BJ's got the whole 1970's 'Lincoln' character from the TV series, 'The Mod Squad'....AWESOME !! Great tune...the dance floor was always full in the discos when this tune was CRANKED....great times.
Thelma Houston is FIRE! One of my all time favorites. I'm so glad Diana Ross didn't record this one and I'm a huge Diana Ross fan. Thelma was talented, sensual and always left me wanting more.
I love it when you 2 dress up in the 70's outfits. It looks great on you both and you would have fit in perfect back then. I was there and know that right down to the jewelry and glasses, you both have it absolutely on point!
This was actually a remake of a song released by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes. It was offered to Diana Ross as a "follow up" song to her Love Hangover but then was offered to Thelma instead which earned her her one and only Grammy award, Best R&B Vocal Performance, female, beating out Natalie Cole, Aretha Franklin, Dorothy Moore and Diana Ross, lol. She didn't attend the Grammy's thinking that with that much star power she had no chance of winning so said she was at home mopping her kitchen floor when she won, lol.
This song! Love Thelma. she was amazing. And it totally turned me into a Disco fan back in the 70s as a preteen. Loved her and Donna Summer. My divas! Oh and Chaka Khan-my first celeb crushes!
Seen both Diana and Thelma live and Thelma blows Diana out of the water with her voice. Check out Thelma’s version of The Rolling Stones “Jumping Jack Flash”.
1:01 - HAROLD MELVILLE & THE BLUE NOTES featuring Teddy Pendergrass released 'Don't Leave Me This Way' in 1975. It was covered and released by Thelma Houston in 1976, and British duo The Communards in 1986. Both versions achieved commercial success.
Heard this song for the first time in a packed theater in San Diego, California back in the 70's. It was part of the soundtrack from the Movie "Looking For Mr. Goodbar", starring Richard Gere and Diane Keaton. The ending was a real shocker. Nobody said a word and quietly walked out when it was over.
You guys look flyyyyy....I wish you could have dropped into a 70's disco weekend. It was every thing and more....every single night. The dancing was so joyous.
The theme clothing. is a FANTASTIC idea! Y'all should do more of it. Your reaction to mthe music + your reaction to each other is a definite win for all of us. Keep it up! 🔥
True, I heard also that "Don't Leave Me This Way" was originally assigned to Diana Ross and Thelma Houston was originally assigned "Do You Know Where You're Going To." However, Motown switched things up and gave Thelma ""Don't Leave Me This Way" and gave Diana "Do You Know Where You're Going To" for her Movie "Mahogany."" You can hear Thelma Houston's version of 'Do You Know Where You're Going To' here on TH-cam as well.
HOW DID YOU GET THOSE OUTFITS! 😂 Asia Beautiful as ever, B.J. looking good Funk Brother. Thanks for bring this hit back, have not heard it in years. That lady has a voice from heaven, I'll have to check out the rest of her collection!
Hilarious! You gotta also listen to the original by Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes (from a male perspective), it has a similar yet also different feel to it. Love 'em both!
You gotta react to Adam lambert singing chers song believe at the Kennedy center honors. You will be mesmerized..i promise. I've never listened to a song and didn't wanna breathe through the whole song. You guys will LOVE IT ❤️
Y'all wow me out!!! Flashback!!! When I was in high school (which was 75% white). We had physical drivers education on Saturday mornings. This one Saturday morning these two white boys I had class with said hey man let's get high!!! They pulled out the best weed I ever had!!! I wasn't test driving because I was flying in a space ship 😎😎😎 BJ , i hope you don't have on platform shoes 😅.
On a different note. You guys need to do a tune that nobody has reacted to yet and it’s a pure soul funk classic…. Gwen McCrae - 90% of me is you. Plus she also did the fantastic disco tune - Keep that fire burning and the groove classic- Funky Sensation. But so far, as far as I can’t find, nobody has done 90% of me is you. 🥰😎🔊
Hola fam! Just finding and subscribing to this channel, after a REAAAALLY long time, adoring y'all's movie reactions! Like you, Asia, i'd heard this hook before, but didn't know that this was "THAT song"! This song & y'all's outfits, brought to mind a WONDERFUL film/show i'd love for y'all to react to on *Netflix called, ***"The Get Down"***!!! I think it's SUPREMELY slept on & i can GARANTEE that y'all will dig it, Jack!!!lmbo...but FOR REAL!!! Blessings to y'all for sacrificing your time & energy to bless us! If ain't nobody told your, I love each of you...just not like Christ do!!! Later!
Hey guys nice videos!!.. was wondering if you guys can do a reaction on The group The Stylistics- Sad Girl ... as of yet, no one has a reaction, keep up the good videos, much love! 💯
Gotta let you know home slices..she be one of my Nubian Queens..Donna Summer, Amy Stewart..and Thema Wilson..great choice..now you know why we were so lean..dance that lean on ya..feel me?
BJ's got the whole 1970's 'Lincoln' character from the TV series, 'The Mod Squad'....AWESOME !!
Great tune...the dance floor was always full in the discos when this tune was CRANKED....great times.
This song is irresistible ... have lived it since the 70s 🎉

The crescendo in this song is pure inspiration and energy!!
one of my all time favorite songs! Love Thelma!
Ms. Thelma deserves more listens, her discography is awesome!
Yep, take me back to my disco days! Love your outfits--indeed, they fit that '70s disco era vibe. Thank you once again for great content!
I still love this song. ❤🩹 Thanks Asia and BJ!
You guys look great! Great song!
the Disco outfits are awesome!!
I saw Thelma Houston open for The BeeGees in 1977.I was 4 years old.My mom took me to the show.2nd row center. I still remember!
the all time greatest disco hit and my favorite!!!!!!! top 3- "Don't Leave me this Way' "I Will Survive' and "I Love the Night Life'
LOL!!! Thelma was on last season's The Masked Singer. She still has a great voice!
I saw that too, and she looks and sounds astonishing for being almost 80!
One of my all time favorite roller skating songs from childhood ❤❤
Ya'll got me cracking up with those seventies outfits. Spot on. Love it! ❤😂
Glad you enjoyed
This song! Love Thelma. she was amazing. And it totally turned me into a Disco fan back in the 70s as a preteen. Loved her and Donna Summer. My divas! Oh and Chaka Khan-my first celeb crushes!
Great look guys, very authentic. Also great 70’s classic song. Let’s dance
Seen both Diana and Thelma live and Thelma blows Diana out of the water with her voice.

Thank you so much!!
Back in the day when you get ready to hit the dance floor, you and your dance partner would dance from the side onto the dance floor.
You guys look flyyyyy....I wish you could have dropped into a 70's disco weekend. It was every thing and more....every single night. The dancing was so joyous.

BAD COMPANY...(run with the pack)...great song
BJ was definitely born in the wrong time . This is HIM
You gotta react to Adam lambert singing chers song believe at the Kennedy center honors. You will be mesmerized..i promise. I've never listened to a song and didn't wanna breathe through the whole song. You guys will LOVE IT ❤️
I'm a rocker but I always liked this.
I love the version by the Communards
Y'all wow me out!!! Flashback!!! When I was in high school (which was 75% white). We had physical drivers education on Saturday mornings.

This song would've been a layup for Donna Summer. Either way its gold.
The Communards did a great cover of this song. It's got a faster tempo and is more upbeat. I prefer it.
Give it a listen.
Im not old follower but im love be here and asia im happy to be here❤im your first mongolian follower(maybe)

Should be on Soul Train poppin the Robot moves in the dance line.
No m3ntion so far that Thelma Houston is Whitney Houstons Mom. Shout out for the great disco outfits.❤
No she's not her mother was Cissy Houston. RIP
Just stop.
Save that get up, BJ. Wear it, if you guys ever react to Sly & The Family Stone "If You Want Me To Stay". 😂
I have one for you to react to. "My Girl Bill" by Jim Stafford. A 70s hit that will entertain
Check out some old school rap from the 90's, Punks Jump up and get beat Down by Brand Nubian
The original version was by Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes , but my favorite is Thelma .... bonne journée !!!
This is definitely on my Spotify playlist. Disco and Funk are the Parents of House Music so this gets REGULAR play from me.
damn, I can see the disco ball and all the strobe lights.....
Y'all should have a New Year's Eve super Bash reaction with y'all. Brad and lex. Rob squad. Adventures of TnT
BJ got the robot down.
check out the original by Harold Melvin and The Bluenotes.
Hey guys nice videos!!.. was wondering if you guys can do a reaction on The group The Stylistics- Sad Girl ... as of yet, no one has a reaction, keep up the good videos, much love! 💯
