[riverblue2]

Estas roupas e estes toques influenciaram muitos grupos de black power que se apresentavam nos bailes da Chic Show na década de 70 no Palmeiras. Eu estava lá e me lembro muito bem. Era fantastico aos nossos olhos de adolescentes. Magia pura!

[amd77j]

CLASSIC MUSIC. Nuff said.

[JPfromFlint]

Hi, I'm JP and I don't give a heck about no old zodiac but I love this song anyway

[0102vuleak]

Now days they have the technology to clean it up, maybe if you know somebody who's taking audio technology in college or and professional.  Because it hurts our ears with all that distortion, but the video aspect is good.

[0102vuleak]

Can you clean up the audio?

[MoondogMayne]

@0102vuleak This was recorded with a Betamax back in '77. TV audio was poor then to begin with and this is from a very old tape.

[sopitabo]

@MoondogMayne Ey man,you got anything else like this,fuckin excellent,don't seem to be to much live footage of The Floaters.Thanks for takin the time to upload brother,appreciate it man.Fuckin all times classic.

[NytNurse85]

soooo slick! float! float! float onnnnn!!!

[yashti1979]

The floaters knew how to sing. When singing was an art. They are very talented and this is a great song. Reminds me of my high school days.

[soraia1230]

uiiiiiiiiiiii, amoooooooooooo.

[soraia1230]

lindoooooooo, maravilhosoooo.

[nostaljc62]

ca c'est du slow.

toute ma jeunesse les annees 70.

j'ai le 45 tours de l'epoque.

merci.

[lakechaney]

This song is so nice and smooth, it helps you forget the B.S. on the radio today with all those grown men wearing thier pants off thier butt

[yashti1979]

Who wants to see their dirty underwear...lol. these ghetto boys need to grow up and act their age.

[funhistory]

AMEN!!! I heard this recently when a local station was replaying an old AT40 broadcast. It's incredible how terrible the whole past couple of decades have become music-wise.

[royalclaat]

This is da ShizniT!!!!

[wyatt92562]

DAMN...When I hear this song my nipples get hard, I get whet and feel warm in all the right spots. AND I"M A DUDE! HaHa! I Luve This song. These brutha's define SMOOVE! If you can't get laid to this song, it sucks to be you. I've gotten laid to this song MANY times.....it's just I was alone:-(

[sinister1000]

superb i love it

[garnetjewel]

Um, I know it was the 70's but those outfits were WRONG!!!! Someone said one of the guys looked "sweet"?? How could anyone look manly in crotch-tight red satin gaucho-genie pants? It was the times I guess. Don't get me wrong. The sagging "butt-out/show-your-boxers" look guys are sporting today looks a lil "funny" in my opinion too.

[jtmac40]

How did they put on a whole concert? They were classic, but only had one song, they even name themselves after it.

[MoondogMayne]

No Stronger Love was a very good song, but yes they would have been better as an opening act than a headliner.

[srmoe1971]

That is just too cool....Float on!!!!....I can dig it...the Floaters were bad.

[anointedwithvictory]

Wow!!! I did not know the Floater could move like this. These boys moves were baaaad. I love it!!! They were sharp. These dudes are awesome.

[aGwEENapple]

I love this song

[suezzwi]

i've been trying to find this song for ages lol, got it now, could'nt remember what it was called for ages haha x

[5555ge]

charles looks so gay

[HaliB75]

Charles SOUNDS GAY!!! Now we can put two and two together. Listen to the record Charlessssssss always sounded gay! LOL!! Great song though!! It will always have a special place in my heart.

[FAK67]

Just because he sings in falsetto you call him gay?

[HaliB75]

That's Not what I am saying at all. Eddie Kendricks sang falsetto and so does Philip Bailey. I am talking about the way he sounds especially on the record during his speaking part.

[FAK67]

Ok, sorry

[killu19]

That's just dumb. Just because someone sounds gay doesn't mean they are.

[MindTricked]

Great upload.

[hullthebull]

Cool move's or what ace track

[HowieP]

Now THAT is what music is!

[TheCobraUK]

If we danced like this today someone would kick the sh** out of you! lol god getting old sucks!

[fernandez1330]

excellent song of the floters-float on-...thank you for this unforgettable memory and the brilliant group

[CrazySexyCool34]

My dad introduced me 2 this song one day n ever since i've loved it. This is a one of a kind song.

[dw070]

paul mitchell shuts it down with the beard/fro combo

[bigga1975]

love this song!!!!!!!!

the best ever made

[reumixx]

Charles has more feeling to his groove(singing). He's bad ass.

[laughingatya]

I be around the house trying to sing like Charles and i wanna thank my girl for tolerating me cause i know deep down inside she wanna say SHUT UP!!!!!

[wweyoungster05]

Wow go Granddad "Charles" yep thats my grand dad :) never new he was a famous singer until my mom told me and her boyfriend

[Shiftyeyes516]

You should be proud - This was one of the greatest soul tunes every recorded and one of the best vocal performces .

[peterandaluz]

great song although i seem to be the only person in uk that likes them. would love an instrumental of that groove. anyway great rare footage. I like youtube for this, not piracy just reliving that golden age.

[Soultakenn]

Hey, wonderfull song.. I first heard of its samples in a new age track: Ralph Myerz and the Jack Herren Band - Loveland from the album ''Sharp Knifes And Loaded Guns''. Check this out too.. Beauty..

[rob34gwd]

Cancer ... and my name's Robert .... and I'd like to say thanks to Ralph, Charles, Paul, and Larry for helping me lose my virginity in the late 1970s, lol.

[mastertung7]

all jamaican descendants, good stuff

[israel858]

very very nice/

israel

[stnic]

thatz my joint. my white friend at work sings this song EVERYDAY, and he's a republican from boston! LOL. UNIVERSAL!

[killabeezle]

a republican from boston?? get the fuck out, no way in hell those fucking right wingers can enjoy this music

[stnic]

I swear.....and he knows all the guys' raps. "....I love everything and everybody..." LMAO

[Montedelgolgota]

Es el único que se le conoce a este grupo por estos lares peruanos, más de uno lo habrá escuchado en las radios juveniles de la época (1978), es buenazo.

[jarama77]

Such a great song and i love the eery ending, very spaced out. v. cool

[neto1772]

simplesmente maravilhoso!!!!!!!!!

[TheSizMan]

we lost in a talent show to a group singing this song, we sang a sylvers song and they couldnt even sing! the song was so popular that it didnt matter how they sounded. they sucked but they made the right song choice. but they sucked.

[screaming71datsun510]

This takes me to younger days.....a fifteen year old with hormones funning through me that would jump start a 72 Cadi I would sing it to my girlfriend...34 years later we're still married. With three beautiful kids. I became a engineer my girl an accountant. All three kids in College two at the Beach...The other at Fullerton. Its amazing how music can influence people....Great!!!!!!!!!

[innervisiondirect]

LARRY IS MY UNCLE!!!!

[PalAfuRa]

Larry is my daddy so who are you???

[USAisAntiWhite]

[magic32j2000]

This the worst ever. Cancer, and my name Larry

[mrdee11091]

thanks for the upload i remember havibg this on vinyl imperail label lol thanks

[israel858]

great song! thank you!

[nellblake]

this was and still is the sh---t. The fellas and the band had their act together. loving it big time and thanks for loving music like myself and having this video to post.

[chompa75]

Beautiful song.

[N0RAB]

This always makes me smile. So fun and excellent!

[jadesystem]

Not affiliated with the record company or the singing group at all. Nor am I marketing them. I just love classic R&B and know good music when I hear it. This group is way under-rated. They were an awesome group and I still listen to them as much as I can. The "R&B" music they have today I would not spend a dime on. Lousy and garbage with no comparison to the "Old School" sound. Everybody is copying everybody else's song with no substance or ingenuity. It is a rip-off with no effort !!

[sewitt60]

I totally agree on both points. I could listen to the old school sound forever, real music. Today's so called R&B is lazy, sloppy and catchy hooks..none.

[manuelinci]

Que vacilón estos bichitos...!

[tenniscoach77]

excellent...by shingirai muzondiwa

[gnayia]

idk but is larry the cutiest of them all

[PalAfuRa]

You like him you should see me!!! Like father, son better.

[wbc925]

any no who the bassist is, and what kind he has?

[sopitabo]

absolutely beautiful song,so underated,thanks for sharing

[tonytherock3000]

now thats how u put on a dang show

[jadesystem]

Awesome live performance with the original band members. A very rare concert clip indeed. Silky smooth, sassy soul grooven

time machine back when music was crisp and

appreciated. One of the best R&B quartet

of the 70's, and very much under-rated.

All of their songs were nicely done, and perfectly arranged with the right vocals and

instruments. Who can ever forget "No Stronger Love", "Betcha get the One You Love"

and many other classics.

[k0rrruptttttt]

you sound like the guys that try to advertise the CD's album thingo's on my TV late at night.

[HAHAHA951HAHAHA]

modest mouse float on is way fucknig better not even a comparison wow rofl i know totally different music but still wow they say this song was a 1 hit wonder on rock band 2 wtf this song sucks

[husbandjesse]

virgo and my name is shirilyn. I like quiet evenings

[wilmoh]

Capricorn, and my name is will you see i like to make your liver quiver, your bladder splatter and your but say whaaaatttt. and if you can dig what im saying this is what i want you to do.

[AithWONDER]

Float on Then!

[MANILABOY6631]

hey, dont say that. we all, . .all live for love . Black singers are the greatest in the world.

[05Carrera911]

MANILABOY6631... racist comment but it's ok to be a racist if you're black but not ok if you are white. Why is that? Affirmative action was the start of the downfall.

[e37a]

You got it all wrong, friend. The fact that we needed affirmative action to make sure that everyone had the same opportunity was the downfall!

[05Carrera911]

e37a...lol. Must be a horrible feeling to always be given special treatment as well as always be considered second class citizen.

Affirmative action and the welfare system were the downfall of this country.

[d1thundergod]

so...we are gonna have a race...the finish line is education and financial growth...now i'm gonna give myself a 400 year head start...any attempts by you to level out the playing field and erase the 400 year head start i provided myself will be immediatly labeled affirmative action and systemically crushed...sound familiar?

[USAisAntiWhite]

Always excuses. Aren't you tired of always having excuses to make-up for your lazy attitude and low IQ? You are like the Jews who are constantly shoving down the Holocust down the public's throats. ENOUGH!

[YusukeUrameshi89]

Grow up and graduate kindergarten, ass.

[DixyPots]

05Carrera911 - this is beautiful song so enjoy it. If you're on here for any other reason then FUCK OFF !! Nobody want's to hear your shit. Evey wondered why affirmative action was needed in the first place? To attempt correct the wrongs that have done from government level

Back to the song now...
