This sounds very new wave too me. NW was just becoming popular at this time too. Song was ahead of its time.

i wonder why the camaras did not zoom into the group

@heyroz27 Well Leon Sylvers did write and produce Shalamar. Def sounds like "High School Dance"

@Shalamarman you guys look as if you are truly having a blast. i haven't seen many people who could pull off such choreography while singing. lol. i lost weight doing the steps from "take that to the bank" lol. it just looked like fun so i learned them. you all had some awesome moves. can you still move like this?

Look at 'em people enjoying themselves while the group is singing and dancing as well! The 1970s,and also the 1980s,were really days never to come back again; i can figure out a bit the atmosphere of how it was; and then,as soon as the 1990s came, it's like that "electricity" had progressively faded away ;remember??that era when we were invaded by rap-crap and other crappy music of the same kind(dance,trip-hop,techno...e
tc) well : the nineties,I mean ! -
Not to criticize (I don't like criticizing) but you got it right : Howard Hewett, it's like he wanted to be the only one, the main guy or a sort of leader; he is a great singer, true, and also an accomplished musician, but I think they were better here
,with that line-up

@heyroz27 I agree!!!!

@Shalamarman : )
This sounds like something The Sylvers would sing.
I like how the orginal Shalamar shared the lead
After Howard Hewitt joined the group you saw less of that.
