just read in Rolling Stone magazine (the short review of Nile's new book) that he and Mr. Bernard decided to form Chic after going to a Roxy Music concert.
as I get set to watch the rock and roll hall of fame ceremonies next week,I'm still upset and feel betrayed that this band will not be there[yet again].what's the reasons behind this ?crazy..they are not yet inducted.forever a fan.one of the most influential groups ever.
I saw Chic live in Antwerp Belgium when I was a teen. One of the circuit breakers failed and the whole band lost power except the side Nile was on. He just kept on funking and Tony joined him with his naked drums. The two of them rocked it for 20 min until power was restored. Then Bernard came back in with some sick bass!!! These guys are my heroes and can never be replaced. Their music makes me tear up every time! Love you guys!!
In the 70's and 80's there was a duo of comedians in the Netherlands, portraying two scammers from The Hague. This song was used frequently in these sketches.
Please do not compare this to Any crap out right now get your own crap says the OLE HEAD from PA!!!!! Get your own From nothing to something dont sample and call it yours!!!!! Faith Evans please, with out Biggie would she be dancing on 42 St for change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Turn the Page todays music is Stale b4 its published! 2 words Waka Floka ok one more SouljaBoy music for the Special Ed student by SPEDS.I dont care if they make money they suck!!!!!
this weekend saturday october 16, 2010-----norma jean wright luci martin formerly of chic ------appearing live at disco ball 9 @ trump taj mahal casino resort atlantic city new jersey usa.
Shame on me for not knowing .. but, this sounds like that song that goes, "I never knew there was a love like this before..." Did Faith Evans sample this song?
justinbig, I would give my right arm to experience that........I first heard this in my last yr at senior school and practically melted - from the progressive intro of instruments and vocals,,,,WHAT A BUILD UP??? its up there with the gods for me!......TIMELESS!!!
I saw Chic perform this @ the "KOOLS Atlanta Jazz Festival in June 1979. Chic always did put on a great show. Chic had the "Tools & the Talent". Nile Rogers & the late Bernard Edwards were a great team. I miss those days & the music.
I remember when i went to Giant Stadium and heard them break out with this! They actually stood on stage and waited for the crowd to stop cheering before they started to play this! Just standing on stage in their poses, waiting! At first everyone thought something was wrong, then they got busy! Man you haven't heard a crowd go as crazy as we did! Miss them big time!
@tomthefunky Had to be like 78-79. I remeber it was the Kool Jazz festival and they actually gave out Kool's cigarettes in a 10 pack! Yup a 10 pack! Good music and free smokes! Now that was fun!
@gruad999 Yes i was gruad! The whole show was Chic, Sister sledge, Rick James, and some other group that i can't remember! Rick, and the Sisters were great, but to hear Chic come out in their smooth clothes and great look was just magic! They came out and stood there for about 20 minutes until the crowd calmed down, then they started to play Chic Cheer! Just magic i tell you, magic!
Hot damn, that is sexy!! It's no wonder when this stuff was being played in the clubs, people were practically doing each other right there on the dance floor! Seriously, this is music you FEEL, not just listen to.
I was still pretty young in 1984, so I wasn't in any clubs myself, but I have seen and heard a lot about that time and the years preceding them as well. Chic and the likes of them were the soundtrack to some wild times. I always wished I could go back and just witness it myself.
One of the great black groups who demonstrated originality and creativity. Rather than fucks like P Diddy or what ever his name is that ripped off grooves like this.
lp32862: Looks like a lot of us feel the same way you do...i was a teen in the 70s & the groups then had more substance than image. THIS group had BOTH !!!!
Someone old enough out there tell me what it was like to go to thier show and hear Bernard Edwards laying it down? What was the vibe in the crowd like? Did this band surprise you with thier different sounds and grooves. I wished I could have seen them.
This group gave you class,style and on stage they blew you away.I seen them in Cincinnati at The Kool Jazz Festival in 1979 after I had graduated high school they performed in the rain and brought the house down with GOOD TIMES for about twenty minutes. GOOD TIMES were had by all those days are gone.
'nard we miss you baby,you and nile,and tony were the best rhythm section the world has ever heard,i saw you guys at the glasgow apollo 1979,i will never forget it,you blew everyone away,the whole band....what a night...
It listens to this hits and other songs in RADIO DISCOTEQUE. It enters in GOOGLE or YAHOO the words RADIO DISCOTEQUE and it discovers a new dimension of radio in Internet.
i was blessed to see them perform back in their 'heyday' when 'Dance-Dance-Dance' landing on the number 1 spot for weeks on end!.They were at Madison Square Gardens' Felt Forum; AND THEY R.O.C.K.E.D.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~ 'string sections and all!!
This was practically an instrumental. Remember those? I used to wear this song out 'til my brother would snap at me. I wouldn't turn it off, I'd just lower the volume and eventually he'd leave then I'd turn it back up. CHIC, CHIC.
yes it entirely an instrumental one and most black artists and DJ's has been using it for dance, pop, rap and r&b mixes. It's like Van McCoys "Do The Hustle" one of my favorite beats.
yes simply about copyright fight in which Warner and the rest of the music labels hates youtube because they are not making any profit at all with all their products being posted on youtube for free. If most recording labels are smart enough like Itunes they should form a partnership with Youtube and create their own sites where people can download songs like ITunes.
Chic etais magnifique; stylistique; groovique if there were such a word in french -- the chemitry works [ Nile Groovr; Bernard Funk and these girls and don' t forget Tony thompson on drum)
Now I know where P. Diddy sampled his music from for Faith Evans' song. Damn, its amazing how much shit is sampled from back in the day. Nothing is original anymore. But! At least the old skoolers are making money off of it! can't hate!

I saw them a few times back in the late 70s and early 80s.
Bernard was a monster on stage. he played it with so much feel and smoothness!
He had a unique style of playing and it's still as fresh today, as anythning lse that you will hear.
This group was killed because the only thing people were exposed to, was their disco sound. On stage, they were amazing beyond that genre.
I miss Bernard, but thank God we have his recordings!
