[smithyboo70]

[RevRonL]

Man i love this song. The harmony, the way it builds up, the way she 'moans' at 2:17, and they are all so beautiful. And as said in the posts before - they have clothes on, talent and a great back up band. THANKS for posting - great glimps back to TV and music and a song that will never get old. Nameste ~ r

[cube1726]

[iamthequeenbee100]

[jameskoolkat]

OMG! This reminds me of SPARKLE!

[bobo4890]

Kool :)

[chirasuANDhoeru]

Jittery, but I kind of like it. Looks like I'm really watching from a television set from back in the day. One of my favorite songs. How can you not want to sing along to it or move?

[MARTINHAHAHA]

she was so precious

[scubadoo1238]

ROFL LOL LOL LMAO.. THIS WAS WHEN TV WAS FREE WAY BACK WHEN LOL

[Pandoranage4101]

PURE HEART.

[Kimfosterga]

Amazing how covered up they are. They have real clothes on and everything! Not a boobie in sight!

[iMpReZa120]

@Kimfosterga Nowadays so many artists really suck LIVE, so they gotta make sex sell

[bobonbass51]

[ynpoetess]

Want to hear The Emotions' new song, LIFE?? Check my station, ynpoetess! You know them as THE EMOTIONS. I know them as MOM & AUNTIES! ;)

[imPRESSivePR]

Yo!  Did you make this video in 1977 too?

[krunkessence]

luv it!

[dlomas52]

omg this was when women were naturally beautiful, simple makeup and normal hair. No photoshop, and no autotune. NO spray tan but natural glowing skin, and their skin isnt overly exposed at all. Damn how gorgeous :)

[gonzobrains]

@dlomas52 yeah, now all the chicks you see on TV are totally deceptive. DESTROY ALL MAKEUP MANUFACTURERS!

[gonzobrains]

how did they get bright teeth before bleaching products???

[sunnystone01]

@gonzobrains By brushing them 2 x's a day and flossing atleast once! HaHa.

[tribe1964]

i just love the song thanks for the video

[tribe1964]

i just love the song thanks for posting

[reddvelvet]

Listen to that high harmony. Now that's real singing!

[xosmoochiexo92]

Anyone with more then half a brain knows that the music industry is dead. Almost everything is canned. Most songs are either a rehash of old music, or lyrics. Mainstream singers are cookie-cuttered, and hand selected for their looks and stage presence (Bieber). Not their talent. Sure he may be able to sing, but he can't truly preform like some of the old grates, who actually worked to get to the top, and weren't corn fed studio designed garbage to sing.

[petuniababi]

@xosmoochiexo92 AMEN!!!!!

[petuniababi]

Respond to this video... GREAT VIDEO,THANKS FOR POSTING!!

[wreck993]

brings me back to being young, women were sexy without having to show to much. Ladies bring it back !!

[regdawgformerusmc]

Fix tha TV, it remind me of the old days.... ah, they are gone forever.

[aworthyone]

Love the song. All time favorite. I'm a natural girl so you know I'm loving the afros. Thanks for the post.

[superintegre]

thx for upload (if yu hav lotof vhs,for better qulity chek on ebay : vhs convert)

[lawrence9333]

I remember seeing them live in concert in 1977 singing that song...what a great concert it was!!!!

[Cookee2610]

these were the BEST days. Music was music. Can you feel it?!

[BrandyKluxKlan]

They look happy and like they are enjoying themselves, and yes i know they are "lippng" but they are SANGING even if the microphones are on mute. I wonder what they look back and think of those years

[yvessaintlaurent88]

The emotions sound NOTHING like white women. No white woman could ever sing w/ this much soul. The person who typed that GOTS to be living in some kind of fantasy if they believe they could EVER sound like a sista!

[LSDvideosystem]

This song real cool,but....quality is terrible!

[lovebeamer1]

@LSDvideosystem ...Can you be a little more original pleaes????? Just pass through and seize the moment! That's how this were back in the day!!! That was the quality of the video!!! I'm just trying to share the talent of my girls...Good, bad or otherwise...the "veiws" speak for itself.. Better yet...Post YOUR OWN!!!! Thanks for swinging through!

[Phobelia]

@LSDvideosystem I reckon and i still watched it haha !!

[msconciouswmn77]

I remember those TV signals and yes u had to hit the side of the TV to make it work lol! Nevertheless it brought qaulity to shows as welll as music in our homes. thanks for posting this video. I love this song.

[eritreangurrl]

these girls own destiny's child lol

[mc4ever97]

<3<3<3<3<3 I luv this song! :)) <3<3<3<3

[girlygator11]

I'm 21 & i refuse to listen to the crap they play nowadays! THIS IS REAL MUSIC!!!....I was born in the wrong decade :o(

[dhilton65]

love it on the rollin' tv..xx

[blacquegurl69]

Lol,I love this song I remember listening to this song when my mom had it on 8 track and the tape getting stuck in the player I got my a** whipped because I was told not to touch the tape player.......lol! Those were the days

[Gabrielsilvamesquita]

This song is the 9th best record among all those made in 1977.

[fsl001]

X Factor...get stuffed...this is what it's all about

[roanokebarry]

Great.....1977 wow bet they were playing a 45 or album while the ladies lip sync this treasure.....thanks for posting....

[SlowDave1]

I keep thinking, "Hey, vert hold, come on..." Brings back a simpler time. But that is great music! I can just hear the thumb pop on the bass. And the harmony and voices are wonderful. Beautiful!

[ilovemusicalot07]

I'm just 10 years old and this music is the type of music I THINK is real music,today's music is like trash people just don't care and throw it on the floor and that's how music gets ruined.

[Adam060756]

I didn't know they were black?

I always pictured a white woman singing this.

Awesome song.

[ilovemusicalot07]

@Adam060756 Does it matter what race?I don't know if you are but you sound extremely racist.

[Adam060756]

@ilovemusicalot07 No I was NOT being racist and No it doesn't matter what race, the singer sounds like a white woman to me thats all, bloody hell, settle down, I didn't know it was against the law to say the word BLACK on youtube. I'm sorry ''NON WHITE'' person.

[kacobb1]

Love the T.V. view. Brings back fond memories of life in the 70's before cable T.V, & all these high tech HD huge 200 inch television sets we have today. All thats missing is a view of the antenna, or the coat hanger in place of the antenna.

I take it the 26 dislikes on the video to date are the youngsters that don't know what television USED to be like. Poor kids, don't know what they missed was worth more than all the wealth in the world today times one hundred.

[hardrockshell]

THE EMOTIONS, I LOVE YOU!! THE BEST OF MY LOVE!!CONGRATULATIONS!!

[MsQueen4]

What trips me out is so many of our modern day artists will boast & brag about how they were inspired by groups like this but, then I wonder if they are so inspried and being so truthful; why do most of this ish coming out today sound like trash? Hmm...

[6y298]

@MsQueen4 short answer, because trash sells.

[bigbarry999]

LOL, we used to tkae turns to fix up the Tele when it used to roll

[mjjcng8958]

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS VH1 NOW? THEY SHOULD HAVE KEEP THEIR CHANNEL THE WAY IT WAS.

[Foxlocke]

I LOVE THIS! LOL! They are so pretty and their vocals are on point!

[WilliamRowlett]

Where can I get a retro 70's afro?

[MsQueen4]

@WilliamRowlett Lol.. 

[MrMazda11]

man im only 16 and i tell yall ive been brought up old skool so they call me old skool new skool bcuz this is what you call music but i really love the emotions for dont ask my neighbor

[petuniababi]

ONE OF MY FAVORITES,MY COUSIN WAS IN THE AIR FORCE AND GAVE IT TO ME,I STILL PLAY IT.

[petuniababi]

youth is truly wasted on the young,oh if i only knew then!!!!

[jizzy310]

@petuniababi ...I was just about to post the same thing on my facebook page, If only I'd known how precious those days would become, I would've treated them better.

[speedoflite1]

My 1st real love ('75) said this song was her song to me. ...i did her wrong, and its haunting to this day.

[ipswichgirl05]

they are SO cool!!!!!!!!!! lol! i love it! the attitude! haha so cool!

[HSV003]

great song, pity about the video quality

[fatality70]

im a 40 year old virgin and i love this song

[indy00kat]

love the jittery tv signal....

Ahhh, the lost days of youth are gone forever.

[lovebeamer1]

@indy00kat

LOL!!! You know how it was back in the day! Slap the side of the TV..Wire hangers and Tin foil! :) Thanks for the drop by!

[videeojunke]

@indy00kat i like how the audio sounds,like their singing to an actual record that's being played in the background!!! yep,i wish those days were still around!

[Sandra999ful]

@indy00kat aint that the truth /

[retchen]

@Sandra999ful What's happened is that you are so used to white women trying to sound like black women that you've got confused between the two. From the days of Janis Joplin and ever since white women have stole a living trying to pass themselves off as soul singers. Usually badly.

[lovebeamer1]

@indy00kat .. ;0)

[mammacoco1]

Sang!!!!!!!!!

[copali]

''- signori e signore, direttamente dal televisore di casa, le THE EMOTIONS con -best of my love- -'' ..... : D : D :D :D

[TinyandReba]

[plutovex]

there's no way the music now is better. they dont even kno how to put on a show now a days. they use too many machines.

[lubbers151]

i love this music especially emotions

[MsDestinyDancer]

[jloves2sing]

[bobnos]

this is amazing.. fav'd

[Gerald56]

That is soooo Earth Wind & Fiery.

They are sooo gorgeous.

One of the best songs ever ... [* * * * *]

[maxou1000065]

wow wow you get the best of my love....this is some disco song

[sydshell]

My mom ran this song when I was 4....

[Beyoncefan1000]

I use to always get this song and Cheryl Lynn's "Got To Be Real" mixed up together for some odd reason. I gues because the introduction of the two songs are somewhat similar!!!!!!!

[maxday1000]

@Beyoncefan1000 YEAH I THOUGHT THAT FOR A LONG TIME LOL

[maxday1000]

@Beyoncefan1000 they reminds me of the Clark sisters lol

[Beyoncefan1000]

@maxday1000 omg its amazing that you said that because i'm a 21 yr old who loves these girls so much!!! and I always told people that The Emotions were the Clark sisters of R&B music!!! while great minds think alike huh!

[rufus317]

@maxday1000 The Hutchinsons were around way before the Clark Sisters.

[maxday1000]

what about it lol?/

[Beyoncefan1000]

@rufus317 umm not true the clarks first album came out in 1974

[olddominion394]

This came out when I was 16 had it on 8track listened to it ridin around in my 66 4dr. hrd top Impala the baretta car! lol! Wish I had that damn car now!

[snoflaked]

thank you for posting!

[wavalo]

you guys know that our music now iz why better

[lovebeamer1]

Someone's quite misinformed!!!! ^ 85% of today's music has samples and elements of the oldies! Not to mention the oldies consisted of LIVE instrumentations! lol But that's for stopping by :)

[blumic]

Yeah lovbeamer1 is quite right, most of the music now is actually taken from the oldies. We just don't realize it because we have never heard it before. Music back then had more substance than what we have today. Kanye is a big sampler of the oldies.

[SykoYamakazian]

alot of modern music sucks, its all about the same stuff.

sex, drugs, love.... if its rock music its about depression, violence or war..

I love the oldies and reggae and some modern music

[kashk9]

@wavalo and what make you said that

[GooGoo32]

You can't even spell. I think the music you listen to know taught you that. lol

[xxmaterialxgirlxx]

@wavalo if you're going to say something at least make it gramatically correct retard

[harleykman]

@wavalo Overall I'd say the 90s decade was the best era..... a little bit of disco... a little bit of rap... power ballads... rock... emo... alternative... even teen band pop (N'sync, et cetera)

.

There was never as much wide variety as during the transitional decade

.

[brooklynsfirstlady]

@wavalo ok shawt bus shawty now please sit all the way down

[terry123inrochny]

What memories!!! I was 14 when this was out. It remins me of listening to "American Top 40" and the king of the hill battle the emotions had with andy gibb's 1st great song. andy was #1 for 3 wks, the emotions kicked him out for 5 wks, andy came to #1 for a week only for the emotions to come back and spend 2 more weeks at #1!!! the next week, they were bothout of the top 10. I loved Kasey Kasem and AT40 back then!!!

[naveen1972z]

how cute, they are so little lol. I love it

[NiloRodrigues1]

lindo

[70sbaby80schild321]

This came out when I was born.

[ShawBrothersGirl]

This came out when I was 7 years old. Those were the days

[BLKSMOKE12]

This is real music and i can't see how anything of today's music can compare. This stuff made you want to get up and dance. The other day i caugfht my 18 year old dancing to this and she denied it,but i was watching her for a while when she saw me standing there.....lol . The young people like this better then their own music. This is music you can really feel deep down inside.

[dezzio214]

HAHA that's funny

[Dazammm]

It is absolutely wonderful when songs bring back beautiful memories! My girlfriends and I started screaming when we found these songs on here! Maaaan!

[savisk]

you mean your boyfriend bahahahahah!!!

[GoldenLaces]

I love this song! There's always an urge to sing along when this song is playing

[plezhurhouse]

my cousins--havent seen them since childhood---wish I could get in touch with them. Blessings Wanda, Sheila, Jeanette--from the Gayden Fam--

[giaisbomb]

YOUR COUSINS RULE!!!!

[iisraeliteprincess]

[CyberSlayer80]

[preciousscicche]

[fjaoaoaoao]

go Vonzell!

[tenaji]

this song is in my top ten for LIFE

[kriztymultimedia]

i wished u have more like from the very beginning of the music i like this song and wanna learn to sing it.hopefully u'll post more like this song.

[TheNewsoul2]

going st8 to church, the reason why modern R&b music sucks is that the singers have left the church influence and are more interested in 'crossing over' and sounding less black than groups like The Emotions and others who were connected musically , socially, and spritually to the music of tradtional gospel choirs ,modern gospel sucks because it's too electronic and lacks lacks soul. And thank Maurice White of EWF who wrote a classic song with the Hutchinsons vocal gifts.

[lovebeamer1]

AMEN!!!!!AWOMEN!!!! Thanks for this^!

[WORKOUT66]

@TheNewsoul2 OH how true u are.....SO TRU SO TRU.

[SideWinder77777]

@TheNewsoul2

Well stated. The folks rooted in traditional (REAL) gospel music definitely have more 'soul and a stronger sense of "groove" than most of the current pop. R&B groups.

Back then, people just sang, played instruments, clapped their hands, or whatever the "Spirit" moved them to do. They didn't rely on computers and/or and other electronic "gadgets" to "enhance"/produce their sound. They relied on themselves and each other. Much of today's R &B is missing that "human" element.

[sidneycanella]

In my humble opinion this is one of the 5 most beautiful song from de XX century!!

Thank for share this!!

[sexysweet87]

i love this song this really music

[RozMcCoy]

[peasah2005]

lovebeamer1

These sisters where just out of the world.

The Emotions were just so funky even when they where with Earth, Wind and Fire with Boogie Wonderland.

I wish them all the best, Sister Shelia, Sister Wanda and Sister Annette, if my memory serves me right.

[all4mePope]

Now this is what you call MUSIC...What wonderful memories...

[Gar42nett]

I feel you!! I don't know what they call the junk they play today

[hotcheetoluver2007]

[maneal1949]

maneal1949

[cometrally]

I love everything about this... the happy horns, their amazing afros, their synchronized movements, ... God I wish I'd been alive in the '60s and '70s!

[COMPFUNK2]

[PastorGbenga]

[canyouseeme06]

The beat to this sounds like Mariah's song Emotions.

[TyjaluvsChaka]

Gee I wonder whereshe got it from? And the title to the song!

You Got Me Feeling "EMOTIONS"

[canyouseeme06]

wow! I didn't know that  (sarcastically speaking)

[aishaparker]

LOL, yeah that's where she got from. LOL. I love both songs.

[woodie62]

No, Mariah's song sounds like the beat to this tune . . .

[Redboy4]

or the other way around :)

[genenyc]

love the song and the video but the 1970's TV with the rolling video is a trip!

[Mottahead]

There's a Brazilian version of this song called "Minha Menina".

Just search Mauricio Manieri Minha Menina on youtube.... and have fun.

[alexismaetaylor]

aw

i love this song :)

[MakaveliShady]

If someone brought this song out this year, it would be full of autotune and half naked singers....

these ladies could sh*t on any singers nowadays. LOVE this song. thanks!

[mykmyk0910]

I love it at 2:16 when wanda looks at her sisters like.." Oh yeah! we got this..." lol

[AltaDelphinium]

These ladies got the pipes and kill it with their moves and voices!

[joshiejjones07]

Saw them live in '77, opening for the

original Commodores.

The smallest one on the right finished the act and brought the house down when

she said: "Forget about the Rest, 'cause

you got the Best"

It was over! Fest bad for Lionel & Walter

having to follow THEM!

Bad-asses, all three of them!

Great composition,great instrumental (EW&F) and great singers!!!

[bassmanvic]

OH man !! I listened to these ladies when I was 17 yrs. old and after years passed I really thought they had died,are they still aroundif so anyone has an updated video on them.they had the best voices for soul music.great video,don't worry about the tv.

[lovebeamer1]

ShutYoMouth bassmanvic!!! lol They're all very much alive (thank God) and singing their faces off! :) Thanks for thecomment..

[witnyv04]

wanda hutchinson vaughn is my mom (and the others are my aunts.) they are still alive! :)

[woodie62]

Would you please tell them thanks so much for beautiful music and wonderful memories and God bless them forever!!!!

[Bannerrose09]

Thanks'n feel'n it !

[70sPopRock]

All good things must come to an end. Or at least that cliché held true until it came to years 1974 through 1977. The hits just kept coming, one after another. And in 1977, it was impossible to conceive of anyone unseating Andy Gibb's four week chart topper, "I Just Want To Be Your Everything." But the "Emotions" were well deserving of that prestigious honor when they entered the 'Top 40' with one of the greatest disco hits of all time, and sensational five week chart topping "Best Of My Love!"

[xbabyvainx]

I fucking love this song !!!

[destiny985]

URGH IT'S SUCH A BOOTY SHAKER RIGHT!?!?!?!?!? 16 now, and heard it when was 15, loved it ever since and will do forever! can anyone recommend any other amazing songs similar to this please? I want to make a funky CD! thanks!

[xbabyvainx]

Yeah I'm 15 and love my old music nuff.

Well there are the isley brothers , i like in between the sheets + contagious . And Jonas sisters are great too .

I like donel jones , but he not nearly as old these girls , but he makes amazing love making songs such as ' do you wanna ' Good luck with the CD =]

[nowdrop305]

This will forever be the funk !

[daveheel]

[maricris0911]
