[rascalboy09]

how can anyone with a sense for great music doubt this song's influence? - Seriously GREAT !!!! 

[MissSusieQue1]

Do you guys know that Cheryl Lynn had her big break on (of all things) The Gong Show? Thats going way back.....but its true. 

[stanleysanh]

I feel like going to the mall and trying on every suit and walking out of that store like a boss in a fresh new suit and this song playing in the background.

[thadboy916]

THUMBS IF YOUR MOMS USED TO SING THIS TO THE TOP OF HER LUNGS!!!

[Donfrak]

Oh carlito's way xD

[Startrakk989]

AHHHHHHH!!!! Im tired of this fish dancing around in my head that sounds like will smith!!!

[classsymaid]

[bananozder]

Brings good memories of SATC - The episode The Real me :))

[magicmonkeywow]

BEST. SONG. EVER.

[Keara4evaG]

This song is the best. I love all old music. thats how I like my music: Its got to be real!!

[matlockprincess]

oh I Love this Song.



[mckill85]

Carlito's way :) <3

[TheSeriousmrkarate]

Now that I listen super closely to the melody of this song, It reminds me of biggie smalls's "Big Pappa", the background melody. His 'Big Pappa" Song melody sounds like it is a variation of this song in some ways in my opinion.

[smackemgood]

Thumbs up if you're watching this because of the youtube poop

[718LIGHTUP]

The 70's and alot of cocaine brought me here.

[justaman6972]

Cheryl Lynn and her "Got to be real"..... when artists were artists and MUSIC WAS MUSIC.

[TheSeriousmrkarate]

@HouTown1 Cause It Was Real :-)

[koekoeloeloe]

fuck yea bra, got to be real bra

[MatheusMK3]

We need an instrumental/karaoke of this music, just because of the bass line... :P

[MUSICLIFE738]

20S 30S 40S 50S 60S 70S 80S 90S BIRTH OF REAL MUSIC IT STOPPED AROUND 2003 OR 2004 BUT THEY STILL HAVE GOOD MUSIC CERTAIN SONGS

[young7773]

love it when i well, n/m

[ItsNanna97]

@nirrox

I feel you, dude. But in all respect.. What I'm trying to say is.. Most teenagers nowadays don't really take the time to appreciate this kind of music. If it doesn't have to do with sex, money or women, it's basically crap, or so they think. And music can be fake. Autotune and that stuff.. ain't like this. This song is incredible and they didn't even have autotune. Which is saying a lot.

And guess what? I GIVE A RAT'S ASS ABOUT ME BEING A TEENAGER ;D

Old skool forever!

[TheLoneWolf52]

Way Cool my friend. And in 2009 she still jams this song! Awesome talent still!

[WootPandas007]

@ItsNanna97 im so glad im not most of those teenagers :)

[Bouncibabii]

@ItsNanna97 I am a teenager most of the music I listen too is old;but i know wht you mean

[msparker271]

God... miss driving with my dad and bro listening to great music like this, just cruising the countryside

[EmceeSlick4life]

@msparker271 lol same here, i wasn't countryside but i would roll around and pops would slap this somethin tough, then rap came along and changed my life, still love the oldies though

[TheDevildarkness666]

it's cool

[OnyxAllure]

brings me back to old road trips with the family

[KyleHardlotte]

That is some funky bass line. ^-^

[itsconnorstime]

King of the Japan.

[TheMsPoundcake]

LONG LIVE OLDIES BUT GOODIES....I LOVE MUSIC SO MUCH!!!!

[vivmalcolm]

I used to think this was Chaka Khan but now I now Cheryl Lynn has an amazing voice - she does the vocal bit half way thru Toto's Georgy Porgy which is the best bit of the song - check it out if you don't know it yet it is excellent also.....sounds a little bit Average White Band also excellent.....enjoy and keep it real real real real

[MachiavelliSS]

Funky

[3132asujsu]

i love this song, it's so smooth. the bass line is a killer

[konked]

@3132asujsu Am I mistaken or does Joe Bataan's Rap - o - Clap - o - have this line almost note for note ?

[TheHawkster2012]

I agree with drumfreakk97 & OwenTriumph

[drumfreakk97]

Thumbs up if you are in love with the bass line to this songg<3

[OwenTriumph]

@drumfreakk97 THE BEST PART

[turquoise770]

@drumfreakk97 especially when the bass player unleashes at 4:10

[SMDforTacos]

[Rubhaiti]

one of the reason why i'm avoiding little by little sucked parties!! when i'm listening to this song and i compare songs they play in events now!! it's a pity!! THAT WASN MUSIC, and that time is about to die

[jigglyfidda125]

5 people need to go to their local optician to order eardrops

[joanie718]

Jam/disco roller skating. . . . Still love to jam skate to this!

[jlnae]

this song makes me dance!! Along with all the other songs in this genre. Man, I miss good music!

[BadBitchJordynn]

Just heard this song on Carlito's Way... had to look it up. it's a great strip song haha

[Startrakk989]

For some reason what so ever this reminds me alot of shark tale

[astonehunter]

we calz dat thump magic baby, garun teed to make an ass shake

[thestoryteller612]

the song starts on the 4th second, so you could turn the volume up! :D

[alshouse]

This is a perfect pop/R&B song :)

[famolamify]

[Okhankx]

Really a masterpiece !!!

[Tazniaa]

5 people have no taste in music

[CarsonRobinetteMusic]

[MoveMakerTV]

@CarsonRobinetteMusic lol it does have that effect

[bmaloy9]

[tnawcwvictoria]

@bmaloy9 and also, on The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch

[reatha26]

I absolutely love this song!!

[espearite3]

At home dancing in my shoes!

[TheHippieHooper]

nice bassline

[SamuraiClinton]

Played at the end of that one episode of King of the Hill where Bobby goes to the arcade with the Japanese chick. Boy was there a scene where Bobby told the guy to stop the car. People gotta stop having fixations with lost causes on possible relationships, seriously that is how the youth is getting in trouble in the modern day of which it is ironically an integral part of how this song was made.

[theilluminatee]

i feel blessed my ears have heard such sweet music!

[danimass]

make back to back on pair of technics at 0:50

[FelipeSlashGuns]

I know bout a sample a homie did with this!

[22v68]

I discovered this tune in the early 90s after watching a film/documentary called Paris is burning about drag queens in NewYork.

I love it so much

[MrRyanF]

@22v68 lol i discovered this while watching carlitos way, the strip club scene...

[ibelingem]

love dhizz

[Tiffanys3]

Preciosa! :)

[Hal20062b]

1978 or 1979

[amandablasques]

I'm 17 years old, and I just freaking love this song! :DDDD Well....I love oldies in general, so...I guess I was born in the wrong time :) ...My friends will probably make fun of me for having this tune on my cell, buuuuuuut.....I'd rather listen to this than Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez ...*cof* *cof* some singer who name shall not be said & rhymes with 'beaver' : x AWEEEESOME SONG! \o/

[Missann168]

I luv me so old school nobody cant top this

[maveric23100]

I was interning at a corrections center the winter of 78. I was also in love. An incredibly great time. So much fun and passion.

[tiagozika20112011]

eu era pequeno ouvi primeira essa musica

[rhea1979ana]

MUITO BOA!!!

[ericdanzig13]

Dance-u?

[2015runthis]

This is favorited because this song just makes you happy.

[ItsNanna97]

teenager, surfin' the web, and listening to this:] now this, is real music. sorry lil wayne and niki manaj, but uh, you can't top this, i'm sorry. :)

This Is What Music's All About. Old Skool Will NEVER Die :DDD

[Shagxp123]

@ItsNanna97 Soul never dies man, Soul never dies.

[QUIZFILTER]

@ItsNanna97 Thats fuckin' killer!! I love to hear you say that! I'm 31 year old guy & I LOVE music of all kinds "underground"hip-hop/ electronic UK stuff/ indie rock/classic rock/almost any& every once in a while I'll hear somethin' from a "mainstream" or typical overplayed MTV type artist & I'll actually kinda be into it, but even then its usually ONLY because the music and/or beat itself is good(I'm not even listening to the words), but anyways my point was ya these old jams are fuckin' sick

[MsTanet]

@ItsNanna97 awesome!



[nirrox]

@ItsNanna97 Who gives a rats ass about you beeing a teenager :S Thats so irrelevant. Music is taste, some people even say that bands like slipknot, lamb of god and such aint music. But it is real music. I mean how can it be "fake"

[Amoniak71]

@nirrox actually i'm still a fan of slipknot ( old slipknot only) but it can't make me dance. This kind of music is more what i like to have fun!

[xxxThexReseshionxxx]

i wanna buy a time machine...

[ThatSmoothOperator]

Everytime I hear this I think of Jazzy Jeff mixing.

[godfather007ist]

[MellieBellie16]

@TeriHearts

[skillzdatkillz900]
