 17 and even i know that today's music is garbage! sometimes i wish i was born earlier cause they grew up with REAL MUSIC and not this "ringtone song" bullshit.

[TheAngelicavelasquez]

[ejoutback]

MUsic means LIfe.......I feel the words.

[peady64]

I'm so glad to see many of the younger generation enjoying the music of our time. Thanks for keeping Soul and R&B alive today. I encourage you to look past the "mainstream" music. There are many independent artists out there that you will enjoy just as much. It's great to know that our future still craves the "soulfulness" we oldheads were spoiled to have. Thanks.

[pepdogg513]

Dis is the shizz-nit, 100% USDA grade A, ol skool r&b at it's best. And it just don't get "NO GOODERER".

[PitbullLover204]

@pepdogg513 so true man dis is da shit u know

[PitbullLover204]

@PitbullLover204 yezzir so dope

[BigPimpin850]

[Byrd21320]

CLASSIC

[PitbullLover204]

yo was born after dis song come i didnt even listin 2 dis till awhile ago but str8 good muzik dares nothing like dis good muzik nowadayz

[cochinoman1]

@PitbullLover204 that's what I'm sayin.....nothing like jams like this. I don't listen to nothing new except jazz. oldies and old school/funk Reigns Supreme

[newlife417]

EXCUSE ME! Did wonderwomanfan4 say this sound is not really needed anymore?Yes, we are in a different time and place, but beautiful music isTIMELESS! I think some of these young artist need to stop sampling and make more beautiful music like this!

[melvinweed]

I need a girlfriend, damn!

[Breonify2012]

@melvinweed lls..

[PhunkyPhil72]

Rons voice is amazing on this...and so much soul in Ernies playing. they are the most underated band i know...

[92HoneyChild]

I love this song!!

[Putaspellonyou]

i love how the ad for cooking schools comes up at the bottom...yeah, these guys'll teach you ta cook, motherfucker!

[WonderWomanFan4life]

i love this song...

[williepright]

Truly one of the classic R&B albums of all time. I bought it back in 1977 and the Brothers thought I was patroninizing, but even a white boy knew good jams.

[devonj1]

no nilla its not hard to explain at all it really takes me there everytime i hear it so sensual and very sexy love it so much

[MarkEC64]

Talking about getting your love on. this was the Joint. Slow Dancin' in the corner with a beautiful shorty.

[BrkCityFG9]

A good tune after burning a good one!

[blackkatt100]

This song was the sh*t back in the day. It will never get old.

[niknak1974]

Damn good music!

[MrChuckbiscuit]

REMEMBER THIS AONG?? CINCY"S BEST!

[MrChuckbiscuit]

REMEMBER THIS AONG??

[PlusTeenUSA]

Dig it if you can

[PhunkyPhil72]

This is the best band that came from cincinnati. To think The Beatles were hip to them enough to cover Twist and Shout says much for the isleys and the beatles. also jimi hendrix was in the group for a short while. He tought ernie isley so much in such a short time...you can hear the influence in ernies sound. i have to say not too many white guys are hip to them, but my mom was...she just bought htis album to add to our isleys collection. if you have heard all of go for your guns...you should.

[recovering16]

@PhunkyPhil72 That explains why I thought the guitarist reminded me of Jimi Hendrix... but even more soulful. So it was one of the Isley Brothers who played guitar inthis? Fantastic. My favorite Isley Bros. tune (even more than Twist and Shout)!

[raquelwashington409]

If i ever have any kids... the first one will be named "Atlantis" boy o' girl, ima tell them they got thier name from this song.

[stiretec]

these brothers had such a unique sound that can never be duplicated....they were the real thing and they were us!

[WonderWomanFan4life]

@stiretec

we are in a different time, place, this sound is not really needed anymore. however, i do appreciate it and I LOVE it.. But seems these people like JUSTIN BEIBER.. LOL i guess somehow they lost their appreciate for REAL MUSIC...

[MrJP75]

@WonderWomanFan4life I agree that we are in a different time, but as to this sound not being needed??? I strongly disagree!!! This sound is needed now more than ever!!!

[WonderWomanFan4life]

@MrJP75

I need it too. it just wished there were more people who would state their feelings about this music and artist who play this sort of style. It seems to me most of the 18 to 35 age group want to do RAP or METAL RAP or Taylor Swift style, Katy Perry, I mean where are groups like OJAYS, This one?? Gone when was last time you saw a group in this genre touring or a new group with this sound. WOW we have been forgotten. Thats why i said it wasnt needed by the record labels.

[JerkTAst1kCoop]

im 17 and love this sonq

[BBJandluvinit33]

that's a ole school track will never BEFOREGOTTEN.

[Boogiered1]

In 2002/03 I saw them at the St. Louis Arch singing this song during the 4th of July celebration and the place was packed. Traffic on the major freeway was bumper to bumper. This is one Family Reunion I will not forget. Thanks for the post.

[DJA216]

Are you old enough to remember this? Classic

[ArBiTeR0000Tactical]

i remember my dad got me into them when i was growing up in the late 90's and i remember even as a 9 year old kid I used to love them!! and I was actually lucky enough to see them in concert when i was 11 at the L.A. county fair!!

[supermanco]

their beats are so smooth. love them!

[wscottie1959]

love this always...

[skorcha]

back when artists had THEIR OWN (!!!) sound you dig? NOOOOBODY sounded like these cats

[jcompoze]

RIP Marvin

[sgrho]

I loveeeeeeeeeee this! :)

[MusicalChorus]

Truly a song for deep thinking and passionate love making. Thanks for posting!

[desider714]

@MusicalChorus truly it twas/or mahaps still alive i do wonder at times

[redboi80]

Love Love this song....Just close your eyes and listen..

[skarrhart]

Ernie ISLEY on the guitar. mang. PRICELESS!

[CedrickKillsZombies]

Just heard this tonight, I'm 17 and I'm thankful that there's R&B from the past that's original and not some mundane studio track you hear all the time now.

[90279619]

so fucking smooth...gets you lost in your mind and you never want to be found

[willdakid09]

aye im only 19 and i know this is good as music

[techgal83]

Voyage to Atlantis is definitely in my top 10 of slow jams & Ernie on that guitar - lawd 'ave mercy!!!! I love The Isleys!!!!

[flix4vix]

Timeless. Priceless. Thank you!

[DLJgay]

Is it me or does this song never get old? I don't normally like guitar riffs but it really works on this ballad. Why isn't this on that Guitar Hero crap?

[CedrickKillsZombies]

@DLJgay Because Guitar Hero uses different standards. This song sounds amazing, but I play the game and know it wouldn't be fun to play on there. Just sayin'.

[souldisciple]

best song ever made!

[phlybamababe]

The lyrics, CLEARLY HEARTFELT! The guitar riffff, SICK! THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE ISLEY BROTHER SONG, HANDS DOWN!

[druweezy888]

this is my mix!

[vicdemonejrjr]

I just wanna smoke a big ass blunt and listen to this song all day....i wud be in paradise....

[ayokae]

man this is one of my session tracks for real

[MsharpM]

Now that's a love song....this trash today needs a lesson!!

[jumpsteady21]

Amazing song! my favorite from them. Always loved the Isley brothers."Riff "does an amazing cover of this song on their "to whom it may concern" album, check it out and judge for yourselves.

[mijaoldies]

CLASSIC BABY ...

[coreyleeds]

What a tune! Wrap me up in love man!

[jsothera]

WHAT A SONG

[jkillah999]

The Isleys.......no one's done it as good as them since. Timeless classic.

[prini79]

TIMELESS

[lovejangie1]

Classic jam!

[nillawafah47]

I love this song. If you allow it to, it takes you to faraway place that hard to explain. When I listen to this song, I visualize my trip to Atlantis. Truly wonderful! I love the Brothers Isley.

[xhellodreamerx]

@nillawafah47 Wow,I feel the exact same way! I just close my eyes,and I feel this great sense of..relaxation.

[29jinz]

real nice right now

[ayokae]

Favorite ol skool track hands down

[4gnrations07]

@ayokae I  could listen to this ALL DAY ;)

[sworlee123]

@4gnrations07 me too, over and over right!!! this and just to be close to you, commodores

[4gnrations07]

@sworlee123 this music never gets old!!

[brittanycardo89]

love the isley bros. my fav. group

[kisharenee122188]

The beat for this song is so relaxing. I love the beginning of this song. Its puts you in such a mellow mood you are on another plane while they are singing, I so love this song.

[lovelizabeth57]

You can not make these memories go away because with this music that I grew up too makes me know love, remember love, and true happiness. This new music is a tragedy.

[RJhonda14]

this song is so doggone beautiful. it is so perfect that i conditioned myself over the the past 30 plus years to only listen to it once so often simply because i want to appreciate more when i hear it.

[colejx78]

This just goes to show you that rock and Soul are interconnected: each borrows and inhances from each other. I think that in the 70's The music at the time served to unite people through the power of music.

[mysanitysgone]

I thank the Most High God for having ears when listening to soul express itself like this fine example. if this doesn't give you goose bumps then you aren't hearing it. Can u dig it?

[71666kdb]

That intro is monster! Thank God for the Isley Bros. and YouTube!
