Great mix could of gone on for hours 63 now going on 16 makes me sad for the young ones today having to listen to the rubbish touted as music these days this was class
I'm now 76yrs old and lucky to have been young in the best musical era of the 60's, Tamla Motown, Stax, Atlantic, Chess was where the top tunes where, thankgod we have TH-cam to reminisce of good times
Age is just a number, enjoy , I'm older than you and this record still makes me want to jump up and dance like it did when I was a teenager, I was a wallflower but this song would bring me to life, when I leave this earth this is what I would like played on my departure. Be happy i am and I hope I meet up with these amazing guys next time around.❤ ❤
I'm 70 now..and i ask myself, where have all these wonderful and memorable years gone? I remember this and many oldies I used to sing thing aloud..when I first fell in 🥰 love
You said it John! I'm the same as you. Things are so surreal now. Most music is so ugly and vulgar I cringe when I hear it. I keep thinking of the Peggy Lee song from 1969--"Is that all there is"-- kind of sums it all up for me.
I am a "girl of 26"...I understand, completely. I have loved MOTOWN from the time I heard or found out - what a MOTOWN was ! lol Still love their old-school music over most of the newer crap being played NOW !

No. Don't say that. IF, we get a grip on our current generation and TEACH them the fundamentals, the virtues of love and respect again and a bit-or- two of history, maybe we can bring this sound back. I play this song and you can't stop the kids from dancing and asking, "who is this? A lot of them know Ronald Isley from the "R.Kelly" generation but not from his association with Motown or Jimi Hendrix. These are "The Isley Brothers". Do our kids know of a young pianist that sat in with the band for some gigs over in England. A young man later known as Elton John. As Bernie Mac said "we the punk- ass parents" if we let our kids go the wrong way while we suppose to be teaching them. I know what Bernie was saying, but it's also a fact that you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him do the backstroke. If they drive off a cliff after that, well, that's on them. I simply ask the younger generation, what kind of music would you play if yo' mama was next to you in the car? We can only ask the question. From the answer, our work continues.
Much respect back to you. You have impeccable taste and a heart that dances to the beat and sings along to the truth. Your appreciation is the future of this performance; I won't be around forever to make people listen and love it.
I'm 25. I've listened to this since my senior year of high school.. 8 years now. I even listened to this before then thinking it was modern to listen to it.
Abi, I used to lay in bed on Saturday's and turn on the radio and listen to the music. I can't do that anymore, because there is NO MUSIC on the radio anymore from end to end on the dial! It is SHIT, adds, endless stupid talk, and more SHIT! And this is coming from a man who still lives in MOTOWN!
GOBLUEADAM I'm glad you never gave up on Detroit The music culture It'd been battered bruised dragged whatever Motown Music changed the American culture and influenced the planet Detroit was everything not so long ago I hope it rises again The motor city It's still has a haunting beauty that can't be defined
I love when he sings “But if you leave me a hundred times a hundred times I’ll take you back “..Now that’s love ❤️!! The Isley Brothers are one of the BEST groups ever to come out. Ronald Isley’s distinctive voice can never ever be duplicated. He is truly truly one of a kind. I love you Ronald Isley!
I hope you are related because I think the I B's are way underrated and loved and I wish we could discover how much they did for Jimi's playing and showmanship. I'm sure it was mountains.
The golden era of Motown! The Supremes,The Temptations, The Marvalettes,Marvin Gaye, etc. All great. Still great after 50 years! Classy,coordinated movements, great melodies and lyrics..
Our youth is the most magical time of our lives. Sadly, it is mostly wasted, for being young, most of us (not all) don’t understand just how precious our youth is or how fateful our choices are. And that however much we may do in future to mitigate some poor, rash or immature choices, we never get the time back. That’s why it is important that we try to guide our own young (children, nephews and nieces, grandchildren etc) with as much wisdom as we can. But will we be anymore successful with them than our own parents and respected elders were with us? Ah, the eternal cycle of life …
No words. The music from the Motown family. I must have listened to this for the last 3 hours straight, just listening to what I didn't hear prior. Motown
Because a massive amount of folks are still visiting this video - which is one of the six mosogotam tracks with more than 5M (5000) views - and the fact that there have been no new videos uploaded in four years, this is a courtesy post to let you know that the owner of this channel, mosogotam, whose real name is John Perrone, sadly passed away from COVID-19 on April 5th, 2020 - tragically, he was one of the very early victims of the virus. John was an absolute creative genius for this and all the other wonderful tracks he created! While his death at 70 is a tragedy and we won't get any new productions from him, he still managed to leave us with a goldmine of material to enjoy for years to come - what a gift! John, may you rest in peace.
This brings tears to my eyes when i remember growing up in the 60s and 70s. There will NEVER EVER BE ENTERTAINERS AND SONGS LIKE THESE EVER AGAIN..!!! SO GRATEFUL TO FATHER GOD FOR THOSE YEARS!!!!🙏🙏🙏💕💖💖
@@roybarwick3452 ..................... Eleanor Reyes appears to be talking more about her gratefulness to God for being alive during those days when this music was fresh to the ear, and less about the sources of the talents of the performers . . . at least in my opinion.
For dam sure. After the 60s black folk started go all natural. From snatches fros on their heads hair everywhere. Miss the days when black folk would straighten their hair and smile and not complain. Only dress up and entertain!! Now all black folk do is complain!!! They use to be hard workers!!! Now... psssshhhhh forget it!!!
I was introduced to Soul and Motown in the 60's. I had never met a black person being from a small place in the North of England, but they were my heroes. I used to travel to a venue (Highland Room, Mecca, Blackpool) aged 15 and managed to get in although I don't remember looking 18. I lived for those nights. I am now on my own and locked down with this modern day plague, and listening to my heroes keeps me sane, long may this music thrive.
The 60's - best of times. I lived within broadcast distance of Detroit/Windsor in a very small town in Canada and was lucky to be able to listen to it at night. It still sounds like home to me. Cheers.
@@robertw9437 They were on MOTOWN.....in 1970 they had a hit called It's A SHAME...written and produced by STEVIE WONDER...they left MOTOWN and moved to ATLANTIC where they found GREAT success ..
As a 15-year-old going to a dance hall for the first time, hearing this and being taken over by the urge to dance, I am truly grateful to the Isley Brothers and the Mecca Ballroom Motown Night, Bradford :)
Don't ever forget it or put it behind you : this track will always get your heart and your throat and your feet : feel, dance, groove. Ever and always, let it matter.
Sorry you guys missed this era, if you guys listen hard enough, you'll realize that to some of us growing old not too bad, if we listen we're young again, this music never old, it's only years not tears
OMG You just hit a homerun with those comments TRUE DAT I was so lucky to be born to experience that awesome era and some AMEN! I'm a ode skool junkie can't have it no other way 4REAL!! I will always have ode skool music in my blood 4EVER!!!Still listenin how about December 21 2019
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music🎶 today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
+Joe leblanc That's why I'm so glad I grew up with this music. We called it sweet soul music. We lost when unknowns began calling our music rock not roll.
Tears ..... I got tears in my eyes, hearing this fabulous, wonderful, fantastic, perfect performance again after oh-so-many years of Life and love and (sometimes) loss. This is a sincerely joyful noise. The best ever and always.
This has been my number 1 song for as long as this 64 yr old can remember … it just has everything the perfect pop song should have - hope, joy, hurt, longing, melody, truly great vocals, arrangement … it’s just too short as an original so praise be to mosogotam for this mix.
Yes. Mosogotam has enriched us beyond all our expectations with this cut. Joy, regret, youthful hope and grownup wistful remembrance. Aren't we lucky to recognize the wonder???
I love this version. I grew up on this stuff on my Dad's Wurlitzer Jukebox in Ollies Restaurant back in the 1950s to 1974 in Jamaica Plain Massachusetts. I am all wound up with joy and tears, this would have been my Dad's Birthday. Dad has been in Heaven the past 50 years, but his spirit lives on in Facebook with all the people who knew him and admired him from way back. Makes a Son Proud.
The intro is astonishingly remarkable. An amazing group with IMPECCABLE VOCALS. The Isley Brothers needs no introduction!! I’m still here on this day Sunday July 31,2022. Here’s hoping that everyone is doing great and in the best of HEALTH. Peace - Love - and Happiness To Everyone!! Have yourselves a PHENOMENAL DAY FOLKS!!
Still listening to this great music and I am 72. Saw these groups in person 48 years ago when i was a young teen, and I went crazy for them. Murray The K Shows at the Brooklyn Fox Theater where I first saw The Temps do -The Way You Do TheThings You Do- oh, I was ‘in music heaven’ , was hooked and still love them all and their voices and dancing. Ron Isley with Rod Stewart are awesome in duet of This Old Heart of Mine.

I'm in Lockdown in the UK. I love listening to this great music. In my early 70s and fit and young at heart, you can't beat this vibrant beat and great melody. Thank you Motown and Thank You USA for giving the world this great music, not the hate and shameful demonstrations we see on the TV.
Cliff, l hope you're staying safe. Be well and dance in the moonlight to this awesome track...l will do the same, hoping our old hearts can find some comfort in these hard times. Love and peace from the States, and pray for us on 11.3.20...gotta clean a certain white house...
I tell you what this means everything to all of us!
Love Motown , grew up listening to it , spend hours listening to it on my own . So many memories of my mum from this music , always makes me feel close to her since she passed ❤

Second that completely the man was a genius.
❤ My "birthyear" 😊 I know why I feel good when Im listen that Motown❤
This brings tears to my eyes when i remember growing up in the 60s and 70s. There will NEVER EVER BE ENTERTAINERS AND SONGS LIKE THESE EVER AGAIN..!!!
SO GRATEFUL TO FATHER GOD FOR THOSE YEARS!!!!🙏🙏🙏💕💖💖
It was the best! I could just shoot to the moon to have been a part of this era! 🔥⚡💥⚘
@@monamonae7732 Take me back to the 60s70s anyday!
Nothing to do with God just pure talent!
@@roybarwick3452 .....................
Eleanor Reyes appears to be talking more about her gratefulness to God for being alive during those days when this music was fresh to the ear, and less about the sources of the talents of the performers . . . at least in my opinion.
For dam sure. After the 60s black folk started go all natural. From snatches fros on their heads hair everywhere. Miss the days when black folk would straighten their hair and smile and not complain. Only dress up and entertain!!
Now all black folk do is complain!!! They use to be hard workers!!! Now... psssshhhhh forget it!!!
I was introduced to Soul and Motown in the 60's. I had never met a black person being from a small place in the North of England, but they were my heroes. I used to travel to a venue (Highland Room, Mecca, Blackpool) aged 15 and managed to get in although I don't remember looking 18. I lived for those nights. I am now on my own and locked down with this modern day plague, and listening to my heroes keeps me sane, long may this music thrive.
The 60's - best of times. I lived within broadcast distance of Detroit/Windsor in a very small town in Canada and was lucky to be able to listen to it at night. It still sounds like home to me. Cheers.
Cherrytrees , have you met many black people now ?
Such A Super Cool Tune ! ❤ Happy Valentine's Day Everyone 😊
A true treasure these Isley Brothers.
It’s amazing at 70 I can remember so many lyrics to so many songs ❤️
At 76, I remember dancing to this song as a teenager; it just doesn't get any better.
"I love you, yes I do" the simplest and the greatest words ever set to music !
One of my fav Motown songs and my fav Isley bros song
Old School is about all I listen to.
Here I sit listening to the Isley Brothers again.
Why not ?😂
Loved all your music R.I.P.RUDY
I still can remember where I was when I first heard this song on my transitor radio. It was the Golden Age of Soul Music.🤩😇😎
I loved Motown then and I still love it now: The Four Tops, Spinners, Temptations, etc.!
Yes indeed , this music sadly will never come back . Young people today have no song only noise !
Right on!!! It's a groove thing
Makes you dance 🕺 all night and day.
@@robertw9437 They were on MOTOWN.....in 1970 they had a hit called It's A SHAME...written and produced by STEVIE WONDER...they left MOTOWN and moved to ATLANTIC where they found GREAT success ..
@@motownfan3 th-cam.com/video/WoZP18U5VyY/w-d-xo.html you are 100% I walked to work every day that year listening to my trany radio, I loved motown
The Adantes. Never got the credit they deserved. Backing vocals on many, many Motown hits.
Never tire of this song....
As a 15-year-old going to a dance hall for the first time, hearing this and being taken over by the urge to dance, I am truly grateful to the Isley Brothers and the Mecca Ballroom Motown Night, Bradford :)
Don't ever forget it or put it behind you : this track will always get your heart and your throat and your feet : feel, dance, groove. Ever and always, let it matter.
Im 78 been listening to this song at least once a week since I first heard it the 60's and i guess ill always love you too
the best ever ! 2024 still holding up .....
OMG Susan You just hit a HOMERUN with those comments 😳 🤣 💯😘💖Still listening how about May 06 2024🫠♥️❤️
Every part of this song, every instrument, every vocal, every lyric, every individual second, is absolutely pure gold
I'm 64 oh do I remember these guys they where out of this world I would have loved to have seen them live
Sorry you guys missed this era, if you guys listen hard enough, you'll realize that to some of us growing old not too bad, if we listen we're young again, this music never old, it's only years not tears
OMG You just hit a homerun with those comments TRUE DAT I was so lucky to be born to experience that awesome era and some AMEN! I'm a ode skool junkie can't have it no other way 4REAL!! I will always have ode skool music in my blood 4EVER!!!Still listenin how about December 21 2019
I only 60 years old but this music makes me feel like I'm late for class again. Love it. Thanks for the post!!
I hear ya Jack!!
You youngster, keep safe!
I am 68 thanks to motel what a wonderful year listen to R&B
FUNK BROTHERS and the Isleys! Oh, my! You don't feel this, you need an ambulance!
My late husband used to sing this song to me or rather he'd lip sync it to me. One of my favorite memories of our lives together. Unforgettable.
This song is a part of my teens and growing up! ❤️
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music🎶 today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
Still bring back those wonderful memories.
One of the best Motown sounds ever. Everyone was touched by it.
I didn't realize the Isley Brothers were ever on Motown, but I just learned that they briefly were. Thanks for the info.
They had a lot of hits on Motown, Hendrix played guitar at one time for them.
so sad that the blacks lost so much of real talent from what I hear today or maybe I am just getting old. The emotion in their songs was awesome.
+Joe leblanc That's why I'm so glad I grew up with this music. We called it sweet soul music. We lost when unknowns began calling our music rock not roll.
It was never called Rock. Rock is Joe Walsh, The Eagles, Zeppelin, Bowie, Pink Floyd, etc.
This song gives me a feeling that I can't explain
OMG please don't leave me out loving it this beautiful classic just moves your soul in the right direction do you agree? MEMORIES WOW! !
pure joy
Me 2
I know what you mean from the first time I heard on my transistor Am radio
It almost makes me wanna cry tears of joy!!!!!
Tears ..... I got tears in my eyes, hearing this fabulous, wonderful, fantastic, perfect performance again after oh-so-many years of Life and love and (sometimes) loss. This is a sincerely joyful noise. The best ever and always.
This has been my number 1 song for as long as this 64 yr old can remember … it just has everything the perfect pop song should have - hope, joy, hurt, longing, melody, truly great vocals, arrangement … it’s just too short as an original so praise be to mosogotam for this mix.
Yes. Mosogotam has enriched us beyond all our expectations with this cut. Joy, regret, youthful hope and grownup wistful remembrance. Aren't we lucky to recognize the wonder???
AND YOU CAN DANCE TO IT !!!! The perfect vinyl, ever and always.
The best for sure. Even for this 40 yr old girl. Lucky you guys 💓
I feel the same way about this song, Robert..
I love this version. I grew up on this stuff on my Dad's Wurlitzer Jukebox in Ollies Restaurant back in the 1950s to 1974 in Jamaica Plain Massachusetts. I am all wound up with joy and tears, this would have been my Dad's Birthday. Dad has been in Heaven the past 50 years, but his spirit lives on in Facebook with all the people who knew him and admired him from way back.
Makes a Son Proud.
Has there ever been an Unsung Isley Brothers edition? If not there sure needs to be!
The intro is astonishingly remarkable. An amazing group with IMPECCABLE VOCALS. The Isley Brothers needs no introduction!!
I’m still here on this day Sunday July 31,2022.
Here’s hoping that everyone is doing great and in the best of HEALTH.
Peace - Love - and Happiness To Everyone!!
Have yourselves a PHENOMENAL DAY FOLKS!!
It's magic loved sooo much thiis era! 👍

Still listening to this great music and I am 72. Saw these groups in person 48 years ago when i was a young teen, and I went crazy for them. Murray The K Shows at the Brooklyn Fox Theater where I first saw The Temps do -The Way You Do TheThings You Do- oh, I was ‘in music heaven’ , was hooked and still love them all and their voices and dancing. Ron Isley with Rod Stewart are awesome in duet of This Old Heart of Mine.
Ron hit one out of park here.. such talent taken away You were and will be the groove in my soul. Thanks bro

This song is the peak of Motown. When you hear those first notes, if you don't want to get up, dance and sing, you have no soul.
A real classic tune..great to start the dancing party going..
Tom from Motown...76 yr's, I truly love the music.

Im 66 yrs old and friends ask what do I do to look yrs younger than my age and I always tell them "oldies music "...its true listening to the greatest music of all-time keeps you young.

Eternal admiration, gratitude, and joy for your work, Mr. Perrone. RIP. You made the joy of the Isleys louder, bigger, longer : we thank you for that.
The harmony is unbeatable.... 🎤🎼
It's incredible 😍 x
I wish men dressed more classy today, like they did back in the day. all change is not good, but thank God for this music.
If Ron Isley reads these posts, consider this a love note to a truly great song. Also
to HDH, and the Funk Bros.
I just found out that the death of Ronald Isley in Dec, 2019 is a hoax. This is the second time he has been listed as dying. Leave the man alone !
Can this music be called anything but great, timeless, and without competition from anyone but their fellow artists.
My fav version from the Isley bros, the long one. And Tammi version is incredible too ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
The Isley Brothers all Hall of Fame for decades . I can Liston to this over & over again , Love it . Back in the day when they made song about Love ! One of my top 5 Favorites. Terry , Maine USA
I'm in Lockdown in the UK. I love listening to this great music. In my early 70s and fit and young at heart, you can't beat this vibrant beat and great melody. Thank you Motown and Thank You USA for giving the world this great music, not the hate and shameful demonstrations we see on the TV.
Cliff, l hope you're staying safe. Be well and dance in the moonlight to this awesome track...l will do the same, hoping our old hearts can find some comfort in these hard times. Love and peace from the States, and pray for us on 11.3.20...gotta clean a certain white house...
You're welcome bro , with love from Costa Rica enjoy 🌴😎
With love from the North Pole 🌴😎
You're welcome we need some happiness, enjoy my classic melodies 😎
I born on a dead end street learned to fight before I was six
Motown was the absolute BEST !!!!
