  • Peter Wolf sure could dance! Also that guitar riff kicks ass!!!

  • from the movie growsn ups!

  • ooowhhoooo peter wolf dancin like a mad man!

  • There are 3 or 4 moments in this song that strongly resemble House Music stomping beats and Techno/Rave-type hooks. These guys were musical visionaries...way ahead of their time.

  • Peter Wolf's dancing is hilarious! Too bad he left the band. They were both better off together.

  • The guitar solo in this song kicks ass! Whoo!

  • the lead singer is not j geils!

  • this rocks 

  • they opened for the Rolling Stones in San Francisco 1981 at Candlestick Park,they were great ,Peter Wolf a great Dancer. one the Best!!!

  • GEILS DOES DISCO...Side 1, Track 2. This video cuts the song from the 5:11 running time found on the album. I still have my original LP (my first Geils LP - great artwork, remember?) and have NOT purchased the CD ever! Some albums just don't translate...

  • I actually saw the video on VH1 Classic but couldn't remember the name of it. Didn't realize it was on "Grown Ups" until I saw the movie again. But classic song.

  • This song is one of my all time greatest.

  • OMG I feel like I am back in my living room watching MTV for hours......

  • I live for old school forgotten jams.... Toke up an Blacklite--- candles bongs out!!!!!

    ++++++++++++++++++++++COMEBACK BAY BAY

  • Click like if you came here because of Grown-ups!

  • this is my all time fav songs by them...tha harmonica part is qued with the keybord..this band did not get the fan base they should have b/c bands like bon jovi and others was big...so this band was considered underdog band....but fuck it i love em..

  • Is that Father Guido Sarducci on the bass at 0:50? If you don't believe me, check it out!

    Actually, with that schnozz, it might be Geddy Lee... LOL

  • once again WTF happened to music

  • these guys just went...poooof

  • i think i am going to dance like this again

  • is this the song they play in grown ups when the 5 men are walking in slow motion to play basketball near the end of the movie?

  • Caught the tail end of this song on Serius today, it had been at least 10 years since I even thought of this one. Had to look it up, thanks for uploading. Love the shoes and the fancy footwork P.W. did for this one.

  • this is the perfect porn song !!! LOL Loved it since i was a lil kid !!!

  • @313ESCO wtf man. little kids see this! haha jk

  • @MyPyromaniac123 LOL.... 

  • Thanks adam sandler for using the coolest music in your movies,rock on

  • I was singing this song the chorus part when watching grown ups....i had no idea what i was singing and who the group was, Something i heard when i was 7 or 8 years old in the 80's.My wife asked how did you know the chorus before they actually started singing it in the movie? i said i dunno!

  • I haven't heard this song in ages........Thanks Grown up's

  • thats a good point about the harmonica. but you could`nt have a guy that looks that cool in your band and not have him in the vid. right?......but im lol thinking that they just unpluged him.

  • I don't hear a single bit of harmonica in this, yet that guy's playing his ass off... did they unplug him?

  • The harmonica player's name is Magic Dick

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 Thats Magic Dick he ROCKS!!!! an this song brings back 1979 like now....puff puff pass

  • @pekoe Blacklite an bong hit!!!!

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 I hear it.

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 dude with a name like MAGIC DICK he's gotta get in there somehow.

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1

    LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 He's playing the very rare dog harmonica, you and I can't hear it but if you look at your dog, he's standing at attention.

  • @tryithere : So that's it!! I think my cat likes it, too!!!

  • @tryithere LOL!!!

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 ... The harmonica is the long high pitch sound ya hear in the background... Doesn't sound like you would expect a harmonica to sound.. But that's it...

  • @Tauni1965 .....Ummm, no. ...No it isn't.

  • @DeepSouthWrestling1 ...that's why he got the nickname "Magic Dick"....I think he was in the band as eye candy for the girls. (he was a big 70s sex symbol) lol

  • Peter Wolf is kind'a goofy... I wonder if it's intentional...

  • This song rocks!

    Peter Wolf tearing it up James Brown style-- brings me back to those heady days when MTV was culturally relevant and did not suck...

  • @yogie1976 I NEVER said it sucked. I've always liked this song quite a bit.

  • This video is kind of silly though. There's no harmonica/harpsichord solo in the song so why is Magic Dick playing it? Couldn't he be playing cowbell or another instrument that sounds more natural w/the song?

  • one of my favs this i do and musta

  • Most classic rock stations today say this song is too disco for them to play which is why they don't think too highly of it anymore. Steve Dahl was one of those radio DJ's who didn't like this & probably still doesn't to this day. So this came out after Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey in '79 - who flippin' cares?! It's better than most of the pop crap that came out then like Air Supply, Christopher Cross, Cap'n & Tenille, Lipps Inc, Diana Ross & Michael Jackson. Did I miss anyone else?

  • @bucky468 Do you think I'm disco? Am I superficial, knocking hips my only goal. Maybe it's not too late to get into Rock 'N' Roll.

  • @tryithere Are you asking me a question or are you just reciting the lyrics to Dahl's silly song?

    I like this song & it's no more disco than say "Miss You" or "Emotional Rescue" by the Stones. I think the song rocks if you ask me. I always liked it.

  • @bucky468 Actually it's my favorite J Geils song.

  • i dont know about it.. its nice!

  • goin to see them aug 21 at pineknob aka dte music theater

  • Love this song. And ya gotta love Magic Dick on the harmonica

  • love this song, had to look it up once i watch grown ups , loving the solo

  • @Joeljacksonlive I know me, toooo!!!

  • Always LOVED how the JGB talent melded soooo perfectly in this great, indefinable (pop? rock? disco?) song. Stephen & John get it kick-started with a hard-driving beat and crunching guitar riff, Peter sings some strong but plaintive vocals, John gives us a tasty, screaming solo, then Dr. Funk himself (Danny) and Seth carry us out with a nice, punchy bass & synth counterpoint ending. WOW, what a great and memorable way to start the '80s !!!!

  • Anyone ever heard a song called "California" by J. Geiles Band?

  • Great song. Now on the soundtrack of the new movie "grownups."

  • An absolute fierce 80's video!

  • Oh yes... this song was the shit when I was in 9 th grade:)) Thanks for the memories! Where did all the years go...lol
