i love this band..just goes to show there is music that will sound good for years and music that doesnt stick around...noone comes close to these guys ...not even today....wonderful stuff...
Shame the music video was not uploaded. The graphics are typical of the era without fx or cgi - not around then - but good, nonetheless! This tune is one of my family favourites!
I do not care what anyone says, I love this band! When they came to the Amp in Fayetteville, AR at the NWA Mall, I was there. A Dreamy performance indeed!
This must be the first song I ever fell in love in my life. I was all of the rip age of 6 when I found a tape on my dad's desk called 'Disco of '83' on which this was the first track (second was MJ's 'Thriller').
my husband and i are in our early 60's and we have been listening and loving this group for a very long time. my husband is a musician (flute, sax, keyboard, sings. he toured and did sessions for some of the great soul singers back in the good "oldies" days -johnny nash, edgar winters, johnny winters, ben e.king, the coasters, shirelles and others. he is now a professor of music and chair of the fine arts dept. at a local college). thanks soso much for posting!!!!!
The lyrics...The LYRICS: I can't hold back what I feel, I breathe experience...Who writes today's crap??? Groups like EWF, Chicago, Rolling Stones, etc. should be taught in media art courses in universities. These groups are still selling out arenas for a reason, And somebody PLEASE teach this new generation how to use meaningful words in their lyrics!! While you;re at it, teach them that sampling and looping music is not a real talent. I don't mean to offend, but DAMN! Enough radio crap!
Man, you always knew who they were on the radio, but nothing that they ever performed sounded the same...their creativity was extremely frightening...no other group now or then could ever come close to the level of these guys. Never.
@AJOPDX I agree with ya there. I would to peek into this man mind to see how he and his talented group came up with these extraordinary music...where does he come up with tose complex intros? And remember that the musicians he used where and are top in their game...FRIGHTENING talent
Billboard's #100 song of '83. EW&F hit #4 soul, #17 soul, in Billboard. I was wonderin', if Maurice White can beat his Parkinson's disease, will he go back out on the road with the band? Please get back to me on it. God bless!
LOVE IT! CLASSIC JAM that is TIMELESS! Larry Dunn was playin' the hell outta that synthesizer, the bass line was slammin' and that sexy vocal from Maurice White while Phil Bailey was holding it down on backup were all elements that made this an incredible track.
The Essential>Third from left Leslie Drayton (Apple Valley Lazy B Ranch back in the day) We can't wait to see what your college band produces. Felix Billie Debbie and Candy your cuzins
This sounds great on a good system..mean bass..and it soubds good in a stripclub..I know because i am a dj in one and right now i'm playing this ol skool joint as i type this.It's 12:18 in the afternoon in atlanta
Yes indeed. One helluva a song and these guys are masters of any musical universe. Wish we could turn back the clock for just a few days... U know what I'm sayin'....
I love the intro and the lyrics! I saw the great EWF for New years in 1981 at the Oakland Coliseum. They put on a great show! This music gives me goose bumps and Im a dude! lol
Yes I need to repeat it again, one of my favorite groups of all time! I just love the blended harmonies of Phillip Bailey and Maurice White's voices. They are such magnificent singers. Thanks so much for the post. This just made my day!
i was young when this came out, i was born in 1975 and this song came out in 1982 or '83 and my mom and my step dad (RIP) used to play EW&F 8track in their cars while they cruised to their hang out in the park, HEY do yall remember the REEL to REEL, cuz i remember my step dad (RIP) playing Luther Vandross BAD BOY on the REEL to REEL back in the days, what a classic
80's was a good year in music, i hope you like my favorites if you had checked it out, even though i do have 90's music on there and i hope you get a little flashback on my 80's cartoon intro LOL...thanx 80's RULE!!!
OMFG!!!!! 80s cartoon intros!!!!! You are taking me back!!!! I love the 70s, 80s, and 90s. I was a baby and a toddler in the 70s, a child in the 80s, a teenager in the early 90s, and and adult in the mid to late 90s!!!!! I miss the 80s and 90s so much!
This is the original single version that came out in late '82. I always liked it better because the later track was remixed and they turned the synth "clap" on the beat up, and it drowned out the other sound a bit.
Earth Wind & Fire was and still is one of the greatest music groups ever. Just to see how they started back in the early 70's with some great hits and continued to improve from the mid 70's into the late 80's was awesome. And how their style of music changed over the years also. I love this song.
Still Love this song sice my Dad played this album when it came out in 1983.
