Let me tell you that when this came on at all the sets(parties) in St. Louis, Mo. in the early 80's, if you were still sitting down people would think something was wrong with you. This was the jam!!!
Absolut Phantastisch - Pioniere ihrer Zeit und musikalische Wegbereiter für Stile aller Richtung und Rassen. Dieses Lied hat schon damals stilistisch aus dem Monster-Album herausgestanden. Ich liebe es sehr.
@Im4allguns lol no, youre wrong... I love both rap and funk, and they are very different to compare, rap has real lyrics, while funk is fun to listen to... Rap means more than just "Talking over a beat" any toddler would know that too...
yo i am an old school breaker and this song wld come on and nobody could see me....it turned me into a strait up beast...we had a group called the Future Five Reppin camden New Jersey...holla if ya'll peep this...peace
In a show down of music of the past (this music) and now, the now would be bowing down. This is the baddest stuff ever made. If artist would wake up and get back to this they could sell millions.
I first heard this track on a documentary shown on late night UK TV about breakdancers in NYC, years back.One of the other tracks I remember from the doco was Jazzy Sensation by Afrika Bambaataa & The Jazzy 5.Anyone recall this documentary and what it was called? I never saw it again.
@FpsGamer43 yea, you watched it too..you cant relate because you have no soul or rythm, this is like russian language to you... out of you realm of comprehenson so you knock it..
Could you, or could anyone else here, shoot me the lyrics to that last 10 seconds (the part after the lower... higher... bit near the end)? I've been trying to figure them out since I first heard this jam in Giessen, Germany in 1982. Thanks!
@FpsGamer43 Thanks for writing. On this version here on Youtube, yes that's what he says.
But on the longer version (which is the one that is found on the Message LP; it has another ten seconds or so at the end), he says a bit more. Back when the song came out I was told that it goes "... Lower Higher Lower Higher Aaah All of us are jamming, Scorpio" (and then the song ends), but it doesn't quite sound like that to me. I just don't have a better suggestion as to what he's saying. Help...
yo gamer, let me get this straight: you uploaded one version of scorpio that had some scratching that people complained about so you uploaded a copy without scratching? Good, glad we got that worked out. By the way, you are going to heaven.
This was the # 1 Jam at my old high school dances! '81-82? Man,if you still sitting down when this came on everyone thought something was wrong with you.
does anyone know the track by these guys which has the line: "scorpio and a gemini if u wanna battle just give us a try...." trying to find it but dont know the title. thanks.
So true. I'm a White guy and I loved this when it came out in the early '80's. They make most of the hip hop artists of today look like rank amateurs.
don't listen to them, the scratching is really abstract and i like it. people are complaining about musical monotony, then they find something different or interesting they are so quit to hate on it.
boy this brings back memories, jr high dances. i whooped much ass off of this song in poppin contest....i like to say thanks on behalf of all of us o.g. triple o.g.'s...
I'm glad you reloaded this and you need to take that other piece of SHIT remix, with the worst scratching in history off of You Yube. Thanks again for putting this CLASSIC up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome. I was in either 5th or 6th grade blasting this on a Sanyo shortwave/cassette boombox in nineteen eighty-TWO! Still sounds good 'almost' 30 years later. Thx for posting. Enjoy it before youtube mutes it again.
i know youtube already muted it but i filed a complaint and they un muted it and if this one still gets muted i have another back up one on my channel that is a tiny bit slower so that the computer that detects it gets fooled
Hahah!That's whats up!!Yeah I got tired of em muting some trax I upload.Hope they don't mute it.I don't even get why they mute it.GMF and the F5 i'm sure don't mind us reliving those days.
