Fun reaction Britt, thank you! Yes the official music video is worth checking out. It has actor Levar Burton in it in a “cameo” appearance. Also a hilarious bit at end of the video with handcuffs. 😂
I'm late to the party! But this looks like Top of the Pops. After their debut performance the BBC switchboard was reportedly jammed because so many people rang in to complain about Larry Blackmon's bright red codpiece!
Arsenio Hall made an album under the moniker 'Chunky A' and Cameo did all of the music for it! You should check out 'Oww' or 'Stank Breath'. Great fun songs! :)
Great reaction. I'm from Minnesota. Let's get some Prince. "Motherless Child" is pretty good. The live performance of "Purple Rain" from his 1985 Syracuse concert is worth checking out as well. Let's get some Prince.
This song is go popular you could go to the biggest red neck bar in the deepest part of the south, and this song would get everyone up dancing. Even if they are almost dressed like the Pope.
The fact that you don't know who Cameo is makes me want to ask who failed you. 😂😂. Comon man. Cameo is probably the last super funk group. They had the 80's on lock!!
The most famous codpiece in the world.
One of the best songs of the 80's that got all butts moving, no matter what you're doinging- an original banger. 😂
AND.... you should check out Korn's remake from a few years ago. It's awesome as well.
1986
Cameo was a 10+ piece band up to 1982. The business changed and Cameo among others scaled down to 3. 🤘🏾😎
More Cameo! Funky and some nice slower jams.
1:38 skating🎉🎉
Fabulous vibe
OMG, brings back so many go times out club hopping! We had such great times back then!
I remember watching this performance as it happened, loved it immediately ❤🎶
A long , long time fan. My favorite memory is having a VIP seating at a live performance at the Park West. True entertainers
Such a great dance song. Oh it brings back so many memories!!!!
" Its the Goin Word " 😂😂 Shake it Baby !! My man is famous for HIS CODPIECE!! I heard him talk bout it in a interview. Funny stuff
If you’ve ever been to a skating rink in the 80s girl, you’ve heard this song
hahaha Such a classic from my teen years.
Candy - Cameo

Word Up just one of many party bangers. Enjoyable reaction as always Britt. Candy was featured in the movie Best Man, give that a listen.
Arsenio Hall made an album under the moniker 'Chunky A' and Cameo did all of the music for it! You should check out 'Oww' or 'Stank Breath'. Great fun songs! :)
I always said Larry Blackmon of Cameo and Larry Dodson of The Bar-Kays would have been one HELL of a duet!!
Steve Carell singing this in the 40 yr old virgin is just too funny.
Great reaction. I'm from Minnesota. Let's get some Prince. "Motherless Child" is pretty good. The live performance of "Purple Rain" from his 1985 Syracuse concert is worth checking out as well. Let's get some Prince.
I LOVED this song as a kid. My conservative Italian father did not appreciate the cod piece. 😂
😂😂

Check out "Candy" by them. You can't go wrong.
I’ll check it out
Remember Jordy from star trek the next Generation the series was on the video. This was his first appearance. 😊
If you are referring to actor Levar Burton, his first appearance on screen was actually in "Roots" in 1977.
Surprise cameo (😝😝😝) by Mr Reading Rainbow himself Levar Burton
Oh wow!!

No autotune back in these days, autotune was first introduced in 1997…..
The fact that you don't know who Cameo is makes me want to ask who failed you. 😂😂. Comon man. Cameo is probably the last super funk group. They had the 80's on lock!!

Autotune came out in 1997. This is from the 80’s
