LMAO...The Martin Show, the episode when Snoop Dogg was on there.

[Mssassysabrina]

I often curse technology today because I am so stubborn. Don't like change. Don't want it. Longing for the old days. But damn, if it wasn't for YOUTUBE, I'd probably go years, even decades without seeing or hearing some of these videos and songs. Thank you YOUTUBE.

[riversidbuses]

This bloke was actuly from South London. And I have 2 of he's LP's, where there any more?

[BloodyCatastrophee]

@lyricmusicproduction HEEEEEELLLLLLL YEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! haha

[EastSydeHoods]

Black people!!!!! GOOD Music!!!! I love my culture I love it. This music makes you feel so good man. I swear it will be alot less negativity in the world if more music like this was seen. Too much negative music that perpetuates self promotion. Everyones head is up they're ass. Bring this music back!!

[kennycay]

[brownmachine6969]

the 80's had the best music ever!!!!

but the 80's also had the worst crime ever....

1. drive by's

2. home insvasions

3.graffity.

4.car jackings...

[Jraptor101]

@brownmachine6969

That happens now too. Some of them are even worse.

[onlinesavant]

@brownmachine6969 Depending on where you grew up I guess. The worst thing that we had to worry about was getting pregnant, or getting someone pregnant.

[brownmachine6969]

@onlinesavant hahahahaha thats funny... i grew up in Los Angeles CA. and people would do purse snatchings home invassions car jackings just for fun. also the gangs were going at it doing their drive bys, hitting inocent people all the time... i think it all changed sometime after the rodney king trial ...

[carrasquillo34]

this song makes me cry cuz it brings me back to the old days

[jlv3x]

This is my FAVORITE song of all time great dance music with a very true statement they can learn from music like this today.Everytime I hear this it takes me back to being 13

[SDSOverfiend]

This shit was always hard. He killed this record.

[ShAySlIm130]

wow i did not this dude was a jamaican from london

[BedStuyBro]

@ShAySlIm130

Interesting! I was a kid in Jamaica when this was released. I remember telling my friend next door that it was the best song ever. It always brings that memory back.

[stewwalk]

Very good video. Pops told me enjoy your youth, when you go to college enjoy staying up all night and eating pizza. I worked only part time during college for my own little money. He told me youll have the rest of your life to work. The next time you blink youll be 30, blink again and youre 40. Im now 31 and he wasnt lying.

[StoogeWatcher]

Isn't this Richard Blackwood's uncle?

[thabmb40]

[GeneralTrousers]

The influence of Michael Jackson on many songs between 1979 and 1982 in very strong ...

x

[stellaviolens]

Anyone who liked the funk loved this in the early 80's .

Great song from Junior.

[just4the5ofus]

[ethangsmith]

Wow, these guys are good! Reminds me a little of Kool and the Gang.

[luke1751988]

The video is very good.

[atrahan29]

Junior, one of the pioneers of British R&B, and this still a dance floor classic.

[nest1572]

[5Gregallz5]

junior giscombe went to my dad's school and this chorus is used in cam'ron - me, my moms and jimmy

[IProphetI]

fuck camron

[PAC0MERLA]

@IProphetI

why????????????

[wmaddan]

Good catch - yes, Teddy Riley definately "borrowed" the bassline progression for "is it good to you". Old school bass riffs are diamonds.

[malekfunky]

Whoou!!

[Kinghercules]

LOL! I recall my mom playin this song when I was a kid!

[meneitherp]

from which album this song comes i want it but i cant find:(

[youveiw72]

I think the album is called "Ji" . My older sister had this album when I was growing up. This album also featured the jam " Too Late".

Great , The 80's :-)

[mssquirrely]

WAT UP OLD SCHOOLAS,

WE IN THA HOUUUUSE!!!!!!!

2:59 That Was My Part!

FANTASTIC POST!

[Plieswoman08]

[svikiro]

Teddy Riley borrowed the bassline from song when he did "Heavy D & The Boyz - Is It Good To You"

This is one helluva of a jam, Classic.

[funderburkeb74]

[MastaShayke]

[dimondintheruf]

[LGKids]

This a classic of all classics! This is like Tony, Tone, Toni's "Born Not to Know"! Thanks for posting and video is what video's don't bring you nowadays! Even though they cost a zillion dollars to make, they forget the storyline and the class! Peace to all real music lovers and maybe one day real music will return to the top of the charts and our hearts!

[MarcelHall21]
