Amazing times when this came out. Can't believe it's over 30 years old. This was their first song and it was huge. Clubs, radio, charts. It blew up everywhere. This was such a good time for music. Very diverse, groundbreaking and fresh. New Jack Swing / R&B was around, Hip hop, Dance, House music. All exciting new stuff. Massive tracks in 1990 were: Snap - The Power / Bell Biv Devoe - Poison / Deee Lite - Groove is in the heart / C&C Music Factory - Gonna make you sweat. Just ridiculous, thinking of it.
NOW, JV. No more excuses. You have got to react to En Vogue performing "Giving Him Something He Can Feel". Gotta do it, my guy. You will not be sorry. 🙌🏼 Best women's group of the last *30* years, IMHO.
If you listen to this one( Giving Him Something He Can Feel) then you also need to check out the earlier version by Aretha Franklin. I love EnVogue but for this song I'll always go to Aretha
@@toxicginger9936 I honestly feel bad for Milli Vanilli. Rob and Fab were just as much victims of Frank Farian's predatory practices as anyone. And the people who created the music were good singers and musicians, they just weren't considered 'aesthetically marketable' enough, which has always been a problem in music. The Milli Vanilli solution was the 90s version of Autotune. Now pretty people sing whatever they can and pitch correction and Autotune churns out a product that can be sold. Real talk, a lot of those Milli Vanilli songs hold up, I think. I still think "Girl I'm Gonna Miss You" slaps.
This was En Vogue first single. Those black dresses are in the Smithsonian now. They were very popular back then. Those dresses they had on in "giving him something he can feel" are also in the Smithsonian
@@annettep1396 Don’t I know it. I was working at Limited Express at the time their music came out and the dresses were called “move something” dresses. Yes, women of shapes and sizes came in wanting to try. 😂
"Who's Loving You" is actually a Smokey Robinson song. He wrote it and the Miracles recorded it. He said that the song is so identified with the J5 that when he sang it, people remarked on him singing their song.😄
Yes, now "Who's Loving You" is now the most popular audition Song on The X Factor in The UK. Entertainment Weekly called Them The Supremes Of The MTV Generation. They also in their own way kicked the door open for many Girlbands in the 1990's from SWV (Sisters With Voices) Xscape, and even The Original Destiny's Child and TLC were heavily influenced by them. They sold Millions of Records but they came out of it broke because of some bad business deals. When they were in the Top Ten another Girlband called Wilson Phillips were also in The Top Ten with their own Song co incidentally called "Hold On". They are the Daughters of Brian Wilson Of The Beach Boys and John Phillips (RIP) of The Mamas & Papas. Carnie Wilson (The Husky One) loved their music. Also if you can, check out some of the other Girlbands I mentioned as well as their Version of Giving Him Something He Can Feel.
The Miracles, then The Supremes, then Brenda Holloway, then the Temptations, then the Jackson 5... the J5 version was really trying to imitate the Temptations version.
After this video, every woman wanted a little black dress...aka an "En Vogue" dress!😂 They are so good!! I miss when we had actual singers...TALENT!! They were produced and put together by two guys Foster & McElroy.
Yes there is. The mainstream music/media industry isn't the place to find them anymore. It’s not EASY to find them anymore, they don’t find YOU anymore. But they’re there, trying to be discovered independently. Search.
This is such a vibe! I always loved their intro and the beat of the song itself, sweet. Some R&B - Carl Thomas "I Wish", Maxwell "Ascension", Musiq "Half Crazy", Soul For Real "Candy Rain", Anything Brian McKnight...I have way too many lol
Yes, what a freaking intro! Then after amazing harmonic vocals they break out a badass, thumping beat. And yeah, they're showing out! Oh where did it all go😆😫
I wish that they had done the entirety of "Who's Loving You" acapella, TBH. My favorite cover of that song was done by Terrance Trent D'Arby. He really killed it.
Let’s not forget “ whose loving you “ is actually Smokey Robinson not the great Jackson 5 but no worries ! Also you must do envogue “give him something he can feel “ you should also try out SWV if you haven’t already.
One of the best intros ever! Another great En Vohue song that is often forgotten is "Just Can't Stay Away". I'm not sure if there's an actual video but the vocal performance is 🔥🔥🔥
Their debut song that started out a great career .. also check out: "Give Him Something He Can Feel" a cover of the Aretha Franklin Classic from the 70's movie "Sparkle" ..and the music video was a tribute of a great Scene from the movie .
Gotta love how you're surprised every time you do an En Vogue song. Lol. Gotta do their last 2 big hits. Giving Him Something He Can Feel, and Whatta Man with Salt N Pepa.
Terry did that on the acapella intro! See they're all amazing vocalists. The last song you reacted to had more of Maxine and Dawn having lead vocals, here it's Terry and Cindy.
They have the best harmonies, no lead singer. The most compete group made up of powerful female singers. They all take turns in the spotlight. React to: 1. Giving Him Something He Can Feel 2. Give it up turn it lose 3. Too Gone, Too Long 4. Whatever 5. Runaway Love
This was how they were introduced to the world. They came out hard! and I loved them back then, still do but I wish they would settle their differences and Dawn and Maxine come back and they at least do one last concert tour.
I WAS 15 OR 16 AT THE TIME THIS CAME OUT. TO THIS DAY I STILL HAVE NOT MADE TO THE END OF THE VIDEO. I'VE SEEN THEM LATELY AND THEY CAN STILL GET IT! LOL!
Still love this song! 😁 I remember when this was popular we went to Six Flags here in California and there was a group of girls singing it in line for Colossus. Intro and all. Very nostalgic 😁
1:37 Yelp I knew one of J's famous "hold up"s was about to cone out..:) hehe. J if you pop this song in your car, and turn it up, it will turn heads in the street. Lol it's that good.
"Give it up, turn it loose" is in my opinion a very underrated song of theirs. They have a ton of great songs. I don't really ask for songs from you. But I really think you will enjoy this one.
Big hugs from the UK 🇬🇧 🤗 Could you please react to Emeli Sande, Heaven 👌🏻 and Plan B, She Said 👌🏻 I think you would like both and it would be awesome to see your reaction 😊 You always cheer me up with your reactions ❤️ Thank you so much 🙏🏻 xx 💋
Ok, I hit thumbs up before I watched the reaction! 🙌🏾🙌🏾This video introduced us to the phenom En Vogue! Yes Sir! The acapella intro, BADASS!! FOUR LEAD SINGERS!!! AMAZING!! Enjoyed your reaction. Take care.🙂
Certified jam! ALL of these ladies have the vocals 🥰 ...check out a live performance of this song too 👍🏾 Edited: I don't know the male equivalent (😂), but shout out to video vixen/model turned actor Djimon Hounsou 😉
This was their first hit and a staple in the clubs, radio and videos. On Saturdays you couldn't have gotten tru a morning without hearing this song at least 20-30 times. You should check out their other hits like "Don't Go" Lies Giving him something he can feel Please react 🙏 to Part of me if you really hear their vocal skills you won't regret it.

I feel you on this 1990 was my favourite year for music, along side 1986....all those tracks you mentioned were definitely among my faves!!
NOW, JV. No more excuses. You have got to react to En Vogue performing "Giving Him Something He Can Feel". Gotta do it, my guy. You will not be sorry. 🙌🏼 Best women's group of the last *30* years, IMHO.
He’s GOTTA do it.
Love that song

YES!
Was just coming to recommend this!
Hands up if you were waiting like me for Jay’s face when the beat dropped after the intro 👋🏼
Remember, this is the era before Autotune. All of these women could really _sing._
That's why so much of our music was leaps and bounds better than todays artists. You *had* to be able to sing. ... Except MiliVanilli. lol ... >_

Right
People could sing then .. it wasn't all about how they looked
This was En Vogue first single. Those black dresses are in the Smithsonian now. They were very popular back then. Those dresses they had on in "giving him something he can feel" are also in the Smithsonian
Yep, every girl wanted an “En Vogue dress”
@@annettep1396 Don’t I know it. I was working at Limited Express at the time their music came out and the dresses were called “move something” dresses. Yes, women of shapes and sizes came in wanting to try. 😂
Crucial song for every 90’s mixed tape. Full stop.
Yes😎
Facts
Maaan what??? Fun fact Snoop Dogg's first mix tape song was this sample. The Hip Hop world tore this sample UP!
Agreeeeeed
Next En Vogue should be "Giving Him Something He Can Feel"
That intro was the first thing most of us ever heard from EnVogue. This was the first video/single. We were in awe too. These girls could sang!!!!
"Who's Loving You" is actually a Smokey Robinson song. He wrote it and the Miracles recorded it. He said that the song is so identified with the J5 that when he sang it, people remarked on him singing their song.😄

Terence Trent Darby did a great version of this too
The Miracles, then The Supremes, then Brenda Holloway, then the Temptations, then the Jackson 5... the J5 version was really trying to imitate the Temptations version.
There's the magic of En Vogue with Salt-N- Pepa singing Whatta Man
Yes!
After this video, every woman wanted a little black dress...aka an "En Vogue" dress!😂 They are so good!! I miss when we had actual singers...TALENT!! They were produced and put together by two guys Foster & McElroy.
I had 12 different ones!😂
More times than not MTV and VH1 would cut the intro off, so it felt like a special occasion when it was shown. I love that part.
yeah I heated when they did that
Facts
Have you seen "Givin him something he can feel" Thanks another BANGER!💜
BEST female group of all time. 4 Lead singers! Other classics with the original 4 include Lies, Runaway Love, Don't Go, and Give It up Turn It Loose
there aint no more smooth girl groups like this anymore
No more smooth groups period.
@@cflournoy1529 ikr!!! Wassup with that?
Yes there is. The mainstream music/media industry isn't the place to find them anymore. It’s not EASY to find them anymore, they don’t find YOU anymore. But they’re there, trying to be discovered independently. Search.
Each girl was an equally talented singer: they took turns.
with class & dressed!!! no sir ree....
Check out "Don't Walk Away" by Jade. Similar vibe, timeframe, girl group. The early 90s had that heavy New Jack Swing beat everywhere!
This is such a vibe! I always loved their intro and the beat of the song itself, sweet.
Some R&B - Carl Thomas "I Wish", Maxwell "Ascension", Musiq "Half Crazy", Soul For Real "Candy Rain", Anything Brian McKnight...I have way too many lol
💯
Yes, what a freaking intro! Then after amazing harmonic vocals they break out a badass, thumping beat. And yeah, they're showing out!
Oh where did it all go😆😫
Same time, same type of vibe: The Family Stand - Ghetto Heaven
Each one has a unique, beautiful voice. Best group of the 90s for sure! ❤
Still remember En Vogue and Take six singing a cappella together at the Grammys in early 90s and it was amazing
I still think you should listen to one of the best girl group collaborations, ever. Salt N' Pepa, with En Vogue, doing the song, "Whatta Man."
They use to mix this with LL’s “Boomin System “ in the clubs
“The cars drive by with the booming system”….Good memories
I think the original Boomin System was changed because it was too similar. Both versions are great.
there's an official "hip hop Remix" that contains LL Cool J's vocals saying "You know it's funky, funky, funky"
Love this song! One of those "best songs ever"
I wish that they had done the entirety of "Who's Loving You" acapella, TBH. My favorite cover of that song was done by Terrance Trent D'Arby. He really killed it.
Please react to 'Giving Him Something He Can Feel' by En Vogue
Another great song.
Let’s not forget “ whose loving you “ is actually Smokey Robinson not the great Jackson 5 but no worries ! Also you must do envogue “give him something he can feel “ you should also try out SWV if you haven’t already.
One of the best intros ever! Another great En Vohue song that is often forgotten is "Just Can't Stay Away". I'm not sure if there's an actual video but the vocal performance is 🔥🔥🔥
En vogue has a collab with salt n peppa called whatta man. You should check it out it’s nice
I remember when this came out. Loved the song!
Their debut song that started out a great career .. also check out: "Give Him Something He Can Feel" a cover of the Aretha Franklin Classic from the 70's movie "Sparkle" ..and the music video was a tribute of a great Scene from the movie .
Gotta love how you're surprised every time you do an En Vogue song. Lol. Gotta do their last 2 big hits. Giving Him Something He Can Feel, and Whatta Man with Salt N Pepa.
Don't Let Go (Love) and Whatever were really their last big hits.
What a throwback!
Not my favorite kind of music, but they do it so well; gotta give respect.
Terry did that on the acapella intro! See they're all amazing vocalists. The last song you reacted to had more of Maxine and Dawn having lead vocals, here it's Terry and Cindy.
They are in a league of their own!
En Vogue always burned up the clubs, no doubt. I also recommend Giving Him Something He Can Feel, you will lose your mind.
Awesome tune by this amazing group just brilliant
Two other amazing songs of theirs with amazing vocals "Giving Him Something He Can Feel", and "Don't Go".
This song hits EVERYTIME!!
That was way before the louzy autotune...They could pull off everything ❤
Man I have heard this song in years ❤️ 😊
The ladies sing like angels
103.5 Soul Classic does 1990's music from 12:00/1:00. Try reacting to Jade. Don't Walk Away.
Yes the song was big enough in dance clubs to reach number one on Billboards' Dance Club Play chart in 1990
Great production on this beat. Always loved it. Then the vocals from a group of women that could properly sing!
Love En Vogue. Can you react to - Giving Him something He can feel, it's a remake of Aretha Franklin's song.
Yay ,!!! I have been waiting for you to react to this song for ages , my favourite en vogue song . Amazing vocalists
En Vogue baby!! Still doing their thing performing.Sound great beautiful as ever.
They have the best harmonies, no lead singer. The most compete group made up of powerful female singers. They all take turns in the spotlight. React to:
1. Giving Him Something He Can Feel
2. Give it up turn it lose
3. Too Gone, Too Long
4. Whatever
5. Runaway Love
Music Excellent and beauty ❤️ these ladies set the bar very high and I love them💖💖💖
This was how they were introduced to the world. They came out hard! and I loved them back then, still do but I wish they would settle their differences and Dawn and Maxine come back and they at least do one last concert tour.
Next is Giving Him Something you Can Feel.❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
En. Vogue beautiful people. I met them many times.
I had the pleasure of seeing En Vogue live as they sung the star spangled banner a cappella at a Lakers game. They were amazing.
In New Zealand back then, this was always on the radio. I wasn’t old enough to go clubbing yet lol!
This was there introduction to the world. Let you know whats coming!
I love "Whatever" by En Vogue. It hasn't aged at all. The video is a work of art.
Stone roses. I wanna be adored. The intro is one of the greatest of all time. Between that and fascination street by the cure (full version )
You got me thinking now... The best intro of all time????
"Free Your Mind" is my favorite from them!
I remember practicing the dance with my friends after school in JH. Lol!
great reaction. try their song, Giving Him Something He Can Feel
I WAS 15 OR 16 AT THE TIME THIS CAME OUT. TO THIS DAY I STILL HAVE NOT MADE TO THE END OF THE VIDEO. I'VE SEEN THEM LATELY AND THEY CAN STILL GET IT! LOL!
Jay singing along at the end...
Still love this song! 😁 I remember when this was popular we went to Six Flags here in California and there was a group of girls singing it in line for Colossus. Intro and all. Very nostalgic 😁
1:37 Yelp I knew one of J's famous "hold up"s was about to cone out..:) hehe. J if you pop this song in your car, and turn it up, it will turn heads in the street. Lol it's that good.
Been waiting for you to discover this one. Knew you'd love it!!! ❤❤❤
Oh… also…Wilson Phillips - Hold on.
Killer 80s. But that’s so big you must know it already.
If you haven’t already, PLEASE review their song ‘Don’t Let Go’, it’s…wow. Thanks for another great reaction!
Yeah En Vogue is sexy and classy. Their song “Give it up, Turn It Loose” is groovy too!
So many good girl groups from this time - Jade, SWV, Zhane, TLC, Mel & Kim
I told you the intro was🔥🔥🔥🔥. They just completely draw you in with their vocals and then the beat drops.
Must hear Lisa Fischer (backup for Luther Vandross) "How Can I Ease the Pain".
Had a huge crush on all 4 of them and Whitney pin ups and all lol 😂
Another great reaction to another great song/group. You know we-your community of music lovers gonna recommend the best songs😄
Beautiful
en vogue - giving him something he can feel
"Give it up, turn it loose" is in my opinion a very underrated song of theirs. They have a ton of great songs. I don't really ask for songs from you. But I really think you will enjoy this one.
Hi J - have you tried any After 7? You should!
There’s a live Zoom version from about a year ago on YT too
SWV 'Right Here' is definitely one to check out. It samples 'Human Nature' by Michael Jackson
Big hugs from the UK 🇬🇧 🤗 Could you please react to Emeli Sande, Heaven 👌🏻 and Plan B, She Said 👌🏻 I think you would like both and it would be awesome to see your reaction 😊 You always cheer me up with your reactions ❤️ Thank you so much 🙏🏻 xx 💋

EnVogue Lies, Yesterday, Give it up turn it loose
Jay please check out the Stone roses - I wanna be adored. The into is probably one of the greatest guitar riffs of all time
The Stone Roses were way ahead of the curve with their sounds. "Love Spreads" was another track with a great chorus.
Great reaction.
Love the uniqueness of their voices.
Childhood memories for me with this one.
One of their best and the obligatory 90's little black dress lol
Destiny’s child could only wish to be as good as these girls…man I miss those days…such good music
Certified jam! ALL of these ladies have the vocals 🥰 ...check out a live performance of this song too 👍🏾
Edited: I don't know the male equivalent (😂), but shout out to video vixen/model turned actor Djimon Hounsou 😉
Its a shame they had so much in fighting because they were one of the best girl groups of all time.
I love how you said no matter who steps to the plate you know they are gonna deliver
these ladies had the 90s by the balls. one of the best female groups ever.
En Vogue over Destiny's Child every day of the week.
My best friend in elementary school introduced me to this song and music video (Video MusicBox on TV after school!). Loved En Vogue ever since.
I know you will love this without even watching it first! 😁
This was their first hit and a staple in the clubs, radio and videos. On Saturdays you couldn't have gotten tru a morning without hearing this song at least 20-30 times. You should check out their other hits like
"Don't Go"
Lies
Giving him something he can feel

Awestruck
More RnB!!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
