  • If you don't at least bob your head to this song, it's safe to assume you have no soul.

  • great performer, great song, please come back to this grey music scene.Even J.S.cant cope.

  • "The old man eating toaster"

  • Sam Cooke and Jackie Wilson, two of the best!

  • @brownindian17 Two of my faves also! I click on them both often. If I can ever get my Ipod figured out they'll be at the top of my list!

  • What a talent. lost too soon. I remember this song while i was serving with the 2nd Infantry Div. in Korea, 1968-69

  • so under rated!

  • JB, MJ........They took notes from a true great performer.

  • I love it when people use the spelling "grammer" when talking about grammar online. It tickles me.

  • @8misterpilgrim8 not to mention his obvious misuse of your in place of you're. If he did go to "grammer" school, they must have cared more about his cheque clearing than their academic standards.

  • Great song!

  • Classic.

  • classic tune from a time when people wrote music, wrote their own lyrics, played musical instruments. Now we're in a time of cover version after cover version and lip snching or glorified karaoke singers on the telly. For once its true, they really DID do it better years ago.

  • @1969JohnnyM shush with your close minded comments. even if you wanted new music thats similar to this it exists. raphael saadiq makes new music and kills it. if your going to try and talk shit on my generations music you will get your ass handed to you. i know all bitch!

  • @lorimerj try growing up you idiot.

  • @1969JohnnyM your the one whos like 50 complaining on youtube about music. how about you grow up and stop complaining, dumbass.

  • @lorimerj - and your like about 12 with a mental age the same as my shoe size, also learn how to write properly you ignorant DUMB ASS !

  • @1969JohnnyM naw im 20. this is the internet no one cares how you type. your just getting frustrated now. its tight.

  • @lorimerj - yeah i'm really frustrated, i'm frustrated when people cant write properly and think by showing how uneducated they are that makes them cool. What the fuck is, "its tight" mean ? I suggest you go to evening classes and do some english language classes.

  • @1969JohnnyM god damn your dumber than i thought. dude im not trying to be cool by not caring about my grammer online this isnt the god damn SAT, and you fucked up a sentence. "what the fuck is, "its tight" mean ?" first off, how the hell dont you know what that means. second you put the word "is" where "does" should be. SO what have you learned here? 1. your a complete idiot, 2.you hate kids opinons, and 3. your a total and complete idiot.

  • @lorimerj and (4) you've got a problem with older people and (5) i've got better things to do. Also dumbass if you read the sentence again the way the word "is" is used insinuates a question whilst " does" would mean more a statement of fact. Some of us in this world actually passed exams etc. Bye bye ass hole.

  • @1969JohnnyM naw, most of my friends are older than me. and hey! look what ya did. you did the thing ive been doing, and youve been bitching at me for. grammer. "dumb ass" is 2 words technically but you did it as 1 funny how this game works huh?. i may not have been honor roll in highschool, but at least now im not sitting behind a computer at work hating my life and wishing i was cool. i partake in the best things in this world. skateboarding, cameras, and weed.

  • @lorimerj ah well at least you've got some style as i too like weed although i hav'nt skateboarded in a while but i used too, i'm now into bikes. You can go further in a shorter period of time and who does'nt love speed. Anyway life's too short to squabble, have a good life and be happy. Slainte mhaith !

  • @lorimerj oh and not being a spazz but i went a lot further than highschool as you call it, i take it your from the USA, i went to a grammer school. Happy skateboarding !

  • @1969JohnnyM oh and just so you know, i would almost bet money on it that in highschool i got better grades on my papers than you ever did.

  • @1969JohnnyM Wait, you know that Jackie Wilson didn't write the music or the lyrics to "Higher & Higher", didn't play any of the instruments, and the 1960s music scene had a much higher rate of cover songs and ALL televised music was lip-synched on variety and late-night shows. So I'm not really sure what you're saying, but nothing you said there is true in the slightest for the point you're trying to make.

  • @theskull42 Actually that might be the way in certain countries but others like say Europe until more recent years would'nt let it on tv unless it was live, also the music scene then had LESS cover versions.

  • @theskull42 of course there were songs written by other people but they were then performed for the 1st time, now we have covers of covers passed off as their own material, oh and Jackie Wilson played piano + guitar although he's known primarily as a singer.

  • Not Jackie Wilson !!

  • this aint no damn jackie

  • jumping toasters :)

  • you guys no jack shit bout music coz this ISN'T JACKIE WILSON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    BUT... lol- you can't fool me... so cool, have a nice day... Marcie :))) Thanks for the SUB, the

    real HOME of JW ~~ Have a Nice Day!!!! Pass by to say hello*

  • It's something weird, but also very nice, that only with sound I cant feel his enthusiasm and even imagine his smile ;)

  • Yup, I too found this song because of Ghostbusters 2 Lmfao. I was a kid when it came out and when this played in the movie I instantly fell in love with it. I'm 37 and my parents brought me up on excellent music. That's why I'm one of the only white guys who sings soul music like Jackie and Bill Withers (another amazing performer). Thanks dad and mom I love ya.

  • What recording is this? It's not the version I'm used to....

  • This is the happiest song! This is almost a gospel song! I love Jackie Wilson.

  • ghost buster.....<3

  • higher 'n higher 'n higher 'n higher

  • 8 people are from mars

  • The Great Jackie Wilson....No Other Like Him....

  • Was making breakfast the other day and heard this song playing from my kitchen. Ran to the kitchen and saw my toaster jammin!!!

  • He was great! Elvis loved this man's work. Watch Elvis moves.... he owes something to this exciting entertainer-artist. Mr. Jackie Wilson!

  • lol - This isn't even Jackie Wilson

  • @Fonz89uk Your very right.. I wouldnt have listened to this had I known that someone was playing a dirty game 4 clix.

  • I never get tired of hearing"Mr.Excitement"doing this tune.Thanks for posting it!

  • 0:46 Balls in a vice :D

    

  • No one could sing and dance like Jackie and watching him dance to this song proves it. He was the best, better than everyone even Sammy Davis Jr.

  • Too too awesome for words. One of the great soul songs ever recorded.

  • Oldies like this never die....

  • oh my goodness this song is heavenly

  • I dare you to dislike this

  • Lol I liked this song 3 seconds in. :)

  • Thumbs up if Necro's favorites brought you here!

  • @Coolnessxhot2 No way, same here ghostbusters 2 sent me here too, sweet.

  • can't stop dancing...love it!

  • Don't play this around the Statue of Liberty. It might start walking....

  • @Brooklynmario

    You need slime for that!

  • @IRideThePaleHorse lol - one of my FAVE movies !!

  • @IRideThePaleHorse

    Hey, she might have some under that dress. "She IS French."

  • @IRideThePaleHorse bravo :)

  • @Brooklynmario I'm always careful around toasters personally

  • @Brooklynmario hahaha !!!

  • @Brooklynmario tell me that's a reference to Sprite SMash.

  • @Brooklynmario Haha ! : ), you're of course RIGHT !, except for the fact that, if the old gal in NY harbor heard just a few bars of THIS gem, she'd probably initially start out with a few moments of toe tapping, after which she'd immediately commence totally full out break-dancing her fine French derriere off ! : ) 

  • @B'mario So in other words, friend, "she might start walking" is probably significantly something a major understatement, IMO : )

    Long live the memory & all the fabulous recorded tunes, of the great Jackie !, who was taken all too soon from us, at just 49, in 1984, after haing suffered a massive heart attack on stage, 10 years earlier, while performing in Dick Clark's traveling show: I understand he never fully physically recovered after that.

    R.I.P. but still ROCK ON brother Jackie. : )

  • @Brooklynmario lmao yo ass crazy hahaha

  • @Brooklynmario Or a toaster...

    

  • I hate to say it Jackie but I've no idea what you're talking about.

  • lol
