Now you gotta listen to “All This Love” “Time Will Reveal” “Love Me In A Special Way” “Stay With Me.” DeBarge is one of the greats!! Loved them all through my teens. Brings back so many memories.
Debarge was a family RnB group. They are not Hispanic, they’re mom is black and Dad was white. The breakout star was El Debarge. I think they wrote their own music, played instruments. Talented.
James, the one with the ponytail upper left was married to Janet Jackson for a short period of time, before they got an annulment. They both were about 18 years old.
I heard he didn’t want to sing in that high pitch voice because he didn’t want to sound like his older brother, Bobby from the group “Switch”. They do sound alike!
Bunny DeBarge wrote and sang a song called A Dream. Tupac used the musical part in I Ain't Mad at Cha. Blackstreet used it in Don't Leave Me. It is recognizable in many songs.
@@deer.1478 Yes, I was kid but I remember my mom playin Switch on Saturday’s while we cleaned and the album cover was 🔥 FIRE - good times for sure! Those were some talented good looking dudes .
"Secret Garden" produced by Quincy Jones. Singers are El De Bardge, James Ingram, Al B. Sure, and the one and only Barry White. It's VERY sultry & seductive. ❤🔥
@@JemJam2976 Unless you've heard a remix, Tevin is not on the original version. They should do a review of Tevin's, "Always In My Heart" or his version of "Shhh"
DeBarge family's dad is French Canadian and mom is black American; love this song and so many people have sampled Debarge especially their song Stay With me; and so many people have used that line "I like the way you comb your hair, I like those stylish clothes you wear..."
"He speaking!" You got that right my dude. They used to really WRITE good lyrics to songs back then, with substance and real relatability. Songs like this really touched you deep down on a physical, emotional and even spiritual level. Timeless! Even today, when you listen to a song like this, it's almost like hearing it for the first time, that's how dang good it is! ;)
Lawd have mercy, I couldn't click on this video soon enough!!! El DeBarge has one of the coldest "falsetto" voices our there, but NOBODY compares to his brother Bobby DeBarge from the R&B group "Switch"! Search NOW for the group and listen to "I Call Your Name & They'll Never Be!" Make sure you have your seat belt on! Also DeBarge and El's solo album has bangers! Thanks for this reaction nephews!!!
Amen Amen!! The Family are from Grand Rapids MI. TV ONE did autobiographies on DeBarge and Bobby and his group Switch. They were a family of talented siblings but had a a lot tragic events in their lives!🎤🎼🎷🎹 I love DeBarge and Switch!!!
Their mother, Etterlene Debarge, is musically talented with a gospel background. That contributed to the development and nurturing of their amazing talents as singers and musicians.
Yes indeed! I had planned to marry James DeBarge once I turned 18 (said my 13-yr old self 🙄). But my heart got crushed when he married Janet Jackson instead. 💔😂
This joint never gets old. This whole album is fiyaaaa. One of the members, James DeBarge was actually married to Janet Jackson for a short time. Even before that, the Jacksons and the DeBarges know each others family. I believe that some of their children are in the music business too.
Yasssss you don’t stop that voice nope let’s talk after the song!! You got that right DEBARGE! put some respect on it! Definitely one of the most unrated family groups!
Yasssss Twinz I've been begging for them for a year. They are biracial white and black. Extremely talented family, but cursed with turmoil. Just say no to drugs. You need to listen to their brother Bobby DeBarge and his group Switch. Now he was the most talented of all of them.
Thank you for finally reacting to DeBarge! Please watch "Rhythm Of The Night". And check out the other DeBarge family members in SWITCH: "There'll Never Be" and "I Call Your Name".
They're a group of siblings from Grand Rapids, MI. Check out "A Dream," "Stay With Me," "Time Will Reveal" and "Love Me In A Special Way" by them and you'll hear the foundation for Biggie and Tupac, and a lot of New Jack Swing. Also check out the older brothers who were in Switch and their "I Call Your Name," "There'll Never Be" or "I Wanna Be Closer."
1st Yasss FINALLY DEBARGE. 💘 them 2 pieces. 💘 u El. The lead singer El his voice is like his eldest brother Bobby. That's where he got the falsetto from. So if U LIKE El his brother was even better. His brother was apart of the r&b group called SWITCH.
"I used to think about immature things, like, do you love me, do you want me, are gonna call me like you said you would, is this really your real phone number. But you know, I'm a man now baby, a grown man, and I came a long way... HehHeh"
DeBarge is from my hometown of Grand Rapids Michigan. In the late 70's and early 80's they played in local bars where we danced our butts off to them before they were signed by Berry Gordy. So many hits "All this Love", "Time will Reveal". -The Rhythm of the Night album became the band's best-selling work, going platinum and featuring further hits such as "Who's Holding Donna Now" and "You Wear It Well". SWITCH was their other band that had phenomenal songs such as "There'll Never Be", "I Call Your Name", and "Love Over & Over Again". Several had drug problems which was rampant in the 80's and 90's unfortunately. Bobby passed away. James was briefly married to Janet Jackson. Father was reportedly abusive when they were children. They're still around. One of my all time favorite bands who were overshadowed by the Jackson's. Eldra Patrick "El" DeBarge (born June 4, 1961) is an American singer-songwriter, musician and producer. He was the focal point and primary lead singer of the family group Debarge. " Popular songs led by Eldra DeBarge include "Time Will Reveal", "Who's Holding Donna Now,"Stay with Me", "All This Love", and "Rhythm of the Night". As a solo artist, he is best known for his unique high tenor register, strong falsetto and hits like "Who's Johnny" and "Love Always". He's also collaborated with artists such as Dionne Warwick, Al Green, Lalah Hathaway, Tone Loc, Babyface, Faith Evans, Quincy Jones, Fourplay, and DJ Quik. DeBarge is a five-time Grammy Award nominee."
Funny that y'all mentioned jackson 5,they we're at one point friends with this family, latoya and janet each dated one of the brothers and then Joseph Jackson made them compete against them, their father makes Joseph look like an angel, he was very mean and abusive to the debarge kids to the point they ended up struggling with drug addiction
The spring of 1983. This brings back so many memories of me and my friends walking to and from school singing along and listening to this blasting from almost every car that passed in the streets. They were the best back then. Good reaction boys.
We must have been walking on the same block lol!! 1983...I commented the same, so many memories from my teens. Songs and artists like these were always playing in the background of our lives. Whatever happened to real music?
What a lot of people don’t realize is that there are 2 lead singers on this song; Randy starts it off and El finishes it. Please react to Rhythm of the Night, All This Love, Love Me in a Special Way and A Dream, which has been sampled by multiple artists.
I can't explain how this one song chaged my life! I was blown alway! I still remember the first time I saw them on American Bandstand! 12 years old going crazy in my living room! Crazy over El!🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍😜🤪🤪😜😛
El DeBarge’s voice is one of a kind. He’s easy on the eyes, too. Lol. Check out his brother, Bobby DeBarge from the group Switch. You won’t regret it. 🤗🤗
This made my night. More Debarge please! Besides the other songs mentioned, other good ones are “All This Love,“ which was one of their more popular ones, “Who’s Holding Donna Now, and “Rhythm of the Night.”
This talented family of brothers & one sister, were one of the best 80's obsessions you could have!! DeBarge....one name alone & ALL the 80's tickles, giggles, crushes, blushes & wannabes, come flooding out!!!🤩🤭😅🤗☺️💗😍
You boys have come into one of the best of the best! I'm so glad you guys enjoyed them, they are one of my absolute favorites!!! Can't go wrong with any of their songs.
I knew you were gonna like this! When I saw the notification that you were doing DeBarge, I couldn't get on youtube fast enough!!!! Yes More More More DeBarge!
@@shellyj987 Yessss Second time around!! The second time around . Ohhh the second time is so much better baby. The second time around . and I'll make it better than the first time. Not like the first time . Not like the first time. Not like the first time. Talkin bout the second time. Sing it with me!! lol
DeBarge is probably one of the most sampled groups in hip hop. Check out “ A Dream” - you’ll recognize the hook right away. Same with “ A Special Way”. El DeBarge has the best falsetto / voice in R&B
I haven't even watched yet and I'm already excited! Debarge is amazing and so many of their songs have been sampled through the years! Okay gonna watch you guys now 😂.
Listen to DeBarge love me in a special way, and Time will reveal! El DeBarge gets down! Been a fan since I was 10 years old! Now, almost 50! That's how long I have been a Debarge fan! Great music they made!! And don't forget Switch, Bobby DeBarge, they'll never be...
The film The Last Dragon features Rhythm of the Night by them. You would love the movie about a young black martial artist who falls for a singer played by Vanity.
You have discovered a gem among gemstones.. El Debarge is the lead singer and the members are all family. I won’t say anymore than they have more for ya’ll to discover.
This is one of my favorite Debarge songs! Let's hear some Switch...There'll Never Be or I Call Your Name. Also, I'd love for you to react to Stacy Latissaw- Let Me Be Your Angel.
Gentlemen, Greetings from Alaska. You must know when I need to be uplifted I turn to your TH-cam channel. I'm 60 years old and your reactions make me happy. They bring back the best memories of growing up. I cry and laugh and jump out of my chair in sheer delight. Ol' school music really is the best. So much history behind it. Thank you for making me so incredibly happy. I love you!
Lol, you guys are so fun to watch!!! Debarge is a fantastic 80's group!! I'm still listening to them!! They've got a lot of songs I like!! Another excellent group is Shalamar. Anything by them is pretty cool!!! 👍🏻😊
El DeBarge is a beast!! He still sounds amazing! I've seen him live and he puts on a great show! They all are so talented. Fun fact, that's not El who starts off the song, it's another brother, Randy! They have two other brothers who were in the group Switch! Very similar sound..."There'll Never Be" "I Call Your Name"...
Brings back so many memories of family reunions and seeing my Mom, Aunts and Uncles vibe to their generational music. I know this song from that..., but my favorite memory is watching and listening to my mom sing every word to “I call your name,” by SWITCH. I was like, “yes, Ma! “ Lol love your reactions.
Watching this reaction again! I must say, Debarge holds a very special place in the hearts of my generation, and it really does our hearts good to see your generation enjoying them so much the same as we did. Their music was truly top tier in the R&B and Pop genres. They are all brothers and sisters, btw, and they wrote the majority of their music: both lyrics and instrumental arrangements. :)
Debarge is everything! You will not find a bad song from then. Look up the group Switch “I call your name” is the same lead singer. That is a monster r&b classic.
@@pillar26 😅. Oh ok. Yeah brothers Bobby and Tommy were in Switch. They had albums prior to DeBarge. El is great though, love him; good solo career after leaving the family group.
"I used to think about immature things, like, do you love me, do you want me, are gonna call me like you said you would, is this really your real phone number. But you know, I'm a man now baby, a grown man, and I came a long way... HehHeh"
El DeBarge has one of the most underrated voices. His falsetto is sublime. Just like his brother Bobby’s-May he Rest In Peace. This family went through so much. Abuse at the hands of their father. Drug addiction. Prison. It’s sad that they had to go through these things. But their talent is undeniable.
El Debarge’s falsetto is one of the best!
His brother Bobby's is one of the best of all time
His brother Bobby's was even better
Agree 🇨🇦❤️
Bobby encouraged El to sing the falsetto.
I kind of agree…he is the best. Watch his solo live videos.❤️
Now you gotta listen to “All This Love” “Time Will Reveal” “Love Me In A Special Way” “Stay With Me.”
DeBarge is one of the greats!! Loved them all through my teens. Brings back so many memories.
If they listen to the songs you just listed. They will be fans for life
@JanetScott For certain!!
Yesssssss honey!!!!
YES!!!
Yessss all of these
Debarge was a family RnB group. They are not Hispanic, they’re mom is black and Dad was white. The breakout star was El Debarge. I think they wrote their own music, played instruments. Talented.
I heard one of the guys was married to Janet Jackson for a while, do you know if its true?? It could've been El.
James, the one with the ponytail upper left was married to Janet Jackson for a short period of time, before they got an annulment. They both were about 18 years old.
@@ltgshyne Thanks for confirming that. I just wasn't sure. They were much too young. Cool, thanks again!
Fun fact: all of them are gangsta and quick to swing on you (Bunny included). They grew up kinda ruff and loved to fight lol!
@@greenbeans9388 Exactly total opposite from the Jackson five klan.
My young brothers, you just witnessed a classic.
Amen!!!
DeBarge is a family-brothers and sister. This whole album was 🔥.
They had other sisters who don't sing.
@@brownin329 I was just referring to the group. But I do know there are other siblings. 😊
Period
That album was life to a teenager back then!!!❤️
Yasss
El Debarge's voice is a gift from god. He's recovered from damn near everything and his voice is still on point after all of these years.
Randy is the lead El does the chorus and finishes the song
I am an old lady (50) and this song is one of my favorite songs ever!!!
50 is the new 30. 😉
I'm 50 too, and I still jam every time I hear this song. By the way, we're not old...we're seasoned 😁🤣
I just turned 50. Thanks. 😐 jk
50 ain't old. You're well seasoned.
@@cfreemful 😁 🙌🙌
He had to be talked into singing in that high voice . He didn't want to do it . Thank goodness they convinced him. Absolutely great song !
Facts!!!!
I heard he didn’t want to sing in that high pitch voice because he didn’t want to sound like his older brother, Bobby from the group “Switch”. They do sound alike!
@@rebeccas.3318 And because of MJ and Prince. He didn't wanna come across as trying to be like them.
@@rebeccas.3318 I forgot who told him, “You’ll be lucky if you ever sound like Bobby!”
@MaryLou913 well El was lucky cuz he sounds a LOT like big brother Bobby 😊
Bobby and Tommy DeBarge were in the band Switch. You need to check them out “There Will Never Be A Better Love” or “I Call Your Name”
Don't forget Chico!
I have 2 switch albums on vinyl. They were the !@#$%.
YES!!! Switch was amazing!
I loved Switch!
“ I Wanna Ne Closer”Closer and “Calling All Girls ,” showcase Philip Ingram and Bobby’s vocals nicely also.
Bunny DeBarge wrote and sang a song called A Dream. Tupac used the musical part in I Ain't Mad at Cha. Blackstreet used it in Don't Leave Me. It is recognizable in many songs.
Mary J Blige also used it on her version of "A Dream".
@@lexboi87 Alex 😯! I just listened to Mary J's version. It is fire 🔥🔥🔥! I thought I knew something about everything 🤷🏽♀️ Thanks
Its funny everyone you mentioned would be before these kids time. Still more recent samples though.
She commented on a switch reaction they did that was pretty damn cool
@@atownshawtypimp1 I'm glad you told me that. 😊 Thanks
IT’S ABOUT TIME!! Wait until you listen to SWITCH!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Two members of Switch are the elder brothers of DeBarge.
YEAH!!!!
OMGGGGG YESSSSSSSSSS I have been commenting about SWITCH on here but they don’t hear me though!
@@akastarchild yep!
@@dcysivemedia3700 Me too...They have to check out Switch
RIP Bobby De Barge from Switch. You call my name is a classic. This is my moms and aunties music.
I Call Your Name. I still listen to my Switch CD.
And "There'll never be" is one of my favorites!!
@@ariannahardy6476
I really like I Want to be Closer too. Just about all of Switch's music was good.

"Secret Garden" produced by Quincy Jones. Singers are El De Bardge, James Ingram, Al B. Sure, and the one and only Barry White. It's VERY sultry & seductive. ❤🔥
I knew I heard Barry White,,,, What a Voice they have
That’s one of the greatest collaboration songs ever!!! Definitely a must listen to!
Tevin Campbell is on it too

DeBarge family's dad is French Canadian and mom is black American; love this song and so many people have sampled Debarge especially their song Stay With me; and so many people have used that line "I like the way you comb your hair, I like those stylish clothes you wear..."
Omg, have you seen Southpark Shorty sing this?! She cracks me up! She sing it almost better then El. 😉 😅😂😂
They are siblings and biracial. Most importantly mad talented and part of my childhood soundtrack. "Who's Johnny she says."
Yes!
Still say that and #5 is alive
And smiled in her special way 🎵

"He speaking!" You got that right my dude. They used to really WRITE good lyrics to songs back then, with substance and real relatability.

No questioning that likelihood!? 🤯
Debarge-Stay With Me and Love Me In A Special Way

They really really like it!
Their mother, Etterlene Debarge, is musically talented with a gospel background. That contributed to the development and nurturing of their amazing talents as singers and musicians.
I was OBSESSED with DeBarge when I was younger!!!!!!!! Absolutely OBSESSED!!!!!!!
He was cute! Who didn't have a crush 🥰 on him???

Secret garden and I call your name girl my favs!!
Yasssss you don’t stop that voice nope let’s talk after the song!! You got that right DEBARGE! put some respect on it! Definitely one of the most unrated family groups!
Biajsm, they had mad talent but fell apart as a unit. Trauma and narcotics are a beast 👹😢
Yasssss Twinz I've been begging for them for a year. They are biracial white and black. Extremely talented family, but cursed with turmoil. Just say no to drugs. You need to listen to their brother Bobby DeBarge and his group Switch. Now he was the most talented of all of them.
I just said the same thing. It’s definitely been a year.
They looked for an escape from their father's unrelenting, sadistic cruelty.😢
🎶💙🎶
Yes, Def Check out the UNSUNG about them - just heartbreak the whole way through
El looked up to Bobby so much. They both sounded so much alike when they sang.
Thank you for finally reacting to DeBarge! Please watch "Rhythm Of The Night". And check out the other DeBarge family members in SWITCH: "There'll Never Be" and "I Call Your Name".

Listen to the group Switch. They are El DeBarge's brothers. The song is There'll never be.
"I used to think about immature things, like, do you love me, do you want me, are gonna call me like you said you would, is this really your real phone number. But you know, I'm a man now baby, a grown man, and I came a long way... HehHeh"

@@maryewilson2009 I know right? The music back then made you 💃! Happy.
You Make Me Feel Brand New by The Stylicists PLEASE!
DeBarge is probably one of the most sampled groups in hip hop. Check out “ A Dream” - you’ll recognize the hook right away. Same with “ A Special Way”. El DeBarge has the best falsetto / voice in R&B
Smooth blending background voices...easy listening ❤
Smooth El Debarge" you send chills up my spine"... All their songs are great.❤
I haven't even watched yet and I'm already excited! Debarge is amazing and so many of their songs have been sampled through the years! Okay gonna watch you guys now 😂.
Always loved this song guys! Glad u did too!
Great and underrated song
Good memories from this song. DeBarge was that group in 80's Y'all got to listen to " Love me in a special way" and "All this love"
This song is timeless, I still listen to it to this day. El Debarge showed out on this song!
Listen to DeBarge love me in a special way, and Time will reveal! El DeBarge gets down! Been a fan since I was 10 years old! Now, almost 50! That's how long I have been a Debarge fan! Great music they made!! And don't forget Switch, Bobby DeBarge, they'll never be...
The film The Last Dragon features Rhythm of the Night by them. You would love the movie about a young black martial artist who falls for a singer played by Vanity.
El darbarge.....that group is fantastic!!!
You have discovered a gem among gemstones.. El Debarge is the lead singer and the members are all family. I won’t say anymore than they have more for ya’ll to discover.
Randy is
I call your name and there’ll never be a better love
This is one of my favorite Debarge songs! Let's hear some Switch...There'll Never Be or I Call Your Name. Also, I'd love for you to react to Stacy Latissaw- Let Me Be Your Angel.
Let Me Be Your Angel; YES!!!😊
Randy on the lead and El kills it at the end...they have dope songs and a couple of major Hip Hop samples from their songs.
That was My Favorite Group when I was in High School.
@donereally I was Class of 89
I love you guys, from the 1977 Disco Queen.
I was wondering when you’d get to this!
Timeless and your reaction proves it
All this Love
Time Will Reveal
Love me in a special way
They're all bangers.
There were 2more Debarge bro's in a group called Switch DA BOMB!!!!!💕🤩
Twins...y’all need to make this a DeBarge weekend. You’re helping by bringing us back the memories of our childhood!! More reactions!
Gentlemen, Greetings from Alaska. You must know when I need to be uplifted I turn to your TH-cam channel. I'm 60 years old and your reactions make me happy. They bring back the best memories of growing up. I cry and laugh and jump out of my chair in sheer delight. Ol' school music really is the best. So much history behind it. Thank you for making me so incredibly happy. I love you!
Lol, you guys are so fun to watch!!! Debarge is a fantastic 80's group!! I'm still listening to them!! They've got a lot of songs I like!! Another excellent group is Shalamar. Anything by them is pretty cool!!! 👍🏻😊
Men! Thanks for this video. Debarge and El are awesome! We love them! And El DeBarge is still performing!
El DeBarge is a beast!! He still sounds amazing! I've seen him live and he puts on a great show! They all are so talented. Fun fact, that's not El who starts off the song, it's another brother, Randy! They have two other brothers who were in the group Switch! Very similar sound..."There'll Never Be" "I Call Your Name"...
James and Mark
Gotta listen to Switch “I call your name” El DeBarge’s brother Bobby’s falsetto is even tighter!
You'll need to react to Klymaxx-The Men All Pause and Meeting In The Ladies Room also by Klymaxx
I'd Still Say Yes
I like their slow jam "I Miss You"
Brings back so many memories of family reunions and seeing my Mom, Aunts and Uncles vibe to their generational music. I know this song from that..., but my favorite memory is watching and listening to my mom sing every word to “I call your name,” by SWITCH. I was like, “yes, Ma! “ Lol love your reactions.
Listen to "Wrapped around my finger". By the Police. It's a banger!🎧🎶🎶🎶🎶
Twins Thank You For Finally discovering DeBarge. Lead Singer is El DeBarge !! What A Beautiful Voice.
Y'all are gonna love this one
Watching this reaction again! I must say, Debarge holds a very special place in the hearts of my generation, and it really does our hearts good to see your generation enjoying them so much the same as we did. Their music was truly top tier in the R&B and Pop genres. They are all brothers and sisters, btw, and they wrote the majority of their music: both lyrics and instrumental arrangements. :)
Debarge is everything! You will not find a bad song from then. Look up the group Switch “I call your name” is the same lead singer. That is a monster r&b classic.
The lead singer of Switch was their older brother Bobby.
@@MsMadAboutMusic thanks I was today years old learning that wasn’t El.
@@pillar26 😅. Oh ok. Yeah brothers Bobby and Tommy were in Switch. They had albums prior to DeBarge. El is great though, love him; good solo career after leaving the family group.
"I used to think about immature things, like, do you love me, do you want me, are gonna call me like you said you would, is this really your real phone number. But you know, I'm a man now baby, a grown man, and I came a long way... HehHeh"
DeBarge! That's my song I grew up listening to this own clean up Saturdays. My mom always played their music. I like their song "Rhythm of the Night"
Check out “All This Love” by them
El DeBarge has one of the most underrated voices. His falsetto is sublime. Just like his brother Bobby’s-May he Rest In Peace. This family went through so much. Abuse at the hands of their father. Drug addiction. Prison. It’s sad that they had to go through these things. But their talent is undeniable.
