[AllDatIAM1]

This song is not by Evelyn its by Taste of Honey.

[ss6truks]

[AllDatIAM1]

@ss6truks Okay thanks. Got my info wrong.

[FIRSTNAMEMARKO]

@AllDatIAM1 This is the dumbest comment I've ever heard on Youtube. You obviously dont know music...smh.

[AllDatIAM1]

@FIRSTNAMEMARKO Okay just because I got my information wrong don't mean I don't know my music it just means I need to do more research. So Calm down and get out of your feelings. Second of all, this is the dumbest comment you ever heard on youtube? I doubt that...smh

[MrDeathdealer79]

Wish I was alive for the disco era it seemed fun

[mlindroth1]

@MrDeathdealer79 I was in college 1978, thru 1982. It was a disco blast at all the parties. I love it all. I made the tapes, and kegs were brought in, and we lined danced, disco danced....and drank womp-a-dew till we dropped!

[frichmo1]

At a skating ring in Paterson, N.J. on night, there was this woman who was wearing this very exotic costume of black and yellow. I was skating backwards when I looked in her eyes and I fell. While lying on the back of my neck with my feet over my head. This woman helped me up and she said "Are you alright?". We laughed about how I fell and landed in that awkward position. Later when the place closed and she sped off in you topless jeep, I was told by the owner of the place that she was Evelyn.

[MBInbox92]

Vice City = In a cocaine-esque haze driving down Miami beach blasting dis!

[Mr589632147]

@MBInbox92 Sò cocada preta !!!! Valeu ?

[rasmusic63]

i will never tire from hearing this song always loved it always will true DISCO

[brookerwood]

My Jam! The 5 people that dislike this tune are lame idiots I hope to never meet

[TheAdidas1950]

@brookerwood

I hope i'll never meet them too. Plain stupid today bots of our society...

[traceydemetrius]

This is my shit!

[mrql123]

I'm here because this is the kind of music if grew up with. I love my oldies!

[bongstatus01]

im here cuz this is the intro to the movie a low down dirty shame lol

[lucy661000]

Thumbs up if you had this 45 and u saw evelyn in concert and u know why her nickname is champagne and u have no idea what unsunsg is

[seminaro76]

How sad that idiots are too stupid to search for music and need shows like unsung to introduce them to music they never heard before, bird brains!

[katemeowful]

I love this song!!!! This is a classic and incredible!!

[galloway62042009]

So THIS is what Silva Hound - Spitfire is samples!

[Jafroboy]

@galloway62042009 Heh, yeah, I trawled through there too, all the way from "A plot based video" to find the origional.

[DeynatheTaggerung]

@galloway62042009 I'd hardly call it a sample. All he did was add fade and woosh effects, otherwise there's no difference between the two.

[DjAnanymoso321]

@DeynatheTaggerung i agree

[tunacellis]

@galloway62042009 Honestly I like that song, but it's hardly a sample, Silva added a small drum line as short as the 16 second sample and a few fades.

[galloway62042009]

@tunacellis As wrong as This Is. The Picture makes up for it ^^

[tunacellis]

@galloway62042009 But it's not wrong, a handicapped walrus could have made a better song. And thank ya.

[galloway62042009]

@tunacellis No I meant "As messed up as This is, the picture ON the spitfire video makes up for It"

[tunacellis]

@galloway62042009 Oh, my apologies.

[Cooljay1991]

@tunacellis Yeah I prefer the original too over Silva's. This is much more clear and crisp

[dachicagoan]

I have no clue what "unsung" is

[shonda7903]

Im feelin a little disco-y

[tresfatale]

Love this song and she was 16/17 when this song came out!!! This is real talent!

[MizInd3p3ndent21]

I LOVE THIS SONG :)

[verseauterry1962]

super.... tres beaux  souvenirs..... samy kouider

[jimmykudo23]

The cassettes in my trans am brought me here

[dachicagoan]

I can't believe she was discovered while she was working as a maid and was overheard singing. True artists are noticed by such methods (TALENT) and not because of a slutty image or other annoying persona

[10301953ab]

Great time great music this music make me fell like I'm still young and give me so much energy I love it.

[DameDisco78]

My favorite part is the chorus - "back in your arms is where I want to be", and "oh oh oh ahhhh"! Such cool music! This is a tight great composition and Evelyn is king/queen!

[capricechevelle]

Love this song. i was born in 92 !! REAL MUSIC!!!

[DameDisco78]

@capricechevelle One of my kids was born in 92 and she and her friends like disco too! Taught her how to dance the hustle when she was little, but she's always too busy to dance with me. Her dad (my hubby) is not a big dancer... :) He is still learning from me :):)

[DameDisco78]

So.. Makes me feel like hey, life is alright. Why? LUCKY to have danced in the 70's!!!!! yeahh

[DameDisco78]

Disco's anthem - oh yeah, ooo ooo!!!!

[draconian45]

My song from WAY BACK in the day.

[MisterBouncyBounce]

"mamma, she don't understand".

[bucksnbeatles]

Another great disco song...... filled the dance floor.

[discofan61]

la mejor musica de todos los tiempos.... Saludos a todos !!

[AtICSt]

odd thing is. i was born in 94' and i found all these artist my self. little i knew my dad had had em' all. he thought really highly of me cuz i like old school. ever since then i don't listen to anything mainstream. only if it comes out of the east side

[puffcandy1]

wgat happened to the 70's...roller skating on Friday Nights...I miss them

[MrGthang]

@puffcandy1 sad to say but 70's gone. Nowdays you go out listening to Lil Wayne, and other rappers delight bullcrap with handguns loaded, lots of cash in your wallet, hoping you could score on a chick and get her pregnant, and do drugs. Roller skating, those days are long gone. Sorry!

[Militarymight101]

@MrGthang its funny that this song wwas so good that i came to this vid by mistake and before i click another vid the music already made me stay lol

[MrDenbugg]

@puffcandy1 gone is the true sence of real life fun and the near thoughts of being, only a few of us can exclain ,and know whaT those years as free AS we could be. the only fights where between diffrent rinks lol. it was allways setteled on the floor mostly. If only the children of today lived and learned instead of the tec-now. would the world be a happy place. I think YES

[blackjesus22able]

1978 Freshman year at App State, man we used to jam off of this one, had some great parties, at least the ones I can remember!! LOL

[OldLadyUU]

Love this song, makes me miss the seventies.

[ferbazet]

Esto es musica!!! This is music!!! uno de los mejores temas disco!!! Hoy en

Uruguay, 24 de agosto, noche de la nostalgia, se bailara por todos lados!!! Saludos desde Uruguay!!!

[grandsx5]

I can't believe that I was 25 years old, when I first danced to this song! I loved it then, and now as a 59 year old grandma, I love it even more. Great dancerize song!

[Startrakk989]

Low Down Dirty Shame brought me here

[astonehunter]

the 60's upheaval, the 70's a settling, the 80's new directions,????

[wp8954]

@astonehunter I agree. Great observation.

[Davispa54]

VIVA THE 80s !!

[tastyfreeze111]

[roscoegino]

She was only seventeen when she recorded this. amazing. just amazing.

[samsarahmail]

I was pregnant with my twins when this song came out - I played it over and over daily,, as I danced in in the joy of carrying them! I am sure my sons were born knowing the words by heart! LOL

[ScottPSProductions]

One of the top ten of the era. Very enjoyable.

[BMDTTV]

I'm just sayin.....look @ the female artists back then. They had their clothes on. They were not naked or half naked cuz they had TALENT!!! I want all the crotch thrusting/ body suit wearing chicks of today 2 check out ole school. Sex sells but talents last forever!!! I'm just sayin!!!!!!!!!!!

[gentletumbleweed]

Call me I'll be right there to catch that time machine

[TheLucille35]

ONCE OF THE BEST INTRO OF ALL TIME" IT'S SHAME"

[ninjabob17]

[dorothymoore14]

[milesdevlon]

I gotta have this greatest hit Cd, I love ms. King. Unsung brought her back n 2 my life.

[BillionGODSun]

Classic! 

[TheAntiIntellect]

Unsung is really introducing a new generation to classics like Evelyn! Love this song!

[vlovesrafa]

@TheAntiIntellect .Yes.I love Unsung.So informative and interesting.I learned so much about Evelyn Champagne,The Ohio Players.Teddy Pendergrass,Mikki Howard,Billy Preston,Deneice Williams.Teena Marie,Mary Wells,Tammi Terrelle,The Ojays.DeBarge,Rolls Royce,The Sylvers...Hope they never cancel it.

[winoruful]

@vlovesrafa

I agree... Let's not forget The Spinners. I have been playing their music and so many others all week long.

[mizzsweettreats]

I didn't Known Evelyn was so young and started in Philly where I'm from I remember being in grade school listening to this Wow she was only 16 she still looks great even with the extra weight Evelyn if you come to Philly I'm there!!!

[Lansing651]

I just saw Evelyn Champagne King on TVOne's Unsung. She's a legend! And, she looks so young. I was in grade school when this came out and she looks like my age and I'm in my late 30's now. Her songs take me aaaaaaall the way back!

[rk44fla44]

Shame is simply one of the greatest songs ever.

[sladonn636]

If anyone watches TVOne's "Unsung," they're telling Evelyn 'Champagne' King's story this Monday, July 11th.

[MarsBar2012]

Awesome song! Still love it! You go girl! Whoooo!

[IBcutiepie]

Evelyn Champagne....you rock gurl.....when music was real.....!!!

[Dkano9]

@IBcutiepie YOU KNOW IT

[Dkano9]

@IBcutiepie I CAN STILL MOVE MY 53 YR OLD A** TO THIS!

[SyrenniaLestrange]

@Dkano9 : LOL! :)

[YoBebeMama]

this song is about breaking up with your boo, but its is so funky, that the words don't make you sad like most breakup songs.

If i had a break up i would play this song instead of that mushy shit... It makes me wanna put my "fuck em girl" dress and shake my booty and forget about that nigga lol

[FeMOGUL]

aaaa now!

[heraldleader]

reminds me of summers and the grandparents in Louisville, and FM 101 WJYL Jeffersontown-Louisville.

[vangoghmatisse1]

DANCING SHOWSTOPPER!!!! GO EVELYN!!!!!!

[cpablo63]

Dang this take me back to 1978 crusing down Central with my brother and all my friends listening to Ms Evelyn Champagne...... Dang I'm old LOL!!!!

[FuckingRockWithBass]

This is the real swing!

[nemoism]

I seen her perform this in Spanish Harlem back when this came out. KISS FM would do their yearly summer concerts, she killed it! I had no idea she was so young at the time. great tune!

[marlarice]

She looks like a young Oprah.

[lovelizabeth57]

No matter where you at when this song came on we all stopped and did our little dance it did not matter what color you were either,you could be at the bus stop or going to high school that song was and still all the way live!!!!!!!!!!

[DaveWollenberg]

Evelyn hit #9 in Billboard, 9-9-78. Amazin' how she ranged from kittenish soprano, to mannish baritone. as told in the Billboard top 40 yearbook. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

[bmoliveras]

I loved this time in my life when we were all soooo beautiful!!! ;-)

[MisterCrazyLegs]

probably on of the top 3 disco tunes of all times....if you dont shake yo' ass to this, you should sell that mofo'....FOR REAL!!

[billytsoul1]

Anyone else buy this back in the day and get the Maze EP free inside? Like Jesus handing out sweets! : )

[noteedreads]

This is the ONE song that identifies that period to me more than any other. I get a flashback to the dances, the clothes, the cars, and the clubs everytime I hear it. And let me tell ya...being a D.J. was the EASIEST JOB in the world back then. I worked in a club and at a couple of skating rinks. I thought I was "da shizzle"...(lol)

[noteedreads]

This is the ONE song that identifies that period to me more than any other. I get a flashback to the dances, the clothes, the cars, and the clubs everytime I hear it.

[Dave40522]

[TheKuttmaster]

[dweeb1100]

[AEMoreira81]

Evelyn King was 16 or 17 at the time that this song was recorded...teen singers of today don't compare.

[mjjcng8958]

@AEMoreira81 18

[MichiieJackson]

@mjjcng8958 still a teen.

[mjjcng8958]

@MichiieJackson i know but it is still amazing that she sang this song like a grown ass woman

[marlarice]

@mjjcng8958 I know that's right. I had no clue she was a kid singing this. That's crazy.

[AEMoreira81]

@mjjcng8958 she was 16 or 17; Evelyn King was born in July 1960, and Smooth Talk hit stores in November 1977.

[mjjcng8958]

@AEMoreira81 o h ok you would know i thought this came out in 1978

[spyderj1999]

@AEMoreira81 Yeah she was 16!!! lol

[YoBebeMama]

@AEMoreira81 yea its not like "oops i did it again" lol This was teeny bopper musci at its finest.

[ruthhenson]

[mariofpaiz]

@Martinlavell fuckin haitians!!!

[DCyfer]

@Martinlavell

I wish I could like this 10 times over

[RickAstley25]

@Martinlavell actually the infernus is not a lambo, is a corvette :3

[Martinlavell]

@RickAstley25 Actually the Banshee is the corvette. I think I spelled Banshee right lol

@Martinlavell oh damn, right it's just i confuse it with a newer corvette, maybe form the 90'S
