Lyrics:
I don't want to lose you, this good thing
That I got 'cause if I do
I will surely, surely lose a lot
'Cause your love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
Yes, I'm not superstitious about ya
But I can't take no chance
I got me spinnin', baby
You know that I'm in a trance
'Cause your love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
(You better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock)
Ooh, baby, ooh
It's no secret about it
'Cause with his loving touch
He sees to it that I get enough
Feel his touch all over
You know it means so much
It's like thunder, burstin' lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)

Yep, always loving disco.

Some of you have been listening to this since 1979. I'm just hearing it for the first time. I love it!
It's pretty great isn't it?
This music is absolutely brilliant isn't it makes you want to dance I was lucky and grew up with this music I was a DJ when this came out I got to play it at discos try doing searches for the gibson bros shalama uptown festival Sylvester you make me feel mighty real if you want to know about other song replies on here and I will give them to you

All it is is good music. Doesn't need a label.
I'm 65 years old and was crazy about the club music of the day ( and night ' till closing time of 3am !!! ) and it still gives me goosebumps ! lt would rock your whole body when it was played in the clubs with huge speakers and color sparkles off thedisco ball floating all over the dancefloor and that deep base thumping beat ! l'm there ! we would spend 2 hours getting ready to go out to the clubs ! we all got along and we all had a ball !!!!!!!!
I'm 51, so I was like 7 years old when it went out and in end 80's early 90's we were having big parties in a friend's basement with like club's setting, big speakers, light show, smoke machine, backlight etc... and when we were playing that song all the girls were on the floor dancing, it was a huge hit every time... I really miss that time
Boy do I ever remember these great dance times! It will never be the same!
62 here, we would skate as fast as we could when this song played at the roller rink
@@patog6408Good times 👍
Boney M would not be ashamed of such a song.
Even after all these years, I never get tired of hearing this song, it's timeless.
Same here🇮🇹👍
I agree with you!
I love it!🎵💓🎵
This is Better than the original
Or watching the video...
According to my mother, this is the best roller skating song in existence.
Lmao! Great roller skating song. This and tainted love..
Here we go again.. It's time to party on people 🎉🎊👍
❤❤ bring back DISCO
Hey, who remembers when life was fun and carefree and life felt like the mood of this song?
Yes 👍
ME!!!!!

No i dont
Me, a looooong time ago:)😒🤷♀️
I absolutely loved this song when I was a kid. RIP Amii. You were a legend
She's still alive
@@ClorissaDee-rh4ukThank God, I got scared for a second
She's not dead
Do you say this for all people over 60 or too impatient find out like all the internet generation that have never opened a book or skimmed knowledge from social media outlets.
Alive and kicking
Am I the only one who feels they can watch her dance all day.
My number 1 Disco Song tied with Taste of Honey's Boogie Oogie Oogie - 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💃
You have no idea what a huge song this was at the time. When they played this at discos, the whole dance floor would pack with dancers. It still sounds great. She was beautiful as well.
Ja, die fand ich schon auf der Kirmes mit meinen 12 Jahren super die Platte und die Frau hätte ich auch gerne mal neben mir gehabt :), jetzt bin ich 55 und habe mir die 12" Vinyl mal gegönnt. No War in Ukraine, Putin hear Musik und so kommt man nicht auf solche nicht vorstellbaren Gedanken :(
YUP!!!!!!!!!!
I'm dancing now!!!
Doesn't surprise me one bit.
True she was a real looker and she danced great, very mesmerising at the time and nowadays too.
Anyone agree that 70’s & 80’s music is the best 👍
PAWStively
Everything up to 95, after that music started catering to the post crack generation. I can’t relate.
I'd say it's very genre-specific. Some genres have evolved into something I enjoy more and others have just fallen apart.
and 60's too!
Throw in the 60's and you got a deal.
Perfection! From the performance, to the outfit, to the sheer sense of fun I just can't get enough of this!
Goodnessss ! Things Remind me of Amii's Song & STILL BRING ME BACK ! What Is A Woman ? Princess Amii , Thank You !
This is so good therapy in the dark times we are living in now. Listening to disco always make me smile :-)
Me too!!😎😍
I came here to find music to cheer me up and this was it!
100% agree
Absolutely
Epic comment sir and perhaps one of the most on point and truthfully stated comments I've read in some time.
Disco takes you away to a totally different zone of bliss. Music is truly a balm for the human sensory system
What an absolute Queen she is. Stunning.
the facial expression makes me think that is really a guy
@@lechsiz1642 Hope not
@@lechsiz1642 You wish, eh Brokeback?
You haven't seen many women have you
You've got to be kidding
Some things you never forget and one being is the Fall of 1979, walking from the parking lot towards the nightclub and hearing the drumbeat of this classic reverberating from an open exit door.
1979 was the best year for music since Beethoven dropped his Ninth
Oh yea, brings it all back I remember it well too! They’d stamp top of our hand on left hand if underage (to drink) we’d turn the corner & press it onto right hand then off to bathroom to wash off left hands ink haha, sneaky sneak sneak, what great times!! 🎉🎉🎉
It's in DNA of Disco Music, via Studio 54, New York City !!!
She looks like a superhero. Gorgeous voice, beautiful woman.
Great figure, I am so jealous!!!!!!
What a Frikkin' HAMMER...Wow
@@peteringargiola6323 we shall call her Thora.
@@triciajohansen3027 Don't EVER be jealous of anyone else...Just always be the best and most beautiful you that you can be...Besides, she's probably old now and wears circus tents! 😂😂😂
@@peteringargiola6323 thank you for your encouragement, Peter, that means a great deal. I hope the best for her as well. No circus tents!😎
Damn if this didn’t age like fine wine.
Oh yes.
It did because it’s a flawless presentation of a moment in time - 1979 when disco reached its zenith and the combination of energy, music, and style was unmatched.
i remember hearing it on the fairground in 1979/80 on the waltzers i was about 7 years old in infants school as i loved disco music 🎶 as my mum & dad played this song 🎵 plus donna summer and other 1970s/80s soul/disco/motown music 🎶 they was the better times to be growing up into as we had respect for people and our parents & elders & had manners!!! 🔊🔈🔉🥳🥳🥳
Danced to this when I was 30 74 know still dance to it on my zimmer frame 😅😅
Her voice, her beauty, the way she moves in that dress and used her arms and jewelry...this is an amazing performance and perhaps the best jewel of the disco age. Everything about it is flawless.
Touch wood!!!!
No knock on it !!!!
I was thinking the same thing! She's kinda awesome.
I concur 💓
And kudos for the production team
She and the production people are totally spectacular on this video!! Absolute perfection!
If you like this song, then you're my kind of people ❤️
I love the way she looks in this video. Love her outfit!
I love love this song👍👍👍👍
@@mollyjones4165 she looks amazing!
Of course I like this song a lot !!!!!!
Well, thank you!
Top Disco!!!!
These women of the 70s showed alot of passion and they had powerful voices

Favorite roller skating song ever!!
She was so stunning and her fashion sense was impeccable.
❤ My daughter loved this when she was a toddler. She'd hold on to the side of the playpen & bounce up & down.
I totally forgot how good this song is.
Well, now you remember! Good for you! Now you've got something to cheer you up when you need cheering up!
I listen to rock and metal but I have this song on my play list. Very good song that in my opinion is way better than the crap that's out today.
I've only ever heard it in UK adverts
Knock on Wood Lol
Electrifying. Keeps you rocking in motion. Loved dancing to it in the clubs. ❤❤❤
Социализм + электрификация🎉
Union Square ❤
Knock on Wood is a great song 👍
A beautiful artist !❤🌞👼
Psychodelic man im back in the 70's or some where else man ,im knockin on wood!!!
I was 5 when this dropped. The record played on repeat in my house. She was so fabulous and beautiful to me as a little girl. I’m here for the nostalgia. The song is still a hit.
I was 15. 💃🏻💃🏻🪩🕺🏼🕺🏼⚡️
Same!
13 here ... Germany
This is a cover ..the original is super old but this one's waaay better

My Dad gave me The Gift of Love for Music! I became a Radio Broadcaster in College. I worked Profesionally at 19yrs old. I had an 8 hour shift!
Ho quasi 60 anni e negli anni ' 70 c' era in discoteca questa canzone . La ricordo perche ' la ballavo anch' io ❤
Probably one of the top 10 disco songs of all time! When you think of disco, this has to come to mind!
If this one is the song for the finale, Sasha will win.
CAN'T WAIT
who's Sasha?
@@westaussie965 Sasha Colby, she’s a Drag queen, one of the best of all time. And just like I predicted she won the most recent season of Rupaul’s drag race with this song:)
She was absolutely beautiful. Still is❤️

1979 what year for music
Agreed.
I just woke up with this song in my head!! 😂
Disco for life
I'm in love with everything about this video. Her outfit,the visual effects, her dance moves,her voice.
Mary It was THE best # 1978/79 disco redone song.
She was a hell of a singer. Who didn’t wanna look like this...lol! I love that headdress
same here
Right?? Mesmerizing!
She's a fractal!
@@MegaHatLady People wouldn't have bated an eyelid. Thing is..she looks good!?
The way I forgot how stellar this song was. I came back to it thanks to Sasha and Anetra's finale lipsync.
I was 12 when this dropped woo good times. Still has me bopping
I was only 7
Perfect song for Sasha and Anetra
The song is over and I'm still staring at the screen. PARALYZED. Wow!
I know right 😭😳🤯😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫! Me too!
This song is now 44 years old still can't believe it I was 14 when this song came out but still sounds fresh as yesterday
This song is one of those that will be good now and in 100 years; it's timeless.
I was 12 when this song came out! Love it to this day!!!
How is possible? Youre 44 minus 14, so This would be 30 years Ago, in the 90's but in the descriptions says that the tune came from 79 years, please don't tell me lies lol
I was 7, but remember like it was yesterday.
@@tresestrelas386 You've got your math problems intertwined. OP said that the SONG is 44. 2023-1979=44. Also, if they were 14 when the song came out, then 44+14=58 tells us that OP is now 58.
this was music..my heart is beating..momorys..love this song..love the disco songs...
1979. Whyalla, Australia. I was in my final year (matric) at High School and on 'the Edge of Seventeen' see what I did there..? 😁 when the phenomenal and beautiful, Amii dropped this song. It was on the radio, constantly, along with two other massive songs of 1979, Hot Suff and Bad Girls, by the Queen 👑 Donna Summer. I remember, these and Knock On Wood being played at our end of year, school social, a fabulous night at the massive school hall and we all went dressed nice, not like these overblown, ridiculously costly, Prom nights. Absolute halcyon days 💖
42 years old. Fuck me I feel old but the joy of living in a time when music was this great is that 40 odd years later it still sounds the dogs bollocks
Nobody is too old for music. I remember listening to this when I was little and fuck time does really fly!
I'm 63 (talk about old) and I still remember when this first played at the Monastery in Seattle. Brought everyone running to the dance floor.
I was 15 when I first heard this one. Now, I am 57, and still love it!
It still is the canine testicles
You are young! Try adding 20+ years and that’s me now! I can still get down though🙂
Oh my,music was so good back then..❤❤❤
Disco one of our best periods!
Then,I'm 65 years old and I've been looking for this song for a long, long time and I didnt remember neather the singer or the title and I didnt want to die without listen it again, now I can rest in peace.
Summer of 1979...good times and good tunes!
YOU KNOW IT. SUMMER OF 79 WAS ONE OF MY BEST YEARS AND MUSIC WAS TIP TOP FOR SURE.
2020 im here!
@@Eva-kd7wi ME TOO
@@microminiskirt Loved playing this song in band!
@@maxables1748 DANCE TO THE BEAT OF THE DISCO HEAT!!!!!
I dance a lot ,to this melody .on disco for many years ago . Its wery good this one
This genre of music always slaps so hard. I don’t understand how anyone can hate on funky upbeat disco. This type of music always puts me in a happy mood and then I wanna get up and dance. Shits good, man.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think it's fair to say that not every genre of music appeals to everybody, and people are allowed to choose
This track isnt amongst the highest on my list of favourites I admit, but it is a song a like, or I wouldn't be watching the video, but its choice and not everybody likes this kind of music
this was a time when black singers didn't waste their talent on stupid rap crap. love this song by the way
amen . . . .but for those of us old enough to have actually lived it . . .many of us developed a rather juvinile hatred of 'all things Disco' . . .in the name of Rock And Roll . . . .and then woke up rather recently to just how ripp ass good many of these songs actually were . . .with a healthy portion of nostalgia added to the recipe, it becomes a meal fit for a king.
This is "Hi-NRG"
If you don't feel like dancing when you hear this song, there is something wrong with you
I would would call that person an ambulance, because she or he would be half dead.

Victoria Juniper Yes. Greetings from munich.😊
This song was so underground when I was a kid..... what a great time we live in that I can listen to this and see a video I never knew was made.
haloo.please i feel a danc ..but whit you ..me sweet..ok
I was 11 when this dropped. The late 70s was so much fun.
my mom would bump this in her Buick with her hair to the ceiling and her red lipstick an still does till dis day
Back in the day I used to work (and spend virtually ALL my waking hours on the weekends) at a disco. It was SO much fun and all my friends were there! Sometimes we'd go on break and we'd hear that Knock On Wood "triplet" beat (three drumbeats in the time of one beat) getting mixed into some other song and we'd all SPRINT for the dance floor because we knew it was coming, and we were willing to dance the 5 to 10 minutes until it finally DID get mixed in and become the primary song being played. Oh, how I miss those simpler, easier times.
Great memory. Thx. for sharing.
Hey, I have a question. I was a kid when disco was big, and so I used to play this song all the time, Barbara Streisand, Donna Summer. A lot of them. Anyway, there was one really great song where there was a policeman’s whistle in the song, and I can’t remember the song. I thought it was a Donna Summer disco tune, but I can’t seem to find it. Do you remember the song with that whistle sound in it?
She's still a gorgeous beauty to this day.
This was a staple of the fairground when I was younger, love this version.
Thanks Dragrace for intoducing me to this song sooooo good❤️❤️❤️
Who remembers when this song came out? What a great time to be alive..
I was a kid about 12 years old and loved skating to this.
(From on what I was told) I used to try to dance to this. I was 2 years old when this song came out I always thought it said "walk on wood"
Nov 2018 I'm still grooving
tom rogers I remember well- and I LOVED it!!!
Late 1978/early 1979
HOT!!!!! And I am old enough to remember the 70's...
greatest helmet of all time.
This lady had a beautiful voice and could had done more for us.
I was 11 yrs when I heard Amii Stewart and fell in love with this song in Mexico City 🇲🇽
Oh, yeah? Well I was 12 years old in a top "Ruta Hidalgo" Mexico City middle school at that time.
My classmates in the nearby "vecindades" (small communal living) would throw disco / tropical parties. Mexican society has always been liberal af in some ways. We got down to this stuff and the parents joined in: Le Freak, Boogie Oogie, You Should Be Dancing, Disco Inferno, Dancing Queen, I Feel Love, Get Off, I Will Survive, Play That Funky Music, Fly Robin, I Feel Like Dancing, etc.
But I had to go back to LA in 1981, right into the hair metal scene. 😎
HAPPY 61ST TH BIRTHDAY AMY "AMII" STEWART (JANUARY 29, 2017)
Was love 9 years old. Loved this song then.
This song got them out on the floor
One of the best disco songs.
Blew up my dad's back speakers in The country squire playing this song so loud.
Even as a kid I knew that this was going to be a classic
I'm glad I was a kid when I was young. lol
In 40 years kids will be saying remember when the pandemic was bad. No school, no work eat, sleep, play games and our music was great.

Spring of 79. Weekends at the Discos.
Definitely one of the top 10 songs of all time in my opinion!
Not too many remakes outshine the original.
This is one of those that does.
Good music.
put patrick hernandez in that top 10 too.
tuvimos el privilegio de escuchar la mejor música de todos los tiempos. nunca más habrá otra generación asi.
Seguimos teniendo el mismo privilegio, por que si lo estás escuchando, es que estás vivo por lo tanto, el privilegio lo seguimos teniendo, con nosotr@s jamás morirán, nuestra maravillosa música, por lo menos yo jamás he dejado de escucharlas. Vivamos tod@s nosotr@s. Los viejos rockeros nunca mueren.
Para mí la música de los generación es desde la que me acuerdo me gusta hasta hoy de cualquier época que me emociona y me dan ganas de bailar 💃
exellent tres belle artiste est bonne music le top

Sensational girl super song. That's another great!❤❤❤
One of the best DISCO songs to hit the clubs EVER! I spun the hell out of this track (EXTENDED VERSION)
This still sounds go after 42 years...Back when people actually dressed up, to go out...I feel 19 again....
People still dress up to go out. Maybe not conforming to your ideals or those of your time but times change. As this was revolutionary before
Now it’s a classic
@@ayesig643 You have no clue... People would dress up because they put on a show..
You ever visited a Drag Queen contest? They really dressed up. And I'm not even Gay..But I loved the entertainment..It was great...As everybody was part of it..Like a Rocky Horror Picture show...
Only thing close today is Anime Conventions..But they lack the music that came with it..
So the younger generation has no idea. They are not even a close imitation..The SJW robbed your asses..As if you did the stuff they did today.. They will assault your ass...
Good Luck
@@ayesig643 No, they don't.
@@LeeKeels I just now came back from a night out with my gal
I definitely remember dressing up before going out
And I feel like I'm four again. That's how old I was when the song came out and danced to it even then!😎
The reason why in the late 70's I had so many odd socks. Faf!
Absolutely fabulous! A blessing for my eyes, ears, and soul! 💖🎶
I have always loved this song, brings back memories of 1979.
It would be such an honor to meet Amii Stewart.
What I still remember about the seventies was how extravagant the costumes sometimes were. Why can't we have them again? 😀
This is my kids favorite song. I listen to this about 5 times a day.
