I have to say that I am the biggest ne fan in the world and without a doubt this is the best dancing performance ever for them. I wish I could get a clear copy because they killed it!!!!
my my my! my high school days in nairobi, memories!! Dee, Paulie, cookie, willy, papa: this is kb remembering you all thru this video, ngara rocked then!!!!
This is one of my favorite memories I thought I would never see it again I wish someone had a clear copy New Edition tore the house down. These men just really get me excited when they entertain N.E 4 life
It would be cool if they could do a 20 year reunion next for this song on the Soul Train Awards. Because this was by the baddest performance I have ever seen on the Soul Train Award show.
Damn that was tight, I never saw this one, New Edition put on a show, the stepping and choreograhpy was raw, and that made it look easy! I wonder why they never released that remix?
Thank u for posting this. I was at this very show...The Soul Train Awards '89. I was 13yrs old and my mom took me and my best friend. I was such a die hard N.E. fan. This brings back great memories!
oh yeah i remember this performance i watched it that nite on the Soul train awards..and yeah bobby and whitney would have been talkin by that time...
well the quality is poor cause the footage is from like 20 years ago and technology wasn't the best then lol i still enjoyed it tho...thanks for posting kangk!
If anywun has New Edition's album "Gold" this is the version of "Crucial" that's on there, which is also known as the single mix, but without the long instrumental, tight performace tho, love N.E.
I still have this on tape! 1989 Soul Train Awards. This is also the same year and place where Bobby met Whitney. Also, this is the same night Whitney got booed for "sounding too white!"
I really was just commenting on how primitive my conditions were in college back in 89. Although the first showing of The Soul Train Awards back in those days were on WGN, Chicago's superstation. The reruns of that show were on the local Soul Train affiliates.
jimmy jam & terry lewis and that bass line! GOOD GAWD!!!! that shit is still bad!
