I grew up in this part of history. I still remember how to dance like this... But the body can't translate what the brain is saying. I may have had a few fast food's a few times over the years.
OMG all of them was shining, in good shape, good dancers there is not comparison with today's unshape it individuals! Mr. Cornelious Rest in Peace, you was great!
They all looking good. This had to be before fast food hit the beat. RIP DON. Your part in history was a beautiful gig that will never be forgotten. You touched us all.
wtf. all of these women are fine. all different shades, and shapes. a lot of women now look like they came out the same mole. wear and a tight pair of jeans. bring back real black women.
wow this what you call real music real dancers closest thing we have is house music real house music producers that know how to sample these true artist like ojays / gq/ heatwave not those pop artist these days being a dj / producer love this era.....
Watching these videos of Soul Train make me want to cry. They look like they're having a ball! If I could only take a step back during this time, I would take advantage of it. Watching these vids are my time machine. Being 18 years of age at this time sucks. Can't hear a song without sex or degrading a female being involved. As the O'Jays say, "I love music, just as long as it's groovin'!"
This was tha Jaaaaaaaammmm!! and the place to be to see the hottest artist, hear the lastest jams, clothes, hairstyles, shoes, and dances.......Yes'Zir !! My dance at 2:08 Get it girl !! Look at Jodi Watley and Jeffrey Daniels at 2:43, before they became "Shalamar" Ouuuuu I miss these days.
WTF? All these dudes from the 70s were all lean, fit and beautiful! What the hell happened all these years that most youngsters look overweight or simply obese today?
@antejutronic Negros today are lazy playing video games sittin on their fat asses. Maybe if they took a hint from the gays they could go to the gym. And ya'll dumb ass bitches need to get some common sense and stop trying to get pregnant from these broke bastards so you can collect some $400 child support and get a job of your own then maybe your black ass would be skinny also.
@MaxMikeLatino Aren't you ashamed of speaking like a KKK-WASP? Or you're conveniently forgetting that latinos (you call yourself maxmikelatino) suffer the same overweight, unemployment and unwanted pregnancy problems that plague Black people in the country?
STFU, as far as we know your ignorant, uneducated ass probably turn tricks for a living and get gang bang in the fucking ass, in a dirty alley like a $5 whore in East LA somewhere. I hope imbeciles like you catch a damn disease in your mouth for saying moronic shit.
@antejutronic You are aware that Soul Train handpicked the dancers that appeared on the shows? They weren't going to let the "obese" people on tv. Having been around back in the day I can tell you, there are the same amount of thin and heavy people now as back then.
back in the 70's most kids didnt have cars, they had bikes... and if u grew up in the south and rual areas as many did, there were no buses. it was nothing for you to ride your bike 5-10 miles to the store or to a friends house and make it back before dark. lol
haha my mom was a senior in high school when this song came out and she still jams to it! lmao! ...and she made me love it too. yay for the o'jays and soul train! : )
FLASHBACK!!!! Suddenly, I am back in my parent's living room watching Soul Train on Saturday morning after American Bandstand and cartoons. Ignoring my parents yelling at me to turn the TV off and go play outside!!
@jdanoz1 Yer right on the money!! haha, thats exactly what I used to do. too funny . I would always try to copy the the dance moves, of course they would come out as dance abortions haha but man I enjoyed Soul Trrain! thanks for sharing ;-)
Fab song, fab moves, fab clothes. I was a funkateer (still am) back in the 70's. I remember a lot of the lads here in the UK doing some of these moves. Happy times-wish I has a time machine!
@BlacksAreBeautiful They had the same kind of filthy food, probably worse but it didn't have all the chemicals that today's food has. Less preservatives, wasn't made in a lab, etc.
@ladyvee7110 that's what I meant, although I would differ with you..if that food had less preservatives, HFCS and other toxins, then It def wasn't worse. :)
@Alikah1 ...Lol...what the heck are you talking about? Yeah...you must be high for real. That's ok, I know all the food talk and weed is giving you the munchies. :-D
@MsJollycholly That is such an interesting comment - so true - the dancing was constant, steady movement with the whole entire body in motion smoothly and all at once. You were kinda moving toward the next move at every instant....always forward onto the next move; always a "forward-on" sort of thing. And, you're so right - all that DANCING AROUND kept a LOT of everybody trim. Hey, even the stocky folks were in SHAPE, man!....it didn't matter how you looked, folks were PHYSICALLY FIT!!
@MsJollycholly Many of us kids at the time consumed lots of sugar with our cereals and kool aid. I remember many kids would walk home from school or play running games like tag outside. Your right, you never heard of public service commerials on diabetes, hypertension, or obesity back then.
This song always makes me smile . I'm so thankful that I grew up in that era. It was a simpler, carefree time. I used to watch Soul Train and practice the dance moves in my room!! The guy and girl in 2:17 make a beautiful dance couple.
