The Time Ice Cream Castle

[mlugo808]

@zizwop - that is hilarious shit: at the end of the day it comes down to getting ass. Ha ha....

[zizwop]

I always thought this song was lame, but at the same time, I couldn't help but think, they must get a lot of ass.

[Clonetrooper1139]

Aren't they back together as The Original Seven?

[Annieruaight]

OMG! We would run to the tv to see this video when I was in elementary school!

[DangerousLee]

The melody of this song moves me!

[TheVoodoobassplayer]

1:39 "Jerome chill baby!" "Uh...you! Hold my coat!"

[loqutor]

This is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. It makes a wonderful, true statement about interracial love without being overly political or preachy.

[antfree22]

Morris is too cool. Classic song.

[resicup63]

JESSE JOHNSON IS FINE..........................­!

[BellesandGentsTV]

LOOK AT WHITE BOOTZ! LOOK AT THE BOOTZ!

[Clonetrooper1139]

And Prince made them break up. A pity. i think he was somewhat jealous of their success, even though they were his proteges.

[TheSkete]

@Clonetrooper1139...Prince didn't "make" them break up it was just the circumstances.Prince & Morris had creative differences.Two strong personalities will clash so Morris walked,Jesse walked and the group just fell apart.

[Clonetrooper1139]

@TheSkete Well, glad the Original 7ven are making music again.

[mesaladee]

Morris is lookin good!

[jacquelinebraxton]

Betwenn The Time & Prince they always had music that put you in mood for dancing or making love...No more songs like that these days...

[hamburger229]

Break out the halston z-14 and the Grey flannel....

[soulburst]

the boys are back going to a Qand A with them today.

[julianivey]

Prince should have just recorded this one for himself instead of making it for the Time. This song has Prince's style more than the Time's.

[WerControversy]

LOVE OUR FAMILY...iTS TIME FOR A NEW REVOLUTION FOLOW US @WERECONTROVERSY ON TWITTER.

[frankandbeansandally]

LOVE HIM!!! He looks exactly like my best friend. Those lips are so cute and desirable!!!

[mrgotabody]

I love this song .. And the best band around is back with a new CD

[MrBlaklip]

Jerome had a job, LOL!!

[greytimearmy]

Video doesn't scare me I love all the women in it fuckin tight.......

[Tat2Dragons]

Great song, I've always loved that bouncy bass line. Good Stuff!

[greytimearmy]

This video scares me.

[treyspr]

OMG! This is black people being creative like we used to before hip hop ruled the world.

[jazzynet1]

Talk about freebase city baby :D

[jazzynet1]

man i had this cassette :D, man i was a bad man :D

[7000ironman]

this brings back memories when our band used to play this

[mwavreyav99]

Jesee Johnson is THE not the, THE shit!

[witchman67]

[staxoway]

Pimp Shit!

[dulaone]

This video is soooo cheesey, AND STILL IS SHITTING ON ANYTHING THAT IS OUT NOW!!

[dougconley]

Love the song and The Time but Ice Cream Castles? I don't quite get it. I'm sure it means something sexual and knowing Morris Day it has to. LOL

[twiztidlestat]

He was JUST in buffalo today, I saw him playing with The Time, It was amazing

[gorerilla]

eat your pancakes , Bitches....

[tapeofffig]

Cool is timeless, except for Jesse Johnson's hot pink suit. Helluva a guitar player, and had a brief solo career.

[JTStar1982]

@tapeofffig the pink suit was bad as hell, only few guys could get away with that and Jesse was one of the few =0)

[tapeofffig]

@JTStar1982 Lol, i guess Jesse was ahead of his time..it was just a few years ago when everybody was rockin' pink..pink for a minute there was the new black..

[JTStar1982]

@tapeofffig thing that sucked about it , people just threw on a pink t and thought they were making a statement. it was nothing special about it. Jesse rocked it with class

[edencrash10]

@JTStar1982

I agree he looks too sharp in the hot pink. It makes me wish that I was a little bit older in the early 80's so that I could rock the lingerie in the middle of day time lol .

[eddiescissors1]

black is beautiful ,Pimpin is gorgeous..

[eddiescissors1]

REAL PIMPIN NO GGGGGGORILLLLA

[eddiescissors1]

THE DARKER SKINNED MAN IS ANGRY BECAUSE LIGHT SKINNED WAS IN STYLE,HA HA

[eddiescissors1]

[kinstube]

THANK U

[kinstube]

LOVE THIS !!!!!!

[whatuswattingat]

God, I haven't heard this in a long LONG TIME!!!!

[macknati]

Man even the white boy was in step with everyone on this video at 1:32

[nowatout]

MISS THEM DAYS !

[ObjectiveApproach]

This sounds like something prince would write

[MzYumYum69]

what can't his sisters realize? what won't be long? is this song about white chicks? the harmony is killer tho. I dig it. Just not so sure I want an ice cream castle whatever that is.

[CharlyGanja]

psycodope

[Christinada5]

One thing I loved about the Time was that they were always on point. Morris could do the two step all day long and never loose that coat. Even in this video the two white keyboard players are stepping on beat in time. You know back then anyone produced by Prince had to come with it, and better be on point, or get lost

[IngridBergmanRocked]

@Christinada5

So True!! And isn't it refreshing to see real musicians playing real instruments.

[DutchKalhoun]

"You are white. I am of color" Morris loved him some white women. LMAO!

[DutchKalhoun]

Classic vid. Haven't seen it in years. I heard through the grapevine Prince produced and composed most of their material.

[southernathletics]

Them Boyz was the shizic!

[kay77764]

O...M....G! I remember this corney song i use to sing it when i was little ICE CREAM CASTLES IN THE SUMMER TIME LOL this is soooo 80ish

[cnorman33]

No ice cream for six people...

[DreMurf313]

"The Suits, The Swagger, The Arrogance (ACTUALLY CONFIDENCE!), Their Character!!! MAN, Morris Day & THE TIME were the most charismatic R&B group of all time!!!

[freshfaded1]

Dattz Datt MPLS sound Minneapolis for life

[dyanaprinze6]

I'm going to see Prince monday and I CAN'T WAIT!!! He's full of music and mystery. His side projects always amAzed me. The Family,The Time Vanity..UNBELIEVABLE! SALUTE THE PURPLE WONDER ;-)

[darknostrils]

Man. That is just so AWESOME! Haven't heard this in forever.

[whitetailhunta]

Player music.

[specialk68]

Morris knew that he was a supa-fine mutha back in the day!!!!

[paintedbridge]

I think that is the same pink suit Jesee rocked in "Be Your Man" ha.

All the Jeri Curls while Morris was "Fried, dyed and laid to the side!!"

[apatheticempathy]

never hear this song anymore, ... damn shame !

This is SO 8O's and so cool ... Morris is da man ...

Shame music today sucks, we didnt relize how good we had it ...

poor kids of today will never know music quality ~ ~ ~

[rossandmusic]

This video is very interesting. You can see lots of elements of Prince's "Under the Cherry Moon" movie. .. like the close ups of the animal statues, and the whole black/white thing. It's as though Prince used his side projects as a stepping stone.

But not just that... it seems as though Prince was already thinking about future projects while working on current ones. The man was/is/and always will be a workaholic!

[rossandmusic]

I miss these days so much!!!!!

[loqutor]

Written by God herself and handed down to the greatest band in the history of the world...The Motherfucking Time!

[RideAnomiX720]

The Mother-Fucking Times!!!!

[theendlessenigma]

I tried like hell to dress like this. Unfortunately I have to say I never quite pulled it off ... and that I am also Caucasian. Either way Morris Day was the total true player!

[run8gene]

@theendlessenigma Monte Moir (keyboardist) had some soul......lol

[tabithathewitch2001]

Really nice video....its prettty!

[mypinkbiz]

MEMORIES........

[wacodude86]

High School Days (DAZE) was the shit!!!

[romanosmth]

The 80's was the shit, problem now if dudes dressed like this now, u would think they're gay & these brothas is true playaz.

[bigmelo19]

@romanosmth so true

[Djtonystewart]

The shizzle!

[XrossFire89]

Morris' face throughout the whole video, priceless.

[ArtistTerry]

Yep....Morris Day was a smooth as hell. He all kinds on Honey Dips!

[HALFDEAD66]

damn, they knew what was up.......they had white beeatches before white beatches were in!

[HALFDEAD66]

Morris had swag before there was swag> Shit, he may be the father of swag.

[KARNEVILKLIQUE]

I LOVE PRINCE BUT IN THE MOVIE PURPLE RAN.....MORRIS DAY STOLE THE SHOW...THE TIME KILLED IT. THE "BAD" GUYS WON IN THAT MOVIE I THINK

[fRieNdLy2124]

Icre cream castles in the summer time!

[loqutor]

This is pretty awesome, but I still think Prince kicks The Time's ass.

[HiddenDragon711]

@loqutor Two totally different styles of music. If you watched Purple Rain you would know that. The Time was definitely R&B while Prince transformed to pop with the Purple Rain CD.

[erickliddell]

@loqutor prince wrote this.....and most of the Time's music

[hornetbrown]

Noir Funk...not only song but a scene to give you a sense of the moment...you could not just listen but you had to feel it and see the vision, evoke the memory in your mind. Nostalgic style versus modern music...this dude was almost the black Bowie but not quite as creative...

[hornetbrown]

I hated pretty muthaf**kas like Morris--his shit was together!! Man!

[DucatiChica]

Is he singing about white girls? lol

[ShinAkio]

The Time's tha thoedest.

[u2becommended]

@ShinAkio He is not singing bout white girls. He is singing that if we loved for the sake of love and not color, we would soon be like ice cream castles in the summer time. Imagine an ice cream cone with every flavor and color in the summertime... it will melt and all the colors melt together.... deliciously.

[SupernalOne]

@u2becommended

"you are white, I am of color, let's fall in love" - he's being a little outrageously forward in his proposal - but he wouldn't be Morris Day if he didn't -

[TheDsigner2012]

@u2becommended Well I would hate to see this as a racist song. I have loved this song since I was a baby little coco boy!

[kenslyd]

Brings back memories of Summer 84 :)

[eauctioneer]

@kenslyd WHAT TIME ISIT?????

[fatsamjazz]

jason moran

[TehWinnerz]

sooo....Did Jason Moran bring anyone else here??

[MrReallyHard]

Is that what you need. Oh let's cum together. Or fall in Love. That it won't be long. Peace.

[JEDI7ACEN]

OK I think after all these years, they singing about getting women of all flavors.

[HALFDEAD66]

Damn! Did they have to wear eye liner?

[wendileona]

I LOVE this song and video. Its just soo, sooo Minneapolis Sound. So alive and pulsating and a celebration of fun! They way The (Purple Rain) Time dance oh so cool WHILE playing their instruments and just that hint of attitude... we's the best! And they were!

Too cool. They just don't make em like they used to so applies to this. Long Live real musician Funk! Yeysss!

[OGmrkhan]

sweet stash man!!!

[brewinfool1111]

god damn that two-step is fucking smooooth

[Bingo411]

pinks suit is tha shit!

[Drayton42677]

Morris kept it real with the STACEY ADAMS shoes... $350 a pop and that was over 25yrs. ago

[witchman1]

Mpls music scene, nothing better. BTW this was filmed at Renfest MN. And do you know what Ice Cream castles are? White girls. Oh ya baby.

[wendileona]

@witchman1 Thanks for that little factoid - I love knowing little stuff like that. Was that like a hotel they were at or park, what location exactly at Renfest MN? School me :o)

[witchman1]

Mpls music scene, nothing better. BTW this was filmed at Renfest MN.

[witchman1]

Mpls music scene, nothing better.

[mtheartbreak]

Night and Day...WHAT TIME IS IT!

[NthDegreeEnt]

These cats were ice cold. A shame that they broke-up in their prime. Would've been nice to see then continue on (including Jam, Lewis, and Monte).

[bitlowtothebone]

Those boys was dressing back then!!! And you know man!!!!!

[gritney23]

St.Paul from the Family on keys.

[sherifffruitfly]

Will always be a great song.

[GoddessAnjanee]

[AwwCrap66]

[clarkkent502]

[chiproc]

stacey addams and baggies i remember you couldnt get into a club unless you were dressed sharp not today you can look all bummed out and youre in

[MrBlackFabio]

This song was so underrated when it came out. Only urban stations would play it. I thought this song was better than Jungle Love.

[clstew32559]

The original 7 had more game than parker brothers and enough swag of 100

[teawithoptimus]

So. Much. Swag.

[DONTA9231]

[JEDI7ACEN]

I keep watching VH1 all 80's on sat morning. I looking out for The Time "Cool" video. 

[KidEarthbound]

holy eyeliner

[JEDI7ACEN]

The Time rocked suits, Stacy Adams shoes, the works! People get on stage today looking like it's laundry day. Who da F can rock a pink suit like Jessie?

[anonymousent]

@JEDI7ACEN LOL !!!... True , True , True .... Don't forget Jesse's pink car & pink guitar !!

[JEDI7ACEN]

@anonymousent

I just found out somebody put up The Time "COOL" and "The Walk" videos.

The PaisleyParker got some of the Minneapolis classics. if you can't find it check my subscription list.

[ayabtiyah2004]

@JEDI7ACEN Nobody can,he a one of a kind pink suit wearing playa ! He looked good in it and no one questioned his manhood !

[JEDI7ACEN]

@ayabtiyah2004 And you know that!

And also just found out somebody put up The Time "COOL" and "The Walk" videos.

The PaisleyParker got some of the Minneapolis classics. if you can't find it check my subscription list. 

[cornbreadthedog]

@JEDI7ACEN lol..lol.. i agree with you! i'm laughing and clapping for morris! he looks like a p-i-mp of the year with that cane! super cool! peace!

[stupidscrewedseries]

@cornbreadthedog as morris would say: a gigolo lol

[msJ5ful]

@JEDI7ACEN JESSE JOHNSON WAS TRYING TO PIMP THE TIMES STYLE LOL!!!

[BlaqueReign25]

@JEDI7ACEN That is true they always looked like they were going some where, these artist of today just look like they couldn't find anything to where with the crazy outfits that they put together. Not to mention they wear their pants half down their behinds and big gigantic oversized shirts that look like nightgowns. What kills me is the skinny jeans they look like their balls are being suffocated and they probably are, not to mention they try to sag those too, lol. SHM.

[hapzap13]

Old skool rola !!!! Pure funk.

[draconryu17]

lol jerome! bring me my hat! did i mess up my hair?

[Tubedaddydon]

@tazcalloway Ditto on the luv 4 Jesse's suit. He knew how 2 rock pink 20 years b4 it was acceptable for guys 2 wear it.

[Tubedaddydon]

@jtstar1982  Luved this song since I had the album in 85 and never saw the video til now. Thanks 4 posting - great quality!

[flygirlmom]

Been looking for this! Thanks for the post...

[TazCalloway]

Let's see if I can list this line up.. Morris Day, St Paul, Jesse Johnson, Gerald Hubbard, Mark Cardenas, Jerome Benton, Jellybean Johnson.. I don't know why, but this line up was my favorite.. and I just looooove Jesse's suit !

[SPAZZOID100]

@TazCalloway

Maybe live, but the first 3 albums were entirely written and performed by Prince.

Only Morris is on there...the rest of these dudes never played on the records

[TazCalloway]

@SPAZZOID100: haha yea of course i know that.. i might be 19 but i "fell in love" with morris day the first time i saw purple rain.. that was around 2000 or so.. i was 9 yo.. and from then on i worked myself through the whole minneapolis scene and soul&funk generally.. [check out my other channel: EXTENDED91]

[interzoneincorporate]

swag it, morris!

[RussianNightmare]

Jerome! Bring Me My Mirror.... Yeeeeeeesssssss.

[jeanee1228]

Morris Day invented swag. That is all.

[myfunkyway9]

@jeanee1228 no geoge clinton and morris will tell u "i'm 2 cool 2 swim,i don't even sweat, i'm cool" ok u think about n morris is my man i'm just tellu the truth.
