I remember, 2001 my 17 year came into my room, and said to me and his dad....this is the song...Mom and Dad...you got to listen to this one...we look at each other and smiled...and said ...I see you got the ear...son.
My fave Isley brothers song....I used to torture myself and listen to this while lying in bed in the dark, whle going through a painful divorce. It's wonderful to listen to it now, and just love it without the devestation to go w it .....Thanks for posting
I remembered as a kid, seeing people blasting music like this as they drove by (keep in mind, it was the mid-late 90s when you still saw wood-paneled station wagons on the road.)
Nowadays, I don't hear any old school blasting. I'm so glad to keep the tradition alive by doing it myself!
@tresonic I guess as a "youngster" when I give my age when confessing my love for a song it is because I want the world to know that I'm not checking for what they play on the radio now and try to pass off as music. Its all love and no disrespect. In some ways I envy those who were around to enjoy this great music when it was first released ;-()
dear people, just because a song is slow and smooth, doesnt mean its a sex song! listen to the lyrics! the last thing hes gonna be doing with his girl is having sex!
I can honestly say I have never heard footsteps in the dark but that would be really something to find someone else in bed with your lady. A women would really have
to be brave to have another man in her bed when her man comes home.
I heard this song today in a book store, and I asked the clerk for the name. This takes me back to the old school days of the mid to late seventies. Great song.
I can't hate on the youth listening to old school cause hell I was listening to this stuff when I was young too thanks to my parnets and other family members actually when I was @jordanpatterson age I bought the best of the isley bros, Al Green, and Teddy P back in 94 its great that they can respect the old school we can't hate just let them grow with it its just music, good music at that.
Driving down the shore, out to Lincoln U or Cheyney. Trips to Pittsburgh, track meets, picnics on the Plateau (all you Philly folks know what I'm talking bout), chillin' down on the drive by the river...This is a snapshot of life, baby...and the Isleys are part of the soundtrack.
lol i had to search it wen i thought i was gunna hear today was a good day in gta 4 and herd this. i was like ooooo so this is the song that was sampled
im 15 an my grandma raised me to this kind of music till i was 10 then i heard rap an i hated it (im black) i loved the oldies an rock music for a long an i still do im 15 imma raise my kids to this music
it's pretty sad how the path of music has turned into what it is now,music now-days doesnt make sense and is depresing, every time i turn a song like this it makes me upset how music is now, only a handful of people appreciate this kind off music now days and im am one of them
@ThePerson1398 THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO APPRECIATE THIS MUSIC. ALL THE EARLY RAP ARTISTS AND SOME OF THE PRESENT ARTISTS SAMPLE THIS CLASSIC SOUL MUSIC. THEY ARE SAMPLING THE RECORD COLLECTIONS OF THEIR PARENTS. UNFORTUNATELY THEY DONT HAVETHE ARTISTRY AND CREATIVITY TO COMPOSE THEIR OWN ORIGINAL MUSIC. THAT IS WHAT IS SAD ABOUT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY TODAY.
@pluggedin2u Honestly, I prefer it when they sample the beats off of these songs, mainly done in the 90's, rap was good then, now they tried to be original. Look at music in general now.
without this good oldschool music most rappers wouldnt have had so manny hit songs lol its funny to me thats they cant be original but i do have to say ice cube killed this beat lol
@CrystalRhae not really...im 15 and i can play stuff like this, i know it from my heart and from my ear, it my kinda music, no rules sayin adults only...i play drums guitar sax and piano and this is my inspirarion. love this song
@jordanpatterson123 It's cool ones like you, Crystal, that may just help to bring back the REAL music that "talks" to us all!! Keep on playing from your heart!!
this is when the songs was really good and always got u in the mood with your lover! baby making music! big music!! i love their music!! they always put out good music!!
man old school music..it makes me feel so good..even though im young i see why our parents and grandparents loves this kind of music..i will have my kids listening to this music lol
