Its a classic and maybe the best song of eruption. This long version is lovely note the thunders and music changing at 2.47 the background trumpets mute guitars and lovely strings the powerful voice the reverb that comes when she says "rain" the changing chords with a seventies disco drum beat one of best works of Frank Farian without any doubt. Its a hit combination.
today music has nothing to do with real music. them can't play music, its all digital and some dj's who has no understanding of written music. the 70's and 80's where the absolute piramid of pop music. this song: listen to this chords, the bassline is melodic, the words has something to tell.
WHAT A VOICE!!!!!!!!! Like the heavy EURO-BEAT TOO!
I used to be a DJ back in 1978 when this came out. I was lokking through the stacks of new 45's and picked this one up, played it on the sampler turntable AND FELL IN LOVE WITH IT! This is the Extended play disco disc version, love the musical interlude 1/2 way through, AFTER THE 2ND SET OF
"thunderclaps" i DON'T KNOW WHY THIS WASN'T A BIGGER HIT?
VERY MUCH IN THE MIDDLE OF DISCOMANIA! oH WELL, STILL A GREAT
@MrHitwave1 It WAS a huge hit in Australia ! And at that time, Australia was about 98% white people! Everyone who was around back then still knows and loves this track. Ami Stewarts, Knock on wood was massive too and all of Donna Summers hits also. We didnt used to think of music being black or White or anything. Just good or bad.
Great song, great performance, great look and feel from the entire band. They all look happy and really into the groove. Happy memories indeed. Fabspecmazing vocal, I much prefer those days when women sang and looked like this. I'm not being nostalgic, just realistic.
The men really looked odd in those days outfits.Still gives me a smile, but Precious Wilson really brought good music to the ears that moved the body and fulfilled the soul. She was a real entertainer and pretty and popular for many Europeans
this is a disco era classic the real thing thank you for the memories of times when music was king!!!! and dancing with a trip to heaven under the disco lights!!!!!
I wished Selena Gomez, China Anne McClain, Ashley Tisdale, and the cast from the Disney Channel TV Series "Phineas and Ferb," "Wizards of Waverly Place," and "A.N.T. Farm," should do a remake of this song (with this style of 'Eruption'). It would be AMAZING if that happened. Selena Gomez would do well singing the major solo in the song. :-)
this song need to be more mellow......the original and seals versions better than this but i guess im a little to young to judge this disco version. why do the band members wear power rangers outfits?
@chicagobears1978 This was before the power rangers....way before. Disco clothing was interesting, to say the least. A lot of very unusual colorful outfits..........
Beautiful woman, beautiful voice, and truly soulful music. It doesn't get better than this. And all we have to show for today's music is rap-crap. It makes you want to cry.
OOOeee,is she fit or what,man anyone who says RAP,aint no good,is talking major donkey balls.Some RAP is actually sublime,and moves you just like any other music form.You dont know what your missing if you get all superior on that arse.
@tf424 Off the top of my head,something not to naughty or Gd up,have a listen to Lupe Fiasco,Sunshine, AOL Sessions,paste that in the search box,its on YouTube.Game,400 Bars,with the vid,another one , tell me what you think.
Ah.....Bittersweet Disco memories of my youth. I haven't even thought of this song in decades...It was wonderful to hear it again...But sad that almost all of the friends I knew then, are gone now....
This babe must of had to have her own personal body gaurds 24/7! She is absolutely gorgeous. Imagine her singing on American Idol, man everyone else would have just chucked in the towel and gone home i reckon.
WOW! What a fucking VOICE! and what incredible vocal control and expression she delivers. Where the fuck are are the black female singers like her gone to today? That voice is an INSTRUMENT! That chick deffinately wouldnt need AUTO-TUNE!
Imagine this....Precious Wilson and Amii Stewart doing a duet. I'm not sure even today's speakers could withstand the power these two ladies would project together! AWESOME voice Precious! You RULE!!

There are so many facets and elements of this song that are absolutely great, and I love the way it turns into a hardcore funk riff at 2:47.
I also love the triple reverb/echo in her voice on "Pane".
Would be nice to see this done with real brass and orchestra instead of dub, though.
Anyone who appreciates any type of music would have to love this composition.
And yes, she is sexy to boot.
