  • The Jam~

  • Slow jam time :-) ...Now we need "Promise You Love" the song were Michael Cooper says at the end of the song.. "I just wanna get the hair out of your face so i can see whatcha doin' " :-)

  • I saw them in concert back in 1979. Michael Cooper and Felton Pilate tore this song up.

  • I remember I thought that I was slick. I wrote the lyrics to this song and I gave them to Takayalah when we were in Mr. Satzinger's class I got an A for the poem cause he didn't know it was a song already Later on Takayalah got it out of me that was indeed a song we laugh but I blew it that day but she was still real cool with me She was the most beautiful and coolest girl I ever knew in my life. May she rest in peace. She's probably laughing and calling me silly right now LOL

  • I saw them in concert in Chicago 2 years ago. They still have it! A real band at work

  • Real music!!!

  • Who in the hell could possibly dislike this song? Must be some kids.

  • The Bay Area proudly presents Con Funk Shun!

  • just sampled this. good stuff right here.

  • One of my shower songs!! GREAT MUSIC, MUSICIANS, N ENTERTAINERS!!!!! PLEASE COME BACK!!!!!!!

  • this is a great song.

  • A BEAUTIFUL BEDROOM SONG

  • In 1974-1975, Con Funk Shun lived in Memphis, TN and performed every Friday & Saturday night a club called "The Rosewood". I was always front and center. I was in my late teens then, early 50's now, but still love them just the same. To watch Cedric play that guitar was awesome and just listening now takes me back!!!!

  • I love this song!!! This is when music was great to listen to and had a positive message in each song. No vulgar language, no disrespect, just good music. Put on the right song and set the mood!!!

  • Thank you DallasChitown....us seventies folks need this kind of jam

  • TEDE KRÓL.

  • I LOVVVVVV THIS IS MUSIC!

    unknow

  • LOVE IT!!  3X'S BABY!!

  • Classic!

  • Damn I love this jam!!!

  • Let me put some Loving on your mind !

  • I wish they had the instrumental version of this song. I'd take this song to church!!!

  • Stereo version here: watch?v=Z4B2zWSiwrc

    Even more enjoyable!

  • I am playing this over and over again...just "thanking".....Can tell what Im "thanking"....but for all of you out there who are old school...you know this brings back memories..... Yea I see ya nodding your head....Confunkshun, you are the best!!!!

  • @Michellez818 You got that right!!!!

  • i need more video of con funk shun back in the days help

  • these boys still got it too,,they performed at the Carter Baron amphitheater in DC..Michael Cooper can still find that high note and Felton Pilate plays all the horns and writes his natural ass off...their fast songs are a hit also but I am a ballad man who loves voices weaving in and out..Young-uns know nothing about slowing down the pace just a taste and lovin on your baby in slow-motion..no faster than 5 mph til she says differently but you continue with the slow motion potion..Dallas U OK

  • My sister use to play this song every morning, it was our national anthem. When I start experiencing love, I could relate. LUV this song!

  • AWESOME SONG!!!!!! can't even put it into words. SIGH!!!!!

  • 4 dislikes? This music is as good as it gets! Few could re-make it with any effectiveness. Whether R&B, Dance or Love Songs, Con Funk Shun was top-notch in all categories.

  • My pops played this at a bbq on father's day and I couldnt remember who sang this song until he told me havent heard this in a while

  • lawdy I've been put on blast!!!been hiding in my room all my life!!!

  • Tre Songz sampled this song on his very first album on the song "Cheat On You" Funny how alot of the younger artists always sample from the good stuff from back in the day but what perplexes me is that they don't try to make music at the same standard of the stuff that they sample from???

  • Damn, i miss this music sooooo much!!

  • Neyo or Usher could do a nice remix of this.........

  • simply the besttttttt!!!!!!!

  • @MrEdubajista No sweetie, be thankful the good Lord allow you to be here when he did. Just enjoy these predious time pieces while you can. But I do understand.

  • Oh! yes! Take me ther!

  • Great music

  • @GhostAvenger620:

    One way to bring on diabetes is too much sugar in your diet. Hypertension can be brought on via the consumption of high sodium (salt) content foods.

    But I get your point. LOL. The "thumbs down" folks just don't get it.

  • The 4 people that put thumbs down on this wonderful song need to eat a fat salty one and catch diabetes.

  • This is the way that music is supposed to be written. To the heart and to the soul!

  • Talented musicians…WOW what a concept !!!

  • Comment removed

  • People say I'm born in the wrong era :D

  • dedicated to Lisa R Ford

  • loove it!

  • Young folks don't have a clue!!

  • @nuckie916 NONE WHAT SO EVER!!!!!

  • @nuckie916 they have not a clue at all!

  • @TheAithWONDER shoot us good old boys at the age of 23 need it back just as bad if not greater than, every thing sound like rave music and it hurts my mind as well as my soul

  • @rockfiendable I couldn't agree more I'm 24 and i can't stand the shit they got playin today

  • @TheAithWONDER It won't ever happen again because people back then actually had musical talent with their instruments and voice. Music is so watered down and pre-packaged nowadays. Everything is done with a machine.

  • Back in the day I was a big Metalhead, still am. but one of my best friends was black and we would go over to his older brothers house now and again and smoke some weed and listen to Con Funk Shun and Cameo and all that stuff. Man it was cool getting a chance to listen to all that great music that I otherwise wouldn't of,other than the generic radio songs which were never the ones that really jammed.being a guitarist i really dug the Isley's .His bro played alot of Rose Royce as well.good times

    I appreciate like minded CONFUNKSHUN music lovers. Keep the music playing.

  • nothing like old-school music. confunkshun is the best!!

  • southside parties to this jam

  • the year was 1979, and this world we live in now was KINDER, GENTLER & MUCH MORE PATIENT in many respects; however, we had music like this to jam to. Music that touched your soul, music that slowed you down, and made you think of something other than yourself!

  • @kemjahi YES! Well said!!!  Thank you for THE TRUTH!!!

  • This song is deep, the words are something else.

  • This song Rocks on so many levels it ain't funny! This is End all of Jams!!!!!!!CON FUNK SHUN!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT GUITAR RIFF is UNSURPASSED*****

  • The thing about these groups and bands are they didn't use tracks, you got it live and they were free with their instruments....this is the real deal!

  • Talking about "THE RED LIGHT SPECIAL", whoo this song make u wanna come home early from work and work the red light special for your man soon as comes thru that door....

  • @Choosey45 Yes! It was great to put that arch in her back; while slow-dragging across the room.

  • remines me of  back in the days of sonora*********

  • These guys are one of my favorite groups ever!!! I saw them in DC and Felton Pilate sang his behind off.

  • true there is some real music left but back then all of it was the shit not just a certain few

  • Great old school song

  • Felton Pilate and Michael Cooper singing their asses off/

  • Yea fo sho.....there one of kind

  • Beautiful song...love you Confunkshun!!!

  • Truly good music. They dont make them like this anymore.

  • very cool!!...very soulfull!!

  • Listen to the lyrics, carefully. The singer said let me put "LOVE" on your mind, not sex, screwing and all the other vulgar terms. He said let me make you feel safe and warm. Didn't call her a ho, a b***ch either. He wants to treat her like a woman who deserves to be loved and cared for. Some young men need to learn this lesson and some older ones, too.

  • A different time a different life and I'm glad I was around to see it! They can keep the music of today because it's not real music like this!

  • @carcotton. Many of the neosoul artists are still getting it in, but getting no spin time at all on the radio. Raheem DeVaughn, Maxwell, Anthony Hamilton, Dwele, Van Hunt, Sade still doing it, there was D'Angelo but smh... and of course Bilal and Raphael Saadiq. But I agree it was a totally different era and I'm sure it will never be duplicated, soul. Would have loved to be around then, jealous.

  • well, I'm a "kid" who discovered this music a couple of years ago and I got to say that there is nothing better than classic R&B and funk.....but in general the crapola that kids listen to these days is not gonna last or be remembered like these songs : )

  • Do you all hear that guitar?! this is music

  • 3 words for yall, Oh My GAWD!

  • @AithWONDER Three more:

    Hell Fawkin yeeeah

  • as anyone else noticed the new wave of cointelpro spammers?

  • I wont ever forget this song ,lots of good and bad memories thank god u live and u learn,

  • What a song. This takes me back.

  • holy shit it looks like they cloned all guys

  • Best Bump and Grind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Wow, what memories this brings back.....this is true music by true musicians....thanks for posting!

  • Alot of things about this band has to be noticed. Of course the Falsetto. Also the guitar playing was outstanding. I cant believe it took me this long to look this group up. And BANG, here they are. Over thirty years ago I heard this song. And the first time I heard it. Im really surprised it didnt make the mainstream radio to be a top hit.

  • This is the best song they ever produced if you ask me and i am a old school music expert!

  • Hey 43rdcicero !, Are you one of my sisters that was cleaning right along side me...lol. Exactly how it was for me as well !!! Go Con Funk Shun... I love it !!!

  • If you grew up in the 70"s surely you remember your moms playing this shit on sat morning cleaning the house and you didnt have a choice but to listen and learn and eventually love oh dont i miss those days!!!
