I'm 49 and I remember this song when I was young..let me tell you something that's when music was good you'd had been there in that time people were different back then 😊
2024 and still getting goosebumps from this song. What a voice this man had! Brings tears to my eyes, also mainly by thinking about my life and thinking about the past and the good old days....🥲
I first discovered Lisa's amazing voice when attending hometown church in Bloomington, Minnesota, where her husband Spencer is a pastor, and Lisa's sometimes sings.
I grew up in the 80s. Proper amusement arcades, amazing animation, and bouncy castles. Lots of bouncy castles. Playgrounds were potentially death traps, all concrete and steel, but, by the four winds, it galvanised you.
87 the year i was born. Time goes so fast. Isn't crazy you always go back to the songs you heard growing up to feel good. God bless you and happy Christmas and New year to you ❤
I'm 60 years old now but in my younger days I used to frequent the night clubs in town back in the good old 80s. This song was always played every time I went to one particular night club called Squires. Hearing it brings back so many great memories. Thank you Alexander for some truly great songs and some truly great memories, from England 😊
I'm with you all the way. Am 66 now and also remember the clubbing days when this and many other 80s classics used to set the places afire! I saw him in concert at the Albert Hall (London) in April 1991 with The Pasadenas in support on the All True Man tour - seriously one of THE best concerts of my life.
What u mean the 80s it’s still one of the best now as are all the 80/90s tunes … they will never be beaten a club dance floor with all these classics is one hell of a night… compared to the shit that’s made today… no wonder the clubbing scene has diminished ….
I love this song. It reminds me of my late wife of 25 years. Brilliant times. R.I.P from our beautiful son and to good times. This doesnt mean alot to anyone but i dont g a s. This song fires times in our then young lives that can never be taken away. Thank you. Xxxxxxxx
I am still Jamming to this song at the end of April 2024. It sounds even better since it was real music. 67 years of age and still listening to this great music from when I was 30 in 1987 and the clubs were jumping.
I accidentally stumbled upon this song in the midst of lockdown and ended up listening everyday till date at least once. There’s something magical about Alexander’s voice and the music composed for the song.Being from India, I am extremely privileged to listen to music from across the globe. Thanks to technology which has shaped and broadened the channel to explore a plethora of genres.. Happy new year to all you music lovers.
The 80's hands down produced some of the most unbelievable sounds and music not to mention the sophisticated style and class...Theses women playing with Mr O'neal absolutely brilliant beautiful and Talented very deserving of Hall of Fame the stuff legends are made of!!!Thank you Alexander O'Neal for giving me a great child hood and teenage dream I will never forget it...No....not never!!
It's only this video that has 3mill, another video clip, say on the old grey whistle of him sing it, maybe has 4mill, its each performance that gets views, if its live it maybe has 5mill
@@johnnypox7226 😂 yeah, they don't play this that much anymore on the radio in my country neither. Damn shame! Still one of the best feel good tracks ever !!! 💐👋💞💯💯💯❤️
One of my all time favourite songs. This came out when I was 14. Would sit in my bedroom blasting this out at 14 having to rewind the tape to repeat it. Still love it ❤
In 1986, I happened to get my 1st job as a teacher at his former HS in MS, North Natchez high School. I lived a mile from his mom (In Broadmoor) and met him at a club there in Natchez in '87. Went to the same college (Alcorn State). Not many people know, but he was an outstanding linebacker/defensive end in football. An All-around talented guy!!
There's nothing like music from this decade, I grew up during the 80's, it was absolutely unbelievable, there was something about the 80"s that made it magic, for me it was all about the music, I'm privileged to have grown up in this decade
Nearly 2025, I'm 58! Love you Alex!! I remember dancing about in my bedroom in 1987!grown with you. Your a true master. In tears when I listen now. So many memories xx love you x
When I was a child my dad used to play this song in the car. But I thought it was a dream. Somehow I was trying to remember the lyrics to that day. And I thought yeah I must be dreaming.....then have you guys ever had one of those days you fall on something you haven't heard for like 35 years and it hits hard in the heart. I'm having that right now.
This was my mothers theme song when I was baby. She always played this song and always said our immediately family was criticizing her. She had converted to Islam and the way she dressed, how many times she prayed down to the food she ate the rest if the family made a big deal out of it. She was passionate about her beliefs and her new found spirituality. One thing she didn't drop was the good R&B music...she wasnt dropping Alexander O'neal for nobody!!!! This man has no idea how liberating this song was for my mother...
I was 29 in 1987.....that bass line.....wow.......those beautiful women. A video to empower women; fantastic. He looks so cool it's incredible to watch. Give me a time machine please!
I’m 43 and didn’t hear this song until 2008 GTA IV. Amazing song. Also his track, “If you were here tonight” is an another great one I didn’t hear until this year, thanks to IG.
That radio station hits different when it’s night time in game, especially when "Footsteps in the Dark" comes on. The Beat 102.7 is perfect too with "Flashing Lights"

Alexander O'Neal had one of the most distinctive voices in R&B. This is one of my all-time favourite jams of his. Love the pulsating beat . Jam and Lewis upped the tempo on this one. Brilliant.
Well since I’m not American, I didn’t knew the existence of this song until some years ago driving a car on Liberty City (New York City version in GTA IV, a video game), so I heard this song and I liked and loved instantly, a true masterpiece and a 80’s feeling this one 😍
I'm late to the party. Never heard of Alexander O'Neal until a couple months ago. I don't know what planet I lived on because I thought I was an 80's music guru. I was reading an article on Morris Day and the Time and heard the name. Looked him up. POW! Instant fan. Now, I know all the songs on every album and he is the best find of the year!! I'm simply incapable of turning it off. I wish they still made music like this today. And my lord, what a handsome guy!
Alexander O'Neal is definitely one of the underappreciated artists of his time.. But please don't worry. There are dozens more unbelievably talented R&B artists yet to be discovered.. artists who have simply been lost in the shuffle as music tastes changed over time.. but the music they left behind testifies to their talents.
Absolute late 80's classic it is timeless and brings back so many memories of my times in the nightclubs back then, dancing my heart out to Alexander O'Neil What a Legend of the Dancefloor.
Chris A. Totally 😄👍and no surprise there because Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis wrote and played this jam. Both are ex associates and band members of Prince from the Time and also Alexander, but Prince sacked him and next Jimmy and Terry. Their all from the Minneapolis sound of Funk.
Love when the younger generation falls in love with the classics from the 70's 80s and 90's and keeps them alive and relevant. Greatness has no expiration date folks. This song will still be fire in 4042
Alexander before my time. I'm a 90s baby. But my god I love his music and his voice. I'm going watching his farewell tour with my mum tomorow I can't wait. This I'd proper music I also love George Benson ❤
I recall listening to the chart countdown on the radio in the 80s and the sense of anticipation waiting for this song to start! It fills me with joyous abandon! What a scorcher!!!!!!!! 🌟💥🔥
You know what, one of the best things about being in my 50's now is that I lived my teenage years in the 80's..........Priceless and I wouldn't change them for the world🇬🇧
Most gorgeous song ever. Everything about it is amazing, light, happy, upbeat. Backgrounds singing, instruments, the 80s were the best, artists really cared about their music&put everything into it. Even the film's of the 80z were best, and they had amazing soundtracks hits. I miss 80s so bad it hurts, makes me cry tbh! I wish can go back.
Alex voice is unique. Those days they all have different unique voices, that can’t be copied. What a classic! Evergreen! My older siblings banged the shit out of this banger in the 80’s. Legends
I remember this so well from the Streatham ice rink in London, they played it every time. I was just a kid but I loved skating to this. So takes me back.
❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍 This MASTERPIECE has been, is and FOREVER WILL BE one of my ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE JAMS of my ENTIRE 63 YEAR YOUNG LIFE! I FLY with it and O'Neal and all the INCREDIBLE MUSICIANS who mad it every damn time I hear it!!!!!
Got to be one of the greatest dance tunes ever, still listening 2024
True .
Songs like this put a smile on my face. I miss the 80's. I was a teenager when this came out.
Me too. I still remember watching this video for the first time,great memories.
True that.
One of the best songs ever made. I’m 25 and listen to this song every day like I was born back then 💃
I'm 49 and I remember this song when I was young..let me tell you something that's when music was good you'd had been there in that time people were different back then 😊
55 yrs old and I was in the thick of it, brilliant times….
Fr… I’m 26
I'm 165 years old and wish I would just die
TELL A FRIEND I'M 47 I PLAY A COOKOUTS
Who still listen jamming to this in September 2024? Who's with me? It's sad they don't make this music anymore. Age of 60
As we speak. Can't ever get tired of this beautiful song and this living legend, O'Neal. Rocked this beat back in the day. A masterpiece.
I'm in

I am 🔥🔥🔥
🇰🇪🇰🇪
52yrs just can't stop listening to these vibes
2024 and still getting goosebumps from this song. What a voice this man had!
Brings tears to my eyes, also mainly by thinking about my life and thinking about the past and the good old days....🥲
Likewise...amazing times
I'm picking up what you're putting down 💯
Partying at the Bit-n-Apple.
48 years old and I still remember the buzz when this tune first hit the charts,
Lol I wish i was around then I would be non stop listening
Yeah! I was there, too!
I was there to, wow what memories, and what music that was 👏👏👏👏🌹🏴🏴🏴🏴x
❤️ My favourite song 😊
47 years old and I remember it as well.
Lisa Keith's backing vocals are sublime and made the song a classic.
oh my god yes
Bang on! I can dig it.
She elevated the song to pure perfection.
I first discovered Lisa's amazing voice when attending hometown church in Bloomington, Minnesota, where her husband Spencer is a pastor, and Lisa's sometimes sings.
@@gilboyle1387 thanks for sharing this, very cool!
Who is listening to this great single in 2024. I wish the 80's was a vicennial, which is a period of 20 years and not a decade!
It's on repeat for me, today
Me. Since my college days of the 80s.
Tolle Lieder sterben nie ,80',die geilste Zeit meines Lebens 😊✌️✌️✌️
Yep me bloody love this
I grew up in the 80s. Proper amusement arcades, amazing animation, and bouncy castles. Lots of bouncy castles. Playgrounds were potentially death traps, all concrete and steel, but, by the four winds, it galvanised you.
Pure nostalgia from a music era that will never be repeated. God bless the 80s
For my friend Andrea. She passed away yesterday. Thank you for your friendship and the memories, they'll never die. Love you xxxx
My condolences to you
SO VERY SORRY to read that. Sending you strength and light and love!

I'm with you all the way. Am 66 now and also remember the clubbing days when this and many other 80s classics used to set the places afire!
I saw him in concert at the Albert Hall (London) in April 1991 with The Pasadenas in support on the All True Man tour - seriously one of THE best concerts of my life.
He's touring again his last ever tour I'm 56 so I also remember going to clubs and this was blasting out
I guarantee if 80's music came back, the world would be a happier place.
I agree!
Hell Yes👍👍
You can say that again and again.

That's just it. It never went anywhere. Srill here.
What a classic! Brings back so much fond memories of our clubbing days!
Facts
This song was one of the best of the 80s, in fact his whole album was. Life was great in the 80s, the music, the clothes, nothing will ever beat it.
❤ Correct
What u mean the 80s it’s still one of the best now as are all the 80/90s tunes … they will never be beaten a club dance floor with all these classics is one hell of a night… compared to the shit that’s made today… no wonder the clubbing scene has diminished ….
Hearsay was an amazing album.
I TEACH THIS TO KIDS. IM FOR REAL.N
I can't think of a better produced or more effective use of backing vocals. It is like cream being poured on strawberries. Really superb.
Amennnn
Another Jimmy and Terry production comes close for me: 'Ice Cream Dream" by Mc Lyte on the "Mo Money" motion picture soundtrack.
Bernard Wright - Who Fo You Love 👌
It's definately the jizz on the tits of music.....
My entire teenage years were in the 80's.....I'm blessed🙏
Truly blessed being a teenager in the 80' ...I totally agree!.
Same. Turned 11 right before the start of the 80s and 21 right before the end
That was me very happy times ❤

Boy do I miss the 80's....
Me too
TELL ME BOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ซาง สูง yeah best times ever
The best music for sure, but let's be honest and not look through rose tinted specs, it was great if you were a straight white man living in the west.
You'll Never Be Alone On That, Believe Me
I was lucky to grow up in the 80s and listen to great music like this! Wish I could back.
The world is s*#t now!
Totally agree
Same here
Legend of a song. Alexander brilliant. Brings back memories.
This is so funky! Terry and Jimmy Jam production at it's finest! That Minneapolis Sound!
Bigtime buddy, loves their sound in the day 👌
except it needs more bass and i would like to hear Alex sing the hook melody that the girls sing
@@BarkleyConners always had the same feeling
Jelly Bean produced this
Wow you're right Brother Dee! Looked it up he produced for Janet and New Edition too.
One of my all time favourite songs. This came out when I was 14. Would sit in my bedroom blasting this out at 14 having to rewind the tape to repeat it. Still love it ❤
A super classic by Alexander. His deep, powerful vocals melt into the eighties production. The result is organic & timeless.

When I was a child my dad used to play this song in the car. But I thought it was a dream.
Somehow I was trying to remember the lyrics to that day. And I thought yeah I must be dreaming.....then have you guys ever had one of those days you fall on something you haven't heard for like 35 years and it hits hard in the heart. I'm having that right now.

♥️♥️♥️♥️
you're not the only one I remember I was in the car with my dad when this song was on

This is one of the greatest songs of the 80s
Yes!!!
*Ever 💙
First Heard this on a Saturday Night in 1987 at Los Angeles' Palace Nightclub. Had the album by Monday
AGREE :D

it's awesome the bass the midrange awesome
It doesn't. I agree. Classic Jam
This song was a powerhouse song for the 80's. It had a big presence and I always would play it loud. He was amazing !

❤️❤️❤️ Pure class . Best song of the 80s for me xx
The ebb and flow in his voice is infectious..All time classic!!!,and will be relevant forever
This was my record of 1989 - and a fantastic album, good luck on your farewell tour Alex- hope to see you Shrewsbury to roll back the years!!!!
2022 and Alexander O’Neil deserves all the credits! My 80’s memory 🥰
Most gorgeous song ever. Everything about it is amazing, light, happy, upbeat. Backgrounds singing, instruments, the 80s were the best, artists really cared about their music&put everything into it. Even the film's of the 80z were best, and they had amazing soundtracks hits. I miss 80s so bad it hurts, makes me cry tbh! I wish can go back.
One of my fave songs of all time! Take me back
Hands up who were the lucky ones to have your childhood through the 80s .? Jeez it was epic.
🙌 I was 21 in 1987. Some of my best times 😊
I heard it in the 80's.... I appreciated it in Grand Theft Auto 4... and now here were are, 12 years on from the game still listening to it.
Alex voice is unique. Those days they all have different unique voices, that can’t be copied. What a classic! Evergreen! My older siblings banged the shit out of this banger in the 80’s. Legends
That whole album is a straight up classic.
I've listened to that album a million times over the years. It's all scratched up and shit.
💯
I've only got 2 cassettes Alexander oneil & princess

I loved this song together with "Fake", both from Alexander O'Neil.
