  • This song is just ooozing with greatness,the vocals,instruments,the arrangement,when i listen to stuff like this it makes me all the more upset with the music industry today,like I just wish there was such a thing as a time clock that whenever we want to turn back in time we can do so by the push of a button,well i guess thats what you tube is for,thanks youtube for just bringing us back in time man.In my personal opinion i think a singer like Marsha Ambrosis will definitly pull this song off.

  • This song was new and fresh in 1978 not the 80`s

  • This song was new and fresh in 1978

  • This song is a perfect combination of funk & real life, beautiful songwriting. I <3 the 80s...let's WORK.

  • CLASSIC, CLASSIC, CLASSIC.............if you like this try "The Flame of Love",,,,,,,,it's even better!!

  • @Inkerman1980 try millie ripperton - inside my love then treat yourself and listen to terri wells and then really treat yourself and see if you can find a better tune than dexter wansel - the sweetest pain and if you really want a master cut to top the pile, secret garden live on soul train by quincy jones. now that is music

  • @plumberowmtave You know your stuff. I`m salivating!!!

  • So this is the orginal version? I only knew the Black Harmony version.

  • An amazing old classic that still touch my heart

  • Beautiful Memory from Spring 1986. Thanks For the Post! One of the most underrated singers I've ever heard!

  • TAKE HEED FELLAS...DON'T LET IT GO TO YOUR HEAD ....NO NO NO NO

  • i remember wdas in philly good times what a voice jerry king from trenton nj

  • Beautiflu melody

  • Does anyone know the horn instrument that is at 1:43-1:59

  • @WhereIsRealHipHop hello, i don't know if the device has an actual name or what the technique is called, but it sounds like when trumpet (and i think trombone players do it too) players take like a toilet plunger head and hold it in front of the opening of the horn. they cover and uncover it in varying amounts to change the tone. kind of like a wah pedal used with a guitar. if you look through some old big band videos you might see it done.

  • @Philphine Thank you very much for your response.

  • I heard this song last week, its from my highschool days, I found finally, it a great song.

    Yes we take you women for granted, I wish I had learn this many years ago.

  • So she's the woman who sang this. I've always liked this song, but never had a name and face to the voice. I've always liked the melody. I immediately started nodding my head when it came on. definitely adding this to my favorites

  • dont kiss his butt find someone else...It's really quite simple.

  • I remember this song, OMG... I was in the 2nd grade (Mrs. Arthur's class)... and now im 39yrs old. GOOD MUSIC - NOT like this bullshyt they play on radio now adays.

    Thanks for posting!!

  • Classic! This is one of my dad's favorite jams. He loves the arrangement of the song.

  • thats my Jamn.

  • I love me some Jean Carne!! It's alright if she let's it go to her head!

  • The absolute smoothest groove ever! my dad use to roll a joint and spank a pint of wine to this..... in the 83 lac.... in 83!! CADILLAC MUSICK!!!!!

  • Love It... Real Music!

  • this song sounds way different on the radio....better different...still sounds good though...

  • winiinparis: Just leave...Life is short...enjoy the music: without him... You can do it, there's someone out there for you, trust the Universe!!

  • Don't act like you know because you don't. Just listen.

  • What do Jean Carne,Phyllis Hyman and Phil Perry all have in Common?-THEY ARE ALL ARTIST WHO SET THE STANDARDS OF VOCAL EXCELLENCE SO HIGH, THAT THE MOGULS OF THE RECORDING INDUSTRY COULD NOT PROMOTE MUCH OF THE MEDIOCRE TRASH WE HEAR TODAY.

  • one of the best

  • she was extremely underrated-

  • @gayle2020 now she is rated...by me!..

  • @thorr59

    good!! :)

  • This is an awesome song, very under rated singer...

  • one of the biggest compliments i ever had was when a young lady had this played for me on a date!!!

  • great jam!! I like it!

  • 1 PERSON IS CRAZY FOR NOT LIKING THIS SONG

  • @zantakissi who is that person please?..

  • @thorr59 It says181 likes and 1 dislike.

  • @zantakissi Thank u..I know this song since the 80s;it was a real succes in france at this time,but i would liked to know that fabulous singer in the 70s but i was too young.

  • @zantakissi Please listen the wonderful song of her:FREE LOVE...

  • Just listen to all of her Songs!

  • The most under rated female sole singer in the WORLD! Just listen to everything, every word, every note this woman has ever sung. Please know she is what all female singes should aspire to be! It pains me that this woman is not world famous. Love, Tony from Phila

  • i heard this song on the radio i fell in love..lol

  • wow now this is the real deal rare grooves

  • The problem with Jean Carne is she always sounded a women. There was never any bubble gum in her voice, no compromise.. She is one of the greats.

  • Didn't the female reggae group Black Harmony sing this song too? or where they the originals? i got alot of catching up to do on good music

  • Comment removed

  • @ericp4789 Black Harmony released their version in 1979 on Laser Records / DEB Music

  • @dakeli61 thank u for information

  • Don't let it go to your head!NO! DON"T DO THAT,lol

  • This is some good music and they need to bring that back today.

  • somebody missed the like button

  • really likes it

  • Saw her life at Hammersmith odeon back in the early 80's awesome singer. :)

  • i no this is a brand nubian sample but it is also the get money sample by junior mafia and the regrets sample by jay-z?

  • @fatbird555 No, this is a real song, a classic. Jay-Z and the rest simply steal/borrow (i.e., "sample"). Don't get it backwards.

  • Classic !

    This is a TUNE !

  • FABULOUS

  • Love It.

    Many thanks for the post !!

  • For those in London anyone who likes this music and much more from that era when music was music should come down to the Soul Shack in Liverpool Street to hear much more of this. On tomorrow but usually every 3rd Saturday of the month. Real quality music and a good crowd.

  • @spurs51 Thanks for the information. will have a look. :)

  • @wininparis

    Be patient and it will be better-- gods grace.

  • The great Jean Carne. I love this track. I also love another track, Flame of Love.

  • Always loved this track, I rate Jean in the Premier League of Soul singers, alomg with Teena Marie, Shirley Jones and others. This is a very smooth piece of music, good mesage in there too, never let the person that you love know just how much you love them!! Keep them guessing, it always keeps them interested.

  • @andygrahamme Don't know Shirley Jones,sorry,but to league Jean with Teena Marie is right on !

  • Heavy tune by Jean very powerful voice

  • yeah dis dat shit ay who is da reggae group dat covered dis

  • awesome trak i mean that musik is well arranged, the vocals are good as well, it's been sampled im sure ....great post

  • To top my musical post I have to add someone that sang about the way I feel . The Angel of philadelphia Sound, Jean Carne. What a wonderful lady... New Artist, "Don't Let It Go To Your Head." Take it from me and Jean Carne. No matter what it applies to. "Humble is the way." Bruce Hawes of "The Sound Of Philadelphia Family."

  • I was 17 when I first heard this great woman. Blew me away. Her voice quality, tones, clarity, articulation and meaning this is singing. Soulful. I still love her. 30 yrs later.

  • I was 22. It was the bomb then, and still is!!

  • The Queen of Philly Soul! :)

  • When I told my girl friend to not make looks go to her head, I was thinking of this song.

  • Liquid perfection. Still the best female vocalist I've heard along with Lisa Stansfield and Aretha, to me.

  • A cold joint

  • she very under rated and that's sad...she is awesome!

  • my fav, was that all it was, classic

  • @RaceIsOpen VERY UNDERATED.What Anita Baker was worshipped for (my respects), Jean BEEN doin' it!She's one a my ladies of all time!

  • Musical gold, Jean Carne is as up there as Aretha, and Patti Labelle atruly astounding voice...............

  • nice voice and awesome song love it

  • If you have the time, please pull up "This is your life", "Invitation", "Handle me gently", and "I am your melody" all by super producer Norman Connors with some guest artists that can sang!

  • Sing it girlfriend. I do remember. Howard University, WHUR, Melvin Lindsey and the "Quiet Storm."

  • WOW..you remember Melvin Lindsey? I remember he used to always be at the old club The Buck stops here in DC...I miss him..Quiet Storm was never quite the same.

  • Melvin Lindsey - WHUR quiet storm...Crampton Auditorium concerts on Howard University's Campus... the Black Crystal...Ben's Chili Bowl...then on to the crib...with my honey...damn...haven't been back to DC since 1983 when I graduated. My God do I remember those days!

  • WOW...Melvin Lindsey...RIP...he was the original quiet storm. there will never be another.

  • Somebody please send this song to my man cause I am about to kick his fucking ass. HE IS FUCKIN UP BIG TIME AND I AM ABOUT TO ANNIHILATE HIS ASS! Look that word up! Trust its a serious one. Use it in your vocabulary

  • Sounds like you just might be down for your man like four flat's on a Cadillac!

  • Yeah child...it's ashame...I have to use that word to on the regular...I feel you....

  • Hilarious!

  • @wininparis YEAH!!!..I LL DO IT!!!!!

  • @wininparis I feel u I really do this song is true!

  • @wininparis What ever happened to "that man"?

  • @wininparis This is one yr later and i hope things are better..but they are known to mess up big time..and we love them nonetheless..I wonder what that says about us? hhhmmm...

  • @wininparis Damn! Are we dealing with the same man??!! LOL Trust me- I know exactly what you mean!!!

  • @wininparis oh dear. I had to go there on my husband too. Try and talk to him one more time before someone is struggling to put handcuffs on you....

  • Everything you sing go's to my head Jean ! love you girl ! you are one of a kind !

  • I am 18 and I wish music today was mature like music today.

  • I love this one and will always associate this as Jean Carn signature tune. Was Jean Carn in the Jones Girls or used to sing with them? I can kind of hear her sound on some of their tracks

  • Word up, on the WHUR Hit! Wish these new music companies would push more like this. I hate the new stuff.

  • wow...what a voice...brill!! nothing more to say really!!

  • OOoooooooo...... sampled by brand nubian

    but this old school original is so tight.

  • This is a Bad Black Women with so much control with her voice, make you wanna try that note!!Likin like Josphine Baker

  • This is a classic, Quiet Storm WHUR.

  • this must be an inside joke...

  • omg. I WAS IN LOVE WHEN SHE CAME OUT WITH THIS HIT.

    GUESS WHAT HAPPEN? MY HEART GOT BROKEN.

  • Jean Carn is one of the all-time great vocalists. I've loved this song for a very long time. She is highly under-rated (I think) but is ,nevertheless, greatly appreciated. Thank you for the posting, secman37!!!

  • Sweet vocals. What a class song.

  • this is an awesome song my man-thanx
