im 22 its fucked up i feel like i missed out on the best decade of all time.my parents got to live back in those days not fair ha ha!!!! i was'nt born till 1989
This is a song is a rare gem. I heard this song since I was young and I love it the same , today as much as yesterday , over the years I finally realized what the man was talking about and his words was true, until one don't go thru it , you will never know what a thin line is...!!!
Thanks for posting! Wow, this takes back memories. I remember not understanding what the woman had done to the man and asked my older cousin. She said the woman "cut him up".
I wish black kids today could know what it was like before crack was thrown into our community, before soul train allowed others on the show, before we lost the art of the fro, fo sho, you know, if you don't know, now you know fo sho.
I love this song but have been searching for the version of this song done with a reggae beat. If anyone has heard of that version, please message me. thanks
"The sweetest Woman in the world,can be the meanest Woman in the World ...if you make her that way!!" this song is Banging, of course, I was a tiny baby back then,lol :):) "Don't think you can keep breaking your Woman's H-E-A-R-T. *screaming it out LOUD* !!!":):):)
fellas, listen, dont think u can keep breaking ur womans heart, she gonna fool ya one day, ur gonna be layin in the hospital, bandaged from feet to head, the sweetest woman in the world could be the meanest woman in the world, dont keep treating her bad, didnt think she had the nerve, just think what she would have done to that bitch/slut,whore
A #1 hit for The Persuaders on the Rhythm & Blues charts. This was the 235th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #15 on the Top 40 charts. This was also the #1 R&B song when a new show debuted called Soul Train, which spotlighted R&B acts. It was to R&B what Hee Haw was to Country & Western.
This has to be one of the first of the syndicated episodes...I don't recall seeing one this far back. An awesome moment in time, thank you for posting! The syndication of R&B allowed for the whole country to be on the same page hearing these classics from week to week, not just a regional exposure.

@Seereene1 Yes, and most Soul Train performance are lip-synched...making this live performance both outstanding and rare.
But they could have done without those cheesy pose moves in the beginning. ;)
