[fuzzyeggyolk]

Hey nice stuff for sure.

[titidij2]

the bass guitarist is too funny :-) , I love this song.

[terryb100]

I love this song. Sure brings back memories



[fredgrohl]

I love it that the XX covered this song

[jjsassenach1]

Was this not voted best dance song of 1988/89. Terrific

[loupremo]

the chorus needs a little more cowbell

[TheBazza1957]

Linda Womack is Sam Cookes daughter,showing that talent runs in the family.

[themountfamily]

Love this song. Her voice is so soothing.

[JimBryanMusic]

I've always loved this song, I remember searching for it as a kid cause I had no idea who sang it. Sure was frustrating when all I wanted to do was play this over n over again.

[popinic07]

Well, I don't get this, but I love The XX's version.

[shlomonew]

so coolllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­l

[cellbound]

Who is the girl with the red bandanna?

[YeahItsOlivia]

@cellbound I THINK Its Ellen De Generes.... I dont know though... ill check it on the old "google" lol x

[L4linda]

The BLonde backing singer has gotta be Ellen de generes . .. it is!!!!

[zetternam]

@L4linda Is it really? I fell in love with this girl as a teenager....

[L4linda]

The BLonde backing singer has gotta be Ellen de generes

[TheMamba555]

joj toto je že superrr

[jabsukkill]

i love this song but i have to say rebecca fergusons version the other night on xfactor was the best ive heard

[jamie1994100]

@jabsukkill wrong

[turnonstan]

They were song writers for Philadelphia Int., the inventors of disco, before they started performing as Womack and Womack. The craftsmanship shines through.

[lacey72]

@turnonstan well nah mate

[yelsel1000]

Brilliant, one of the best, bring it on, great to dance to

[martinbutt]

This song is amazing. An all time great.

[haagsesmurf]

een heerlijk nummer terwijl je in de kroeg aant werk was en dan naar huis en dan nog ff womack and womack draaien

[tricksandarchers]

The xx covered this at their show in Oakland! Fucking great!

[muc390]

classic! damn i love this! 

[MsDeepestmind]

Das sind Erinnerungen an eine tolle Zeit in den 80igern,wenn dieses Lied kam,zog ich die schuhe aus und stürmte auf die Tanzfläche, es hatte einfach den Beat für mich, schwelg, träum:-9

[MsDeepestmind]

classic and I love it

[solskjaerutd]

I was in a bad mood till b4 i listened to this tune...not anymore love it, love it ,love.................IT! :)

[linda3151956]

jedes wochenende im display und die tanzfläche gerockt bei dem lied. das war noch super musik. schöne erinnerungen.

[whiff1962]

Ah, look, ebony and ivory are groovin' together. The music don't feel the same...

[AAInventors]

Nice Funky Beat So Simple that its Complicated....

[emi2slim]

my fav 80s song ever its really turn me on nice music.

[CADAblaZe]

goddamn nice song !

[CRISSYSEE]

nods and clicks !

[ajain411]

classic!

[1tealove]

I've got love for you if you were born in the 80s. The tunes released were all so good, shame that everyone walked round looking like a twat with rubbish hair, either on strike or on the dole. fucking Maggie and Ron ruinied it.

[tonysohungry09]

WHY I LIKE THIS

[SoleilAndalou]

J'aime beaucoup cette chanson et le groupe, merci beaucoup.

[MrKuemelmonster]

thats good!!!

[fanny57950]

I love this song

[users3247]

what exactly does bobby womack do here?

[Tektemir]

Yes, sad actually, but rather romantically sad and melancholically cool in the sense that a kind of hope or sweet memories arise in a moment of lost-in-thought-rest.

[1tealove]

@Tektemir ha, how well put. do you wear a velvet jacket and a monacle and smoke a pipe

[rapgeschaeft]

the blonde one is lee ann womack

[Ferry1967]

@rapgeschaeft No she isn't... The womacks are Cecil Womack (1947) en Linda Cooke Womack. Cecil was formerly a part of the Womack brother. Just like Bobby Womack. He's not in this song. Bobby's well know for the song 'Across 110th street'...

[Echobelly10]

I think the blonde is Ellen Degeneres!

[skoobi25]

@Echobelly10 Ellen Degeneres ?

sigh .. sack ur Optician (sp)

[fofoitkonen]

i like the blonde background singer!

looks quite cute!

[placencia009]

mamma mia questa canzone è bellissimaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lylymad]

As far as I am concerned, this is not a happy song that makes me want to dance but it's a sad song. However, it's one of the most beautiful and rythmic sad songs I've ever heard.

Bring back the 80s, pleaseeeeeeeee!

[AkiCZ]

anyone know what kind of headphones they are using? musthave! :-)

[JazzyGB1]

Yep - Beyer DT100 headphones - A bit of a standard in recording studio's!

[katja19845]

A very optimistic song

[godhelpme2009]

@jrowland67 , i can C how U could say that about Badu.I'm a Badu fan & she's got her own thing going on too, but I don't think she is as much of a singer as Womack, if you know what i mean. I really like Badu but there is a fuller range of possibilities in Womack's voice & vocal skills.She's just the better singer.This is no insult to Badu.I'm sure some would prefer Badu,but regardless of the music or style I think Womack's glorious talent as a singer/musician pour through like sunshine & honey

[coolfather86]

The xx's cover is neat.

[mainface]

@coolfather86 thought it was a pile of old wank myself

[jrowland67]

Maybe it's me but her voice and the way she looks makes me think that Erykah Badu is a modern duplicate of this lady.

[RFDlic]

sound f*cked up by any flanging machine.

Or is it poor mp3 resolution?

[aboja111]

nice sounds combination----just wow....80´s rock ....today all the shit! forget it ...back to 80´s...i m 26 ...but 80 was my sleep music when i was young....phill..and and and.....

wow......

[celinesierra]

oh my god, its totally ellen degeneres! at least from the side it is, thats awesome. aha. go ellen.

[Atomicgal]

That's Ted McKenna former Sensational Alex Harvey band playing drums and college lecturer at North Glasgow College! I think anyway.. it's defo his hair and drumming technique! He used to tell the class of the big bands he played with!! Ha :)

[BlackPride1000]

@Atomicgal Can you tell me if Womack & Womack are related to Bobby Womack

[rapier5]

You could say that.. You see Mrs. Womack is Bobbies step daughter. Her father was Sam Cooke. Bobbie married Sam wife very soon after Sam died. A huge scandal. I don't think the baby girl was born yet. Later Bobbie and the former Mrs. Cooke divorced. So the girl was barely Cecil's niece. Still, quite a tale.

[BlackPride1000]

@rapier5 Wow !! Sam Cooke. I thought the man was related to Bobby. I would of never believed the lady was Sam Cooke's

daughter. Thank You

[Atomicgal]

@BlackPride1000 i'm sure Bobby Womack was married to the singer! It's something I need to research further :)

[acefreaky]

cracking disco funk 80s style and so cool makes me want to dance !pretty timeless like stevy wonder ,a song for eighties freaks

[ThefreshK]

Is that Ellen Degeneres in the backround??? It realy looks like her, haha

[gheorghe1956]

One of the best ever...Not many things to say...Just enjoy it...

[ari12689]

[ruderkonge1976]

[scally92]

thats right bud best part of song

[biccy1]

fantastic

[Death1121]

The 80's ruled so hard. Glad I was born in the 80's ^~^/

[TommyVercetti214]

@Death1121 Sad I wasn't born in the 80 -.-"

[ceeeluvv]

@TommyVercetti214

you needed to be born in the 60s or early 70s to appreciate the 80s. otherwise, you would have been to young to have really experienced it.

[ceeeluvv]

@TommyVercetti214

you needed to be born in the 60s or early 70s to appreciate the 80s. otherwise, you would have been to young to have really experienced it. I was born in the 70s but I'm a 90s BABY!

[TommyVercetti214]

@ceeeluvv That's why i'm sad, i didn't really experienced it. :(

[Genedancingmachine]

The lead singer looks fuckin cool

[bisondj1]

womack+womack

the xx

sugababes...

perfect song with smooth lyrics

[fizzlebug]

Amazing song... Reminds me of beautiful sunsets in the early summer...

BTW: Anyone know the chords for this song? Please reply if you know them, I'd love to do a cover of this gem!

[pvtchef66]

the white girl looks like a long haired version of Ellen Degeneres!!!!

[matdepwjiraiya]

'88 rules!

[flemasable]

What is name the girl who singing? Maybe it's stupid but when I hear her I always think that's Erykah Badu ;d heh

[difolk]

@ Flemasable : It's Linda Cooke, the daughter of Sam Cooke, the greatest singer of all time. For me, she's far far from her father's talent

[Cheesecream500]

Does anyone know the name and the artist of a song from about 1978 with these song lyrics: When I wake up in the morning, the very first thing that I do, I turn on my radio and I listen to Y O U

[badekargeneral]

Breathtaking.....they got the rythm !

[charliechutney]

After all these years, I'm still in love with the blonde backing singer.

[jaqand]

[psych0p4t3]

@jaqand failed attempt at humor or just being too stupid to understand that it is wanted?

[knockout1981pro]

Why are the youtube ppl constantly changing the youtube video player? leave shit as it is sometimes! that whats wrong with the world nowadays, always wanna be better, go higher! this so-called HD sucks ass!!

[martinmerrywinkle]

im having a right bastard of a time finding a certain version of this, cos there have been literally hundreds. Its a dance version, one of the fastest, but the chord sequence is the same as this original one, not like half the remixes. Probly only known to UK listeners. Anyone?

[funksoulhouse]

think its lovestation teardrops joey negro remix. hope that helps

[daggaboom]

optimo remix

[fashionjunkiejosh]

i love the cover for this song by The Xx

[missmaniapoto18]

[copali]

[andythief]

Where is the chorus!? The b-part is so short! I gotta re-edit this!

[polyplant]

i've got a mate called Womack,..Footsteps in the parlour room..we live in Rainhill,.merseyside,..

[crackermanification]

yes the blonde i agree,but the guitarist jerod with the white strat,does anyone have any info on him?saw him many times about 20 years ago playing at the marquee and other london venues,i've even a poster taken from the toilets at a pub in walthamstow! his trio played hendrix style rock to a large crowd.

[oggfish]

Lyrics are from Elton John.

[rikstan87]

no its not!!!

[georgethe100]

the blonde girl wow

[millsbomb007]

It's Ellen from the sitcom and chat show!

[marlon926]

my best track ever cool happy days

[wobbly585]

This song was the epitome of cool. The singers had this appearance of detachment while delivering a song of of power,hope and grace. Brilliant stuff thank you.

[Skajye]

Amazing classic! You just gotta love this song. One of my favorite tracks ever!

[Foxazio]

2:25 Mutt Lange Moonlighting some freelance work on the boards? Lol! I highly doubt it. I looked it up and can make no connection with him to this song. Good Look A Like though.......and A Great Song - an 80's Classic.

[zbz112]

I'd like to imagine she still looks as great 21 years on!

[LLsmoothJay]

one of the best songs EVER

[zbz112]

whos the blonde woman in this?

[eloquenternie2]

I don't know I wish I did, Does anyone one know who the blonde singer is.

She is a great singer and even better to look at.

[gorby1952]

I don't know, but with you I got attracted to the Blond in these. I can't say it's black music, but the video suggests some multicultural and politically complete corect view on what we experience at present.

[jdiddyfrmakl]

just a nice mellow laid back song

they really nailed this one

[Leonis23]

schön schön schön

[zbz112]

Magical

[1976rocksteady]

classic

[sarahemilymyers]

Whos the white lady in this?

[tknockerson]

This is jamming!! Thanks for the post.

[topolila]

[Jerryberlin]

Ein echter Ohrwurm!

[griffin44banger]

[NdarkalleysY]

True 80's gem, goesn't get anywhere enough airplay..

[gorby1952]

Ruim 25 jaar terug geilde ik op die blonde in het gezelschap en nu....?

Als 57-jarige vind ik er niks meer aan!

[Mercurye505]

Nee, dat komt omdat misschien omdat je in je mid-life crisis zit? ^^

(Grapje :P)

[giggssixneuf]

i'm crazy about this song, for ever!! thanks

[rharule]

The lead singer in the middle is Sam Cooke's daughter, she married Bobby Womack's younger brother @ 1:18 he's on the left of the split screen.

Rharule

[deejay216]

whats the techno track in the beginning?

[polyplant]

[jonnyking29]
