I am 43 now and really miss this era, I was in high school then , popping and robot dancing, we had zipper pants and hacky sacks, with Van's shoes, spencer gifts at the mall, fast times at ridgemont high, girls with the poof hair, jordache jeans, neon lighting, rubiks cube, molly ringwald movies, pure soul, electro, new wave, and soooooooooooooooooooo much great music left and right on LP, 12" or 45 (7"), and nothing mattered other than enjoying everyday and being a teen. Anyone else with me???
Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis made hits for many artists in the 80's. They came up with this song because Cherrelle used the term in a general conversation. They wrote it down, and came up with this. Brilliant! My favorite producers of all time.
@@joshuaderrico3919 actually makes sense, considering they also did janet jackson's breakout album and did it up in minneapolis, having worked with prince before (and they did that with janet as well. took stuff she told them, made songs out of it, got an all time great album as a result).

I Didn't Mean to Turn You On" is the debut single written by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and originally performed by Cherrelle in 1984. In 1986, "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On" was covered by Robert Palmer. Palmer's cover fared better on the pop charts while Cherrelle's version was a hit on the R&B charts.
@@darrylmartin8945 heard this song playing at a nightclub a couple months back. It was like an 80s theme since they played nothing but 80s music. Maybe it'll bring you some memories if you were present there lol. I'm young but grew up listening to music like this because of my parents and I liked it.
As a kid i remember seeing this original version of the song once. ONCE! after that it was always the Robert Palmer version and i had always wondered if i just imagined it. Years of wondering what the hell happen to this babe. 🤔 Glad i found her. This is the best version.
Just found this version of this song. So glad I did. It's great. I never knew the Robert Palmer version was a cover. They are both good in their own way (as covers should be, in my view). they will both have a place in my playlist from now on.
Fact: Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis originally offered this song to Janet Jackson, But she turned it down. So it was given to Cherrelle. Robert Palmer and Mariah Carey made their own versions of this song, But in my opinion, Cherrelle's version is better than both.
+Harley I gotta put Robert's #1. Male bias maybe, but it was great to hear a man who was straight (unlike Jermaine Stewart) that not every guy just want sex. And RP was one of the coolest white man in the galaxy
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot I agree with two things you said..RP WAS the coolest white man on the planet then(David Bowie was prob coolest in the galaxy) , and... Manu Ginobli..hes the man
+Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot Robert Palmer said in an interview that when he heard this version he thought it was meant to be sung by a man. Yes, RP was one of a kind.
Cherelle was so cute and talented. I love her face, music, and style. This song is 🔥 fire! I thought about her and Alexander today. Then, I watched the Innocent video. That is a great song too. I loved when Alexander and Cherelle performed together, but they are awesome solo as well.
I started jamming some Alexander O'Neal songs earlier today including "If You Were Here Tonight" and "Sunshine" which led me to "Saturday Love" with Cherrelle. This was some really good stuff.
The original & BEST VERSION!!!!! The solo synth/keyboards off da chain!!! Either Jimmy Jam or Monte Moore guessing!!! New school just don’t know what they missed! Good music & awesome solos!!! Show casing the talent!💃🏽🕺🏽👌
Correct. *Monte Moir* played the synth solo at 2:10. *Jam* played virtually all of the other instruments. *Terry* wrote the lyrics and sings background vocals beginning at 2:58
Seeing Cherelle on the 2019 Soul Train awards brought me here. Cherelle has gotten Thick! She still looks nice Thick or Thin. Looks very good for her age☺.
For the folks who came here b/c of the recent film showcasing the music.....about time, and thank you lozleo for sharing the actual video. I hadn't seen it since the 80's on BET ;)! This version came before Robert Palmer's remake.
cool video and song I didn't mean to turn you on they use to play that at the old limelight club in NYC in the 80s all the time Robert Palmer does a good version too
+Dominique Kelly He sure did mane! LOL! When this song first came out.. I was like WTF is there a Gorilla doing on the roof top..? Oh shit!!! IS he poppin? ...Yep.. he is.
I first saw this clip back in 1984 when I was 14. I developed a big crush on Cherelle that remains to this day. She was so adorable falling asleep in Kong's hand. Break dancing Kong hasn't been topped.
Thia song brings me back to a time that is so far removed from the present. A whole different world, where dancing and falling in love were synonymous with each other. I want to go back in a time capsule...if only...turn me on...
@you2913 I'm right along with you. I'm a 1982 baby and I don't know how I missed this song for so many years. Straight outta Compton movie put me on to this song.
I never knew this was a cover till now! Glad someone pointed this out by commenting on the Robert Palmer version. I learn something new every day whether I want to or not. Great song (but what else would you expect from Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis). ❤☮🌎

I'm gettin' old because this was my shit, too. 80's and 90's were powerful when it comes to music.
The 80's were the best time for both movies and music. Innovative and not analyzed to death!
NO DOUBT
For sure
I can never decide whether I prefer this version or Robert Palmer's...
Yes that the Shit Im getting old Im 53
Ah, that sleek 80's groove. This record is everything that I love about the 80's.
No it’s not
You got that rite😆
Man! For real! The drums on this track are INSANE!

sounds like prince

Also reminds me of Prince's 1999
jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis never missed, they defined the genre.
Mariah Carey covered it too
84 !!! Where you AT !!!
Yeah this song has Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis written all over it it has the time prince sound to it's a Minneapolis thing straight funk
The ape break dancing used to be my fav part as a kid 😂
La-la-la-la_la! YEP!!
You too?!?
I was going to say the same thing:)
You're so lucky to have been a kid at this time. I wasn't born until 1995 and shit just wasn't as cool

Wow I didn't know her real name is Cheryl Ann!!!!
61 years YOUNG!
Belated 66th.
Never be like these days ever! Just got to make the best of what music is handed to us. I will listen to ole school forever! 80's Rocks!
I'm 17 years old again. 😋😋😋😋
Every decade has good music. Just gotta find it. If there wasn’t good music in every decade people wouldn’t continue covering previous decade songs
@@brianlogsdon4824 yea but you REALLY got to look now the last decade or so...70s, 80s, 90s is untouched
These were the best days , I miss them so much😪

.
nooo robert palmer best
Me too❤
I wasn't born when this joint drop but got damn it goes hard.
You know the music hot when someone from a different era of music says it's dope
Check out Robert Palmers version. From the guy’s perspective and it’s smooth
@@brianlogsdon4824This version is the best one💯
@@sashawhyte7396nah Palmer’s was the best. This one is still good.
@@umagnus77I’m born in 04 and ts bumpin 😂
The original version is still the best version...2018 and still a classic
Just found this version of this song. So glad I did. It's great. I never knew the Robert Palmer version was a cover. They are both good in their own way (as covers should be, in my view). they will both have a place in my playlist from now on.
You got to be kidding or tone deaf ?😮
both are on my playlist as well
Haha , every Robert Palmer song was a cover . He'd take obscure hits and put em through the Machine and voila. A hit
This song kicks ass.....i love it!
That's that Minneapolis sound right there........
Howard Sturrup That's Universal Sound right there.....no matter where you are on the globe this song makes you move.
DaOrigTruthSeeker True! Very funky..
You should hear Robert Palmer version. Smooth
80's babies stand up !!
83 woot woot!!!
Flower_Gemini 87 whooo!!
whoot WHOOT LOL
We are standing, this new music can't touch our generation.
Chris Caruthers Truth spoken!!
Cherelle , Jimmy & Terry made some GREAT songs together. Another classic hit.
I love this song but seriously if King Kong did a movie where he was poppin and lockin...I'm all over that!!!
King Kong would have break danced his butt off the tall building. :-)
My favourite song of Cherrelle’s! Sweet, amazing memories!! I love the Minneapolis sound forever!! 💋❤️🌹
minneapolis ?
I’m from 1999 and I love this song👌🏽
"Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999..." Yep! It matches!
Salute to Jam and Leiws for being inducted into the Rock and Roll HOF! The break dancing Kong is iconic! LOL
did the APE get into HOF too he should

1. Cherelle
2. Robert (rip)
3. Mariah's version
+Harley I gotta put Robert's #1. Male bias maybe, but it was great to hear a man who was straight (unlike Jermaine Stewart) that not every guy just want sex. And RP was one of the coolest white man in the galaxy

I love this song from my teenage years back in the mid 1980's.
It was Michael 'Boogaloo Shrimp' Chambers. He starred in the "Breakin" movies. Look up his famous broom dance scene here on TH-cam.
lozleo no that wasn't Michael, it was a guy name Kevin Foster... Shrimp definitely poped better plus Boogaloo doesn't breakdance... check your facts
Wow.. wondered who Breakin King Kong was LOL
That guitar 🎸 solo..is the bomb 💣
Not a version: THE ORIGINAL
So....
@@pickzkickz little kid
Word!
Not the original, but better sounding version.
This version came out in 84 Roberts came out in 85
Good night is not enough for you --! Oh the pain! She was only trying to be nice! Great song about a tough situation!
Good Music ! Im 53 this is My times !
2024 I’m still jamming to this song I love it well done cherrelle
When Eazy E and MC Ren walks into a club...
Best comment ever.
***** ain't nothing but Pirus in here
+Ozzy Hadley Yep! my same thought
same thought!!! i started dancing too
Philip Bourne sup blood
The original & BEST VERSION!!!!!
The solo synth/keyboards off da chain!!!
Either Jimmy Jam or Monte Moore guessing!!!
New school just don’t know what they missed!
Good music & awesome solos!!!
Show casing the talent!💃🏽🕺🏽👌
Correct. *Monte Moir* played the synth solo at 2:10. *Jam* played virtually all of the other instruments. *Terry* wrote the lyrics and sings background vocals beginning at 2:58

King Kong break dancing on top of a building for the wiiin
CLASSIC!!😁
I must admit Ronnie. Although, I know it's a person in a costume outfit. He dances better than I've seen some people in the club dance in the past.
Thanks for taking me back to childhood with this song. This was the first music video I taped on VHS tape VCR lol.
This version of this song has been stuck in my head all day.
this song is still slamming! 🐵🐒🐒🐒
Wow, I always remember the song because it's been covered so many times but I forgot about the video. I love Cherelle, she ruled in the 80's!
400 people DON'T know what good 🎶 is
Love this song, and Cherelle is so beautiful!
❤ ça donne à mort !! Ce son des années 80 , c'est vraiment inégalé ,magique..6h du mat, ça revenu
Real music...miss the 80s!
cool video and song I didn't mean to turn you on they use to play that at the old limelight club in NYC in the 80s all the time Robert Palmer does a good version too
+TheLexicon1000 Cherrelle's is the original version, recorded in 1984. Robert Palmer's version is a cover recorded in 1985.
someone should cut both songs into a video a single music clip
Jj Jones well, the song is good anyway. :)
lozleo R.I.P to Robert Palmer but his version is not in the class of this !! nothing beats the original!!!!!
@@troyevans9981 I disagree
I search for one little 80's song and 3 hours later down the TH-cam rabbit hole, here I am. But its been so much fun!
I'm going down that hole today, move over!
That seems to sum up my life! :)
Straight outta Compton..I was waiting for the whole song to play!! Absolutely love this song
I remember this video in 1984. Still love it!!
Love that bouncy beat...Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis are GENIUSES
why the guerilla killed it on the roof tho
My favorite part lol
+Dominique Kelly He sure did mane! LOL!
When this song first came out.. I was like WTF is there a Gorilla doing on the roof top..? Oh shit!!! IS he poppin? ...Yep.. he is.
That electric guitar solo helped out a whole lot...man the 80's was that shit...sniff
+Dominique Kelly LOL YUP I HAD TO REPLAY DAT SH*T
im weak 😂😂😂😂😂!!!
The song SCREAMS 8O’s miss those days 😢
My favorite part of this video is King Kong breakdancing.
Yes. Yes. Yes. I fast forwarded just to get to that part!!
that was genius
I'm 26, and I love music like this. So fire.
Cherelle is so beautiful.....boss tune! Palmer's is ok...but this is the one.
That video still cracks me up!!
Straight Outta Compton!!!
Glitter!!!
Ultimate Party Jam right here! Love it. Palmers re make was awesome too.
Love this original! Also love Robert Palmer's cover of it.
He was sued for copyright infringement
@@sidneyatkins6678 Yes, but his version is waaaaay better.

I remember listening to this song as a teenager, oh, the memories!!!! Who here in 2020
🙋🏾
I guess TH-cam really is a learning tool/ never knew this was Cherrelle till I was searching her other tunes !!!###
Thia song brings me back to a time that is so far removed from the present. A whole different world, where dancing and falling in love were synonymous with each other. I want to go back in a time capsule...if only...turn me on...
Yes your statement
The synth bass line may be one of the best ever….. the ending 2 min of extende version is crazy.
This music is an actual singer and actual band and it translates to your soul
Love this song and video well done cherrelle 2023 still listening what happened to you???❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The 1st time I saw this video was on BET's Video Soul with Donnie Simpson.
One of my fav 80’s jams. Still loving it in 2024
Stumbled upon this 2019, been sleep for 28 years.
This version, 2021. But I knew Robert Palmers version since I was a kid in the 80s
@you2913 I'm right along with you. I'm a 1982 baby and I don't know how I missed this song for so many years. Straight outta Compton movie put me on to this song.
God I feel like I haven’t heard this song since the 80s!!! 80s kid over here!!! 2019!
One of my most favorite songs of all time
This reminds me of steppin' with my Q-pearl sisters at the frat parties at CMU 1984. Miss those days and this music. Q-PSI!
I love this song with Cherelle and Mariah Carey... Both are excellent!!! :-)
Do you remember BET's Video Soul program hosted by Donnie Simpson from the 1980's? Here's a great example from those days!
Sounds like a Classic Prince. I love this groove and That Kind oder lyrics
This IS MUSIC! Nothing like OLD SCHOOL MUSIC!!! The memories...;)
Believe me, this is not old school.........just 80's crap ,.....lol
I never knew this was a cover till now! Glad someone pointed this out by commenting on the Robert Palmer version. I learn something new every day whether I want to or not. Great song (but what else would you expect from Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis). ❤☮🌎
was this song produced by jimmy and terry too?
Cameron Mosley Yes
Yes, but Robert Palmer's version was produced by Bernard Edwards, the bassist from the group, CHIC...
Man, I'm so happy. This song was stuck in my head, and spent two days trying to figure out who sang it.
it just dawned on me how much the message of the song is when being sung by a different gender. eg. Robert vs. Cherelle
both sound great
I still buss a dance to this one!!! King king playing the guitar 🎸.
I have a quick question,,is it me or does this sound/music sound more like Prince and the Reveloution??
Produced by Jimmy Jam...he did the shit for Janet Jackson in the 80's
robertpilar Thanks, for some reason at the very beginning I thought it was a Rick James production till I read your comment.
robertpilar
they were the shit even before Janet !
Darkside Dragon the sound is from former bandmates of Prince so this make sense why it has that sound its a Mineapolis sound.
I was thinking about that too! Sounds like 1999
STILL listening 7/12/23 from Houston,Tx. Where yall from?
I actually havent heard this in ages...just started singing it....then remembered she performed this!!!
Love her and Palmers version!
❤ excellent ! Perfect at 6.30 am to shave,dress...start the day...a Classic..
Got damm this instrumental is so hard, drum programming on point
This is f'n brilliant. I miss the 80s so damn much.😭
I love this song ❤️❤️❤️Cherrelle is so cute
Break dancing king kong hip hop 80s r& b just shook the world's core
look, whoever was in that suit you know they was sweating their ass off, cause u have to do multiple takes. hopefully he had a zipper.
lol
Same here....I felt that. Lol!
😭😭😭😭😭 Miss these days.
My favorite version
What a classic! How did I miss this in the 80's?
Who still listens to this on 2021?
Hear that phat Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis production! They were still oozing the Prince / Minneapolis vibe in thoee years.
The video is so cute
yup, there is an element of cuteness and old Hollywood as well as cheesy costumes & animation.
20+ years later and This video is still Awesome!!!!
Always puts me in my happy mood 💋
