[crazy4corbinbleux]

Seriously. Songs like this and all of the amazing songs from Motown make me wish I wasn't born in the decade I was born in. Can I quickly rewind back to the 80s when you would turn up the radio and here songs like THIS playing?

[crazy4corbinbleux]

I will always remember my past and growing up. Thank you all that made my memories

[geomendo]

I saw Charlie Wilson last night in Concord,CA great show!!!

[buffet62]

@geomendo WTF?!?!?! You lying ass bitch of a human turd. Have some respect for the dead. How in the fucking Nixon-hairdo can you say that Charlie is alive when he has been deceased for a while? Man, there is no limit to the low-life scumbags that will crawl out of Montezuma's skull. I'm from Concord, CA and there was never a Gap Band show since I moved out here, and I've moved out here 15 years ago. I am a fanatical Gap Band follower. Hey, go buy a dildo and compare it to your .5 centimeter.

[fooloof]

@buffet62: umm. Charlie is alive; Robert is deceased...

[ReyLoo]

@buffet62 - u must have bad info source...Charlie Wilson is alive and kicking!!! Enjoy the FUNK people!!!

[PauletteBoston]

@ricmarfink no it does not!

[PauletteBoston]

@ricmarfink  NO it doesn't Rick..however..I do LOVE Earth Wind and Fire....the best!!

[PavelZajec]

@PauletteBoston Definitely not disco-first heard this 30 years ago or so and knew it then!

[XXXXLOWRIDERXXXX]

THE SAD PART IS TODAYS ARTISTS MAKING MILLIONS ON FUCKING GARBAGE MUSIC...THE ARTISTS OF THE 80S WERE RIPPED OFF...MATTER OF FACT..I WOULDNT PAY TODAYS SINGERS MIN. WAGE...LOL..THEY ALL SUCK...WOW..DID CHARLIE WILSON REALLY GO POOR ..WOW

[Sagget21]

@XXXXLOWRIDERXXXX

Charlie Wilson isn't poor, is he? Anyways, I like music from The Gap Band and other 80s bands, but I also like some of today's music. Not all of today's music is good, but some of it is in my opinion. Music is music. Its purpose, focus, and singers change (that's why music within the past 50 years or so is usually divided into decade).

[39speedy]

yo im 41 and danced to this track when it first dropped, i still remember that dance!

[justaman6972]

fonky

[egmjag]

First time I heard was at a talent show that a girl danced to. Never heard this kind of music before. Didn't know what kind of genre it was. Disco was slowly fading but was still popular. But this...not even close to disco. I thought it was rock and I guess that's what funk really is.

[DeeJayRoyalT]

All the hits these guys had...and yet Charlie Wilson actually ended up living underneath a bridge for awhile? He said so himself. That's such bullshit and proof how the recording industry just uses these artists and don't give a shit about them. It always has been like that and probably always will be...unfortunately.

[MrHashiesnthemoenin]

@DeeJayRoyalT Not that i approve of illegal downloading of music or take issue with anyone else doing it, but this is the karma coming back on record companies for ripping artists off for so long. Now artists make all their cash out of touring and some go into making their own clothes/fragrances etc. Record companies are all vampires who have taken advantage of people like Charlie Wilson and the Gap band for too long...

[romeroenrique]

@DeeJayRoyalT 100, 300, 500, 1million years from now... Charlie and his bad ass bros will still be superior to all the new artist! :)

[frostee12382]

@DeeJayRoyalT KILL THE INDUSTRY

[bigblackbadbrother]

@DeeJayRoyalT ....or that some of these artists don't understand the value of money and piss it up the wall even though the revenue stream has stopped?

[ChakkerHabib]

Pa why u turn on me

[keymusic100]

this 1 makes you run top speed to the dance floor.

[HOOSIERS35]

These guys never got their due. They "created" some of the BEST FUNK ever. Period.

[chandlerssite]

Best jam...better than some of this sampled stuff you hear now. :)

[2Dafunk]

How many of you remember this awesome track. simply awesome.

[HOOSIERS35]

The beat to this used to rev me up before high school football games. I was in overdrive come game time. I would look for people to run over whether they had the ball or not.

[1areyouserious]

The Gap Band's music is a great vehicle to celebrate LIFE. Everytime I hear their music I just want to drop what I'm doing and just frickin GROOVE. They always changed bad days into great days.

[2009Denisem]

[funkateerkitty]

@2009Denisem Just because you're not for real Why you hurt me, girl You took my money, you took my time You made me think everything was fine Like the clock on the wall said ding-ding-dong Got to find another lover that won't be gone She won't put the medal to the metal And burn rubber, burn rubber on me, Charlie No, no, no, no Never, ever had a lover Who put the peddle to the metal And burn rubber on me, Charlie No, no, no, no, no, no Thank U sis for all of this... :)
