I hate when people think if you're young, you automatically hate music like this. or you "don't know anything about it." I'm 11 years old and all I listen to is eighties music.
I miss those years. At my 50 years old I consider my self so lucky to be able to grow, live and enjoy that such beautiful time, and with the best music ever.
Joseph Schneider I totally agree! So glad to be young in the 80’s, we may never see anything like the 80’s again, that music brought everyone together for good times and great memories!
christine pierce American Bandstand performances were always lip synced and mimed. None of their equipment here is plugged in. But they did play & sing live in other shows.
@@racing747I grew up viewing both American Bandstand and Soul Train in the 70s and 80s. Every artists that performed on either of these dance shows, including Michael Jackson, Elton and David Bowie lip synced on these dance shows, Einstein. 🙄
They were in my opinion The "Best" Family Group to do American Bandstand next to The Jackson Five. Even My Father (RIP) was impressed by them to the point he turned on the Volume of The TV Set.
A girl named Ann at my school back in the 80s dressed just liked them. This group had the voice, talent, moves and styles that made the 80s. Great times back then and great music.
Born in '91 and this is on my top 20 favorite songs of all time. The Jets need more recognition for sticking to their roots and not becoming more modernized. Their still performing to this day.
Dance routines are awesome! This was one of my favorites back in the day. Keep practicing the dance moves and you will get them. You are never to old to pickup dancing and take dance lessons. The best exercise ever!
And remember...these weren't grown men and women. The youngest of the group was 12...they were all teenagers in '85. And they could sing, play instruments and dance their asses off!!!! Talk about a triple threat!!!
Teary as I watch this, in my 20s when the Jets had their hey day, they were cute, talented and fun to watch and they had the hits, the 80s were a great time to be alive and the music was the bomb, to quote the great Cher "If I could turn back time".....
Just saw these guys perform live this past weekend at an island music festival here in San Diego. They were so awesome live!!! And to meet them in person was even better. Love you guys!!!
Same here! Everytime i see their "Crush On U" Video it gets me so Excited & I always jump up in front of the TV & start doing the Hip-Leg Shimmy Dance wirh them😂💃🏽💃🏽🎶🎵
If you was a teen in the 80's. 13-19. You knew who The Jets, Debarge, New Edition, Madonna, Wham, Culture Club, Duran, Duran, and Pat Benetar was. There are a few others, but y'all get my point... The whole decade was kool man.
And just like that... I’m instantly transported to the living room of my mothers home with my five siblings the day it aired ... rockin my knees back and forth 😆 . I loved them!
Creo fue 1985 oh el 84 la primera vez que escuché esra canción y bi este vídeo ya desde entonses ah pasado toda una vida en la disco yo sacaba esos pasos que bellos recuerdos gracias por compartir
A Classic.....This is so the epitome of the '80's: the hair, dance moves, fashion & sound! :) -don't know if this is really considered part of 'The Minneapolis Sound', tho' - being that they are from Mpls
I like to play TH-cam videos on our TV in the den for a pick-me-up. Still remembered the choreography. I was 16 when their first album was released and I STILL love them. Always in rotation on my skate playlist. 😍 RIP Eugene.
I can't believe how fast time went by all these years. I was only 10 years old when this song came out , now I'm in my mid-50s. I will say I do miss music like this. Back then it was great and it was exciting plus it was enjoyable to listen too. Nowadays you're lucky if you can find a good song or two. I do appreciate what we had throughout the 1980s and I'm glad I grew up throughout the 80s too. Good times and great entertainment. Bands like this are hard to come by today.
Moana was 12 and Elizabeth was 13 when this video was shot. Dick Clark did a interview with the group on this AB episode and they gave their ages. I was shocked at how young they were. I agree with you that they sound very mature for their ages. I was especially shocked when Elizabeth said that she was 12 yrs old when they recorded "You got it all" (in another video).
They also did Soul Train and in the UK they did Top Of The Pops that also had American acts like Hall & Oates, Debbie Gibson, Stevie Wonder and of course The Jackson Five.
I wish they had done Top Of The Pops in The UK, The Kids would have loved them. If you were a UK Popstar and did that show you had arrived. Even My Father (RIP) was impressed by them.
This is from 1986. Moana is age12, Elizabeth age~13 & Kathi age15, etc. Here's the interview they did with Dick Clark right after: th-cam.com/video/UFw8drEFi8E/w-d-xo.html
I'm still a high schooler and the variety and diversity of artists and music stakes was so exciting and energetic and positive, I never took it for granted and I would NEVER trade that for what is happening nowadays, we were blessed well back in that era, nothing but TALENT.
OMG I was there when this was taped. The Jets were the coolest. Their music...the dancing....singing voice...perfection.
Omg 😱 are you serious? What state was this at?
@@Flysway7 Los Angeles, California. It was Three Years before it was cancelled.
@@laminage that’s amazing
you are so fortunate. this was epic...
That's awesome!!
Still hits me the same way today as it did in 85. Never get tired of this jam!!!!
Like minds think a like!!! Man I sure miss AMERICAN BANDSTAND😊
I hate when people think if you're young, you automatically hate music like this. or you "don't know anything about it." I'm 11 years old and all I listen to is eighties music.
+Fairabella Bloom I remember when I was an attention-seeking youngin!
+iOLY32 who's attention seeking? I hope you're not calling me attention seeking.
buddy if you're 11, then go out and play
***** you go out to play. And I'm not your buddy.
thata great! I started loving oldies music since a lil girl mainly disco,, classic rock and mod cool and hi fellow old music lover
I miss those years. At my 50 years old I consider my self so lucky to be able to grow, live and enjoy that such beautiful time, and with the best music ever.
I'm only a few years behind ya and have to say, I feel the same.
Joseph Schneider I totally agree! So glad to be young in the 80’s, we may never see anything like the 80’s again, that music brought everyone together for good times and great memories!
100% agreed! I just turned 48 and yes the 80’s was the best decade ever!
Totally agree
@@fordxbgtfalcon i turned 46. I agree 100%
that dancing and playing the istruments also is soooooooooooo badass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Straight 80's. Love It
I was 14when this song came out, today I can't stop playingnthis video
That side to side knee motion they do is so smooth yet I can't do it worth a damn. The girls are great
All in have hips
One of the most underrated bands ever..Saw them live..To move while playing and singing is certainly no small task. Such an awesome band
Sorry to burst your bubble but they were lip syncing. Least it's to their own jam lol
@@racing747 the concert I saw..they weren’t lip syncing..They were dancing and singing with a great deal of ad-libbing.
They are Touring in 2024

The big hair, yeah the good ole 80’s. Love it. The Jetts are amazing.
Oh I still love this at 41 years old....timeless
You know you're ole skool when you
use the word "jam" lol
Love it!!I 😍❤💙
They looked good back then. 30 years later, still looking good.
The leg/hip shake thingy can not be imitated or duplicated
The Jets and New Edition were so damn good. Vibes....
Right? You can't see it without thinking of Crush on You.
These girls were babies. To see the dedication at that age is crazy.
This is my childhood and I couldn’t be happier and relieved.
The 80s was the most magical decade ever and I’m so very grateful I was part of it .
Their song and their dress, epitome of my 80"s. I wish a time machine was real.
There is; it's called TH-cam.
Swear! You and me Both! If it was I would never want to return to these times of today! 🙌
Great song. Great group!!
Classic 80's gear right there! Miss these times.
A girl named Ann at my school back in the 80s dressed just liked them. This group had the voice, talent, moves and styles that made the 80s. Great times back then and great music.
I actually saw that episode when it aired! I really loved The Jets, and I loved the cool AB logo!
Noticed the AB logo tried to flash in sync with the rhythm of the song. I just noticed that and I too saw the performance on ABC in April 1986.
I saw it too!
Truly talented 80s group, able to bring it live with vocals, instruments, and dance.
McQueenPress American Bandstand performances were always lip synced and mimed. None of their equipment here is plugged in.
THEY DANCING THEIR ASS OF...86 WAS A GREAT YR
Very cool real family 🇺🇸
American group 😎

+Keith McNeill Loved this group, too! And there was yet another 9 kids at home, seriously!!

I loved the Jets back in 1986.
An era of music we will never get back...this was quite a cool band in its own right...had the right stuff.🎼🎼🎼
Take me back to 1986, please!
That LEG WIGGLE dance is on point the brothers killed 👍😂
I wasn't even around when this track came about but I love it sooo much!!
Take me back in a time machine x
Oh man, I used to rock the skinny ties and a blazer. Man the 80s were the best!!!
The Jets were and are so talented. They should have gotten more recognition.
The 80's and that SHIMMY move go hand in hand lol

😂😂😂
Awesome performance! Miss those days so much...
Awesome! I have a crush on you, jets. 😁❤

Nice music and a nice Time !!!!!!

They've got some dance moves
I wish they had done Top Of The Pops in The UK, The Kids would have loved them. If you were a UK Popstar and did that show you had arrived. Even My Father (RIP) was impressed by them.
They actually did
What I love about this group was they PLAYED their musical instruments!
But not on this performance…this is all lip syncing and pretending to play instruments 🎸
Greatest choreography
Man could they dance!
RIP Eugene.
