@24Adrian24 am 46years old,I don't know which year you were born,but in the 80's ""GIVE ME '' was one of the hottest funk played in clubs,although they were British group,it was a hit,some British hits you can't buy them on itunes,and its in vinyl if you want to purchases it,I have it in recorded cassette,thats old school.

[englishpages]

As DJ, I met the singer during one of the roller discos I was doing in Crawley Leisure Centre in England. Must have been as this song first came out

[feistychick70]

Great song! I wished the radio stations would place this song more often. Bring back memories of originality in R&B music. No samples, No AUTO-TUNE...

[TheBabs17]

a1azz virgin killed this band thay just did not get it to a head of there time they did not even put it on cd

[thesouthrapsucks]

az give me yours

[cc1616]

super super funk !!

je voudrais remonter le temps !!!

[loveflares]

If someone don't like this tune and critisating it then there must be something really wrong with him/her. This music only deserves deserves good comment and thumps up!!

[CookyMonzta]

@loveflares I'd bet good horse money that many of them weren't born when this song hit the record racks (Sept./Oct. 1982). I was just starting my junior year in HS, and WBLS was all on top of this one, just as Frankie Crocker was about to give the Material Girl her first push on radio.

[loveflares]

@CookyMonzta Yes i agree you, i also wasn't into this era( I wish i did) but i really love this kind of musics and respect all of them, i saw many negative comments on this music so i had to tell them what i said.

I don't know why people listen to a music that they don't like and give comments like that here :0 Do you know Sandy Kerr - Thug rock song? It's so similar music to this one but i don't know which released firstly lol

[jmwingding]

Another awesome 80s funk-tified gem.*

[ikawpipa]

MAHUSAY. 

[KOHLSOUL]

F U N K BABY REAL MUSIC!!

[aztechief]

I first this while I was stationed in New Jersey in 1982. I heard it on NY radio station called 92 KTU The HOTT ONE! With Roscoe. I brought it back to Cali with me and bumped it and people went nutz for it. Back in the day before music went digital, music would hit east coast radio stations before they made it out west.

Peace

[lopresti21]

one of the best songs ever! i miss the 80s,u have no idea..

[Bijan630]

I completely forgot about this song! Thanks 24Adrian24 for sharing this one.

[Baltimorehop]

The lyrics are suspect as my wife schooled me but this music to this track is one of the greatest tracks out of the '83 era.

[theresavtaylor]

Love it !! You brought back some memories for me.

[jamtavares]

Esta musica é um manjar dos deuses para os meus ouvidos.

[romedaddy215]

Love this song thanx!!!!

Brings back 80's memories!!!!

[barlouch]

i usually hate Funk Music but this one and Juicy Fruit from mTume are TIMELESS!!!

[24Adrian24]

@barlouch Not sure if this is/was considered Funk music, but I got ya!

[barlouch]

@24Adrian24 it's FUNK MUSIC point blank,sorry dude!

[vibrations111]

@24Adrian24 Hehehehe,who told u this is Funk?

[Dancer810]

@24Adrian24 This is not considered funk; more disco than anything else.

[izakteaz]

@24Adrian24 U crazy if u dont think this is funk

[TheStrawbeery]

@barlouch i think i get it you like some old school you don't love olschool music

[MrMunich68]

[aliveandconnected]

Yes!!! One of favorites for real!!

[djronniem1]

i had the pleasure of introducing this band years ago when i was dj ing in a club, just cant remember what one fantastic track.

[MrJames07111]

bring back tha roller rinks,thank god 4 u tube

[Tonedef67]

Man what you trying to do to me. I was screaming hearing this jam. Took me back to an awesome time with this. Wicked Track

[mrslideinsideu2]

Damn!!!!! They dont make em like this anymore! ive been searching fot this song for almost 10 years. Too may rap songs were spawned from this jam, check out "The Love Movement Album" , Tribe Called Quest's last album. They used this song for 3 tracks on that album alone. Not bad at all. Thanks for posting this song!!!

[tskottowe]

The whole album is ggggreat guys! Other top tracks from the album are Teacher (also great naughty lyrics) and Music. In fact there isn't a duffer on the whole album. I only have in on vinyl I'm afraid.

They had a follow-up album which I also have which had 'In the sand' and another great track but I forget the title - something like 'The River' ?

But the first album was just brilliant !

[rachel1726]

great funky tune........man where did the time go ????????????? i was so young when this came out. a classic

[missfrasier]

still cant believe someone actually posted this song this is atrue miracle

[feistychick70]

[TheWindy62]

Found them years ago, think they are Brilliant especially Treacle & Give Me. Wish I had them on CD for the Car!

[gkles]

[MsCreativexpressions]

AAAW SNAP this wasw da song my baby used 2 sing 2 me n high school-i cant wait 2 play this 4 him- its been 20+ years

[rebelarewe]

i think it was 'Thug Rock' by Sandy Kerr...

Am I Rite?

[bouverieboy]

That bass line was also used in a funk track from around the same time. Can someone pleeeeease tell me what it was? It's bugging me like crazy.

[trumprosie]

i gave what i couldn't get back and at first that sh*t hurt like hell butt once I got used to it, it got better and better and all of a sudden I needed something bigger and bigger and harder and harder - ok so now do you get the picture....

[justinbig9]

Man this used to be one of the songs that i would bump on the JVC boombox! Never knew who made it but i'm glad i stumbled across it! Thanks for the postin it!

[24Adrian24]

Im right there with you...class of '84 yeah there were some serious joints in that era!

[da112568]

Cool. Right now I am trying to find alot of missing 12 inch singles on cds. I am very fortunate and shock to find alot of 12 inch singles on youtube from the eighties and nineties on here. Its hard to find 12 inch singles. I want to hear Birthday- Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. If you have it guy I would like to hear on youtube. I remember that song when I was in the eighth grade hearing that on kiss fm radio station. Man thanks.
