They play the extended version in the movie too whenever he told Mrs. Powers she had rewritten the school alma mater. Lol ( I've seen that movie one too many times lol)
It by far makes the movie. And then after when Mr Clark goes to the music teacher to tell her congratulations it’s going to be the new school song brings tears to my eyes.
"fair eastside, by thy side we'll stand and always praise thy name praise thy name praise thy name to heaven, yeah lend our hearts and hands to help increase thy fame oh lord the honor yeah, of old eastiside high brings forth our loyalty loyalty loyalty so cheer for dear old eastside high lead on to victory" All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. Get on that train.
Wow..The nostalgia that just hit me while listening to this damn near brings me to tears..I still remember seeing this as a kid in 1989..These guys still sound amazing after all these yeas...I could listen to this all day long to be honest..I miss the good ol' days!!!
It could have been worst Horace, especially if Mr Omalleys Executive Committee had went into order. They would have taught drug dealers math so they could be successful and know how to make money and vandals to learn how to spell well, write Fuck instead of Fuk
I love this movie and I’m Puerto Rican. Sets a good example. We must show the Kids who are were born in the year of 2000s and up this movie so they can learn.
There are teachers like Mrs. Powers in real life. They aren't just music teachers. They are life coaches who care and keep you grounded. Mrs. Powers would have had permission from my mom and dad to slap me upside the head if I had ever acted out of line in school. She is the teacher in mind before you go on stage, remembering the lessons she taught you about confidence and singing your heart out. Thank you Mrs. Powers.
I loved it! They killed that. Almost made me cry. But definitely took me back into the movie as when I was watching it as a young girl. Wow! Congrats to those brothas! 🎉🙂👏👏
Lisa Spikes I dont think so. But then again my father and grandpa had kids all over. Lol so u never kno. If they are a spiritual and musically talented fam, chances are we are related.
March,2021: How can anyone not like this??? Absolutely beautiful!!! Mr.Morgan Freeman should have been involved or invited as well. It would make a even more beautiful reunion💯✔👍🏿
I never knew the actual actors did that song. One of the most memorable scenes in that movie. That is so amazing to see and hear you guys so many years later. One of the best movies ever made...period!
The only school song that everybody knows lol...they still got it too.
& the best school song prolly ever written. I would buy it on iTunes if I could
Facts
YES THEY DOOO.
Yep..🤣
Well, most school songs have the same generic tune. Eastside is unique.
imagine if Morgan freeman came in and interrupted them haha
DarthSauron93 lmfaoooo

I pictured it😂🤣
It would have been perfect
DarthSauron93 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯💯😭😭😭😭
Mr. Clark's facial expression when they started singing (in the movie, of course) was priceless!

+charles elzy jr I so agree! Priceless!

+charles elzy jr mean as a bulldog! they sang good, but sad. great acting!
Especially on the "Praise thy name Praise thy name" part! lol Morgan Freeman is the truth!!!
Omg they sound awesome even better. 👏👏👏👏👍😍😍😘
504Thickbeautyy for some reason I did not expect perfection from them! They were amazing!! 🤗❤️
Wow !!
Grown men voices now!
Only think missing is for Morgan Freeman to be there to perform his role in this 😊
I finally get a chance to hear them do it full out I always used to hate when mr.clark made them stop singing
Damn it! I thought it was just me ...lol
+Kalea Lane Girl...Me too!!! LOL!
FACTS lol
They play the extended version in the movie too whenever he told Mrs. Powers she had rewritten the school alma mater. Lol ( I've seen that movie one too many times lol)
They sang in the background of the next scene when he's going through the hallways in a good mood. YOu get to hear the whole thing then.

I never really knew the real words lol I was wrong all over the place
I love that scene in the movie.. Sam's looks good as an adult..
They actually do have a video out back in the day, forgot the name of the song, I think who ever managed them didn't push them far enough
This song will never get old,,,,,, I listen to this song throughout the day
Wow..The nostalgia that just hit me while listening to this damn near brings me to tears..I still remember seeing this as a kid in 1989..These guys still sound amazing after all these yeas...I could listen to this all day long to be honest..I miss the good ol' days!!!

elise4ya No you wasn't. I can watch Lean On Me all day I love that part when they sing the song I just teared up. They still sound the same.
omg wow!!!!!!!!!! after all these years just as good as in the bathroom of eastside high!!!!!!
Morgan Freeman: "😳😳😳😡😡"
Man, this still sends chills down my spine every time I hear it!
It could have been worst Horace, especially if Mr Omalleys Executive Committee had went into order. They would have taught drug dealers math so they could be successful and know how to make money and vandals to learn how to spell well, write Fuck instead of Fuk
There would be MORE chills if Morgan Freeman showed up and played his role in this 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Omg! My daughter loved this movie! Loved these guys ! Continued blessings to all of the cast members!
Sams looks the same😅loved thier relationship in the movie.. Lol
Happy 25 Anniversary Lean on me make me smile
That song still brings a smile! You have not lost it guys!
25yrs later they still sound good#Yougoboyz💯
Boy they haven't lost it one bit; Riff ripping it like they always have. IMO, nobody else should ever sing this song.
Viper Slayer Boyz to men could sing it
Unfortunately, someone has. BJ The Chicago Kid. The name of the track Eastside High 2012 and forever.
OMG there still got the song one of the best parts scenes was the group singing in the bathroom and great movie.
This will never get old
46 years old emotional watching this and the sound track well the singing love it
Classic never gets old memories
Some music is just timeless. Y'all crushed it!!!
One of my favorite scenes from "Lean On Me". Those dudes are still Fiyah. Love it!!! What a "TBT" moment.
Lean On Me is on Netflix now!!!! 💜💜💜💜

Take me back to '89
No not Sams I just saw them live in Jersey for their up close and personal 2 show
They sound amazing
Oh my God I just find this. Miss these guys. Love these guys. One of my favorite movies.
They still got it!! This really brought a smile to my face.
I love this movie and I’m Puerto Rican. Sets a good example. We must show the Kids who are were born in the year of 2000s and up this movie so they can learn.
Wow! They look and sound good!
One of my favorite movies of all time!
They still got it 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
There are teachers like Mrs. Powers in real life. They aren't just music teachers. They are life coaches who care and keep you grounded.

Yooooo they still sound great!!! 👍👍 😲😲
are you related to the smallwood in Washington DC from the Bible Church worldwide
Lisa Spikes I dont think so. But then again my father and grandpa had kids all over. Lol so u never kno. If they are a spiritual and musically talented fam, chances are we are related.
I can't believe it, they still had it done after 25years! Sams is still himself. Lean on me.
RIFF had to be one of the most underrated R&B groups of the '90s imo.
Right!
Slept on!
80’s baby know, they made us watch this in school every year!
Still gives me chills.... DAMN!!!!
Riff. Their album is so underrated. Little Girls, I Can't Believe We Just Met...that whole album is money.
Beautiful voices 👌😍
I can hear Mr. Clark now. Come here Sam.. pull your pants up, walk in a straight line lmaoooo 😭 Loved this movie so much ❤️
March,2021:

I never knew the actual actors did that song. One of the most memorable scenes in that movie. That is so amazing to see and hear you guys so many years later. One of the best movies ever made...period!
+MrDBOne Au (mrdboneau)
Sams was the only actor. The other 4 who were in the movie were also a band from the 80's, they never really took off though..
They're actually an R&B group called Riff & were really students at Eastside High.
