Earth, Wind and Fire - Can't Hide Love

[pj23nl]

44 people don't get lyrics that actually mean something.

[mrshad544]

44 people have no sex drive.

[jumbomojokat]

The funniest part of this song is at 1:34 where he says “You can’t pretend their’s nothing there. Girl I look in your eyes and see you care…So, why not stop tryin‘ to run…”. Sounds like grown folk talk to a close-bone chick, or of a big-bone guy -- or both!!!

[jumbomojokat]

Reminds me of daddy when we were in Miami and he used to teach us about the different fish and take us to the Everglades, the beaches, the Serpatarium (“reptile zoo”), pet dolphins, look at manatees (he called them “sea cows”), coloring books, sand boxes, swing sets, play houses, riding on his shoulders, his waling on his hands, etc…

[jumbomojokat]

@jumbomojokat

I meant to say "walking on his hands".

[doogie8558]

You can't hide it!

[Pmr1957]

Soulful tune at it's best...it melts me every time I hear this song. Get down tonight! Class of 1975; so glad to have been born in that era of music.

[melounge22]

:D!

[ranran19701]

from 2:49 to the ending, I used to hear this in college in 1976 and thought "man I never heard anything like that before!".

[stillwaters722]

glad I found one without all the gd ads...thank you.



[lisagonzalesable]

Just close my eyes and I'm there. mmm ;)

[ceasar2690]

Best part to me is at 2:49

[MissDrea825]

@ceasar2690 Yes indeed!

[prophetbyronmotley]

One of these days, I'm going to MAKE LOVE while listening to THIS SONG!

[mrfolson68folsoncom]

Man i'm so glad to be born in 1968 and to here all this awesome, wonderful music, really got the best of both worlds....mid 70's and early mid 80's

[BeautyBdy]

Earth Wind & Fire exploded into the early 70s giving black people hope through music. The anti-establishment and civil rights movements were coming to an end. EWF said "keep your head to the sky" - never give up. I was a young teen at the time. Maurice White group leader & primary vocalist, Phillip Bailey, Larry Dunn, Verdine White, Ralph Johnson, Al McKay Andrew Woolfolk, and Johnny Graham were like gods; unfolding the mysteries of life. LOVE TO THEM ALWAYS...

[RayRaysWiffey]

oh snap this my song lovin old school even though im 12 but i like old music i mean with all the old people in my family i cant help not to listen to it

[thespotteddog]

Name me any other group that can sing "UHHHHHHHHH" for a minute and a half and make it sound like magic.

[MISSION315]

I REMEMBER MY FIRST LISTEN TO THIS SONG IN 1975 ,STILL BLOWS ME AWAY BEST LOVE SONG EVER BY THE ALMIGHTY E W & F ,

[culturemix1]

there is and never will be another Maurice White,.. the flame can get other leads, but no one can do it like Maurice did it !!!!

[Lowellrefugee]

What can I say? This is the top of the line!!!

[heluvsme11]

One of my top EWF cuts!!!!!A Fan 4 Life From East St. Louis, IL:) This is a friend of mines favorite group.....I totally agree but starting at 2:25 prepared u for 2:48 the song gets better....."missing u ow ow," and harmonizing at its best:)

[TheBrittanyyy2]

2:48 towards the end was my favorite part of the whole song, i love earth wind and fire....too bad u wasnt born during this time period, but im not getting any younger :)

[OnlyGodsChild247]

@TheBrittanyyy2 ~ 2:48 is my favorite part to lol

[qsmoothy]

I'm so jealous of all the people who talk about remembering listening to this music back when it taking everything by storm. This music was the best music ever made, and ever will be made. Fuck the remixes and pussy pop shit. This music is the real deal, and this is one of the hottest songs I've ever heard.

[andrewsalazar1]

9:32 in colorado 2011 what else to take the year out with than a classic song like this!!

[ediaby43]

Love this song forever

[TheJuarezG]

Maurice White is the most underated composer. And thats exactly what he was.

[emmettk]

@TheJuarezG Maurice is great, it's true, but Skip Scarborough wrote this song.

[cheekiepetes]

Brilliant track by a brilliant band

[FromUR2UB]

Happy 70th, Maurice White!

[musicgood4yoursoul]

hmmmn hmmmn hmmmm - beautiful!

[oleszhulwill]

@musicgood4yoursoul YES REAL TALK,GOOD MUSIC TO JUST CHILL ON

[musicgood4yoursoul]

hmmmm hmmm hmmn lol

[MrPicklemeat]

EWF and Cameo my two favorite groups

[Yung85MC]

imma 90s baby n i luv dis song

[BirdsofParis]

41 people don't know what music is

[neil2647]

Killer line. "You turn down love like it's really bad." Been there, done that.

[MrWhatitdo7]

all 41, go on the roof and take the quick way down

[MrPeppopappo1]

Wonderful! But what about subliminal messages?

[shakshakniambi]

Whoever disliked... jus curious wht your point in listening was. You can't listen to EWF and dislike and claim to have an "ear" for music. Find your controversy elsewhere...it's all love here fasho.....

[benjahmin1000]

@shakshakniambi Whoever disliked... got mad at the bullshit comercials on youtube... it messed up the whole love makin vibe or ruind their first date ... im lucky to have this lp they should have it too!!!

[vibraharp226]

@shakshakniambi

People have a right to not like the music that you and I believe is great. That 's why the thumbs down icon is there. Some people hate Beethoven, and they have a right to express that dislike. And you're assuming that the dislikers knew the song in advance, came to this page and voted it down. Maybe they heard the song for the first time here, didn't like it, and expressed their opinion. You needn't be defensive - 98.6% voted thumbs up. Peace!

[anthraxmikeydoolin]

@shakshakniambi Maybe they didn't like the 240p quality...

[MrTheTalkShow]

one of the greatest songs ever made on EARTH

[Imtaken61408]

40 people succeeded in "hiding love" I bet cha!

[techsarge1]

Several artists have tried to tell a story in music; but no one will ever come close to Earth Wind & Fire.

[wibli]

playing "air" bass right now........ slaping those two fingers on my ribs.....

[canicole20]

@wibli LMAO at your comment.....WAahahahahahahahah­ahahaa, thats funny!!! I know what you mean..I was over here doing the same thing.My ole man walked in on me and he just shook his head and laughed :-) :-)

[denvermenezes10]

@wibli Slappa the bass mon!! :D

[healthcaregirl3]

I love this song very much. It's very jazzy and very smooth.

[PatPowers1995]

40 people turn down love like it's really bad

[clearlyme63]

man...i remember being a fresh ass 16 yo and having really great experiences back at the time of this jam

[DiamondCharm660]

This My Jam !

[ucandrinkmytea]

If your volume is turned up to "100," it's STILL not loud enough!

PS: This is the THEME SONG on Cloud 9!!! OUTRAGEOUSLY INTOXICATING!

[TheCc4238]

I don't "like" I love it! Thank God I am old enough to remember when this is what you could turn on the RADIO and hear! No drive-bys, no crack, no salvia, just good music and good times........

[marzilyas]

@TheCc4238 the US was actually more violent in the 70s on average than it is now, I'm pretty sure, just in terms of the violent crime statistics.

[sgeezy919]

wht happened to real music like this anyone??

[carmelgoddess612]

the jam

[terrencesrandomvids]

one of my favorite songs by my favorite band and the greatest band of all time

[Yolanda6281]

[BETHJUAN86]

:) this music makes my heart happy. Nice, clean, and precious. I hope my daughter gets my superb taste in music. That would be great.

[BreeLaDolceVita58]

You want my love and you can't deny. You know its true but you try to hide yeah! You turn down love like its really bad yeah! You can't give what you never had. Well bless your soul you can fool a few. I know the truth and so do you. You can't hide! I was in love for the first time when this song came out and everytime I hear it, those beautiful memories come back!

Thanks for posting this song by the greatest band on earth!!!

[rushiebooable]

My favorite part of this song is the intro 28 secs.

[ttdean]

39 people are hiding from love!

[darktemplar234]

man i wish music was like this now

[TheVagaf]

I do love them, but there are many others whom I love more.

[riverblue2]

The best - no words...

[carlicon1]

My mom knew Maurice White. Great growing up listening to this music as a kid and now as an adult. EWF is great and has the greatest horn section in the world!

[countrycropped2011]

Thanks Ralph Johnson for throwing the drum stick at me during the Honolulu Concert and allowing me to kiss your hand! Love EWF my entire life, the music is timeless, beautiful, fun and inspirational!

[268879ac]

wonderful song, not really easy to sing. To those who don t like and think it is only commercial music, try to sing the part of the main singer, just try. And for the musicians, I can ever share the chords, it is a really beautiful song to play and to jam on.

What means betcha?

[Urgleflogue]

@268879ac probably Betcha = I bet you

[radcam69]

@268879ac "I bet you". American slang.

[Black1sfinx]

'This is how true music should sound. Soothing and uplifting to the ears, mind, heart and soul.

The lyrics of Earth Wind & Fire will give aid and understanding to anyone who is willing to open their heart and listen.

The rubbish that is nowadays being thrown at us is merely to confuse the already worried minds. Keep up hope and learn to listen to what is true and pure. Earth Wind & Fire helped me through life and with hard times coming worldwide i'd advise more people to listen and learn.

[Alenabanks1]

I KNOW THE TRUTH NOW SO DO YOU

[rokarolla]

I love everything about this song. Betcha.

[PhoenixKing0617]

38 people are hiding their love

[pretorious700]

[AsarHeru]

Those symbols are not illuminati symbols or free macon(mason) symbols,they are ancient Kemetic(Egyptian) symbols,The Black Gods. Go read a book you caveman,troglodite,reptilian slave.

[shewolfe666]

[JasonMC72]

The music in this song would go great in a massage parlor. It's very soothing.

[10staxaday2]

I love the part when they like ahhhhhhh ahhhhhh ahhhhh and then the trumpets go - dunt dunt dunt dunt dunt..

[SheLovesSmoothJazz]

@10staxaday2 I love that "aaah" part too. That's the special part for me!

Why would you want to hide love in the first place is what I tell her. This is my jam though

[jlb4]

[ChannelSeattle]

[bret66g]

@ashleypoohgirl Don't ever feel bad about listening to this music. You have good taste.And you will be the best bass player in every band you are in if you learn from listening to Verdine White.And believe it or not, someday what you hear now will be old school.Then you will trip, believe me!

[ogronnieb]

YEA!!!! <3 It!

[thisischavez]

Who are the 32 boneheads who came to this song and gave it a thumbs down? Seriously. Were you surprised at something and all of a sudden realized you didn't like this song?? Really?? This is one of the best and most uplifting classics of all time.

[javiromerogime]

Simply amazing! Thanks for Ur music Philip & the rest. Peace, Love & Body Soul.

[kjchicago1]

I was only 14 when this song was out(in 1975)

[JasonMC72]

@kjchicago1 I was only 3(in 1975), but I'm sure I can remember this song as a pre-schooler.

[cleopatrabonz]

Wow when Maurice White sung this song with his shirt off..my my my...I lost it!

[808kmb]

@cleopatrabonz You are stupid!!!, and I mean that in a good way!!!
