Thats right the 80's were the good ol days. Less corruption, No economy crises like today, unemployment rate was low, no worries on terror, no wars and cost of living was low. 80's were the good ol days. Now today even if you have a job and got paid its still fuckin expensive to go out to a club. In those days clubs use to be cheaper and you were able to have a good time to get out of trouble. Now today you can't even have a great time to relax and enjoy yourself anymore in this society.
I guess a shower after a long days work wasn't neccessary before he changed into some clean clothes huh? LOL! Just kidding. Everybody knows this song is crazy nice! One of Teddy Riley's best compositions baby but Johnny Kemp that hair style aint hittin it!
Heard this song the other day on the old school radio station...I swear i thought this was an Nsync song, because i remember them performing the song on the Billboard Music Awards in 2000. Anyways, i like this version better. This song came out the same year i was born. lol
This right here was the joint back in the day! And, before the time a brotha started going to the clubs, this song had a me and the sibs turning the living room into a dance floor while the parents stepped out to the store or wherever. Used to jam to this song, and hearing this takes me back to those days:)
I remember when I was 7 years old my mama would blast this while makin her strawberry daiquiri's. I was wishing I was grown in '88. Now I'm grown songs ain't made like this...I miss the'80's!!!
I love love love this song but wth were they thinking with that ''choreography"... Michael (r.i.p) really changed the way choreography looked in music videos
I love this damn song.This is a old song but it go hard.I think that everybody should play this song on payday.I tried to find this song in the song but could not find it.If i could find this song i would play it every FRIDAY ON PAYDAY.I LOVE THE BEAT OF THIS SONG.Love,Love,Love the hell out of this song!!!!
@lkaa2 TELL ME BOUT IT.LAST TIME I HAD A BALL IN A CLUB I WAS IN ALBANY WITH MY SIS.WE WENT TO AN AFTERPARTY .MIND YOU EVERYBODY IN THE JOINT WAS DRESSED TO THE T...MAN THAT DAMN DJ THREW ON MUSIC FROM THE EARLY 80 TO THE CURRENT..HE HAD OUR ASSES SOAKED.NOTHING LIKE SOME THROWBACKS
I was 12 when this song came out but now that I am a grown woman with a job...I truly know why Friday's are so great!! Just got paid..Love this joint!!
Damn good song, met JK once in Amsterdam at Bebop. Great performance, and yes. under workingtime for me and I did get paid while I met JK, actually quit funny to remember.
OMG I LOVE the 3 girls and their set at 3:38 and 3:55, the girl in the middle is sooooo smooth! She's so smooth that it doesn't look like she's even putting anything into it! Can't wait to use these moves at the next 80's party!
All these people think they're so cool.. funny thing is, none of them have cel phones. Most plans for this epic 'Friday night', will most likely be in disarray at the end of it all.. Just sayin'.
Was Jamin in my 90s vibe the realized how did Johnny Kemp got a Vevo tho #Igotquestions yeah and was it seriously a shock to people back then when he came out the closet. Maybe b/c we grow up in a different time we can sometimes easily figure it out hmmm
Okay, so I guess I'm the only one who thinks that even though thew guy has a nice voice for the song; he's definitely got a face made for radio. They really should have avoided close-ups for this video.
love the look of the girl with de black dress, black stockins and boots! seems it was a hot look for 87- 88!.... also worn in the video " the way yo make me feel" by Michael Jackson! is it too retro for the present?
That is funny looking dude but i love this song!! Did any notice in the first club scene that the dude on the right grab that girl arm and she snatched away from here and he was looking like "bring yo ass back here"!!! LMAO!!
the choreography is horrible. Michael Jackson need to show them what's up lol
