I am one the luckiest drummers on the face of the planet. I toured the world for 5 years with this group seeing all sides of the all cultures. They treated me like family all the time and I'm extremely humbled and greatful god brough us togather to share the magic of music. RIP Lillian LOpez.
8 December 2023. Cape Town. South Africa. It's Friday morning. I'm 43. Singing this whilst painting. Had to come here to listen. Thank you for the music! Brilliant music! That still makes every inch of your body move!
Sento questa splendida musica a distanza di 40 anni!!! Mi mancava questo pezzo e oggi lo ritrovo nonostante il tempo è sempre tra le migliori musiche disco mi fa venire nostalgia e brividi❤
I’m here brother listening to this gem got volume cranked right up my neighbours must love this song they haven’t been round to tell me to turn it down wouldn’t matter it would fall on deaf ears anyway 😂😂😂😂
Classic Soul. What a lot of people dont know is that , the bridge break down sung from 2:30 mins is actually sung in Yoruba. A Nigerian language. The language is spoken by Nigerians who originate from South West Nigeria. They are saying "awa o ma rantin, iran ti ile o ise dale baba awa" translates as "We will always remember our ancestors home. The foundational Roots of our fore-fathers" ...just to name drop, Prominent celebs with Yoruba ancestory include: Sade Adu ( (the artist), Seal ( the Artist ) , Akheem Olajuwon ( ex NBA star ) , Fela ( late Artist ) , Wole Soyinka ( Poet ) John Boyega ( Actor) David Oyelowo ( Actor ) Wale ( rapper ) ....the list goes on !!!
Judgement is coming, do you wonder why ??? One Sunday morning in June, 1933, God gave seven major continuous visions to His prophet William Marrion Branham THE SEVENTH VISION. “The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America.” Russia now has a missile which can destroy a nation the size of France or a state the size of Texas, destruction is one button push away. th-cam.com/video/DNfn17y7iNo/w-d-xo.html The Lord prophesied that He would send a prophet at this time. Malachi 4:5. Matthew 17:11 Revelation 10:7. God has raised the dead on FIVE occasions through His chosen vessel. God was photographed SIX times, (Veiled in the form of the Pillar of Fire) with His prophet. The, “Elijah anointing,” (Concerning the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ) is used “TWICE.” The first time 2,000 years ago, when God sent John the Baptist, then again in this day. At each, “Coming of the Lord,” there is an Elijah prophet who precedes that, “Coming.” Jesus said concerning John the Baptist. Matthew 3:3. For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Elijah, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. John, “Prepared the way for the Lord,” John did NOT “Restore anything,” as that which would need to be restored, (The full understanding of the whole Bible,) had not yet been given. This scripture concerns the Elijah prophet for, “THIS DAY.” Matthew 17:11. And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elijah truly shall FIRST COME, and RESTORE all things. God has fulfilled the above scripture in THIS DAY. This scripture also predicts the Elijah prophet for “This day”..... Malachi 4:5. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. This Elijah prophet comes just before, “The coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord,” which happens in this day. We are now living in the last days, God has kept His word and sent that prophet, thereby “Restoring” His word to His Bride. These and other “Prophetical scriptures” fulfilled: Malachi 4:5. Matthew 17:11. Revelation 10:7. Revelation 3:14. Revelation 1:16 - 20. Revelation 2:1. Revelation 3:1.

Going back to my roots instantly transports me back the early 80's when music was music and not just noise. Odyssey were a very talented group and had they own unique style which still sounds amazing today.
Oh my God, what memories of this beautiful time. Carefree and happy youth. Glad to have lived it. I love "Going back to my roots". Really no regrets, when I see what's happening now... RIP Lillian (fu.. cancer) we don't forget you. Thank you for these wonderful moments 🎶🎵🎶🕺💃. My children love this song "WoW dad, it makes you smile and it makes you want to dance, it's great"... Be happy life is short!
I’m 57 love every spectre of music 1st love Motown and reggae but this was first music worm stuck in head and stayed ever since and thank you odyssey for setting me on my musical journey 🙏🏿🎶😘
This is one of the best musics that I heard in all my life, very very good times, greattings from Brazil-(Ma) Specially to the people that loves the dance music.
Wow I just happened to click on this song today not knowing what it was. Thanks so much as it brought back memories of my childhood. I remember this as one of my favorites back in the 70's but never knew the name of the song or the artist. As I said, thanks again Dancerclassics.
Going back to my... youth! Brings back memories of my first holiday without parents, in Spain with classmates! All disco's played this tune, unforgettable sweet days back then!
Bom dia amigos, estou ouvindo esse clássico de 82 sob lágrimas nos olhos por sentir que o tempo passou e não se ouve mais músicas com essas belas melodias!
The 70 ties are better by far disco, funk, dance, soul.... The emergence of prominent black people bands or solo artists and divas..... there are so many, it would take too long to name them.
So glad i got to see Odyssey live .. RIP Lillian Lopez the lead vocalist .. I love you all my favourite band of all time .. Will listen to your songs while ever i still breathe ...
Real Good Disco Rhythm! It's time to "Boogie Down" with Odyssey one of New York's finest Disco Acts. This track is as good as "Native New Yorker", another great hit by the same group. Don't you wish that you had a "Time Machine" so you could travel back in time to the Disco Years of the '70s & '80s?! I really am dying to go back to a "Better, Friendly, Uncomplicated" time of "Peace & Love".
This group of music is super vvonderful that s the music i like to listen every day. Vvhen i listen to this music i feel myself in the earlu 80 s it s really a very good music its not just a noise that s vvhy i m very happy yo listen to this nice and so talented and besutiful group i m so lucky to have knovv n this group thanks to them
In 100 years from now people will still be talking about how great this music is, long after so many of todays modern acts have been confined to the dustheap of history!! Legends!
Not just the muscle in your body, it's another feeling in your head. A feeling which is so good, your head looks at your feet and we have a laugh with Each other. Great tune xxx
Gregory T Barrett..God bless you ..you are above and beyond talented..I absolutely loved this band..so i know if you were part odyssey..you were multi -talented..beautiful vocal and master instruments ..drums created that beauty ..thank you xx

I had the honer of meeting this fab group when they came to promote this great song at a night club I was working in, just a class act and great songs, one of the great bands of the time, fantastic.
As a gay, white 16-year-old, I used to sing this song (including the words in Yoruba, having shown some promise in French), fancying myself to have roots in the baking African savannah, whereas in reality my "roots" lay in the maternity wing of Chorley hospital in Lancashire one August Friday lunchtime in 1965.
🎶Zipping up my boots, going back to my roots yeah, the place of my birth, back down to earth🎵"abawo wa ya ati ayti yeo a shago lago bawọ wa". 🎶(We are afraid and what we are going to do with us). Zipping up my boots, going back to my roots yeah...🎶🎵
Listening August 2024. This clip has spectacular audio mixing! I put my music through some very fussy audio filters and if there's a flaw in the audio, I hear it! None in this whatsoever and the stereo imaging is gorgeous!
I am one the luckiest drummers on the face of the planet. I toured the world for 5 years with this group seeing all sides of the all cultures. They treated me like family all the time and I'm extremely humbled and greatful god brough us togather to share the magic of music. RIP Lillian LOpez.

Bom dia amigos, estou ouvindo esse clássico de 82 sob lágrimas nos olhos por sentir que o tempo passou e não se ouve mais músicas com essas belas melodias!
Lo Maximo La mejor epoca
That rhythm, wow it makes your cells to dance.
Esta música é dum tempo em que os jovens e seus pais tinham o mesmo gosto musical... Saudades das décadas 70/80/90 ... Grandes recordações!
The 80s was THE decade to be alive.
The 70 ties are better by far disco, funk, dance, soul.... The emergence of prominent black people bands or solo artists and divas..... there are so many, it would take too long to name them.
Surely!!!❤❤❤❤
Lucky you, Gregory T Barret. I'm 54 and still love disco music.
So glad i got to see Odyssey live .. RIP Lillian Lopez the lead vocalist .. I love you all my favourite band of all time .. Will listen to your songs while ever i still breathe ...

As a gay, white 16-year-old, I used to sing this song (including the words in Yoruba, having shown some promise in French), fancying myself to have roots in the baking African savannah, whereas in reality my "roots" lay in the maternity wing of Chorley hospital in Lancashire one August Friday lunchtime in 1965.
🎶Zipping up my boots, going back to my roots yeah, the place of my birth, back down to earth🎵"abawo wa ya ati ayti yeo a shago lago bawọ wa". 🎶(We are afraid and what we are going to do with us). Zipping up my boots, going back to my roots yeah...🎶🎵
Listening August 2024. This clip has spectacular audio mixing! I put my music through some very fussy audio filters and if there's a flaw in the audio, I hear it! None in this whatsoever and the stereo imaging is gorgeous!
This song filled the dance floor no problem.
Lovely group and song back in the days as a kid 1981😇🎼🎶🎵🎹🎸🎤💎
pure soul... Black and back 70' 80' 90'....
