  • My favorite group of "ALL" time. These are truly the Kings of Balladeers!!! No others can compare. The Delfonics are truly an icon for the history of Love Songs!

  • Back in the day our souls respected "Love" it was the determining factor, it was

    being treated like a lady. The guys look good, dressed good, took pride in their

    appearance, they were gentlemen....I am so happy that I was born during that

    time and enjoyed the experiences of love.....even if my heart was broken..I lived

    on afterwards.....Love came through my window and right out the door...

  • CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF A MAN WITH THE NAME  PAT PALMER WAS EVER WITH THIS GROUP? THANKS

  • @ELVISRN1 I don't think so, this group consisted of William and Wilbert Hart, Richie Daniels and Randy Cain later Cain was replaced by Major Harris......ya dig......peace

  • man this is real music. if you were a young adult or teenager during this time you were blessed. when you hear the music from the early 70's, you stop and it takes youback to the best moment of your life, that special someone in the basement at the party you will never forget.They don't make music like this any more.

  • I love those high-waters. In 10 years, they will be back in-style.

  • @fnkdrmmr LOL!!!!

  • give me 3 and a half mins of REAL MUSIC instead of 5 mins of no meaning at all hip hop mess any day!! This is the sound I grew up with, learning to slow dance for real which the young have no clue how to do, learning the meaning of someone really loves you, dedications, oooo wee the memories!

  • i love how these songs back then had a orchestra sound to 'em

  • I saw the Delfonics Live in S.F. in 1970's 2nd bill was the Moments and the Whispers. It was at Mr. D's on Broadway. It was like a players ball !!!!!! Everyboday was cut and clean and pimped out. I'll never forget that concert !!!

  • I use to be able to sing with this record...back in the day, a hard thing to do even then.

  • Awosome song I grew up with this music I agree micheal was the best He's gone

    I'm from phila originally and i know this group

  • real music fu%k lil wayne

  • Right in the middle of this song, I had to pause it -- my heart just couldn't take it. This is when music was.... Absolutely great!

  • COOL SONG!

  • It's a flashback alright. thumbs up.

  • My favorite Delfonics song!!!!!!!

  • Uptown Theater in Philly,one of the most pleasurable times of teenage life,being able to see such greatness for such asmall price.

  • this is music and real talent not that studio crap...bring it back..

  • I slow danced my ass off to this and that is why I am the slow jam Queen!

  • the signs that somebody LOVES you

    1 you get flowers sent to your job.....everyday

    2 a hug when you need it the most

    3 you fuck up...and shes still there

    4 after 20 years, every moment alone with her/him isas exciting as the first time

  • Oh my God what memories!!!!!!! Went to a party met a nice guy and danced this song with him!!! Ruthie, I hope you're listening to this!

  • Since everyone is writing who they are.... I guess I will say, I am old and black (46 - but super cute...anyhow I digress)... I am just listening to songs from my childhood that made me wish I was old enough to date and ride in those cool mustang convertibles like the high school girls... This music reminds me of my uncle who just passed away a few days ago... I will always think of him as being handsome, cool, dating .... This all makes me smile....

    Thank you for the lovely memories.

  • @Tracyndc1963 Nice post. This music also evokes memories of my father and uncles that played this music all of the time. Literally hearing this song takes me back to those times -- I can see their youthful faces and frams, I can feel the times, etc... Your post touched me, and I wanted to comimiserate a bit myself. Blessings.

  • From the comments.....it just goes to show you that there are still young people out there that appreciate true love songs instead of cop killing stuff.

    God Bless

  • I have this album, yes I said album! I just love the Delfonics

  • the delphonics always had a great aire of romantic sophistication in their music. Sorry younguns, but most of today's music on the radio sounds like someone beating a baby with a cat....

  • besides how wonderful this music is and most oldies like marvin gaye, sam cooke, the recently deceased teddy pendergrass, isaac hayes, commodores, friends of distinction and etc. is that the music is so good that there's never arguments between comment on the videos, just agreement and appreciation for the music.

  • just listening tothisbrings back memories of Philly and my sweet sixteen birthday party everyone from John Bartram HS and Gratz along with Dobbins was there boy that was the life, no worries at all.

  • I remember seeing the Delfonics at the Uptown Theatre in Philly back in the day...........OH I LOVE THOSE PHILLY BOYS !!!!!!!

  • I have this album and probably every album the Delfonics made. Simply put I just love this group

  • i KNOW somebody loves me..and shes WHITE

  • Everytime I hear the Delphonics they make you wanna cry.......yeah baby!

  • yeah i love it

  • this is it man, MUSIC 2-everyone's ears & hearts, miss those days wit a passion....

  • I have to agree that the music of today is mostly crap.

    Most of your great singers today go back to the 60s

    and 70s. I might have 20 songs that I like since 1990

    but for the 70s alone I have at least 500 songs that I liked

    and the 60s please there is at least a few thousand that I like.

  • this is what I call music!!!!!

  • I'm 53 years of age and I remember this tune. Thank you.

  • luv dis song forever the mighty delfonics

  • The great director Quentin Tarantino of Pulp Fiction fame. Had the wherewithal to recognized the greatness of the Delfonics and had their music be a big part of his film "Jackie Brown". This is the Philadelphia sound at it's best!....

  • Thee shit for love making....keeping it 100...

  • This one has that "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time" type of feelin to it. The ora of the legends was embodied on every track they put out. From the passion, to the mutual reciprocity of love, even down to the natural gift of the purist vocalization and harmonization. There's nothin like the fervor of the old school.

  • one of best male vocal groups period. what a beautiful sound. my wife and i will be attending oldies dance on valentines day. hope they play this one.

  • FREDDY was at MIKIE WALKERS KARAOKE SHOW last night at THE KEW MOTOR INN...IN OUEENS N.Y. he was awesome LADY TEE was also there.AWESOME SHOW check it out . call for info.. awesome system to sing on.

    Maureen

  • Tell the truth and shame the devil!

  • @MzHot84 too funny MzHot, but glad you have an appreciation for the music from our era. Hmmmmm, getting really old lol

  • @MzHot84 I was born a year after this came out. I for one give you my respect for lovin' this joint.

  • Comment removed

  • This is the Delfonics at their best. This is a smoker slow jam from when a good slow made your night. Sounds so nice...got to hear it twice.

  • Thanks for the compliment Jujumanful. With your beautiful comment you've really made my day. I hope that some day we could meet and I could shake your hand. Again thanks.

  • we need more music like this today, to bad this generation of music isnt good its not bad but its not that good either

  • im young, and white, and the music today stink, period, most of them 99% can't sing period. sorry and its the truth MICHEAL WAS THE ONE FOR TODAY AND HES GONE.... I like this music its REAL.. and its beautiful........peace

  • SON OF A BITCH"  I cant believe I:m hearing this. I Wanna SHAKE YOUR HAND,Young MAN" You got OL-SCHOOL in your soul.

  • If you think they suck on record, go out and see them live. I don't see any of the new generation that can hold a candle to people like Michael, Bobby Brown, Prince, Whitney Houston and countless other old school artists.

  • Funny you should mention Michael Jackson. When the J-5 did their first TV appearance, Michael said the Delphonics was their favorite group. They even covered a couple of the Fonics songs.

  • @Winter412 Finally..somebody like me..i really liked seeing your comment..

    I agree 100% with you especially about michael..

    And i'm 15 and white too..so i know what you're feeling..

    peace

  • @Winter412 Alright! I give you my respect for that one.

  • @Winter412 A lot of whites really didn't listen to soul music until the late 80s, early 90s. Now there is a crying in the land for this music. I'm glad. I've been listening to this music all of my life. And it never gets old. Now this generation is being introduced to this by the parents from my day. Now if it could only be filtered back in to the "hood". True musicians, rue song writers, and true music. How it was really done. with heart and soul.

  • @IRONMANHONDO87 Yes, "heart and soul" and not dependent on "synthesizing or enhancements" which take place in most of popular music's genre today. Heart and soul, shit I haven't heard that term in a long time, go figure, you got me, you got me good!

  • @larenteria I'm true old school.

  • @Winter412 Youre right,,, most of the young people cant sing

  • Comment removed

  • @Winter412 White black latino Asian it doesn't matter good music is good music no matter the color of your skin. Why don't we do what this music was meant to make us do and love one another (no homo).

  • @whatizthisidonteven we love too
