My daughter and her father danced to this at her wedding last weekend. She asked the DJ to play it again because she wanted to dance with her father a little bit longer. I’m so grateful for the relationship they have. We didn’t work out as husband and wife but I can proudly say that we raised one hell of a woman!!! Much love from Harlem NYC ❤❤❤
@@theoldschooldiva374I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life but I can proudly say that my daughter turned out to be such a great woman. Me and my ex husband had a tumultuous marriage but one thing we did was make sure our baby girl was loved and taken care of. He was a horrible husband but as a father he was and still is A plus!!
I love how they used a father-daughter context instead of the typical love-interest theme. To see this many African-American men embrace being hands-on fathers always made this song a little more special to me.
Elizabeth Jones -I love the theme too, it adds another dimension to a man when you see them with their daughters, or kids in general. So many men are uninvolved so this was and always will be a more refreshing theme then if it was to a grown woman.
Ry Ry It’s not about the song being about girls. It’s about the first commenter saying “there’s nothing more beautiful than a man being real fathers to their daughters” and just left the boys out. A boy needs his father to teach him how to be a man...

+Maurice Freeman Congratulations, Maurice. You be sure to be the best father you can. And let her know what a real man is. She's gonna pick her husband based on your behavior. Never forget that.
Teddy's daughter Deja,who is in this video playing violin, danced with Teddy to this song at her wedding for the Father daughter dance...its was beautiful!!
One thing I admire about Teddy Riley is that he doesn’t deal with mediocre vocalists. Each and every member of Blackstreet can lead a song and are powerhouse vocalists. They all bring a unique sound and element to the group. That’s a blessing.
Listen to this every time I hold her,..I dang it to her tonight and she smiled..I'ma always do my best to protect my children I love them with all of my soul 💙💓💙
+Ellis james I hear you man . they do not sing like this no more . I'm old school and proud of it . The music they play today is just to forward . There is a song where a man says in the song " put it in your mouth " , And I say to myself how do they let this out on radio . I have to ask my child sometimes , Are you listening to the words you are singing ? Do you know what he's saying ? But I hear you man , That era is gone forever .
This is my song dedicated to my oldest daughter. She's 24 now, despite her battles with mental illness, her being my first child ignited a knowledge that now somethings are bigger than ourselves
Musically, this was Blackstreet's BEST song hands down. Sure, they've had bigger hits, but this song is musically their BEST. Makes sense that Michael Jackson co-wrote this. It's VERY reminiscent of The Jacksons' "Show You the Way to Go". Beautiful song.
@@williebowen2965 hence me saying "co-writer". Regardless of how much was written, Michael Jackson is credited as a co-writer (and actually, he's listed first in every single place I've looked).
My daughter is my joy from God. I am in music ministry, and this song is God, because God is love and love of your daughters/children is God also. I've listened to nothijf but Christian music for the last 4 years, but I miss real R&B like this and being in the studio. Im making a new playlist with real love songs like this one, and I'm going to get back to writing and working on non traditional melodies for my Christian songs. I'm inspired.
I dedicate this song to the man who wrote this song for Blackstreet, my childhood crush whose music I just came back to last year, the late, great, Michael Jackson. This would have been another hit for Michael in my opinion! Michael, you continue to bring me joy even though are no longer here with us. After being away from MJ for 13+ years after he passed, including the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, and enduring times of loss and other rough times,, I decided that 2022 was the year I would return to Michael's music. So after putting on "This Is It," and after hearing Michael sing again after a long time, as the song says, Michael "erased all the sadness away." God brought Michael back into my life at the right time. I'm NEVER leaving him and his music for this long EVER again! You bring me joy, Michael Joseph Jackson! Love you Michael, and miss you too! RIP! Dara
❤ Beautiful song! I’ve just started listening to MJ again too! I’ve loved him all my life but fell away from music all together and after his passing it was even harder to listen to him but thank God I can listen to him again!
I dedicate this to my beautiful granddaughter Nyomi JOY Davis who passed away unexpectedly Wednesday March 8th, two days shy of her 1yr old birthday. ❤😪 Our real life Angel...we love you Boo Boo!!😘😘😘😘
Just a theory but the the "thumbs down" most likely comes from people wanting the original version of the song.Remember they slightly remixed this version with additional instruments which I think kind of takes away from the original.
Michael made a great decision allowing Blackstreet to record Joy. It has always been my absolute favorite by Blackstreet! Makes me miss Michael all the more.❤️
@@williebowen2965 he actually recorded a version & it didnt make the cut.. bro you acting like you scking blackstreet d😂 you in every comment doing the most with false info
MAAAAANNNNN!!!! This came out when i had my sons, but this hits so much HARDER with my 2 sweetie pie GRANDDAUGHTERS!!!! I AM SOOOOO GRATEFUL!! NANA LOVES YOU!!
He did because it was a interview of teddy riley ( the one who works on Michael Jackson 's 1991 album dangerous ) admitted he wrote and recorded for Michael in the song it was gonna be released but they end up give it to backstreet
This music video is so beautiful. You can hear the composition is by MJ. This song is filled with radiance and with a melody so divine. Full of purpose.
Yes full of positive purpose which is why I love it so much and the father and daughter bonding. It is just soo beautiful. If this song don't make you cry or touch your soul then something is deeply wrong with you.
This song is for my mom who passed away two days after her bday September 3, my son who passed November 25 who bro me joy as a man to be a father, my brother who passed after my son November 28 and the woman who's been there with me through it all who I've been with for years and later I married in July.
Most definitely one of them songs I keep on repeat, the fact the Michael Jackson wrote it is crazy because I hear his voice all over this , he always made beautiful music r.i.p mj thanks blackstreet for delivering this song the right way
Yes. Children are such blessings. I created a video for my granddaughter graduating from kindergarten from her pic just after my daughter gave birth to her lying on her dad's chest as an infant to my daughter nursing then with her dad at 6 years old. Then finally with her standing by herself on graduation day. With JOY in the background audio. Everytime I see it it brings tears to my eyes!!!
+Fabulous Divo So what if they aren't? Man or woman, the music can tug on emotions that you didn't even know you had. Especially when kids are in the picture.
Niki Martin no bitch it makes you wonder by stereotyping me by my username ....my sexuality has nothing to do with weakness ...I am a man a any men who cries to this song is a bitch and weak if you ask me so fuck off thanks .
I’d always sang this to my daughter not knowing this was about Teddy’s daughter or that Michael Jackson co-wrote this .. I cry every time I sing it just thinking about how happy she makes me in this world. Thank you! ♥️☮️
I learnt MJ was supposed to include this song in his dangerous album, but shelved the idea and Teddy gave it his group,Blackstreet and the rest is history.I am surprised only 4.2 millions have watched this great song.One of my favourites by the group.
@@williebowen2965 check your information because Michael wrote and recorded the song with the help of Teddy Riley....You have no idea of how much or little of the song Teddy wrote period! Stop trying to argue about something you don't have any knowledge of because the information out there doesn't say who wrote what, but what is out there MJ made the demo of that song so with that being said MJ could have written a major portion of that song! FYI Teddy can sing well enough to do a demo as well so based on your theory then MJ wouldn't have recorded the demo!!!
@@trinabatiste9234 You don't have to idea that Teddy Riley wrote Joy. Then presented to Michael Jackson. MIKE TURNED IT DOWN .TEDDY RILEY GAVE IT TO BLACKSTREET.
@@trinabatiste9234 He didn't write Joy. TEDDY RILEY WROTE & PRODUCE JOY. IF MIKE' WROTE JOY THEN WHY DID HE TURN IT FROM TEDDY RILEY. ANSWER THAT QUESTION EINSTEIN
@@williebowen2965 Michael and Teddy wrote it for Michael's Dangerous album but didn't include it and gave it to Riley who gave it to blackstreet. Learn something
Derrick Washington boy you Trippin this song is so beautiful and soothing what you're talking about tf if you want to give this video a thumbs down you can but I'm a give this video a thumbs-up cuz I LOVE IT done and stop hating cause you dont know what real music is this is real muaic
I dedicate this song to my four beautiful kids. One passed away and the other three are here. They mean the world to me. The marriages didn't last, but thank God I have them and my four grandkids. God bless you always. I love you Blackstreet. You give me joy.
True peace and joy can only be found in Jesus Christ. Jesus loves you more than you could ever know and He wants to give you this peace. I am sharing my best friend's story with you in hopes that you will come to know Jesus Christ and find real peace and comfort in your soul. God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

My son passed away in 2020 and my daughter is helping me get through it in ways she cannot imagine. She has three beautiful sons and two grandsons and three daughters and two granddaughters from my son I tell you my heart swells with so much love for my family. This song is just perfect. Tells you how healing agape love is and can be.
“That girl released her magic and made me love once more “ Her love picks me up like no other love before’ “ Her love keeps shining down on me”? Which god do you pray to? HE said HIMSELF that he’s no respecter of persons, how could the girl look down on the Most High God who is Higher than high. What’s the name of your pastor and where does He preach. He got you and 20 others messed uuuup. Oh noooo ! Let’s keep it for the little girl or a young couple. I promise I won’t tell nooobottay ( nobody). Your secret is safe rightyaw.😂
Just as we pray to out Father in Heaven we can pray to our Fathers who have gone to heaven. You have to believe that. You still have that connection! And someday there will be a wonderful reunion for you two.
My daughter will be 17 this year 2023 and she still brings me JOY. 17 years of black girl magic in my life!!! I love you Leilani Simone...mama's baby baby😊 (I say the "baby baby" like notorious b.i.g.)
Even when I was a kid, I remember thinking this song was beautiful. Now when I hear it, it just makes me cry. I wanna dedicate this song to my daughter if she is ever born in my life.
+MegaTwiztid15 Listening to any music (such as this should make anyone's heart melt or longing for greater emotional appetite as opposed to (90% or so of) the music that's being played today.
Hey blackstreet, my name is joel Adams, am a fan since way back 1994, from nigeria, just wanna let you all know am still here for you listen to this beautiful piece...loving it ❤💖💕🙌
Before I Let U Go is said to be the most famous track off this CD but Joy will always be my first favorite track. The Joy, Joy, Joy background is what makes this song so beautiful!!!
I think the one thing we can all agree on is that no matter how you interpret it this song is all about love pure and simple.Whether between a man and woman or the love a man feels for his daughter that's what any good songwriter strives for and I think Teddy an MJ certainly accomplished that to perfection.
Awww I had this song on my heart for a few weeks. After checking the song writers and seeing Michael Jackson as one of the writers. It makes it even more special 🥰❤️😢
Michael recorded a demo for Blackstreet of this song, Sony Don't Want to release, but the song was writed by Michael, Teddy Riley was Michael producer and producer of another artists, Michael writed 90% of his songs or demos for another artists
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. I wanted to have it in a jewelry box for my daughter. My former husband was an addict and I almost lost my daughter. We were abandoned in the hospital by him but this song radiates the true love that kept me together. ❤️
This song is dedicated to both of my precious daughters: Sabrina-17 & Tershauna-15; both of them are part of the main reason why I do what I do every day, & they're part of the air that I breathe. I love them that much:
what?? don't be fooled by the propaganda - because many still do..it's just the shift in television content and esp., with the advent of the internet and later, so much streaming content..it all makes us aware of certain things, on levels previously not advertised as much as they are now..plus, the world's population grows, exponentially, by leaps & bounds every year.
I have ALWAYS LOVED, LOVED, LOVED that song and especially the video . There isn't many songs out there that show appreciation for children, but most especially dads for their little girls . A father's love for his daughter is SO crucial to her self-esteem and there just aren't that many black men who show that kind of love for their daughters . So, I give props to the dads that DO show love EVERYDAY to their daughters, because you don't know how much they will need your love to fall back on when their hearts are broken or their being told by others that they'll never amount to anything . We've ALL seen the WRONG kind of fathers who beat their daughters for little of nothing here on TH-cam and every other social media platform, yet you rarely see fathers, especially YOUNG black fathers making time for their little girls . It doesn't take money to show them you love them, just QUALITY time and imagination . MUCH LOVE to the dads that REALLY LOVE their daughters ! 🥰
14 years ago today, my little Queen in training was born. Although I've always loved this song, having a daughter gave this song special meaning. Salute to all my fellow dads out there who realize that our daughters will always be our baby girls.
He did made a version to this song . This type in Michael Jackson and then Joy . It was just a demo he had made and also I had heard that this was promised to be on his album but decide to let Blackstreet have it.
Can't forget the day, That you walked into my life It was just the kind of thing, That was soo right on time After all that love changes, My heart had locked the door Then that gurl released her magic And made me love once more Like the warm rays of the sun her sweet love Keeps shining down on me, Oh oh, only one turned Why life around and wit one kiss she set me free She's given me joy, joy, joy That gurl she brings me joy She's given me joy, joy, joy She brings me joy Goodbye to loneliness, And so long to my heartache, Now that joy has taken over, And decided to stay Her love lifts me up, Like no other love before, With every beat of my heart, I'm holding on, hey Just look what she's done for me, Just erased all the sadness away, oh oh oh, I could never repay her debt, 'Cause she keeps loving me more and more She's given me joy, joy, joy That gurl she brings me joy She's given me joy, joy, joy She brings me joy She's given me (joy), Check one check two, Can't hold back I'm in love with you Can't hold back I'm in love with you Girl you're my joy
Jamming this in September, 2022. Dave Hollister's vocals on this song......heavenly. Teddy Riley and Blackstreet thank you for the gift of music. This was a song and a half. My best Blackstreet song till date. Pure genius.
This video and song make me tear up a little; I remember the love my father had for me...R.I.P Daddy, I'm sure he feels joy as he watches over me from heaven...
I can't watch this video without crying. When I see the guys doing all those things with their baby girls. It reminds me of me and my dad's relationship. I was a daddy's girl. I miss him so much. 😢😢
My daughter just turned 16 today. I still remember like it was yesterday, when my wife called me while I was on assignment (....same as my the day she went into labor with my son), that it was time. Both instances I turned a 45 minute drive into less than half to get to the hospital (...glad I didn't get a ticket or accident in my work truck),only to sit for almost 11 hours waiting for her to drop. The wait truly was worth it. Happy Sweet 16th to my Queen In Training.
🤔🤔I've been corrected several times regarding this topic. 50 people are saying MJ wrote it and 100 people whole heartedly believe Teddy Riley did. Let me Google this, Google knows everything...😁
"Joy" is a song by American R&B group Blackstreet. The song was written by Michael Jackson, Teddy Riley, and Tammy Lucas it was released as the fifth single for the group's self-titled debut album Blackstreet ... Producer(s): Teddy Riley Released: March 21, 1995 Recorded: 1992 (Michael Jackson Demo), 1994 (Blackstreet Version) Genre: R&B.
Written by Michael Jackson such a Peaceful Song 🎵
Yeah, I was hearing that throughout the song. Very obvious.
I never knew that.
❤ you Mikey 💘 Would be one of those ones who 😭 all dumb..😂
How did I not know that. I was thinking it had a Michael Jackson vibe. I was like, I could see him writing and singing something like this😅
I think the song evolved from Someone Put Your Hand Out

I am in music ministry, and this song is God, because God is love and love of your daughters/children is God also.

Im making a new playlist with real love songs like this one, and I'm going to get back to writing and working on non traditional melodies for my Christian songs. I'm inspired.
I dedicate this song to the man who wrote this song for Blackstreet, my childhood crush whose music I just came back to last year, the late, great, Michael Jackson. This would have been another hit for Michael in my opinion! Michael, you continue to bring me joy even though are no longer here with us. After being away from MJ for 13+ years after he passed, including the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, and enduring times of loss and other rough times,, I decided that 2022 was the year I would return to Michael's music. So after putting on "This Is It," and after hearing Michael sing again after a long time, as the song says, Michael "erased all the sadness away." God brought Michael back into my life at the right time. I'm NEVER leaving him and his music for this long EVER again! You bring me joy, Michael Joseph Jackson! Love you Michael, and miss you too! RIP!

❤ Beautiful song! I’ve just started listening to MJ again too! I’ve loved him all my life but fell away from music all together and after his passing it was even harder to listen to him but thank God I can listen to him again!
@@RobIn-fs8zj Welcome back to Michael! I'm glad you are on the same page as me!
The amount of people dedicating this song to their children is so heartwarming💗congratulations to you all
I dedicate this to my beautiful granddaughter Nyomi JOY Davis who passed away unexpectedly Wednesday March 8th, two days shy of her 1yr old birthday. ❤😪 Our real life Angel...we love you Boo Boo!!😘😘😘😘

"I send my deepest condolences to y'all 🙏🏿👼🏿💗... Ameen..."
My condolences! ❤ 😢
I'm so so sorry to hear this😟 she is now your angel for sure ♥️ May God continue to bless you and your family
How on earth could ANYONE thumbs down this video!? I got teary eyed when I dedicated this to my daughter.
James Mallory this and If I Could by Regina Bell are my love letters to my precious daughter.
James Mallory mad single moms...
Just a theory but the the "thumbs down" most likely comes from people wanting the original version of the song.Remember they slightly remixed this version with additional instruments which I think kind of takes away from the original.
Idiots. This song is beautiful
James Mallory 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
My son passed away in September 2023....this is the song he use to sing for baby girl age 3...😢..we miss him dearly.😢😢😢❤️❤️❤️
Michael made a great decision allowing Blackstreet to record Joy. It has always been my absolute favorite by Blackstreet! Makes me miss Michael all the more.❤️
MICHAEL JACKSON REJECTED THE SONG JOY. WHEN WHEN TEDDY RILEY PRESENTED IT TO HIM.
@@williebowen2965 he actually recorded a version & it didnt make the cut.. bro you acting like you scking blackstreet d😂 you in every comment doing the most with false info
@@williebowen2965 bro are you good? Youve spammed this in every reply
This Song is Beautiful
MJ really was the king of music or pop as some say when he passed the music business died with him.
MAAAAANNNNN!!!! This came out when i had my sons, but this hits so much HARDER with my 2 sweetie pie GRANDDAUGHTERS!!!! I AM SOOOOO GRATEFUL!! NANA LOVES YOU!!
Never gets old. What happened to music? Seriously - what happened.
To Ethan my son love u every day dad xxx.
+Thandi M michael jackson died thats what happened. he wrote this song.
no
Thandi M if you seen that other comment it wasn't for you
Thandi M Singers sold their souls....
Man , MJ and Teddy Riley played no games with this record
I love this song
True Also MJ Would’ve been good if he’d did that song with blackstreet or his own
He did because it was a interview of teddy riley ( the one who works on Michael Jackson 's 1991 album dangerous ) admitted he wrote and recorded for Michael in the song it was gonna be released but they end up give it to backstreet
Very nice song indeed. One of my favorite by BlackStreet
@@anthonyjohnson4964 But it does sound like MJ's lyrics and his style.
This music video is so beautiful. You can hear the composition is by MJ. This song is filled with radiance and with a melody so divine. Full of purpose.
♡
th-cam.com/video/i820F8rRyMM/w-d-xo.html
Yes full of positive purpose which is why I love it so much and the father and daughter bonding. It is just soo beautiful. If this song don't make you cry or touch your soul then something is deeply wrong with you.
💯% Pure Facts ✌️👑
TEDDY RILEY WROTE JOY. NOT MICHAEL JACKSON
2024 anyone?👀
If Levi Little never sings again, he sang this joint. One of my favorites. Simply beautiful and sweeter than sugar.
Exactly, just so dope.
@@miles8902
Teddy riley is amazing also work for exo
th-cam.com/video/yWfsla_Uh80/w-d-xo.html
No he did not write any part of this lyric. Because it's church related and it's too old of a song.
This song is for my mom who passed away two days after her bday September 3, my son who passed November 25 who bro me joy as a man to be a father, my brother who passed after my son November 28 and the woman who's been there with me through it all who I've been with for years and later I married in July.

Most definitely one of them songs I keep on repeat, the fact the Michael Jackson wrote it is crazy because I hear his voice all over this , he always made beautiful music r.i.p mj thanks blackstreet for delivering this song the right way
TEDDY RILEY WROTE JOY
@@williebowen2965 bro look it up man it was co wrote by Michael Jackson.
Teddy Riley wrote Joy.
TEDDY RILEY WROTE JOY
He didn't write Joy Teddy Riley wrote it for Michael Jackson. Mike turned it down. Then Teddy Riley gave it to Blackstreet to record.

You cannot beat this kinda music. Think this should apply to sons as well as daughters. Being a dad myself my son brings me so much joy.
That is so freaking awesome!! The love of a father determines the kind of man he will be in life and towards his wife.
I totally agree
I know right my daughters definitely are my joy 👩👧👧💞🥰
Yes. Children are such blessings. I created a video for my granddaughter graduating from kindergarten from her pic just after my daughter gave birth to her lying on her dad's chest as an infant to my daughter nursing then with her dad at 6 years old. Then finally with her standing by herself on graduation day. With JOY in the background audio. Everytime I see it it brings tears to my eyes!!!
Another reminder that God answered my prayers by giving me my baby girl. ❤️🔥🙏🏽🥰 JOY!!!
When they say BLACK men can't... We can. EVERY. TIME. #GenX
Not a dry eye in the house. Cried in 95 everytime I heard this song (no kids), got 2 princesses now and its even worse 2016 bawlin. Beautiful
I hope your a woman
+Fabulous Divo So what if they aren't? Man or woman, the music can tug on emotions that you didn't even know you had. Especially when kids are in the picture.
Thinker302 only weak men world cry not real men ....they really gay
Niki Martin no bitch it makes you wonder by stereotyping me by my username ....my sexuality has nothing to do with weakness ...I am a man a any men who cries to this song is a bitch and weak if you ask me so fuck off thanks .
Good Vibez go a away get a life no one wants u
It’s until you get a daughter, that this song hits differently ❤
Why do you got to have kids to enjoy this for?this song is ❤regardless.
WOW I did not know that Mike wrote this beautiful song!!
He didn’t.
My labor is being induced tonight. I can’t wait to hold my baby girl Joi. This is her song.
Absolutely beautiful. Fathers loving their daughters. What more can you ask for. Chills.

I’d always sang this to my daughter not knowing this was about Teddy’s daughter or that Michael Jackson co-wrote this .. I cry every time I sing it just thinking about how happy she makes me in this world.
Thank you! ♥️☮️
Wow! Songwriters: Michael Jackson / Maceo Parker / Keith Murray / George Clinton Jr. / Teddy Riley / Bootsy Collins / Erick Sermon / Tammy Lucas
This song was played over and over by me in '95. Such positivity and light emanating from it.
I played this song non stop.
Yeah, and i was the one singing it in '95
@@turninghurtintopurpose3770 Nah lol...far from it.
Me too. I played it often in 1995 after final year in highschool.🎧😍
Bro im 15 and I played this song a solid 15 times on repeat. Its a very good song
I learnt MJ was supposed to include this song in his dangerous album, but shelved the idea and Teddy gave it his group,Blackstreet and the rest is history.I am surprised only 4.2 millions have watched this great song.One of my favourites by the group.
Teddy Riley wrote Joy for Michael Jackson. Mike turned it down. Teddy Riley gave Joy to Blackstreet
@@williebowen2965 check your information because Michael wrote and recorded the song with the help of Teddy Riley....You have no idea of how much or little of the song Teddy wrote period! Stop trying to argue about something you don't have any knowledge of because the information out there doesn't say who wrote what, but what is out there MJ made the demo of that song so with that being said MJ could have written a major portion of that song! FYI Teddy can sing well enough to do a demo as well so based on your theory then MJ wouldn't have recorded the demo!!!
@@trinabatiste9234 You don't have to idea that Teddy Riley wrote Joy. Then presented to Michael Jackson. MIKE TURNED IT DOWN .TEDDY RILEY GAVE IT TO BLACKSTREET.
@@trinabatiste9234 He didn't write Joy. TEDDY RILEY WROTE & PRODUCE JOY. IF MIKE' WROTE JOY THEN WHY DID HE TURN IT FROM TEDDY RILEY. ANSWER THAT QUESTION EINSTEIN

Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey
Family Story
Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day.
My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening.
That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of
a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are.
Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you.
His Story
Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23)
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12)
He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell.
“For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price]
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)
Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today!
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
“...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b)
Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour!
“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)
Your Story
What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son.
The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6)
We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready?
“...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b)
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
“(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c)

My son passed away in 2020 and my daughter is helping me get through it in ways she cannot imagine. She has three beautiful sons and two grandsons and three daughters and two granddaughters from my son I tell you my heart swells with so much love for my family. This song is just perfect. Tells you how healing agape love is and can be.
That violin obbligato at the conclusion was stunning! Whole work brought the tears! Stunning! Joy!
Every time a lost soul returns back to the LORD,,,,this is exactly what our heavy father cries out.
I love how you interpreted the song from a spiritual persepectuve.
“That girl released her magic and made me love once more “ Her love picks me up like no other love before’ “ Her love keeps shining down on me”? Which god do you pray to? HE said HIMSELF that he’s no respecter of persons, how could the girl look down on the Most High God who is Higher than high. What’s the name of your pastor and where does He preach. He got you and 20 others messed uuuup. Oh noooo ! Let’s keep it for the little girl or a young couple. I promise I won’t tell nooobottay ( nobody). Your secret is safe rightyaw.😂
The video and the song made me so sad. Reminds me of the bond me and my dad had...R.I.P. Daddy 👼🏽😢😢
His mighty proud of you.fasho
Me too
Yes, It such a beautiful, but sad song...
Just as we pray to out Father in Heaven we can pray to our Fathers who have gone to heaven. You have to believe that. You still have that connection! And someday there will be a wonderful reunion for you two.
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏽
This song brings back those memories of long ago! 🌹

That is truly a beautiful Blessing ❤❤❤
I feeeeeel your JOY!!! 🇺🇸✝️🇺🇸
Even when I was a kid, I remember thinking this song was beautiful. Now when I hear it, it just makes me cry. I wanna dedicate this song to my daughter if she is ever born in my life.
MegaTwiztid15 i feel the same.. thinking of naming my daughter Joy...
+MegaTwiztid15 Listening to any music (such as this should make anyone's heart melt or longing for greater emotional appetite as opposed to (90% or so of) the music that's being played today.
Jasmaine Barthelemy You should. That's a beautiful name.
RIP Michael Jackson and thank you for this beautiful classic 😔😔😔😔😔😔💖
JOY JOY JOYYYYYYY!! Classic!! Teddy Riley was a musical genius!!! 90s=JOY!!
Michael Jackson and him did this song darling
But this my favorite by them
Mechacelzi I knew that darling!!
Mechacelzi one of mine too!
***** my oldest sister had this LP
Hey blackstreet, my name is joel Adams, am a fan since way back 1994, from nigeria, just wanna let you all know am still here for you listen to this beautiful piece...loving it ❤💖💕🙌
One of the most beautiful love songs. Teddy Riley and Micheal Jackson amazing collaboration.
And Blackstreet!!! 👌🏾
Agree.
I love this song!!! One of my favorite songs by Blackstreet!!! I didn't Michael Jackson wrote this song!!!
Pat's Videos Is true, Jackson wrote this song in 1990
for dangerous
Awesome!!!
I miss MJ so much!!!
Yes and MJ thought the song wasn't playing into the edge of his album. He and Teddy traded songs....
I didn't know that. Interesting.
Before I Let U Go is said to be the most famous track off this CD but Joy will always be my first favorite track. The Joy, Joy, Joy background is what makes this song so beautiful!!!
This song very underrated.
To my daughter born on January 28th 2023 in Stockton CA .Lots of Love!
This song is so pretty....these guys have great voices...
yall better recognise the writer and producer of this track, only and only MR MICHAEL JACKSON
can't wait for his demo version to be released
Didn't Teddy Say He Was Gonna Give It To The Estate???
Prince Ibrahim yea I think that
When's The Next Album Gonna Come Out???
No idea
I Really Wanna Hear MJ's Version Of This
I think the one thing we can all agree on is that no matter how you interpret it this song is all about love pure and simple.Whether between a man and woman or the love a man feels for his daughter that's what any good songwriter strives for and I think Teddy an MJ certainly accomplished that to perfection.
I even sing it to God.
The batterywithn0t0r9
MIchael Jackson wrote this and sang some background as well !
Yes! 😊
Love this song miss him deary
I had no idea he wrote this, but now that you say that... it sounds exactly like a song ge would have written!
He did?
I believe that. If Michael Jackson had anything to do with a song, dancing or a video, it's going to be amazing. TRUST!!!!
Just timeless...simply TIMELESS ❤
Awww I had this song on my heart for a few weeks. After checking the song writers and seeing Michael Jackson as one of the writers. It makes it even more special 🥰❤️😢
Teddy Riley wrote Joy
IF MICHAEL JACKSON CO- WROTE JOY. THEN WHY DID HE REJECTED IT TO RECORD IT.
Michael recorded a demo for Blackstreet of this song, Sony Don't Want to release, but the song was writed by Michael, Teddy Riley was Michael producer and producer of another artists, Michael writed 90% of his songs or demos for another artists
rip to real R&B u are missed....
Treece Honorable follow and subscribe on my TH-cam Channel for more Old Skool music. Thanks
thanks appreciate it u got a lot of music I forgot
Treece Honorable So so sad😢😢😢
Smh seriously tho
😞😞😞😞 smh
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. I wanted to have it in a jewelry box for my daughter. My former husband was an addict and I almost lost my daughter. We were abandoned in the hospital by him but this song radiates the true love that kept me together. ❤️
Listen to coko sunshine. Both those songs I hope will continue to be a comfort and empowering to you and your baby 🥰
This song is dedicated to both of my precious daughters: Sabrina-17 & Tershauna-15; both of them are part of the main reason why I do what I do every day, & they're part of the air that I breathe. I love them that much:
When Black men Celebrated Black Daughters.
This song always make me remember when my daughter was born....I came here to learn it again I haven't played it in years.
We still do. Anytime I need a pick me up I can come to this song and it always leaves me better than I was before
You didnt have to say black but ok
Amen
what?? don't be fooled by the propaganda - because many still do..it's just the shift in television content and esp., with the advent of the internet and later, so much streaming content..it all makes us aware of certain things, on levels previously not advertised as much as they are now..plus, the world's population grows, exponentially, by leaps & bounds every year.
I have ALWAYS LOVED, LOVED, LOVED that song and especially the video . There isn't many songs out there that show appreciation for children, but most especially dads for their little girls . A father's love for his daughter is SO crucial to her self-esteem and there just aren't that many black men who show that kind of love for their daughters . So, I give props to the dads that DO show love EVERYDAY to their daughters, because you don't know how much they will need your love to fall back on when their hearts are broken or their being told by others that they'll never amount to anything . We've ALL seen the WRONG kind of fathers who beat their daughters for little of nothing here on TH-cam and every other social media platform, yet you rarely see fathers, especially YOUNG black fathers making time for their little girls . It doesn't take money to show them you love them, just QUALITY time and imagination . MUCH LOVE to the dads that REALLY LOVE their daughters ! 🥰
Pure nostalgia! I miss this era
I agree and me too😍😍😍
Abigail Valenti yes lawd
Me Three! Magical!
Me2
one of my all time favorite songs. it has MJ written all over it! just gorgeous
14 years ago today, my little Queen in training was born. Although I've always loved this song, having a daughter gave this song special meaning. Salute to all my fellow dads out there who realize that our daughters will always be our baby girls.
I had no idea Michael Jackson wrote this. It sounds like something he'd sing
And indeed he did, there's a recorded version of him singing this song, bt it's not gonna be released until the Dangerous 25th anniversary!!!
He did made a version to this song . This type in Michael Jackson and then Joy . It was just a demo he had made and also I had heard that this was promised to be on his album but decide to let Blackstreet have it.
Do you know when that's gonna be released? It'd be dope 2 hear him sing this
with Teddy Riley and Tammy Lucas
if you listen closely you can hear MJ's vocals in the hook
Why can't I leave and stop loving the 90's fuck some of the best times on earth in my opinion
The only song from a BLACK FATHER TO HIS PRECIOUS DAUGHTER
2023 and this song still as the same if not more quality in every way ! Blessings to all the talented members of this Group!❤🙏🏽
Can't forget the day,
That you walked into my life
It was just the kind of thing,
That was soo right on time
After all that love changes,
My heart had locked the door
Then that gurl released her magic
And made me love once more
Like the warm rays of the sun her sweet love
Keeps shining down on me,
Oh oh, only one turned
Why life around and wit one kiss she set me free
She's given me joy, joy, joy
That gurl she brings me joy
She's given me joy, joy, joy
She brings me joy
Goodbye to loneliness,
And so long to my heartache,
Now that joy has taken over,
And decided to stay
Her love lifts me up,
Like no other love before,
With every beat of my heart,
I'm holding on, hey
Just look what she's done for me,
Just erased all the sadness away, oh oh oh,
I could never repay her debt,
'Cause she keeps loving me more and more
She's given me joy, joy, joy
That gurl she brings me joy
She's given me joy, joy, joy
She brings me joy
She's given me (joy),
Check one check two,
Can't hold back I'm in love with you
Can't hold back I'm in love with you
Girl you're my joy
Jamming this in September, 2022. Dave Hollister's vocals on this song......heavenly. Teddy Riley and Blackstreet thank you for the gift of music. This was a song and a half. My best Blackstreet song till date. Pure genius.
Levi Little is lead vocalist on this very beautiful song.
This video and song make me tear up a little; I remember the love my father had for me...R.I.P Daddy, I'm sure he feels joy as he watches over me from heaven...
I love this song it's my favorite song they really can sing
Never knew this was a Blackstreet song. Always smiled when I heard it. The video is just icing!
This mans voice. Brings me joy. His tenor is smooth.love it
That's levi little bro no doubt
I can't watch this video without crying. When I see the guys doing all those things with their baby girls. It reminds me of me and my dad's relationship. I was a daddy's girl. I miss him so much. 😢😢
This song was in my head, those violin strings are siicccck 😍😍😍😍😍
Word!!!! I wanna play the the piano, guitar, and violin now more than ever! 🙃
YASSSS! That string section is ridiculous! That violinist at the end? Nothin' but 🔥
I can hear Michael ALL over this....
Tony Turner IKR!!! How can you not
ikr
+Tony Turner Well he did help write it
Totally agree
+Tony Turner Mike never recorded this song
" THATS REAL LOVE FOR YOUR CHILD!!!!" "THAT SONG MAKES WEAK!!!!"
My daughter just turned 16 today. I still remember like it was yesterday, when my wife called me while I was on assignment (....same as my the day she went into labor with my son), that it was time. Both instances I turned a 45 minute drive into less than half to get to the hospital (...glad I didn't get a ticket or accident in my work truck),only to sit for almost 11 hours waiting for her to drop. The wait truly was worth it. Happy Sweet 16th to my Queen In Training.
I can just close my eyes and get lost in this song. (Written by the late great Michael Jackson.)
The late and for ALWAYS great!!
🤔🤔I've been corrected several times regarding this topic. 50 people are saying MJ wrote it and 100 people whole heartedly believe Teddy Riley did. Let me Google this, Google knows everything...😁
TEDDY RILEY WROTE JOY NOT Michael Jackson
Close your eyes and Think Teddy Riley.Not Michael Jackson
@@williebowen2965, r u willing to consider that both of them had a role in writing it?
4:27-4:53-That violin is sweet and wraps it up nicely!!
For those of us who experienced love and to be loved in return.
This song reminds me of that. I feel real happy ever time I hear it.
