Watching this in February 2024 and loving it as much as i did 40 years ago. The DELLS are true legends. I'm grateful to have lived in everywhere I could see them here them and experience them 💜💜💜

The Dells are like fine wine , which only gets better with time ! You cannot say this about the groups today . The Dells reminds us of what music should sound like , no computers , no faking it, just pure love in the form of music . Marvin Junior had a voice that could move mountains and his voice moved people . We were blessed to have had a chance to have had such greatness in this man's voice . Thank you Sonini Nanini , for giving us this chance .
I am a 1962 baby and the 70s and 80s and some of the early 90s in my opinion were the best time ever for music. It seems like somebody sprinkled magic dust in the air. This music just never grows old.
My husband and I have been married for 36 years and this song means so much to us because even through the hard times we had to keep building on our love. After raising 2 children and now the proud grandparents of three grandchildren we have proven that our hearts is a house for love! 🙏
@@TreyMessiah95 Yep. But fast forward to now where not only is it weed and coke, but meth, fentanyl, crack, syrup, paint, glue, gummies, brownies, cough medicines, opiods, etc. Yes, I am aware, but...
Yes, Marvin Jr. did not spare anything when he song this. He let it all out. The songs of today cannot even sit on the same shelf as these songs. They are timeless.
Hillary Clinton should have shown up at the inauguration and when Trump placed his hand on the Bible opened her coat ala Eddie Kane Jr....and Bill shoulda' said to Trump, "How's it feel to be me?" Tha's gangsta.
Eddie King Jr. is a fictitious character as The Five Heartbeats is a fictitious group. That's the late Marvin Junior belting it out. The Dells are/were real.
They have good groups now but they don't sang like back then. They don't sing about Love, just a chosen few. They can sing live also. Dells Delfonics, Dramatics, Harold Melvin and the blue notes, Temptations, Smokey Robinson and the miracles, Jackson 5, Isley brothers, The Supremes, 4 tops, Martha Reeves and Vandellas, Mary Wells, Aretha Franklin, Patty Labelle, Gladys knight and the Pips and the list goes on.
The Mighty Dells stayed together for 60 years! They formed in 1952 and lead singer Marvin Junior still had that powerful voice when they stopped performing in 2012. Marvin passed last year at the age of 77.
The Dells stop performing in 2012 because J. Carter passed (tenor) -- they had promised each other as young men that if any of the member passed -- the would stop performing. (they kept their word)
Just to see my Uncle Chuck looking swagged out and upbeat performing in this video brought me tears 😢... Love you Chuck .. you a Rock n Roll Famer and Mighty Mighty Legend. R.I.Paradise King ❤
I never forget when I was driving with my friend and i was cruising in the car to this, and this lady yelled out now thats what i call music !!!!!!!!! LOL
This is a wonderful example of what can happen when you combine new and fresh production with classic, timeless talent. This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite movies, which I think was terribly underrated. The Dells are what GOOD music and GOOD singing is all about. Some decades later, they manage to sound even better than they did at their supposed peak. Sensational group. Beautiful song.
@@williamrussell1591 no, it's based on the Dells. This is well known. Credited at the end of the film and all... Their story is like many, but the film was based on them
Tessa Williams Nothing will never come close 2 this sound of music. The groups of this era did it from their soul and didn't need no electronic devices 2 enhance their tapings.
Giving me chills 😰🌪️heard this song all the time when I was young. Where did all the years go? I love… LOVE then. Now, I completely understand the need to be loved. They “Sang” the hell out of this song. Lots of people don’t think like this anymore. SAD 4-23-23…. Forever great 💯🎶💫🔥
The Dells...there is no other group comparable to them...Love them...RIP Marvin, you will truly be missed but your voice and the groups sound will go on forever....

+9437810 I agree with you.......Marvin voice is awesome.....Rest in peace to Marvin.......There's just some singers that make a group and Marvin made the group because he sang mostly all the songs with the help of Johnny......
I feel ya, but they can't get back to something that they don't know about. So those of us who did came up during period with this incredible music.. we have to show them...even when their kicking and screaming in their so called defiance ( us old heads gives less than a damn of their kicking and screaming ) and that's how The House of Love is Built......Build it up
I can just imagine the problems they endured during the 50's & 60's travelling by car to tour! Especially the south. The greatest group of all time and they stayed together for so long. Now this is real music! It is what everyone should listen to, Teddy Pendergrass included!
Junior Marvin, what can I say, just listen to his magnificent voice it tells it all. You have to born with that kind of talent. Thank God for TH-cam and for recorded music so that generations to come will enjoy his great voice.
the Strength of Marvin's voice and he was in his 60s when he blew this gem off the chain,May him and Johnny rest in eternal sleep,this song is a true show stopper
I miss U Uncle. U kept it real to the very end. Your spirit will live on in my heart forever. The thought of U brings fresh tears everytime, but the CREATOR knows what's best. I want to say thanx to all those who posted about Uncle Johnny. I can tell you for sure, it would make him smile and feel it was worth all he had to endure to make it in the music industry.
These young men went through a lot coming in their era but I have always known that the 5 heartbeats was about the Dells, no important, it was about love and dedication I love those young men
This song will forever be a classic thanks to the directors of The Five heartbeats for letting a fantastic group do the soundtrack we 90’s baby wouldn’t know good music , not only is it a great track but THEIR POWERFUL VOICES ARE BEAUTIFUL and their not even trying their just vibing 💯
At 71 it's June 2024 still listening to the Dells thank God for old school music 🎶 🎵

The younguns think that the five heartbeats made this song ! They have no idea who the Dells are !
The mighty mighty Dell's.
true that
Sad but true😄😆
Well technically, it wasn't Marvin Junior singing in the background of the film 🤷🏿♂️
It's up to us to show the youth every 45 and TH-cam video of the Dells.

These young guys need to listen to Marvin Junior how many could hold a note like that ..........he lays it out there............ WOW !!!!!!!!
They smoke so much weed, every note is done in staccato..lol..chopped up and short. They cant damn breathe that long!
Songbird Allen lmaooooo......so true, their lungs are fried from smoking so much weed.
@@ginadeniseallen2919 youre aware that people in the 80s and 70s smoke so much coke and weed also right?
@@Akumaa2000 Lmfoa i dont know why you all are dumb to realise that everyone in the 70s and 80s died from drugs lmfao

Eddie Cane Jr
@@rosewelton7743 Eddie King Jr. He just pronounced in a way that everybody thought he was saying, "Cane". Or "Kane". Or "Cain" ...
When you hear Jr blowing on this song. Man, you have to stop and listen. That's pure God-given singing talent at its finest. The Dells = LEGEND!
youaintneverlied beautiful word true legends
They don't sing like that more
gives me the chills mmmmmm!
AMEN
Yes, Marvin Jr. did not spare anything when he song this. He let it all out. The songs of today cannot even sit on the same shelf as these songs. They are timeless.
+Trent Cole - Eddie didn't sing this ...smile
This was The Dells, with Johnnie Carter and Marvin Junior
alternating leads.
Hillary Clinton should have shown up at the inauguration and when Trump placed his hand on the Bible opened her coat ala Eddie Kane Jr....and Bill shoulda' said to Trump, "How's it feel to be me?" Tha's gangsta.
Marvin, Jr. was no joke!
Trent J. Cole, Sr. U got that right
Eddie King Jr. is a fictitious character as The Five Heartbeats is a fictitious group. That's the late Marvin Junior belting it out. The Dells are/were real.
This song still give me chills
You just CAN"T get no better than that. RIP Marvin,,, you are missed.
Didn't know he was gone, true talent RIP
Alan Vanhook h1h1hhh1hhh1h11h c
Tee H Me either😕😕..I didnt know he was gone....R.I.P.MARVIN JUNIOR...Your voice was AMAZING😃😃😃
They have good groups now but they don't sang like back then. They don't sing about Love, just a chosen few. They can sing live also. Dells Delfonics, Dramatics, Harold Melvin and the blue notes, Temptations, Smokey Robinson and the miracles, Jackson 5, Isley brothers, The Supremes, 4 tops, Martha Reeves and Vandellas, Mary Wells, Aretha Franklin, Patty Labelle, Gladys knight and the Pips and the list goes on.
Michael Tanner the mess they sang about today is garbage,gang,drugs murder..no good

This is a wonderful example of what can happen when you combine new and fresh production with classic, timeless talent. This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite movies, which I think was terribly underrated.
The Dells are what GOOD music and GOOD singing is all about. Some decades later, they manage to sound even better than they did at their supposed peak. Sensational group. Beautiful song.

denise batts it’s also based on Temptations, Four Tops, Wilson Pickett, Sam Cooke, James Brown & Frankie Lymon

This song is classic for me especially in the Five Heartbeats wonderful thank you Dells

Dells in July 2024 appearing @my home and I am 74. Really miss the era of great male vocalist. Each group had it's distinct sound.
