  • i think thats Leon Sylvers with the long hair at the beginning in the sound booth....Howard is one of my fav male voices and Shalamar one of my fav groups

  • Leon Sylvers and Howard Hewitt made a lethal combination. Both are Music Legends!

  • this is a real beautiful song a lovers lament and triumph over this mortal coil

  • This is when Jody and Howard fell out. After this, Shalamar went through many changes.

  • Where is Jody and Jeffrey?

  • @SillySinger1990 i recall at the release of this album, jody and jeffrey had a war hoin' on with howard and quit shalamar. it was a " thing " at the time.

  • THis is one my favorites from the 80's.....i love the keyboards.....I knew i wanted to play when I heard this song.

  • I love this song and his voice. "The Look" is fantastic..

  • The best group ever. " SHALAMAR'!

  • Funny how Jeffrey Daniel, Howard Hewett and Jody Watley has that classic sound combination that we all know and love. The Shalamar before those classic 3 teamed up was just alright and when Jody, Howard, and Jeff split up, the Shalamar after them couldnt fill their shoes! Hell, they couldnt even tie their shoelaces!!

  • The 80's just got reborn on YouTube, a miracle there with the immaculate conception!!

  • This song is special to my wife and myself, more so me. A very sentimental time for me with great memories.. Thanks for this.

  • @kablice Who would have thought that the brother on the back row of the Sylvers would go on to be a great songwriter and producer. Out of the 8 brothers and sisters, who's still in the business??

  • long live SHALAMAR!! (the classic line up)

  • Howard bring the pain..Slammin, the vocals were, Over and Over what a great song and production...Solid.

  • i love telegenics dont u all youtube... song is sweet...beat it tight

  • ahhhh....this is from the Video soul days in the early 80's...niiiiice

  • Howard Hewett - the sweetest and most unique voice. Saw Shalamr recently at the O2 London - minus Jody of course. Brought back many good memories.........

  • the class tip top

  • 80s SYNTH FUNK ALL ON YA AZZ

  • fonk

  • lOVE THIS SONG!!!!!! IM A BIGGGGG!! HOWARD HEWITT FAN!!!

  • Still a tune.

  • This song peaked in the British Chart at No 23 on 15th October 1983

  • i wish i was born the 70s to experience the 80s kool kool music this guy look hot

  • totally brilliant !!

  • Comment removed

  • this video is erie to me because this was when Jody Watley & Jeffrey Daniel left the group right before the video shoot was scheduled. This was the sign when Shalamar fans was like "Where is Jody & Jeffrey" then it came out a week later.

  • So, beautiful!!!

  • i had such a big crush on h.h. lmao

  • When this video was made, Shalamar was a group in name only. This is why only Howard Hewitt is in the video.

  • Shalamar are the best and i say that Over and Over.

  • "i'll tell u over and over and over again~~"

    2 nasty. when he gets out of the car at the beginning. omg.

  • Don't front. How many artist today's can flow like this. Just sayin...

  • The 1st prom I went to in the 10th grade at the airport hilton which just opened. It was played over and over!! Nice groove

  • This is a great song by Shalamar and that cat seems to enjoy it as well.

  • I love Shalamar!!

  • I have always love this group too!

    Howard Hewett is a wonderful artist!

  • One of the top 3 shalamar songs for me!

  • I like Leon Sylvers production style.

  • @MrJustified1 All the commercial rap songs are going back to the 80's syntthesizer sound.

  • im not gonna say micki free was a true replacement for howard...but its evident that he did control the future of shalamar after howard left especially with the change in the sounds of music..i mean the look was semi new wave...but still rnb...it was heartbreak with mickis help that turned it into true new wave, back to rnb and new wave when howard left...so basically sydney justin phsyically replaced howard...but not musically or production wise...it was micki free, its why shalamar declined!!!

  • Jody and Jeffrey had left the group but Howard wanted to promote the album so he did this video alone... Leon Slyvers production

  • is that the the BMW dick griffey bought for howard hewett, after he stuff a million bucks in his pocket? hewett, griffey & sylvers got their wish no jody watley & no jeffrrie daniels by this time.

    ripped off artists over and over

  • This song brings back so many good memories..Howard sings with soooo much ease..damn I miss the 80's

  • Dead Giveaway video - Jody & Jeffrey, Over & Over - Micki Free, no Jody no Jeffrey. what a shame

  • Man, Howard Hewett has a voice of gold. I would kill to have a singing voice like that.

  • This man has the most mesmerizing voice...

  • Played this song so much, I wore the grooves off the album, Howard Hewitt, one of the greatest voices of all time, and one of my favorite groups!

  • This is a song i played non-stop for days, from such a great album - Dead Giveaway. And a little dedication to Bel if shes reading this. x-x This song is for her

  • Was Jody Watley part of the Shalamar group at this time (1983) or was Howard Hewitt singing to her (solo) departure?

  • Jody and Jeffrey left after the Dead Giveaway video

  • Jody and Jeffrey had left Shalamar due to conflicts with the label and Howard's ego. Howard and the label decided to release this single and video before they recruited Mikki Free and Delissa Davis

  • Howard was Shalamar.

  • @mach1man22 Shalamar was a group with 3 talented members. Jody and Jeffrey brought their dancing and vocal talents to the group while Howard used his vocal talent. He was the 3rd lead singer but was a member of a group

  • @MUSICENCYLOPEDIA i agree I hope they could get along enough to get together again. appologize and forgive.

  • @7olusegun this was the last time the classic lineup of Shalamar worked together. on the day this video was shot, Daniel, Watley & Hewitt were not getting along at all , in fact Jeffrey and Jody refused to leave their dressing rooms or even SPEAK to Howard that day. Jody is in the goofy hat and dark glasses.

  • @poetgrande08

    Ok thanx for the information;

    I kinda suspected it that Jody took Howard for granted over their relationship dealings for a long time and got her fingers burnt to a crisp shock. This mainly made her to leave the Shalamar group, to go solo and having a sweet success revenge through the fire and passion in her music career over Howard (though it was kinda shortlived). On the surface, Shalamar appear the ideal group with each other; deep within it was a completely different story.

  • top genial

  • This is the song that reminds me of my now wife, Yvonne. We met in 1981, this song is so special to me. Thank you.

  • i love everything about shalamar,especially howard hewitt

  • dont make 'em like dis no more

  • Another bomb ass track from Shalamar love this group!

  • ...sang this one the way home from work so many times, I've lost count....lead and background. LOL Great song!

  • sang it on the way home lol

  • this is still my jam.

  • best shalamar track ever.

  • @yomexmos I concur.

  • Wow, this track held up well.

  • This has gotten Leon Sylvers III all over it!!!!!! Classic track, one of my favorites from Shalamar. I hate they broke up around this time when "The Look" was starting to make waves.

  • Yeah, that album was the bomb. Really underrated, a soul classic.

  • This was & STILL IS the shit..

  • No doubt about that.

  • damn skippy

  • (C) 1984 Solar Records

  • '83, actually.
