  • Lol! I'm searchin and I hope I find one that looks like the girl on your artwork.

  • Too bad! I was'nt really into clubbin like that back then. But the song bring me back to an era when I was enjoyin being a teenager. I used to hear this playing on the Newak NJ street boom boxes. Playing basketball with my friends in the parks. Anyway! listen to it at 05:40. That instrument sets this version vof this song on fire.

  • I remember this jam back when I was 15...and I used to skate to this joint. Now if they played this jam at the rink where I skate they would have to throw me out because I would break every rule in the book.

  • Maaaannn!!! This song, this particular version! The club version! was the shiiiiiieeett!! Back in the day! I started lisftening to it and I'm hooked. Thanks for posting and putting me on this time machine back to the 80s.

  • 5 people fell off there roller skates to this!

    80's FEVER!!!!!!!!!

  • Grew up in Newark in the 60/70's.remember going to Coney Island, by the mini-roller coaster ride where the DJ played all the slammin' music, people out there dancin', but when they played this song, everyone stepped back and watched those Puerto Rican couple get out and dance........those moves they had would beat anything and anybody on "Dancin' ithe the Stars" .

  • @makog312 - Tribeca and Roseland! Classic baby. If this came on and you didn't get up you were either too baked or paralyzed.

  • I remember going to twin city roller rink in Elizabeth and hearing this . People used to catch reck when this came on.

  • @jabez623 I remember dancing at the ZANZIBAR!!! NEWARK

  • @deekyte , the Zanzibar was one bangin' ass club. I danced myself sober in that joint. Those were the days.

  • ;)

  • Pure Classic.

  • This cut and Lovin' Is Really My Game by Brainstorm were your "in trouble records"; you put them on when your party was in trouble. This cut still jams. Who remembers Tribeca's?

  • SIghs....! Great Music Era!!!

  • I thought is was Change too

    

  • Oh ...SNAP!!! I remember hearin' this on the dance floor and the radio and thinkin' it was the group Change cause it sounds like them. But yet - I could never find it. LOL Thanks for posting this.

  • Hey folks, they need to reproduce this songs like many other music of the 1980's so the younger generation can listen and sing this it. They'de have fun and make money off of it. The younger generation listeners woudn't know where it came from. They'de have to do their homework as if they were in high school.

  • The first time I heard this joint I was in the Navy stationed in Jacksonville, Fla. and my friend Carlos would always get tapes sent to him from home (Corona, Queens NY) and this song was on one of them. I know many of you remember those 98.7 Kiss Master Mixes. That was one of the funkiest mixes I had ever heard and I kept that tape until it got destroyed in 2002. I'll be a House Head when I'm 90. LOL

  • Anybody remember the club Justines Lavitacas in NYC.....Great music like this I'm so lucky to be a part of this era.......I'm dancing right now ...LOL

  • This song accompanied my adolescent longing, but the beat was so cheerful that it made the loneliness bearable. Fortunately, ultimately, I did find the one, but had no assurance of that back then. Heard it this eve on WBLS 107.5 FM during a cold-spring, late-sunny walk.

  • AWWW SH*^#!!

    MUSIC!!!!

  • This brings back memories! I remember when they performed at our High School! They were hot back then. It was the hype around the school when they made this song. We used to love to walk by the house they were rehearsing in to hear them jammin. I knew them and went to school with them. Wish they could do something now!

  • This joint use to jam!!

  • @2009Denisem That's right man, music don't exist like this no more. I remember when Paco at WKTU played this joint, I would dance my ass off in my room. My grandmother busted me dancing and she was like you dance pretty good. This jam was and still is off the hook. Thanks for sharing. Leo "The Lion" .

  • @hoopsnhiphop Man Oh Man...!!! Those were the days my friend... Peace N Respect..!!

    Still Searchin' LOL.....

  • @2009Denisem ...U get into a TRANCE......I was in BedStuy when this dropped,

  • @Superdondisco AAA-MEN My friend... Brooklyn in da house..!!!! Peace....

  • @2009Denisem I was looking at the interview of Jacyee Lee Dugard. It just came to my mind "Searching to Find the One." Her abducter is a musical genius. He writes, produces, and plays his own music. He is a bit bizzare but he is gifted. I listened to him and he sounds talented. Too bad his mental illness and demons won't allow him to release his creative abilities to the world. That is the price you pay for a musical genius.

  • No Fantasies

  • I LOVE THIS SONG !!!!

  • Before hotlanta before the south before california knows how to party N-Y-C was the place that knows how to party you had to be there. Sorry young bucs we did more than just bop our heads whaaaaaaaaaat! put this song this beat banging on the floor the base took over just like hip hop NY passed the torched elsewhere.

  • The Garage NYC

  • @butchiesboy67 THE WORLD FAMOUS PARADISE GARAGE, YOU BETTER RECOGNIZE!!

  • @butchiesboy67 THE WORLD FAMOUS PARADISE GARAGE, YOU BETTER RECOGNIZE!! ONLY THE BEST COMES OUT OF THE NYC!!

  • this still bangin' in the clubs,,

  • WOW dig that awesome guitar solo at the end. You don't hear that anymore from the new pre-programed music the kids are coming up with these days. (Sigh) my people perish for lack of knowledge.

  • Yup........i use to go to the Funhouse in NYC every Saturday........those days in the late 70's and early 80's were the best days of my life. I miss all the girls from back then.

  • wow, this was way back when we could leave a disco at 8 am to go search for breakfast in the blinding sunlight, that was the best times. This song being played with the strobe lights on was an experience I will never forget. Too bad my kids haven't experienced clubs like that. The Funhouse was awesome. I miss this song played by WBLS in Prospect park Brooklyn summer time. Summer block parties played this song, everyone jumped up!

  • @gypsydancer64 Aint that the truth FELLOW NEW YORKER.. i tell my kid the same thing ..2days youth have soo much more material items yet the exp.. the movement of the BIG APPLE... ahh where do i began... 107.5wbls,92wktu....rollerskat­ing,block partys the FUNHOUSE OMG... & yes you are so correct..this classic joint & many others from that era got folks n2 a frenzy.

    We partied 4 the the music... everyone jumped up! aint that the truth!

  • Here you have a tasty gumbo of Minimoog bass and leads coupled with 70s era Arp Strings that were rarely heard by this time-but sounded great.

  • @hardcorehouse What a classic floor filler!

  • In Detroit thinking about renting a hall and throwing a dayz of wayback jam with old school classics like this with some zapp/roger, tom browne,whodini,heatwave,ojays,­tempts,cameo,etc,etc......you get the point.....think it would go over well?
