Central Line- Walking Into Sunshine

[Ranger4608]

back in the late seventies me and my cousin used to sneak into City College to dance to this jam with all those fine women who were just trying to relieve stress between classes no one does it better than the NYC.....

[ferrazpc1]

Dancei muito quanto era adolescente. eu era feliz e sabia que era feliz.

[4evermusic61]

yeaah..! I just was browsing around for a song with similiar title and managed to listen this one.

ohh I remenber this song too, used to love listen to it on radio because of the instrumental compositions and song and background singers .

But this version isnt just that one I i remember even though all instruments are there??

Could be another group made it same song or a cover of it??

[heyroz27]

@4evermusic61 There's two versions. One is the original which starts off differently than this one which was re-mix by American DJ Larry Levan.

[garagehead83]

tears well in my eyes my dear friend used to loooove this record everytime I hear it I think of what a great friendship we had ....gone too soon dat summer of 81....

[SeZmooth]

I gotta give it up to "Club YouTube" keep the groove alive...

[Ranger4608]

this was one of my favorites mme and the boys used to sneak int City College just to dance with the older chicks Ahh! those were the days take me back to the seventies PLEASE no fighting jus dancing and wondering which chick you was going to make your girl for that summer(smile)

[LarryTeenMee]

I was actually blessed with 50 copies of this by John Brown with the beautiful chore of spreadin the Sunshine to the masses. Great hit, a number 1 with a bullet Summer anthem. Im just know realizing how blessed I was along with everyone else that was there in those moments at the PG, ZANZ, BETTER DAYS. MMW

THESE WERE THE SONGS THAT WE USED TO LOVE TO SING AT THE PARADISE GARAGE. THIS SONG INSPIRED JOY, LOVE, AND EVERYONE SANG IN UNISON. DAM, I MISS THOSE DAYS,.ESPECIALLY WHEN I HEAR THESE SONGS. AND THE RADIO PLAYED WAY AFTER LARRY HAD MADE IT THE ANTHEM OF 1981

[READY4REVELATION]

I never realized until recently just how popular American music was so popular in London. I just never thought other people outside my culture had even heard these tunes. I am glad to hear that just as many Londoners enjoyed this just as much as we did.

[tushansoulboy]

@READY4REVELATION Central Line were a London group. Lots of soulboys in London, though not as many nowadays!

[labriseventvert]

[almondjoyd236]

@TheDude8090 that is true but people like you who are aware have talk to your peers and let them know.

[DonRafa1990]

[bigrod8975]

As Don Corneilius would say this is a "groove that sho' nuff makes you wanna move real smooth"

[BreezesofConey]

This song always reminds me of cruising through Brooklyn on the BQE on a bright sunny morning in springtime, windows down, muBrisic playing, warm sun. Best of both worlds, being British and in the funkiest city on earth listening to this music.

[Xozona]

0:01 - 0:17 was totally sampled in some other dance song from the 80s or 90s and it's driving me CRAZY trying to figure out what it is!!

[Xozona]

@Xozona ....and im not talking about the LL Cool J song either...it's more of a dance song I'm thinking of

[chuckleheadzzz]

[sluna1966]

a REAL classic

[Division1985]

And you say New York City !

[hardcorehouse]

No offense to the great british groups of that era, but NYC producer Levan had a HUGE influence on making this a NYC sounding jam, at a time that NYC was the incubator of most of today's music, including rap, hip hop, house, electro. You had to live it to understand..

[515love725]

THE SKATING RINK!! OMG!! 1981

[londongeezar]

sun worship thatswhat the songs about

[MacWellNYC]

Made my day with this one!!!!! Thanx!!!!

@Kenyanalphakilo Same here because I was 15 when this came out

[cintenta]

Still sounds great 30 years later... Great record.

[twannifufu]

LL Cool J did a really good job with sampling this song. I like the original though. Nice roller rink feel.

[TheLiquidcircle]

this may be my all time favorite jam. It is uplifting. It is still my moniker when I need to hype myself up.

[4Mysk8]

yep and this use to be one of the best roller skate jams known in Tulsa Oklahoma home of the Gap Band. Remember ( greenwood, archer, pine)... Lets not forget Average White Band.. (a love of your own...) just to name a few.. peace out.

[ebantiass11]

Wow what a song still as good and as raw today as it was thirty years ago.Really really good song.
