The Whispers - (Olivia) Lost And Turned Out Official Video

[ANNETTE226]

CLASSIC

[723Damaris]

such a sad song yet they make it sound so beautiful definitely smooth ~

[19Yahudah]

This song is dedicated to all strippers, runaways, prostitutes, and women that try to buy friends and love! Have your own mind and dont worry there are millions of women that get rejected on earth you are not alone. Days go by and it will only get better with positive thinking and love of self.

[allen3983]

we had some good house parties back then,and every one got along.

[TheRussellKennedy]

Every man in the big city from the 70's payed with a weak minded teanager and "turned her out"(pimped her off). Thats what your elders think of....

[tmharr34]

"A Pimps Anthem"....have you lost and turn out....

[BallersCove]

Wow. I didn't know that Lamont Sanford could sing so well!

[OQUENDO1968]

@BallersCove LOL That's hilarious! When I first got a glimpse of the video, for a second I did think it was Demond Wilson of Sanford and Son.

[bodogg59]

that was the song back in the day...

[aflowers1000]

Yo

[darryL804]

hell look how many went the fake route - fake hair,nails contact lens -- fake everything



[BeautyHealthZoneBlog]

@darryL804

So, aren't glasses and hearing aids fake, but to people who need them for seeing they are a godsend. Some people need contact lenses for seeing not fashion.



[vocalstar]

I know I was just making relevant comparison a lot of people dont know them

[butchandjean]

The sexiest black men in show buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzz

[HulkonaBitch]

Camp Lo sampled this song in the smash, THIS IS IT.

[tim23tom23]

@HulkonaBitch Correction...Camp lo didn't sample this in Luchini (This is it) ...they sampled "Adventures In The Land Of Music" by Dynasty

[HulkonaBitch]

@tim23tom23 i stand corrected. but the horns in this song is similar though

[TheTamiChic]

When men looked like MEN!

[PACERGIRL68]

@TheTamiChic And women were glad they did!!!

[vocalstar]

the lead sounds just like Jermaine

[vocalstar]

this whispers song has a Jackson 5 fill as if they used to look at these guys and imulate what do you all think

[cammicty]

@vocalstar Correction, the Jackson % had a Whispers feel! These Cats were doing the dam thang when the Jackson 5 was in diapers!

[SexxxyMickey21]

Thank u I love this song it's my favorite oldie but goodie lol I'm only 21

[SexxxyMickey21]

Omg this my fav oldies song (I'm only 20) I been searching for it for years...never knew they were so ugly nonetheless I love this song

[bgsgagkg]

Yall muthafuckas are stupid they staten facts but in a song they jus singin about real life shit thats still happenin till this day

[krsone92]

I know many "Olivia's" smdh.

[PatsBooks]

Lawd have mercy grown men singing a song with lyrics of substance. They also look like real.

[tawheedization]

wow these are real men now what the hell went wrong to singing this saving young black girls from the street to bitch on the pole im bigtime pimpin and so on and be the fucki gone ignorant ass mcadees chemicla alter mind changing ass gay ass nigg women hatin ass nigga tsk tsk tsk same mf got us on the boat our first slavemaster was our sell out as fake ass bros only thing different today is the technology means henologicsee

[MilkmanDS87]

Soo good for the soul when hear this song it reminds me of all the beautiful young women I have came acrosss and how this song describes them so perfectly...it's amazing how after all these generations our women(black women)are even more lost and turned out then back when this song came out...will we ever be able save our women from this white mans world???they are under the influence even more now look at how many young black women are strippers,porn stars or prostitutes now...

[tummielvr]

@MilkmanDS87 Ppl are lost and turned out regardless of thier race... this generation proves it. So many young ppl who have promise are looking for the easy way out, or unfortunatey get caught up in the wrong crowd

[preciousice908]

@MilkmanDS87 i agree with you

[gazza8734]

@MilkmanDS87 white mans world? you should address your hatred at all the videos the `brothers` turn out and how black women are portrayed in those.idiot!

[BeautyHealthZoneBlog]

@MilkmanDS87

"...they are under the influence even more now look at how many young black women are strippers,porn stars or prostitutes now..."

Yes, I wonder the same thing. A damn shame.

[Gimages123]

@MilkmanDS87 White mans world? The Current American Media is ready to show willing Black men calling Black and poor white women Hoe's and bitches and showing them as cheap accessories. Black men also call call each other the N word whilst they shoot themselves all over the place. In this climate everyone looks like they are lost and turned out and its catching on fast over here in the UK too.

[chuck3812]

Man give me this music anyday of the week. Jay Z who?

[roanej]

True story, about on of there friends daughter

[tedkay]

The Whispers sure put a twist on the little Red Ridding Hood story! LOL I remember this being out around 1978, The Album called Headlights. At that time i was just grooving with the groove and the sweet vocals did not pay much attention to the message! WOW!~anyway! they are coming to Baltimore Md this spring with the Stylistics The Soul Festival Concert at The First Mariner arena! Im out!~

[MegaMzthang]

Dedicated to all the misguided girls in the world!!!!!

[chuckchizzle]

[whitetailhunta]

[dottam711]

I was once lost and turned out. It brings tears to my eyes when I hear it because it reminds me so much of myself...I'm crying now :((

[whitetailhunta]

@dottam711 dont cry baby..you live and learn.

[Kelliekwillis]

@dottam711 The most important point of your comment is that you "were" lost, but now you're redeemed. God Bless

[namronnomolos]

@dottam711 Welcome Back, We Need You.

[YouSoFugly]

The one in the middle is very nice looking.  I think he has passed away, but he was certainly handsome.

[HannahHeartbreake]

My dad put me on this song..., I'm only 25, but I love it! One of the top 25 played in my iPod

[jcblackiston]

This song is a CRY FOR YOUNG GIRLS TODAY! They're looking for love in all the wrong places. They need to FOCUS ON BEING ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. I am a teacher who has seen girls in the 8th and ninth grade falling all over boys for attention.

[busef1]

That wolff in lambs clothing snatched olivia's soul.. two ff's in wolff for two doses of pimpin. This is smoov r&b with hard context.. Love that subtlety.

[MsQuiQui74]

[MyTNATION]

Great song by a great group

[Dobermite]

This song reminds me of back in the day and harmonizing with my friends. We always used to fight about the same thing, who was taking the lead.

It was funny, every song was the same thing ...

"I GOT THE LEAD" - "NO I GOT THE LEAD!!" - "NO I GOT THIS ONE!!"

Good Times :-)

[nc2dc2va]

[tw1704]

As much as I love this song, I need one of yall to type the words of the chorus.

[palmares77]

My Music loving people! Tell me "Olivia" doesn't sound like the state of modern day Hip Hop!

[sassywuk1]

It's all good.

[nikkismith12345]

THIS A HIT

[palmares77]

I am 38 now and was 3 when this dropped. I marvel at how smooth cats in the 70's was. DAMN!

[MrTony1540]

How can anyone not like this song? Not only is it smooth, it has meaning.

[dorothywashington]

Love & miss you Mikell Gates. R.I.P. You & Sade take care of each other girl.

[tedkay]

Man! 1978~~Memories singing about a hooker ~made they sure made it sound so sweet!~

[sherhon33]

Classic

[diop533]

One of the most meaningful and finest songs in the Whispers catalog. So well written and produced. Award worthy.

[tw1704]

Greatness!!! What else can u say?

[sblack812]

I love this song been a favorite of mine since I ever heard it

[Rudie29]

Classic, awesome song. I love it dearly. However, I hate that they play this on the slow jams program. #moodkiller

[lilMzWARREN]

A favorite

[TheBetriece7]

A tune that was always played in my house!!

[bigdogman66]

My boys!

[testing4echo]

What beautiful voices

[RonyMexico]

great song from the alleys of the ghetto

[testing4echo]

@RonyMexico but not limited to the ghetto

[RonyMexico]

@testing4echo agreed

[darold41]

in todays fast paste time people have forgot how to love and help thoughs in desperate need to worried about how they are going to look if they do. True love sometimes sacrifices its for others.

[MsEbonyEyes01]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!

What about Captain save a hoe! When you are in the LIFE ! Stuff is a little different
