My dad has the extended 12" single of this song. Around 20 years ago he started moving his vinyls to CD's, I pretty much heard his entire singles collection over an entire month blasting at full volume in our house as he transferred them across. I knew half of the songs, but the one that I'll never forget hearing for the 1st time is 'Nightshift'. My dad loves his hi-fi and invested in having the best possible sound he could afford and the production of this song really comes across when you have a high end sound system. The percussion and harmonies are so superior and so organic, If you have a music streaming service, listen to this song with the highest quality bitrate, close your eyes and enjoy a masterpiece. Whats even better is the meaning of the song, the lyrics are a perfect homage to Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, they refer to their songs so many times...and even better...'Nightshift' means 'heaven' and when you listen to the song with that in mind, its a whole new song. JUST WOW!
My late husband’s favorite song. He was a shift worker for many years and when this song would come on I’d have to play it over and over. Still brings tears to my eyes. 😢 2:47
Coming home from work at 3:30 AM! A young husband, an expectent father too! This song on my car AM band radio! 40 years later, this is pure soul, this is pure spirit and being young, free, and alive!
One of my worries is that the younger members of society might miss out on this precious legacy. That's why my grandkids get their 'olden days" education from me! Rarely appreciated up to now but I will never give up. Delighted to hear that it does it for you. Next try David Ruffin s Walk Away From Love. Simply one of the most astounding vocal performances.
What a wonderful tribute to Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, couldn't get better than this. Love the line "Gonna miss your sweet voice, that soulful noise" at the end....mind blowing.
I'm really missing the '60s '70s and '80s at this moment. It was a time when people had to have real talent to make it but in cafes, you could get stage time. Not like today where the music industry is run by corporate marketers and $$ motivated product designers. Back then music was mostly created, not manufactured. Every generation has its high points. Back then music was honest and real, and if you chose the right groups it promoted fun & hippie love. It was an amazing time for growing up. It was an amazing time for music. I still play this noise in my home all day long. :)
A song showing 'absolute respect'. Utterly timeless. Unfortunately you'll never hear another song written or sung quite like this. Just enjoy it. They really were the good days.
As it is not about a single person, it is ment to be bigger from the start: 'Nightsift' doesn't mean work at all. You are on 'nightsift' when you have dead, but to others you are only on the regular nightsift, not dead.
I’m an 85 year old great-grandmother from PEI, Canada - one of all-time favourite pieces of music - along with all the rest of their music + MOTOWN - never been anything like The Motown Music
The Night Shift gained a great one today...so sorry to hear of Prince's sudden passing. May his music and legacy live on...as does the music of the greats mentioned in this song. ♡♡♡
This can be a tough song to listen to especially when we have someone dear to our heart in mind. I’m listening a second time as a tribute to your dad. Rest easy, Sir 🌈🌈
Such a heartfelt tribute to Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson. I never get tired of listening to this. It's a shame that Lionel Ritchie and the Commodores couldn't put their differences aside and do a tour together. It's Easy, Easy like Sunday Morning
Lionel Richie became a pompous ass guy. he thought he was more important than his old band just ; because he sold millions of albums if it wasn't for the commodores he wouldn't be successful

The other band members felt hurt to read newspaper music critics writing to the effect of “what is a talent like Lionel Richie still doing playing with the funk band Commodores”. Ouch. Once Lionel started with his first solo album, the band agreed to wait as he recorded it on the understanding he’d come back to the band, which he did. However, when that solo album took off, he was approached to record a follow up solo album. He asked the band members to go on hold again, but as they had bills to pay and mouths to feed, they couldn’t afford to stand on the sidelines for Lionel, thus leading to their separation.
The comment section is full of remembering, dedicating to working nightshifts, loved ones, deceased ones. This song carries the emotions of people. Truly SOUL music. masterpiece!!
it s a no brainer when they won a Grammy, the instrumentals are nothing short of incredible timing and artistry. am a white boy thats 67 and learned to appreciate soul or any music that moves you>
This song was my dad favorite. I dedicate this song to him. He was taken from us 4 years ago. And for the ones we've lost in 2020. Peace to all! 🙏🏽Love you dad. 😢
Sorry about your loss:( I lost my father 23 years ago and my mother almost 4. Your father had great taste in music, because this song is one of the best ever.
Nightshift is a tribute song from The Commodores to RB soul singers Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, both died in 1984. The single was released in January 1985 in the United States.
this has to be the most emotionally charged and soulful song I've ever heard. I've been coming back to it for over 20 years, and I can never just listen once. It touches me so deeply and I can only thank the Commodores for giving us this timeless classic! I hope I can see them perform live someday!
My Dad loved this song, and he passed 2 weeks after the video dropped. So every time my mom's hear this, she cries. This is one of the most beautiful tribute songs ever, along with Diana Ross song "I'm Missing You".
th-cam.com/video/FrkEDe6Ljqs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=u0zbkjxyM7NX3DE8 ❤🙏 this song makes me sad. I’m not even sure if it is related to the movie “Night Shift” but it came out at the exact same time. So I always assume it was written for that movie kind of like “Romancing the Stone” by Billy Ocean which wasn’t actually in the movie by the same name. Anyway, I have long since lost most of my family and I miss them terribly. This song reminds me of the only time I ever went to a movie alone with my dad. My dad owned a chain of movie theaters in the DC metropolitan area. When dad would do surprise inspections at his movie theaters on weekend nights I would beg to tag along. On really bust nights dad would get behind the concession stand and scoop popcorn or help out in any way he could. And I would do the same when permitted. On the night dad and I saw the movie “Night Shift” we were visiting one of his theaters that I only visited that one time. It was called Cinema 7 in Crystal City (where the Pentagon is located right across from the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial on the Virginia side). I remember that night like it was yesterday. My dad was a very good man but very serious and didn’t speak much. I never doubted that he loved me with all of his heart but being the child of an immigrant family that had seen horror dad was reared in such a way as to not show emotion. It was a defense mechanism that my ancestors had been forced to develop that enabled them to survive atrocities the likes of which those of us in the west will never have to endure (unless we re-elect Trump). On the night that dad and I ended up seeing this movie I had assumed that we were just going to drive around from movie theater to movie theater checking on things. But this night was like no other. It’s possible that dad wanted to see the movie in order to predict how well it was going to do in order to strategize how many copies he wanted to lease or how to negotiate his terms with the production company. OR, maybe dad had another idea in mind. Cinema 7 was notoriously dad’s least crowded movie theater and presumably only existed because dad happened to also own the building it was in. I can’t be positive but I want to believe that dad chose for us to visit Cinema 7 on that one special evening so that we could enjoy our company together without distraction. Dad knew practically everyone in Washington DC. Had we gone to a theater in the District or in the crowded Maryland suburbs dad would have been besieged by people he knew wanting to shake hands and/or making small talk. I’d like to think that dad purposely took me to Cinema 7, a city that no native Washingtonians would ever visit as it was essentially known only for being a bottleneck for traffic exiting DC over the Key Street bridge. At the time that we saw this movie Crystal City was the site of a few apartment buildings and maybe a few restaurants. It was a stretch to even call it a “city.” The ONLY people who would purposely go to a theater in Crystal City would be workers from the Pentagon or government employees living in one of the several apartment buildings as there was absolutely nowhere to park and no subway access at the time. I remember loving the movie and my dad holding my hand the entire time. And I remembered dad seeming “less worried” that night. Dad was a tortured soul. Something that only he knew tormented him throughout his entire life. Dad was incredibly moral so i can only assume that he felt tremendous guilt for being alive. I know this sounds odd if stated in a vacuum, but “survivor guilt” is real and can be as paralyzing to some connected to a tragedy as the very victims of that sane tragedy. Dad and I watched the movie and then we went and had pizza together - just us. And on that one night dad didn’t rush. We even talked. I don’t remember what we talked about but it was light hearted and probably observational. In other words, we were moving our lips but not listening to the substance of what the other was saying. We were simply communicating our love for one another via random waveforms. The substance of this moment was not in the dialogue but in the physical waveforms we were creating with our larynx. The love was encrypted into the core of the tone of the seemingly meaningless sounds separate and distinguishable from any meaning derived from them through the lens of a human dialect. I miss my dad. Dad suffered to ensure that I never did. All I see around me are horrible parents. These parents shower their children with insincere platitudes. But the kids are nothing more than accessories in the lives of yuppies who must have everything. I chose early in life to never bring a child into this cruel world because I don’t have anywhere near the strength or emotional intelligence to raise a child as perfectly and as lovingly as my father and mother did theirs.
Listen im telling.. you.. if you catch your mom listening to this song and she smiles then you know the mourning is over.. and then the good memories will be in her head!! God bless 😊
This magical song remains timeless because it conjures up emotional memories binding life and death. Some songs are like poems, they transcend the barriers of time and space.
We played this at my Dad’s calling. In May 2021 (88- double Snowmen )It was the perfect song. He was the man… a great DadDude of the 60’s… and beyond. “You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift ❤” ( Dad, be at peace, and in love with Momme eternally) Thanks Dad, Love Anthony, Andrea, Jeff and Craig…
"Nightshift" by the Commodores is a soulful tribute to two legendary artists, Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, who both passed away in 1984, shortly before the song's release. The song honors their contributions to music, particularly their role in shaping R&B and soul. It is filled with emotion and nostalgia, serving as a reminder of their influence and how their music continues to resonate, even after their deaths. The title "Nightshift" metaphorically refers to how their voices and legacies continue to work their magic, even in the afterlife. The nightshift can be seen as a time when their spirits "work" by comforting and inspiring people through their music, despite no longer being physically present. The song praises them for their roles in bringing joy and healing to people during difficult times, as referenced in the lines, "You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift." The Commodores use the song to bridge a sense of loss with a sense of hope. The melancholic tone is balanced with a message of continuity and legacy, portraying the idea that the essence of Gaye and Wilson lives on through the music they created. Musically, "Nightshift" is reflective, with smooth, gentle rhythms and soulful harmonies that evoke the emotional depth of the subject matter. It became a crossover hit, resonating with audiences for its heartfelt delivery and timeless theme of honoring those who paved the way in music history. The song is not only a tribute but a reminder that great art and the spirit of its creators can transcend time and death.
Came to this in 2022 ! A masterpiece that's timeless. Great bassline. We need this kind of class, now more than ever ! Pure talent, no gyrations, or auto tune. More Please.
This song man whenever I feel down and I lose faith in the world altogether this song pulls me back and I feel that everything will be and is alright. God bless these guys for this classic
I am 42 and have been listening to this song for my whole life and your comment just told me that this song was about Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson. #neverknewthat
Song still gives me chills, My dad loved that sound and so do I. Great tune. The Night Shift stands for Heaven. You found another home , you know you're not alone on the Night Shift.
My late husband worked at a Chemical Plant...worked the "Night Shift"..They would call into the Radio Station and request it to be played...He died 5 years ago ..This reminds me of him....RIP Lennie...
Its people like you that GOD shows me that this world isn't all bad and we really do have some wonderful good hearted people left in this country. Thanks for sharing this with us..u deserve happiness
This has been my dad's favorite song since I was a little kid. He's 71 and I'm 42. Still his favorite song. Such a great tribute to two of the best ever.
My dad is 73 ,I'm 30 y/o, and I'm so happy that my mom left when i was a kid and I grew up with my dad, I have the best taste of music because of him,everything old is gold❤I don't like absolutely nothing new ,music is sh.. now, unfortunately.
Hey, I live in Northern Ont 🇨🇦, it's Jan. 31 2023, I'm also 71, still listening to these guys. Hope your father is doing well. We grew up listening to the greatest music there will never be again.
One of my favourite songs of all time. Such a beautiful metaphor for death - our loved ones are not really gone, they're simply working the nightshift together, singing and being happy together. "You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift". I'm of half a mind to have this played at my funeral
Thanks for clearing up the meaning of this cool song!! I sorta thought they was talking about work!! I was a kid in the 80s when this was new.. And i justed thought the song rocked, jammed!! Its one of those songs that just stays in you head for life!!
As powerful a tribute in September of 2023 as it was back in the day. Still brings a lump to the throat, a tear to the eye and MAD respect to the heart.
Somewhere up above Marvin & Jackie are still smiling 30 years later at this fantastic tribute song in their honor. Like the way Walter hands over the mic to J.D. Nicholas. Sort of like a vocal relay. He just kills it on that 2nd verse intro too. "Jackie hmmm, hey what you doin' now." Sweet sounds indeed
listening to this song and other oldies makes me realize there was a time when life was not depressing and people genuinely enjoyed being alive. thanks to whoever recorded this i get to go back in time and have a taste of good music.
I totally agree, I know this is a bit later than the 60's but that is when I grew up. I've posted this before but I'm in ovetime in this game of "life" so if only I could find a time machine to take me back and leave me there with the music.
I agree in a way. I think - and this may sound stupid at first - it is because of the digitalism / internet that this feelings are a thing of the past. We just did not know didn't we? We knew so so little about everything. We read it in the paper, we heard it on the radio or saw it on MTV and such. The world just was a lot slower. News traveled so slow. Today we know everything. We've seen it all ... it is just an endless repetitive datastream bringing us nothing new. We long to see something real; something really new. But bits and bytes cover everything in a millisecond. Books, movies, shows, music, news, shopping, sharing pictures ... an endless ocean of 0 and 1 that makes just no difference. It like at the end of The Truman-Show: The last episodes has ended ... what's next? And I work in software development and grew up in the 80s ...
my father introduced me to this song, I remember me and him sat in the car jamming to this song. I'm 22 now and I hope to come back to this one day while i'm sat in the car with my kids just like my father did and still does.
A think they're singing about us but mostly people who work a inconvenient and unsociable nightshift job lol not that they woukd know about working a 9-5!!
My Dad passed 2 weeks ago. My younger brother told me to play this song once he had passed but I didn't know the title. I know most of his old school favourites. I was woken up at 3.20am this morning with this song in my head not knowing the lyrics or the song title. I got up and had to find the song so I could play it. Here I am, I've found your song dad. The only song I didn't know. Thank you for coming to me & for showing me this. You woke me up to play your song since I missed it! I love you ❤
Hi Karina, I'm so sorry about your Dad passing. Last night this song came into my mind and I didn't know the title or artist too! I texted an audio of my voice humming the tune to my brother and he knew it. I bought the song today! After reading your comment, I'm thinking of it as a message from my estranged biological father in Heaven. May your Heart continue to hold onto the bond of Love....that never breaks..Amen! Blessings upon your heart & mind....Love lighting the way through music. Huggy♡
I'm Mexican and this song is all about pride and about the past. I get emotional with this this song. Love my brothers and what this song represents, Love this classic by these wonderful voices. These men have wonderful voices.
I know it's not a tribute to Mexicans. When I say brothers, I'm talking about my black brothers. And I did know it's about Marvin and Jake but this song is so powerful that it sends messages about love. It's a TRUE classic! Still brings tears to my eyes often.@@RealAaron317
I am 68 and I was young when this came out. This is one of my favorite songs for many years. I bet she is up there dancing and singing with Marvin and Jackie etc. and having a great time. I truly believe this son. God bless.
Reminds me if my dad (R.I.P) playing this in his Camero Traveling over the San Pedro bridge at night over looking the whole Long Beach docks and Naval Base in the 80s. R.I P to our parents we had an awesome memorable childhood.
Just a great song. The writing, the arrangement, the soul. This is a great song. I love the backstory on it, that the record label had declined to promote the single because Lionel Ritchie had left, and that they funded it themselves. Classic story
Yeah we took Lionel as our own (we meaning white people LOLOL) That's Chapelle and Mooney saying that back in 2005 and jt was funny. This is about the time (when this song released) we gave James Brown back.
Probably the best musical tribute to any artist, anywhere. Moving and uplifting and memorable (“I bet you’re singing’ proud/I bet you’ll pull a crowd”)
I agree with you, indeed Bob Seger is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style, he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days.
As a young child living in the countryside of Kenya, I could always stop to listen to this song on the Radio, They played it over and over again and I fell in love with it. I am still enjoying it to date.
My dad has the extended 12" single of this song. Around 20 years ago he started moving his vinyls to CD's, I pretty much heard his entire singles collection over an entire month blasting at full volume in our house as he transferred them across.

Marvin’s death was so cruel and senseless. This song captured the joy he left us. Jackie too.
I still listen to the same music I did back in the last 45 years. Today is my 73rd birthday. I am now listening to Night Shift. And singing.
Its Heavy and holy!!! Cheers to you Susan
and keep singing! forever more
A belated happy birthday!!

Dedication to Marvin and Jackie in this song is impeccable. Two of the greatest musicians.
It's what made it a hit. RIP to the Commedores after Lionel left.
Man their voices give me chills, great artists!! Timeless.
Hello Lauren, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
timeless chills ! peace and love from norway
This is just too good. Never seen again
What fascinates me about the old is that music was pure, made of natural musical instruments and the run deep through the soul..... What a hit 🥰🥰🥰
Is there no synthesizer or electronic instruments on this track? It sounds like it but I could be wrong.
This song sits right next to perfection 🇦🇺.

Lionel Richie became a pompous ass guy. he thought he was more important than his old band just ; because he sold millions of albums if it wasn't for the commodores he wouldn't be successful
@danielholden7720Which shows you how much they needed him
There was friction between the Commodores and Lionel Richie as his role in the band drew increasing levels of attention. The other band members felt hurt to read newspaper music critics writing to the effect of “what is a talent like Lionel Richie still doing playing with the funk band Commodores”. Ouch.
Once Lionel started with his first solo album, the band agreed to wait as he recorded it on the understanding he’d come back to the band, which he did. However, when that solo album took off, he was approached to record a follow up solo album. He asked the band members to go on hold again, but as they had bills to pay and mouths to feed, they couldn’t afford to stand on the sidelines for Lionel, thus leading to their separation.

I thought Marvin Gaye died in 1981
Pat Kelleher, he died 1 April 1984.
this has to be the most emotionally charged and soulful song I've ever heard. I've been coming back to it for over 20 years, and I can never just listen once. It touches me so deeply and I can only thank the Commodores for giving us this timeless classic! I hope I can see them perform live someday!
My Dad loved this song, and he passed 2 weeks after the video dropped. So every time my mom's hear this, she cries. This is one of the most beautiful tribute songs ever, along with Diana Ross song "I'm Missing You".
I'm sorry for your lost. May he rest in peace . Yes, this song also makes me cry. It has been around since my youth.

❤🙏 this song makes me sad. I’m not even sure if it is related to the movie “Night Shift” but it came out at the exact same time. So I always assume it was written for that movie kind of like “Romancing the Stone” by Billy Ocean which wasn’t actually in the movie by the same name.
Anyway, I have long since lost most of my family and I miss them terribly. This song reminds me of the only time I ever went to a movie alone with my dad. My dad owned a chain of movie theaters in the DC metropolitan area. When dad would do surprise inspections at his movie theaters on weekend nights I would beg to tag along. On really bust nights dad would get behind the concession stand and scoop popcorn or help out in any way he could. And I would do the same when permitted.
On the night dad and I saw the movie “Night Shift” we were visiting one of his theaters that I only visited that one time. It was called Cinema 7 in Crystal City (where the Pentagon is located right across from the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial on the Virginia side). I remember that night like it was yesterday. My dad was a very good man but very serious and didn’t speak much. I never doubted that he loved me with all of his heart but being the child of an immigrant family that had seen horror dad was reared in such a way as to not show emotion. It was a defense mechanism that my ancestors had been forced to develop that enabled them to survive atrocities the likes of which those of us in the west will never have to endure (unless we re-elect Trump).
On the night that dad and I ended up seeing this movie I had assumed that we were just going to drive around from movie theater to movie theater checking on things. But this night was like no other. It’s possible that dad wanted to see the movie in order to predict how well it was going to do in order to strategize how many copies he wanted to lease or how to negotiate his terms with the production company. OR, maybe dad had another idea in mind. Cinema 7 was notoriously dad’s least crowded movie theater and presumably only existed because dad happened to also own the building it was in. I can’t be positive but I want to believe that dad chose for us to visit Cinema 7 on that one special evening so that we could enjoy our company together without distraction. Dad knew practically everyone in Washington DC. Had we gone to a theater in the District or in the crowded Maryland suburbs dad would have been besieged by people he knew wanting to shake hands and/or making small talk. I’d like to think that dad purposely took me to Cinema 7, a city that no native Washingtonians would ever visit as it was essentially known only for being a bottleneck for traffic exiting DC over the Key Street bridge. At the time that we saw this movie Crystal City was the site of a few apartment buildings and maybe a few restaurants. It was a stretch to even call it a “city.” The ONLY people who would purposely go to a theater in Crystal City would be workers from the Pentagon or government employees living in one of the several apartment buildings as there was absolutely nowhere to park and no subway access at the time.
I remember loving the movie and my dad holding my hand the entire time. And I remembered dad seeming “less worried” that night. Dad was a tortured soul. Something that only he knew tormented him throughout his entire life. Dad was incredibly moral so i can only assume that he felt tremendous guilt for being alive. I know this sounds odd if stated in a vacuum, but “survivor guilt” is real and can be as paralyzing to some connected to a tragedy as the very victims of that sane tragedy.
Dad and I watched the movie and then we went and had pizza together - just us. And on that one night dad didn’t rush. We even talked. I don’t remember what we talked about but it was light hearted and probably observational. In other words, we were moving our lips but not listening to the substance of what the other was saying. We were simply communicating our love for one another via random waveforms. The substance of this moment was not in the dialogue but in the physical waveforms we were creating with our larynx. The love was encrypted into the core of the tone of the seemingly meaningless sounds separate and distinguishable from any meaning derived from them through the lens of a human dialect.
I miss my dad. Dad suffered to ensure that I never did. All I see around me are horrible parents. These parents shower their children with insincere platitudes. But the kids are nothing more than accessories in the lives of yuppies who must have everything. I chose early in life to never bring a child into this cruel world because I don’t have anywhere near the strength or emotional intelligence to raise a child as perfectly and as lovingly as my father and mother did theirs.
As the Commodores would say your father is on the Nightshift. And it's gonna be alright.
Listen im telling.. you.. if you catch your mom listening to this song and she smiles then you know the mourning is over.. and then the good memories will be in her head!! God bless 😊
😢😢😢It shall be well with y'all 😞😞in Jesus's name
This song brings tears to my eyes. It’s beautiful beyond words.
You're not alone.
This magical song remains timeless because it conjures up emotional memories binding life and death. Some songs are like poems, they transcend the barriers of time and space.
True
We played this at my Dad’s calling. In May 2021 (88- double Snowmen )It was the perfect song. He was the man… a great DadDude of the 60’s… and beyond.
“You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift ❤” ( Dad, be at peace, and in
love with Momme eternally)
Thanks Dad,
Love Anthony, Andrea, Jeff and Craig…
Perfectly said.
its also amazing to think how many different ways a song means to different people.
"Nightshift" by the Commodores is a soulful tribute to two legendary artists, Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, who both passed away in 1984, shortly before the song's release. The song honors their contributions to music, particularly their role in shaping R&B and soul. It is filled with emotion and nostalgia, serving as a reminder of their influence and how their music continues to resonate, even after their deaths.
The title "Nightshift" metaphorically refers to how their voices and legacies continue to work their magic, even in the afterlife. The nightshift can be seen as a time when their spirits "work" by comforting and inspiring people through their music, despite no longer being physically present. The song praises them for their roles in bringing joy and healing to people during difficult times, as referenced in the lines, "You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift."
The Commodores use the song to bridge a sense of loss with a sense of hope. The melancholic tone is balanced with a message of continuity and legacy, portraying the idea that the essence of Gaye and Wilson lives on through the music they created.
Musically, "Nightshift" is reflective, with smooth, gentle rhythms and soulful harmonies that evoke the emotional depth of the subject matter. It became a crossover hit, resonating with audiences for its heartfelt delivery and timeless theme of honoring those who paved the way in music history. The song is not only a tribute but a reminder that great art and the spirit of its creators can transcend time and death.
Hi that was nice to read ❤
Beautiful!
Thank you. Ive been hearing this song since i was ten. 😊and it gets better every year.

Who was Marvin and Jackie?
@@papucho6931 Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson.

I am 42 and have been listening to this song for my whole life and your comment just told me that this song was about Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson. #neverknewthat
THIS IS 1 OF THE GREATEST TRIBUTES, MARVIN, JACKIE, ETC........🎵🎶💓👍!!!!!!!
I know Marvin is Marvin Gaye...but who is Jackie that is mentioned in the lyrics?
@@laraschauble from Google - this song is a tribute to soul/R&B singers Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, both of whom died in 1984
Rest in peace Marvin Gaye & Jacky Wilson. And a big thank you to the commordoes
Yes, indeed
The sound of the 80’s was predominantly positive vibes underpinned by some talented pop crafting ❤it
😂❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song soothes my soul after a hard days work. So tranquil.
Am seeing there is a period of success which has been knocking on your door for a very long period of time but you don't know how to open it
Masterpiece!!! Never get tired of watching and listening to this guys with a great voice God gave them! Blessed you are ❤️ Thanks!!!
Man o man you can't deny the heart and deep spirituality in 80's music!!💯
Yeah dude., Modern music is so disposable, insincere and cynical.
@@Aidan-nw7xz PLEEEEEASE don't get me started about this modem day heartless, soulless, talentless crap! 🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾😅😅

@garycarr3857 That falls under the category of " 80'S MUSIC," right?? 🤦🏾🙄
My childhood (80s) memories are based on this kind of music.
one of the smoothest, coolest, most memorable and endearing songs ever.
Amen!
will crow 👏🏾👏🏾
Song still gives me chills, My dad loved that sound and so do I. Great tune. The Night Shift stands for Heaven. You found another home , you know you're not alone on the Night Shift.
Yea, it's a great song I always enjoy it whenever it comes up in the radio, Hey 👋
Hello Shelby, how are you doing? You got a lovely smile.
What a wonderful and pretty woman ,hello my sweetie ?
It really does give me chills as well
My late husband worked at a Chemical Plant...worked the "Night Shift"..They would call into the Radio Station and request it to be played...He died 5 years ago ..This reminds me of him....RIP Lennie...
THIS is a worthy and very touching comment!! Thank for sharing
RIP K. EVANS..... I LOVE AND MISS YOU DEARLY ❤😘UNTIL I SEE THAT BIG SMILE AGAIN!

I love this song!
This has been my dad's favorite song since I was a little kid. He's 71 and I'm 42. Still his favorite song. Such a great tribute to two of the best ever.
I am 72 and my kids 40 he isjust learning how much he missed
81 and still jammin'
My dad is 73 ,I'm 30 y/o, and I'm so happy that my mom left when i was a kid and I grew up with my dad, I have the best taste of music because of him,everything old is gold❤I don't like absolutely nothing new ,music is sh.. now, unfortunately.
Hey, I live in Northern Ont 🇨🇦, it's Jan. 31 2023, I'm also 71, still listening to these guys. Hope your father is doing well. We grew up listening to the greatest music there will never be again.
Thinking of my uncle who passed today. The black sheep and character of our family but who always was 100% true and honest. R.I.P.

Hi yeah im a thougherbred😊😊😊😊❤
One of the best songs ever written and sung!!
You sure have that right.
Yes ✋🏾❤
You damn right
One of my favourite songs of all time. Such a beautiful metaphor for death - our loved ones are not really gone, they're simply working the nightshift together, singing and being happy together. "You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift". I'm of half a mind to have this played at my funeral
Thanks for clearing up the meaning of this cool song!! I sorta thought they was talking about work!! I was a kid in the 80s when this was new.. And i justed thought the song rocked, jammed!! Its one of those songs that just stays in you head for life!!
It like Marvin's song Mercy Mercy (Ecology) you get caught in the groove not realising it's a Love song too the Mother Earth and her creatures
@Lotuzz
How do you know that. Well, that's one nightshift I wouldn't like to be part of.
As powerful a tribute in September of 2023 as it was back in the day. Still brings a lump to the throat, a tear to the eye and MAD respect to the heart.
Hey
am seeing there is a period of success which has been knocking on your door for a very long period of time but you don't know how to open for it🤯
Well said!
Somewhere up above Marvin & Jackie are still smiling 30 years later at this fantastic tribute song in their honor. Like the way Walter hands over the mic to J.D. Nicholas. Sort of like a vocal relay. He just kills it on that 2nd verse intro too. "Jackie hmmm, hey what you doin' now." Sweet sounds indeed
+Shane Anthony agree with you 100%
so true
+Shane Anthony It's pure genius. Gives me chills when he does that and the sweet harmonies at the end too. Such talent!
inspirational people,good song,a song with meaning...
+Shane Anthony Great song, but that 2. verse intro....oh my....its so freaking good...
Nothing more smooth! The old days man ! 😢👍♥️♥️♥️👍😢👍😢👍♥️
listening to this song and other oldies makes me realize there was a time when life was not depressing and people genuinely enjoyed being alive. thanks to whoever recorded this i get to go back in time and have a taste of good music.
I totally agree, I know this is a bit later than the 60's but that is when I grew up. I've posted this before but I'm in ovetime in this game of "life" so if only I could find a time machine to take me back and leave me there with the music.
Thelma, kkkkkkiaaa....please....people enjoyed being alive...a bit strong but true...now we are more like robotic...beens. Thanks...
Yes Thelma, you nailed it.
I agree in a way. I think - and this may sound stupid at first - it is because of the digitalism / internet that this feelings are a thing of the past. We just did not know didn't we? We knew so so little about everything. We read it in the paper, we heard it on the radio or saw it on MTV and such. The world just was a lot slower. News traveled so slow. Today we know everything. We've seen it all ... it is just an endless repetitive datastream bringing us nothing new. We long to see something real; something really new. But bits and bytes cover everything in a millisecond. Books, movies, shows, music, news, shopping, sharing pictures ... an endless ocean of 0 and 1 that makes just no difference. It like at the end of The Truman-Show: The last episodes has ended ... what's next?
And I work in software development and grew up in the 80s ...
If you think the 80s weren't depressing in their own unique way, I have some bad news for you . . .
I will never be over how totally gorgeous this tune is
Hello friend how are you doing today and hope you are enjoying your day over there?
This song is simply BEAUTIFUL
Perfection I’ll say ❤️😍
I think before they made it famous they worked nightshift with MG. Good song. And thank you for writing the lyrics down here.
THIS IS REAL MUSIC FOR THE SOUL
Lost my wife to cancer this year in March...and my twin brother 15 years ago....what memories this brings...till we meet again R.I.P my loved ones

Hey brotha, my condolences. Hope u are doing well and have wonderful memories
I was born in 1989 and this song brings back feels from my childhood, my mom played it a lot. I will always love this song!
my father introduced me to this song, I remember me and him sat in the car jamming to this song. I'm 22 now and I hope to come back to this one day while i'm sat in the car with my kids just like my father did and still does.
weird how music as a child is installed into memory. Music you may have hated at the time becomes your go to tunes.
Yes yes you’re right. I think we like it now cause it reminds us of simpler times. Only music can evoke such feelings

This is one of the best songs ever sung. So much meaning. These guys were not just making noise. Easy to see they have thier hearts in it. Awesome!!
A think they're singing about us but mostly people who work a inconvenient and unsociable nightshift job lol not that they woukd know about working a 9-5!!
I don't think the song has anything to do with us. Marvin and Jacky.
@@barrykime5580 unless we know who Marvin is I'd say so "I know your not alone on the nightshift"

My Dad passed 2 weeks ago. My younger brother told me to play this song once he had passed but I didn't know the title. I know most of his old school favourites. I was woken up at 3.20am this morning with this song in my head not knowing the lyrics or the song title. I got up and had to find the song so I could play it. Here I am, I've found your song dad. The only song I didn't know. Thank you for coming to me & for showing me this. You woke me up to play your song since I missed it! I love you ❤
May his memory be a blessing:-)
xx.
Hi Karina, I'm so sorry about your Dad passing. Last night this song came into my mind and I didn't know the title or artist too! I texted an audio of my voice humming the tune to my brother and he knew it. I bought the song today! After reading your comment, I'm thinking of it as a message from my estranged biological father in Heaven. May your Heart continue to hold onto the bond of Love....that never breaks..Amen! Blessings upon your heart & mind....Love lighting the way through music. Huggy♡
Very touching words. This song remind my beloved grandma. She passed away in that period.
My heart goes out to you as losing a loved one is one of the hardest things in life to endure. God bless you and the soul of your father.
Good tune !
It ain’t just Marvin...the Commodores also sing their hearts in every line.
kato mcmunch Yesss! ❤️
They were separated by then right...?
I'm Mexican and this song is all about pride and about the past. I get emotional with this this song. Love my brothers and what this song represents, Love this classic by these wonderful voices. These men have wonderful voices.
No its not its a tribute to soul/R&B singers Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, both of whom died in 1984. The did a update version when MJ died in 2009
😅
I know it's not a tribute to Mexicans. When I say brothers, I'm talking about my black brothers. And I did know it's about Marvin and Jake but this song is so powerful that it sends messages about love. It's a TRUE classic! Still brings tears to my eyes often.@@RealAaron317
This song reminds me of my mom, who is no longer here. This was one of her favorite songs. She absolutely loved this song
I feel you bro..... May her soul rest with the angels
I am 68 and I was young when this came out. This is one of my favorite songs for many years. I bet she is up there dancing and singing with Marvin and Jackie etc. and having a great time. I truly believe this son. God bless.
Reminds me if my dad (R.I.P) playing this in his Camero Traveling over the San Pedro bridge at night over looking the whole Long Beach docks and Naval Base in the 80s. R.I P to our parents we had an awesome memorable childhood.
I am sorry for your loss. My mom passed just 9 days ago. God rest their souls
So Sorry For Your Loss Michael :(
Argubly the best tribute song ever produced!
Played this song for my dad as he died in my arms in the hospital. This was his favorite song. Man I wish I could hear his voice or see him again 😥
Izzy, that's beautiful.
you can, just close your eye and you will hear him. energy never dies. the body is but a vessel for the soul.
You will brother
Shed a tear for you. Take care
I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺🥺
What a gorgeous song this is and how fresh it still sounds - passing all tests of endurance.
Just a great song. The writing, the arrangement, the soul.
This is a great song.
I love the backstory on it, that the record label had declined to promote the single because Lionel Ritchie had left, and that they funded it themselves.

It Swing so good
And they won the Grammy

Yeah we took Lionel as our own (we meaning white people LOLOL) That's Chapelle and Mooney saying that back in 2005 and jt was funny. This is about the time (when this song released) we gave James Brown back.
Marvin and Jackie, Thanks for makes our lives better through your beautiful Voices. May God Bless You two Always.
This song is a powerful tribute to those who've gone before us. I miss my dad. 16 years later, I still wish he was here. Legend to me.
