I'm from Brazil and I listened this version before listening the original brazilian song. It's a great song. Great voices. It reminds me of a good time. I miss 90s so bad! My dad used to put this album on every little trip we had at 90s. Good song. Good times.
VH-1's Sunday Brunch, A place to see Jazz and New Age videos. It didn't last long, but it made for some nice Sunday mornings. First place I saw videos by Manhattan Transfer, Enya and The Rippingtons.
I remember *"Sunday Brunch".* It was my favourite show on VH-1. It's a damn shame that it wasn't on the air. It was what made VH-1 great, the variety of music they played.
Oh yes Manhattan Transfer I love this song. I will never forget it was 1988 I was 20 yrs young honey and It was MTV where I first saw it and it was a hit. It was the best of times to be a young adult. This song and a lot of other songs from this time still warms my heart.
Great song ! Knew of Manhattan Tranfer since the late 70s . I bought this album when Soul Food to Go was released. It was played on an easy listening pop radio station at the time . Very catchy and uplifting
Indisputably way, way superior performance and talent in comparison to many, many other groups and bands of today (14.10.2020). Regards, Horatio Nelson.
The ache from what was and what could have been is dulled a bit when an artist brings something lovely to life, gives it breath, and animates it for our enlightenment. That song is one of those examples; I was in the middle of a horrible relationship dissolution and this song was the one thing that made me smile. Blessings to all, and may Tim Hauser rest in peace.
What I like, besides the Manhattan Transfer singing this song, is the video. I love how someone made an animated version of themselves singing the song. genius. :)
I'll never forget this song while I'm on this earth. I was in one of the darkest places in my life. This song was the only one that made me feel a fleeting hope until Jesus saved me! Still makes me happy!
probably one of my top 5 songs ever. pure magic! I saw the manhattan transfer 4 times in concert. and they are real nice! I still have my signed t shirt from the brazil concert circa 1988
I was on an America West airplane that got stuck on the runway for 45 minutes and they played this video - and nothing else - over and over again while we were grounded.
Absolutely love this song, puts me in a good mood every time I hear it and by one of the BEST vocal groups ever. If your foot isn't tapping listening to this fantastic arrangement, your heart is not beating...just plain fabulous.
One of the most innovative a capella groups of our time who created some sweet music indeed...A big round of applause to Tim Hauser, Alan Paul, Cheryl Bentene and Janis Siegel, known collectively as Manhattan Transfer...
Desde hace años escucho esta cancion y no me canso, es un auténtico placer escuchar esas armonías vocales con una melodia absolutamente arrebatadora. Thanks for post this video, really great song and such a powerfull vocals armonies
back in 1994 cupids arrows missed their target until i listened to soul food to go and heard: do you believe in chance instead of do you believe in jazz. well the former encouraged me to talk up my co-worker soon her and i where dating which makes this song so much more special even though i know the true lyrics. thank you manhattan transfer you are the best.
so good that it drives me to tears.
I don't know if it's just me, but this song puts me in a really good mood
💖💕💖 THANK GOD FOR D'JAVON OF BRAZIL FOR WRITING THIS ONE WHEN STILL EARLY 20'S
me too.
Everytime!!!
Always!
Your not alone🕺😃
From age 10 to now this song has never ever gotten old. Takes me back to childhood every time I hear it. Timeless classic personified.
1987 was a very good year for jazz music
Me too!!!
I was 16 when this song came out and I still love it!
Still my favorite vocalists nearly 50 years after I bought their first album! This song makes me filled with joy...
I'm from Brazil and I listened this version before listening the original brazilian song. It's a great song. Great voices. It reminds me of a good time. I miss 90s so bad! My dad used to put this album on every little trip we had at 90s. Good song. Good times.
A joyful song that can reduce one to tears. Masterpiece.
I used to see this video on VH1 back in the 80s..those were warm wonderful days...I really miss life back then..

Me too, remember it on VH-1 Sunday Brunch. Back in 1988.

Since I was a kid this has been one of my favorite songs. Brings back memories .
The memories this song brings back.... the soundtrack of more relaxed times...
This group was soooooo awesome. I love the Manhattan Transfer!!!!!
Goodbye Tim Hauser. The Manhattan Transfer won't be the same without you. I'm glad I got to see you and the rest of the group in concert three times.
RIP, Tim Hauser.
One of the best and a song that deserves a lot more attention. Stunner.
Agree but the original son is 'Sina,' by the Brazilian singer & composer Djavan.
I was 4 years old when this came out, and even back then, this song absolutely mesmerized me. It still does. Just utterly exquisite.
Oh yes Manhattan Transfer I love this song. I will never forget it was 1988 I was 20 yrs young honey and It was MTV where I first saw it and it was a hit. It was the best of times to be a young adult. This song and a lot of other songs from this time still warms my heart.
Saw this on one of my dad’s tapes he recorded from VH1. If time machines existed I would take a trip back to the 80s. Seemed like an interesting time.
one way ticket for me please
We'll miss your genius arrangements, Tim. I know you know your Hip Hop never stop.
Great tune. Reminds me of happier times.
The most feel good song ever. I love it more every time I hear it
When life was sooooooo wonderful.
Janis Segal's launch-pad. One of THE premier vocal harmony groups!👍

You look nice do you believe in jazz?
I love their music. I have seen them twice in concert. Amazing.
This was way ahead of its time. The video and song.
This was what black people would call "Grown Folks Music" and that's a big compliment. And I was grooving this when I was 16(maybe 14?)
FAMILIA... JAZZ IS THE MUSIC OF LIFE ✨️ ❤🙏❤
love how they shaped the lyrics to sound like the original song from Djavan
1987 wow ! Those were happy years...
You can feel the brazilian musical feeling (Djavan style).
absolutely amazing iconic immaculate vibes
Absolutely amazing vibes right here. Timeless video and song, will never be out of style.
@@fuosdi64 could not agree more man
This video was how I was introduced to them.
Legend ❤❤❤
Das erste Mal seit 30 Jahren gehört, und kann den Text noch 👍👍😁
Today, suddenly, I remenbered this song and I don't know why, but it made my day a little more easy and happy.
GREAT CD when they sold CD's ....every track. Great song. Silly video. Makes you happy on a sunny Friday after work.....
Darn, WE were young then 😊😊😇😇. Manhattan TRANSFER came out, and I LOVED the MESSAGE.
Ahhhh to be 10yrs old again I loved this video and song as a kid

They are so unique. They should live forever.
Preciosa canción...voces y música en perfecta harmonía
A Djavan song, a great sucess in Brazil, in a english version of Manhattan Transfer...
Great song ! Knew of Manhattan Tranfer since the late 70s .
I bought this album when Soul Food to Go was released. It was played on an easy listening pop radio station at the time . Very catchy and uplifting
Makes one feel good, doesn't it? Life is beautiful. I love it.
That one held note over two measures...DO YOU BELIEVE IN JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZ?
Love, love, love Manhattan Transfer the best vocals ever. And Soul Food To Go is still the jam.
mein Vater hat das Lied immer mit mir zusammen angehört, einfach Nostalgie!!!
I remember seeing this when it first was aired. I am telling on myself now!!!
+TJ “Crochetwoman” N This is how I first heard of them.
One of the best american band
Indisputably way, way superior performance and talent in comparison to many, many other groups and bands of today (14.10.2020). Regards, Horatio Nelson.
Memories, we used too watch this on VH1 years ago. Made my day seeing this again and thank you Lisa for the reminder

The sang so beautifully. Miss the 80s better music better people sorry. Lovely. I liked me better too.
What I like, besides the Manhattan Transfer singing this song, is the video. I love how someone made an animated version of themselves singing the song. genius. :)

I'll never forget this song while I'm on this earth. I was in one of the darkest places in my life. This song was the only one that made me feel a fleeting hope until Jesus saved me! Still makes me happy!
When i first heard this song it made me want more of them and it made me a huge MT fan. and back then i had a huge crush on Janis :)
I love this song, and I love that because of the California Raisins and the hamburger in Better Off Dead, this is the video!
Awesome vibe to this song,still a timeless classic
Such a cute lovable song
Best 4 part scat ever!
Rest In Peace Tim!

I saw them in concert in Chicago in 87. It was a spiritual experience.
I have never seen before i like this also thanks.😊
I was on an America West airplane that got stuck on the runway for 45 minutes and they played this video - and nothing else - over and over again while we were grounded.
I miss groups like this, such wonderful melodies.😥
This group is so amazing with their vocal talents.. I've seen them twice in concert and they were both flawless....

This was a BET Video LP, Video Vibrations, Video Soul classic
wow thank you so much for this, I never thought this was still around... I used to watch this on a video jukebox
Que versão maravilhosa
Fun Fact: When this album came out in the late 80's this was the only MT video to be played on MTV.
How's that?
MTV started 84?
Ahhh sorry
I got it wrong.
Yes maybe the only MT video
They didn't have "Ray's Rockhouse" on rotation in 1985?
Love this song brings back only good childhood memories. Miss the ones who are no longer here that had me listening to this when I was a jit
I first saw this video on MTV in 1988
They were the greatest!!!
Absolutely love this song, puts me in a good mood every time I hear it and by one of the BEST vocal groups ever. If your foot isn't tapping listening to this fantastic arrangement, your heart is not beating...just plain fabulous.
such a creative way to arrange a song, with those figures. Great. And the combination of instrumentals and voices - just great!
The best Song of my life...
