Perfect description about the message in the song. I was in the barbershop yesterday and heard this. I can use this and send it to the next lady to show her I have good intentions.
We have to remember that Stephanie is not only a great singer she can also dance. She is also one of the greatest performer's of all times because she never gets old.
As a millennial who adores the 80's and just discovered this video and song, I love this too much. This makes me to happy. This is the epitome of the 80's to me. The pink! The style. And she and the guy are beautiful.
She'll get it. No doubt. I'm just shocked it hasn't happened yet but since she's still working the great lady herself will say she hasn't achieved everything yet.
Still listening to this song. That beat and synth bass is mean. This kind of lyrical content is what is needed for our black females not WAP. Stephanie is one of our greatest national treasures
Still can't understand how she got so rich singing the trash she puts out,well it's not really singing. Fake cardi..stephanie is CLASS AND SHE CAN SANG...
If Stephanie Mills had a movie based on her career Angela Basset would be a perfect choice. They both remind me of each other...both beautiful strong black women.
A White man...turned me on to Stephanie in the 8th grade..thanks forever...Mr.Halmeyer..my homeroom teacher at Sanford Middle School...he was in love with Stephanie...he played her everyday.. (so significant)been a devout fan and imitator since..the groove and it's soul is colorblind..🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The rihannas, beyonces, miley cyrus wouldn't come close to making it in the 80's much more true talent and competition from back then this generation of music artists are reprocessed and watered down lol.
I think that drunk in love song is lacking. Obviously one of her primary goals is to stay in the news, it makes sense but so much her music is lacking lots of quantity but not quality.
😐 I’ll have to admit. I’ve always respected Stephanie’s talents, but I didn’t think she had a chance in that battle facing off against Chaka. She fooled the hell outta me. I didn’t realize how many classic joints she had till she started going threw them. And I’mma 80’s baby. 🤦🏽♀️ I shoulda known better. 😂
I had the pleasure of growing up as a kid in the 80's. Listening to this music brings back so many memories. Now that I'm a grown ass women I can so relate to it.
I remember this song and the video by miss stephanie mills herself. I love this song and the video and she can dance as well. This little lady can do her thing in this video as well.
Love the message in this song, and its simplicity. I like that she knows who she is. Respects herself. : ) and just because he's in a rush, she not! That's so attractive and classy. This song makes you jam. Its coy. Its so STEPHANIE! : )
@@timswanston7177 Me too although I should've come out in 86. 87 was great because another one of my favorites debuted that fall,The Wonderful Miki Howard.
I'm a 70's baby so fortunately I was born from folks who lived and loved good music! I would love to know which 217 people couldn't groove to this jam!
Stephanie Mills deserves more recognition especially a life time award. This song is so timeless and evergreen. Been listening to it since the mid 1980's.
Who is here in 2024❤
I'm Here
Big up kim
DeeZ NutZ 🥜
Me!!
Yup❤
April 2024.. I’m 52 years old and I refuse to leave the music of 70s, 80s, 90s alone.
I just turned 69 April 15th and I remember jamming to this during the late 80's. Still sounds great!
52yrs old as well and I agree!👊🏿🔥
Couldn't Agree more! When Music was REAL!!😆😅
I'm 65 and I will never leave the 70s, 80s, and 90s music alone, my kids can laugh all they want!
Facts
Can we give this Queen a lifetime achievement award?
Stephanie is a living legend
💯💯💯
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sure she is!
M. Ashanti, you can add El Debarge too.
Prince always said Stephanie Mills was "an angel with a perfect voice come down to earth" ! Who am I to disagree with him? LOL!
This song is so classy, about a woman ,a lady, a girl respecting herself and her body
Yep❤
Shoutout to Stephanie & Cherelle, for making songs about taking your time. Maybe one day being classy, will be in style again.
That part
Perfect description about the message in the song. I was in the barbershop yesterday and heard this. I can use this and send it to the next lady to show her I have good intentions.
This song is so& nbsp;classy&alt;about a woman &alt;a&nsbp;
Being A Lady Never goes out of Style !!!
Ok
Say that again!
Never!!!
This new generation beg to differ
I COMPLETELY AGREE
Back when women had so much class and respect for themselves
Never gets old! Her voice is so awesome.
Miss Mills is the BEST
Absolutely 🔥🌹💖💫👑
Queen Stefanie, can sang it now, yessssss she can.
Word, DAWG!
I miss the days of classy women and SHE DID THE SNAKE!!!!!!!

John Reed
Hell no!👌👌
Her vocals were the bomb! Love me some Stephanie Mills.
Ditto x Infinity
Yeah u could easily re-release this video today....One of my all time faves....Stef jus too-too FINE💃
Stephanie Mills is such an underrated vocalist and Artist
Very underrated and I don't know why she is incredible.
I wouldn’t say she’s hugely underrated. She was invited to do verzuz and Soul Train pass the mic which is 2 huge gigs in a row.
I guess you were not listening to music in the 80s because she was a superstar and still is today .
She's not underrated at all
that's because she wears clothes and is sophisticated, not like some of these skanky artist today!
I'm here in 2024.
This woman is a vocal powerhouse. You get quality, class and respect. You go lady.
We have to remember that Stephanie is not only a great singer she can also dance. She is also one of the greatest performer's of all times because she never gets old.
That’s because she is an Israelite baby
Her moves are some of the best I've ever seen!
One of the best lady singers of all time
As a millennial who adores the 80's and just discovered this video and song, I love this too much. This makes me to happy. This is the epitome of the 80's to me. The pink! The style. And she and the guy are beautiful.
@ Broken Girl,Im happy this makes you happy..❤2,May,23
The 80's...the "BEST" era of music...sing it Stephanie
Yessss. I miss the 80s so much!
That Snake Squat move was classic, lmao.
Hahahahahahahah! Yasssss
😂 She was getting it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
For real that was too smooth
Class is self respect & self worth, Stephanie serving y’all young kids life lessons
Still loving this in 2021.. she deserves a lifetime achievement award for her music.
TRUE INDEED. SHE REALLY DOES.
She'll get it. No doubt. I'm just shocked it hasn't happened yet but since she's still working the great lady herself will say she hasn't achieved everything yet.
DEFINITELY!
Before. MADONNA, there was STEPHANIE!
ABSOLUTELY
Damm 87 was a good year for music!!
Rodriguez Martin 80's period!!!
The earlier 80s, 1979-1983 were the greatest.
Indeed indeed...yo man the 80's decade was some great music cheers
For sure .... Donna Allen serious another big tune from 1987
"I know that were living in the 80's" the year she released the song
All Stephanie songs make you catch feelings...
lois brown ABSOLUTELY AMEN! !
Facts!!!!!
HEY MS.I.BROWN, MS.MILLS GAVE US SOMETHING TO PARTY TOO WATCH OUT NOW IT'S HIT"*¿*"
This just makes you want to dance
Dam it!!!! That's all I'm saying..😍😍😍
Today's so-called R AND B singers should take notes ‼️
Happy 66th Birthday to Stephanie Mills! I love you so much! ❤❤🥳🎉🎊 03/22/2023
They don't make like this anymore. Makes me cry.
As a musician, that bass line tho, going against that beat??? Just can't ignore this tight groove. This is so nostalgic.
First time I ever heard this in '87, that bass line hooked me instantly!
She’s so petite with that voice ☺️ love her!!
So pretty too!
Geelin this song for mzny reasonz
I saw you in San Francisco at the Hyatt Hotel
She's rocking that one piece 👌
I love me some Stephanie Mills
She was lovely as she was back in the day, why can women these days look that lady like her
Same here
Me too
@@davidtookes9316 You mean why can't.
Micheal Jackson did too :)
Stephanie mills is 🔥. I was born in 1987, the year of this video and i feel so proud.
Me too ❤
If she didn't mention "living in the 80's" this song would've been timeless.
We need songs like this today
Right. Bring these perspectives back.
@@summerlyric506 i agree completely
She's got some wicked dance moves
they looked inspired by Michael Jackson are is it just me
@Keith B444 Jeep Rubicoon!! YES SIIIIIR BACK THEN AND NOW COOL STUFF ALL DAY EVERY DAY ILD AGREE"*¿*"
she and Jody Watley can dance
In California we say "Gnarly"....and when we say it, we mean "hella raggedy". 😂
@@pappagetti Wrong interpretation. Wicked mean good. Like, dope.
No autotune for her,shes the real deal...what a voice ❤
Still listening to this song. That beat and synth bass is mean. This kind of lyrical content is what is needed for our black females not WAP. Stephanie is one of our greatest national treasures
Still can't understand how she got so rich singing the trash she puts out,well it's not really singing. Fake cardi..stephanie is CLASS AND SHE CAN SANG...
Very well said! I completely agree!

@@aducille That's dope!
This was Stephanie at her PEAK!! This slow R&B groove was right in the pocket of what was going on in R&B...one of her many #1 hits!
I remember oh so get down sister.
Still listening to one of my favorite artist. It's 2023.
If Stephanie Mills had a movie based on her career Angela Basset would be a perfect choice. They both remind me of each other...both beautiful strong black women.
I never thought about that, but you're right, she would be.
Right...perfect match
Uh no
Never thought of that. Wow.
@@COMPACTTVHD Yeah, we know, but in her What's Love Got To Do... days, it would've worked.
A White man...turned me on to Stephanie in the 8th grade..thanks forever...Mr.Halmeyer..my homeroom teacher at Sanford Middle School...he was in love with Stephanie...he played her everyday.. (so significant)been a devout fan and imitator since..the groove and it's soul is colorblind..🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Stephenie Mills looks pretty & beautiful in this video.
She always does; and if she didn't, just sing baby sing! LOL
Universal035 Well she was always a pretty lady!!! and can sing
this woman looks hot and gorgeous with nude chest and how she dances.
Pretty is overrated a illusion that soon will pass
Yes she does
Her and Angela Bassett could totally be sisters! Beautiful.
They're both two beautiful black women!!
+Juice .. she's black ?
+xblatino328 I was thinking her and Jody's mom from Baby Boy.

Yellowjacket Hawky: The Ultimate Badass Yes
One of my favorite songs back in 1987. I was 16 when this came out.
I was 7 years old when I use to watch this on B.E.T on Video Soul with Donnie Simpson.
I was 4 and this is my favorite as well
Wow I was just born 😩😂

So much better than the "Drunk in Love" diva's of today!!!!! Her voice is timeless!!!!
The rihannas, beyonces, miley cyrus wouldn't come close to making it in the 80's much more true talent and competition from back then this generation of music artists are reprocessed and watered down lol.

Eh, Beyonce could've made it. She's talented even if overplayed.
I think that drunk in love song is lacking. Obviously one of her primary goals is to stay in the news, it makes sense but so much her music is lacking lots of quantity but not quality.
digthewarmth i want to dig your warmth! ;-)
Strolling down memory lane!
VERZUZ brought me here to enjoy her music all over again.. She is SOOOOOOOO underrated!!! Just a Talented POWERHOUSE!!!!
She can’t be that underrated if she was invited for Verzuz.
😐 I’ll have to admit. I’ve always respected Stephanie’s talents, but I didn’t think she had a chance in that battle facing off against Chaka. She fooled the hell outta me. I didn’t realize how many classic joints she had till she started going threw them. And I’mma 80’s baby. 🤦🏽♀️ I shoulda known better. 😂
@@CodyCole80 it wasn’t a battle tho.
if you love me; why can't we take our time and grow
She looks great in this.
That funky, sensual dancing! 👌
She is feeling the spirit in this performance!! Hands down one of her best!!
This joint cracked hard back in the 80s and still does today 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😎

A #1 hit for Stephanie Mills on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 584th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era.
Beautiful lady
Music with a real message and moral.
Absolutely! Well said
I know we are living in the 80's❤ this song rocks.
She has a great voice. She a beautiful entertainer. 🤗

the song told a story a real one
Now that's one sexy looking Black woman.......This classic is still breathtaking after all these years
Oh yes it is. Not all of this off-key garbage that we hear today! Only a few who can do it like this today. And they are far and few.
LOVE THIS COMMENT IT GOT ME SMILING, THANKS"*¿*"

Adoro Stephanie Mills, voz maravilhosa, baixinha poderosa!
In the late 80's I stepped into clubs with this kicking. Bond style. Toronto to Chicago!
Love the message in this song, and its simplicity. I like that she knows who she is. Respects herself. : ) and just because he's in a rush, she not! That's so attractive and classy. This song makes you jam. Its coy. Its so STEPHANIE! : )

prettymelanin exotic Agree. He never talked about them being together either.
One of the most insanely beautiful ladies of the 80's. Great voice, great looks.
When she’s says “I know that we’re living in the 80’s” as in 1980’s…OLD SCHOOL JAM!! Love it!!
She ain't Lying....
I'm a 70's baby so fortunately I was born from folks who lived and loved good music! I would love to know which 217 people couldn't groove to this jam!
Litetorture Those 217 ppl must be dead as a door nail 4SURE! !
Saw her concert a couple times, she did not disappoint!!!!!
Stephanie Mills deserves more recognition especially a life time award. This song is so timeless and evergreen. Been listening to it since the mid 1980's.
Natural beauty.Great body.
One of the great 80"s voices. She guided me through a paradise. Beatiful
