[216Che]

Was this recorded on Soul Train? That was a Cooooool show :-)

[jkostta]

gta vice city!

[InUnder10Minutes]

True groove !  Talk about good harmonizing.

[quest264]

im 22 and i think its always good to listen to 80s. Its good that so many young people in their twenties can relate and dance to 80s funk music.

[Rayvyn007]

When I saw the thumbnail for this video I thought it was Lamont Sanford.

[CreatureFeatureFred]

@Rayvyn007 Me too, lol.

[taxidriver508]

I would like to dedicate this video and song to my dear friend Candie girl who just recently passed away with a rather short battle with breast cancer,she use to really like to rock out to this song back in the day and so did i,PEACE and HEALTH to all.

[roses4theworld52]

I lost my dad 1 month ago and it does hurt be strong anf God will walk you through God Bless

[Fartogo56]

@roses4theworld52 The things that make us stronger are what they call such an event, bu by God why does it have to hurt so much, I just hope in time for both of us it will get better. Peace!

[TheNbaLover22]

so cool

[Chaza107]

Im 17 but 80s is just pure bliss born in the wrong period of time

[SandoTrini]

@Chaza107 this is 79'.....lol

[Chaza107]

Ha ha does not matter its preety much 80s ok what about fat larys band zoom

[Gaznugget]

@Chaza107

This is 70s.

[Gaznugget]

@Chaza107

Nevermind it's already been said. Still 70s music like this is fantastic. 70s and 80s are always the best, with just a little sprinkle of 60s and 90s too.

[CreatureFeatureFred]

@Chaza107 I was a teen in the 80's, the music, tv shows, movies, clothes were bliss. Everything else not so much. Least not in the 'hood. I ate so much Reagan cheese, I still can't look at a block of American without shivering.

[ByNzre]

@Chaza107 I'm also 17, and I know EXACTLY what you mean :)

[helltongz]

@Chaza107 I'm 16 and it's the same...

[AliYourBrother]

That foot work is loco.

[Natalyca8631]

[ArchOfficial]

80's music is best music.

[Wayn055]

That was sweet "like"

[EiziSama]

VICE CITY !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jonathan19279]

THIS is what should be on the radio these days, not those raps about drugs and money. I don't want to start any arguements, though.

[briantlager]

son whoever was on the bass is a beast, it sounds like a freakin machine wtf

[nova2real]

just listen to the song....the stories you guys make up always have me laughin

[MissB4ugosayhigh]

Every time I hear this song it reminds me of junior high school @ Ritenour in Missouri. I can listen to this song anytime.

[MrSTANGlover]

Some say these people now sing in heaven with Whitney and Michael and if that's true, I don't know what I'm doing here. :)

[BeatsProduce]

Polska lol !

[checkavanz101]

Listen to the melodies watch the moves! These guys had it...except the kudos they deserve

[cheapcape]

disco bliss

[HotHotNewNew]

Think I want that on my tombstone, "And The Beat Goes On." With musical notations.

[DaveWollenberg]

Gang, could ya PLEASE comment on the song, WITHOUT usin' cuss words? I know you can, just try it!

[TheKanTcant]

@DaveWollenberg Oh shut up you old cunt.

Phat Tune!

[NaJoJo]

So damn funky..wish this kind of music was played more in clubs these days

[quantezc3]

i swear dis dat funkadelic, cant help but dance music... soul enriching!!! I might be young, but i know good music when i hear it



[notlisteningg]

Dis is fucking nice

[MichaelBBL]

Ce sont les années bonheures. Il y n'y en aura jamais 2 fois comme sa.

[aguerrero1963]

Fartogo56 due to sin this life is about life and death unfotunately, i feel your pain through your words but you have to be strong and move on,i've been fortunate to have both of my parents still, but god is with you on this struggle to be yourself again.

[crissandthemum]

God, this takes me back. I remember buying this as a 12" single and playing it over and over and over! Still a great song and the smoothest dance moves EVER!

[alabina38]

toute mon adolescence, c'était le temps de la joie et des rigolades avec les copines, trop bien, vive le funnnnnkkkkk!!!!!

[luizantonio26ify]

I also lost my parents at once, surely you will have the strength to move on.

magnificent sound.

[lottietotty]

The sneaky air guitar incorporated into the dancing iinitiallty makes my moth crinkle up each side-so totally transported me back through the years to Greg Edwards and Robbie Vincent Soul Spectrum days obn Capital when it was still the tower in Euston Rd! They later did a jobfinder through Thatchers 80's and I got my 1st job through them at 16 working for an artiste representation company :) Bananarama had just released the collaboration with The Fun Boy 3 it was a long hot summer that year (82)

[MichaelBBL]

J'avais perdue le nom du groupe. Merci youtube.

[MichaelBBL]

J'aime trop leurs coupe afro :-(.

[BadassMutha400]

Man, Will Smith must be getting hella royalties from The Whispers sampling this song from him!

[MagniusKun]

@BadassMutha400 Please tell me you're joking? You can't be that dumb.

[cptrace]

That woman dancing in front has a really big Afro. It was distracting but great song!

[sixstringCM06]

big willy can suck it.

the original is where it's at

[1viciousguy]

GTA vice city brought me here.

[jjelf2]

@1viciousguy loser



[mdavid22]

I thought that was Lamont from Sanford and Son

[sexyssilverfox]

Wow, this is when folks wore suits to go out. Man, they must have been HOT!! And the songs lasted forever; they were dancing all night long.  I was too young to go out then, but I loved the music.

[Judokaboxer1979]

Vocally this song is off the charts. I gotta give props to the instrumentalists also. Rock solid playing. The guitar and bass playing is tight. And who could forget that organ riff?

[DaveWollenberg]

Gang, could ya PLEASE make comments, WITHOUT havin' to swear, or, cuss? Little kids imitate what they read!

[MrSTANGlover]

@DaveWollenberg They imitate what they read? Well, GOOD... they should do the same with what they hear!! :D

[DaveWollenberg]

@MrSTANGlover Swearin' just proves that people are simply incapable of findin' clean words to express themselves.

[Egrodo1]

@DaveWollenberg True but I dont think little kids would be watching this. Even though I am 14, most kids my age dont have good taste.

[DaveWollenberg]

@Egrodo1 You show GREAT taste in music, young person!

[Egrodo1]

@DaveWollenberg Thanks! I think this is the only place on the internet where you get praised for being young, instead of insulted.

[DaveWollenberg]

@Egrodo1 Also, thanx for NOT swearin'. I salute you!

[doujin]

@DaveWollenberg fuck that shit

[DaveWollenberg]

@doujin Do ya happen to know how unintelligent that sounds?

[DaveWollenberg]

@doujin Do ya happen to know how unintelligent that sounds?

[aguerrero1963]

This time i'll keep my feet on solid ground now i understand myself when im down girl you treat me bad but ive been through stormy weather and the beat goes on just like my love .... Everlasting...................

.....

...

[ar4216]

Check out what I'm guessing is the host on the far left, from about 4:00 on. Even he's grooving. That's what happens when a jam is this tight. It gets a hold of you.

[awkmid86]

now a days aint know one know how to make music...damn kids wit yhur ipod's nd shit

[momof4jays]

this is when folks took pride in their lyrics, dance, and the way they dressed. Clean cut and can actually sing. Pull your damn pants up people. That is gettin' old.

[goddydee2]

The way it used to be back in the day. This song truly captures the free spirit of that time and serves a good lesson for how we should look at life, irrespective of what we have to live through. A true classic that should always be relevant, no matter the era.

[maintain25]

One of the Few Songs I can keep on REPEAT all day

[Just4air]

5 words: Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

[therealraybaby]

#484

[GCSalinas]

Dont stop for NOBODY

[246Gill]

Music to get down to for sure.

[wakirori]

when the beat goes on,is what we sung in the 80s.i love this guys what a boggie time it was

[InMyNightSky]

I wonder how many times people would call, this song and music video "So Gay" if it came out in 2012. 

[pukkepukke]

Yet so fresh and stylish and 33 years!

[pukkepukke]

So fresh and stylish!!!

[SentinelSam]

two thumbs up for lemont from sanford and son...singing lead

[DaveWollenberg]

@SentinelSam That's 'Scotty' Scott, on lead vocals.

[DawidVinicios]

Musica muito booooa !

[grewert7890]

I like that music..w owwww

[aguerrero1963]

These guys are way better than the temptations! Great song! Thank you whispers!

[100yunggreat]

gta vice city <3

[Fartogo56]

That was My Father's favorite song, he always said that's how life is. Things go on and life continues, never thinking he preparing me, in a way for when he was no longer here. We lost him and it hurts like nothing on Earth. So I hope he can still hear this song in Heaven, and that Jesus and the Angels, are dancing with him to his favorite song. Help me God to go on. I love you Pap!

[GCSalinas]

@Fartogo56 Sorry to hear that. No doubt he can still hear this music in heaven. God Bless.

[momof4jays]

@Fartogo56 Awwww! making me miss my Daddy! (Papa)

[ndc18]

@Fartogo56 I'm sorry about your loss.

[Fartogo56]

@ndc18 Thank you, there some things in life no one should go through, my Father's passing was one of them. I send Blessings to you, so you may never experience any thing like that. Peace!

[WRANGLERBOY1000]

My dad lovd'it too :(((((

[Fartogo56]

@WRANGLERBOY1000 Here is a wish that your Dad will stay in all your memories, that is how I remember my Dad also. Best of all when I hear this song. Peace!!!

[MoreSnakes]

@Fartogo56 god bless your soul keep goin!

[Fartogo56]

@MoreSnakes I will do my best to do just that, but some times when I try to sing, I have to empty my mind and not think of him. If I don't nothing will come out of my mouth, thank for your blessings and I will send them back to you as well.

[Magicprincess9000]

I bet Will Smith was inspired by this song!

[Imperator360]

Great song from late 70's to 80's. This is really classy music right here, mates.

[phobiazzzero]

welcome to MIAMI

:D

[DaveWollenberg]

The Whispers hit #19 in Billboard, 4-12-80. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a blessed week! RIP, Marcus Hutson. 51 folks don't have the beat goin' on!

[athena30906]

My DAD loves this song... it reminds him of K-Town West Germany..........

[246Gill]

A W S O M E

[FashKaz]

I just can't get out of the car when this song is rockin' Fever 105 in Vice City. This radio is a trap !

[AlbertArtanis]

[Iklo0000]

@AlbertArtanis I'm a 9gagger.. And I really like it..!

[tomtalker2000]

@AlbertArtanis AMEN...!!! God this breaks back memories. What happened to music really....? (g)

[PiksiDark]

Real Music with Real Singers !.....C s'ke Moi, j'Appel de la Zic !.... Prava Muzika sa pravim Pevacima !.....

[masry86]

Will smith sampled this and made a mockery out of it.. for shame

[redryan20000]

@masry86 actually his version is probably better

[masry86]

@redryan20000 Thats your opinion not fact. And it is not a version as it is not even the same song... it is a mere cut copy, paste and repeat that is all.. since it is SAMPLE of the tune

[aguerrero1963]

Thank you whispers for this great song,i tought tavares' heaven must be missing an angel was good.... you're just as good!!!!!!! I bought this 45 record back in the summer of 1979! And this song's been on my mind ever since!! Good job,again thank you whispers for making this great song a true classic we'll never forget...

[grantpacer02]

Their moves are better than the temptations I love this performance

[bleachwad]

this song helps me take my mind off of "her" for a few minutes

[lewstone1934]

this was just another song back then.... now it would be a masterpiece??

[johnpopes]

this bass is so good my ass hurts

[Rasmussen710]

Now that's real man moves!!

[Speepshowdemon]

said thank you to the whispers for having created this magical music, and not GTA...

[Leyhoooo]

@Speepshowdemon Thats a weird way to put it.

[muffincancel]

Like it or not this is one of the best funky songs Ever! Bravo, excellent. Great song ...

[PAQUITO1966]

HURRAY FOR THE 80,s

[mzreed4life]

[nriab23]

Death to Beiber's music and Death to the X factor

[nriab23]

lol I had to watch some horrible ad for a terrible single being released in 2012 before I could listen to this classic.

[alanheath]

@nriab23 I was lucky. I got a really interesting ad - I even watched it all the way through it was so interesting.

[SughCrew]

@nriab23 : Use Firefox + the Adblock Plus module and ads will be past ;-)

[Beezayo]

@nriab23 isnt everyone in the world using adblock plus yet?

[TheRenka44]
