This bass player needs a life time achievement award 😮
Is it Lou 'Thumbs' Johnson?
@@Mugwort_Sage-Reef Freddie Washington.
Indeed!!❤Y
"Ready" Freddie Washington
@@danmccarthy4700 thank you. that is Freddie Washington on BASS.
I am 70 years old. When this song came out, I was around 30 something and still had a very youngish vib. Today, this song came on the radio as I parked my car to have a hair cut. I stayed in the car to hear the entire song on LOUD, even though it made me a little late. Priorities!!!
This song is always a priority!
Will Christie - Good for you! I would have done the same! This song has been in my head for the last 2 days. It came out of nowhere! It has always been one of my favorites!
I've done that before and I have no shame about it! 😁
Lol, if I had been there I would have joined you
I loved your Christmas Village video, more please.
one of the best basslines in music.
Its good
You know its a good bassline when its panned to the right im not sure why though
@@alexrinaldi3257 " to help you to remember.. "
Go listen to 'There it is' by Shalamar
@@alexrinaldi3257 This song was one of the greatest hits of its time
A true classic !
The bassline is still one of the most recognizable in music history.
is this the beginning of jersey club ?
@@nerrahhNot Jersey Club
Memories of the year and the things I do see you soon and I love you
Reminds me of Men in Black
Yeah and you have to thank Will Smith for that!
If you're reading this, you have a damn good taste in music.
Thank you, you too 😋
@@Aryantics I'm glad you also like classics!
@@martinlim00 as long as it is good to me, I like it! No matter the language 💖💃🏾
@@Aryantics well then, cheers to that!
Straight up!! Every body should lighten up and get the funk out their face!!!!!!!
THAT BASS IS A MASTERPIECE
Steady Freddie....
It is!

I'm 72 so I lived this music. I don't have to go back because I never really left.
You are lucky
I’m 60. My boyfriend showed me this song. Loved her. He was in a band, 😁 bass.
I don't have to go back because I never left bahaha great I'm using that 🔥
I'm so glad the internet exists
Some of us grew up as kids to this, I’m 43 love the 80’s & 90’s🤔era!!
One of the best bass slap ever!

AWESOME BASE LINE....TURN IT UP TO THE MAX....LET THE WINDOWS & ROOF SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLE...BADARSE TUNEEE..
It definitely is 😄
Bass Guitar is undoubtedly the most underrated instrument of all time
@@johnnymiller7259 Yeah it sounds like it's trying to say something
Only for normies , anyone who has played in a band knows how important bass is .
@@atgwiuz Absolutely true, it's like salt. No one feels its presence but its absence really takes away the life of the song.
@@samuelmathew3179 yep ,all the riffs and beats get enhanced with the bass. Being a guitarist it's as important as any other role .
@@atgwiuz Yeah, Bass also help drummers alot
I wish have a friend at my age I can vibe with this kind of music
A bass line that could strip paint.
I have no idea what that means but at the same time it makes total sense

My mom used to put this on in the house when she would clean I was 6 or 7 and she would swoop me up and sing and dance with me. Good memories.
So sweet, how old is your mom now?
so cute
❤❤❤
@@teresamance8381 she is 46 give or take a few years
Awesome story.... God Bless Hope your mom still dances with you!
This song will never get old.
👍
Im 18, I just know how to appreciate good music
Never lose that gift. This is from an era where you actually had to have some talent.
Just keep listening the music, and dont brag too much for it. You just like a type of music, you did not find the cure to cancer...
I love this song. 71 yrs old. Still dance to this. 😊
Difficile dimenticarla...era felicita'👍💯✨✨✨🌙
wow im just 20 i also like this song❤
Nots no
Seriously, the funkiest groove ever in this one. A totally underrated phenom of a song.
Us music lovers from back in the day know this was, and is the jam. 80s classic!
Not underrated anymore. See it blow up on Facebook, Instagram, tic tok. Everyone’s dancing to this beautiful classic
Sickest bass lines
Never was underrated though! If you're old enough to remember, it was a huge huge, massive hit
@@fallguy4209 that and Let's Groove by Earth, Wind and Fire...like young folk dancing, smiling, and having a good time enjoying the groove. I'm stunned in a good way! 🥲
This song has one of the most iconic baselines ever. This song came out in 1982 when I was 11 years old and this song is heavy in my Playlist rotation currently. I grew up in the best era of music by far.
Preach 🔥
I was 12 years old in 1982. Best music best times. This song is one of my favorites of all times.
The 1981/'82 era were 2 of the best years of music of all time.
With BB&Q
"...I grew up in the best era of music by far." Me also.
Listen! For me, when it comes to dance music, 70s and early 80s, Soul is it for me.
This baseline is STRAIGHT 🔥 🔥 🔥!!!! He's playing the shit out of it!!!
Straight facts I love this because of the bassline
Fender Precision Bass man! Slapping it finely!
My mom’s song and today is her heavenly birthday!!!🎈🙏🏽🌹🎂
Happy birthday to her❤
Happy birthday to your mother! God bless!
🙌
God bless and happy birthday, keep dancing in heaven 💃 ☀️ 🏖
Happy birthday 🎉🎉😊
Such Great Music 🎉
Just a ridiculously good song, take me back to the 80s when I was a teen and the whole adulthood thing hadn't started yet. Why can we no longer produce anything as kick ass as this?
Because the world has changed, unfortunately music is not what it used to be, that’s why I go back in memory and enjoy music of the past.
Timeless classic. Patrice is not nearly as celebrated as she should be.
So true!
So true! But she's got the $$ for being music director for the Grammy's more times that any other musician. ❤❤❤
That bass is incredible as is Patrice’s beautiful voice. This is one of my all time favorites
This is good black music here.yes sir🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶
@@philmarasco7833would be cool to have this sound revived and modern artists making songs like this! Hip hop is getting a bit stale…
@@stxlaxPPyep, can't agree more
@@stxlaxPPthere are a small few. But they’re so fucking small and underground that it’s hard to even look anything up about em
Listen to her piano on jazz violinist Jean Luc Ponty's 75 album " Aurora"
Probably one of the greatest songs written on planet earth.
the double-clap that has spanned decades and will never get old
And it's real.
No wonder Prince was in love with her...she's just as talented multi-instrumentalist and beautiful. He wrote I wanna be your lover about and for her. She said no. I think she thought he was weird. lol
That’s what I think as well she thought he was weird so she just wanted to remain friends But she missed out🤣👌
She wasn't wrong.
@@jmhaugen4757 Yes she just wasn’t the right woman for him I think vanity was
@Mrs. Biggles vanity and Prince were meant for each other they both had traumatic experiences as children and emotionally scarred he couldn’t trust women and she couldn’t trust men but they understood each other so well
@Anna Griffin Yes talent and Beauty for sure
Patrice Rushen, what an R &B talent, too underrated. The bass just slaps, and even tho this song came out in '82, it's still excellent.
1982 is one of the best years for music in my opinion.
Bridget not only did Patrice co-write this song. she produced the track too.
I am most definitely. I loved these times . I'm glad I was born a baby boomer.. I'd love to go back if God would let me.
Music is a time machine, it takes you back to a happier time.
Can't go wrong with Disco.
Ah yes cold war. Home sweet home
TH-cam is my time machine. Greetings from sunny Jamaica.
oh yes..that's exactly what's happening to me
Give this man more likes it that’s so true
This came out in 1982 and I was 33 - and this is still a classic to me at age 74 in 2023.
Booty shaking music
I was seventeen and can remember hearing that song first in the cinema-something with Tom Hanks,and bought the maxi single the next day.
Still dancing to it in 2024 🕺🏽
@collinhorsey1603I was 5 but I remember 😊
I was in my junior year of high school.in those days we heard beautiful songs nowadays the songs are terrible and thats world wide. Love from Greece brings back memories growing up in the USA.
@@lemoniagiotsa7397 Some other things going in 1982.... The second height of the cold war and movies like The Day After and Threads.
Born in 1999 but nothing makes me feel
Better than this era of music… indescribable it hits ur soul
so true!
I born was in 93
Same!!!
Likewise dude! likewise!
Fully agree 💯💯💯
I was born in 1996, and this song will be on my wedding playlist! 😊
The bassline gets me going everytime I hear this song. You can't help but to dance when you hear this song playing. What a timeless classic!
Freddie Washington got a writing credit on this song for it. Believe it or not, it's played on a Fender Precision bass.
Thats my dad’s cousin Patrice (well my 2nd cousin technically) , i didn’t know THIS is who she was before i was born. WOW. And shes a very intelligent woman, multiple degrees, plays classical piano like it was with her in the womb. She also plays guitar and classical harp, this woman is a genius. Im so proud of her.
Great music from years past but so timely that it’s making me rock to the beat, even at 75+
A GREAT MUSICIAN !!!!!!!!
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅g😅g😅😅@user-xm3fg5tw2r
She’s super talented and this track is timeless, brings back so many memories of my childhood, happy times
This was a time in music where you had to be talented to make it in the industry even more so when it came to being a woman because you were already immediately looked down upon compared to your male counterparts.
That bass line is so funky, I had to spray the room with air freshener when the song was over.
LOL!
haha
😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
🤣😅🤣
Funk is timeless im 30 I'll play this for my younger siblings like my older folks did for me 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 🐐 #goatmusic #timeless

👉👍💪🤜🇫🇷
She was sooo gorgeous singing this song. God bless this woman. Im 33 now tuning in and showing love here. ❤🎉🔥💯🤞💃
This song, but especially Freddie Washington's bass line, will never get old.
Wooo…that baseline is it!
❤❤ the Base lines in alot of the 80s and 70 s R.B funk tracks ❤❤ that's when muzic was hittn on 8 cylinders🎉🎉❤
San Francisco. 1985. Myself and my husband and his best friend Jay - both models - danced around the ROTATING dance floor that night to Patrice's
"Forget me nots". We were on FIRE. Patrice was FIRE. We won the dance contest complete with a bucket of champagne rolled over to us - a magical night thanks to Patrice. 67 now; so blessed to have those memories. The entire album is incredible!
👏👏👏😁
Never been to California, but I've dreamed about it, hope those memories stay with you forever!
Thanks for the sharing much love from France
The bass is like a second voice in this song.
Amen
And the chords
Best Comment Comparison
4 bar pattern groooooooove...... love it..
Interesting observation Lea. The bass, actually is having a conversation with the lead voice. The bass is a plaintive and sad apology to her. It's nothing short of brilliant. But did you know it was Nile Rogers and Bernard Edwards who started that sort of trend in bass line prominence? ;-)
She's not only beautiful, she's a great singer!
Nice inversion!
She is also an incredibly talented jazz pianist. I first heard her playing piano on a Jean Luc Ponty fusion album from 1976 called Aurora. She soloed with great lyricism and soulfulness.
@@steelydad5863 Thank you for your below surface level analysis into the depths of Her talent, beyond her appearance
...and a great songwriter and producer. She produced and co-wrote this song.
I saw her live in a concert in '82 at my Alma mater North Carolina Central
Man, that bass line from Freddie Washington was an iconic. He wrote that song too. Freddie also played bass for Anita Baker Sweet Love (The Rapture album), Dionne Warwick's "That's what friends are for", Phil Collins' "Two Hearts" and many famous. artist.....
Decided to let Spotify to shuffle the oldies for my study session, 70s and 80s must have been a magical time. They don't make music like this anymore.
Word
it’s all just rap and allat, we need this back
This is one of the best songs that will never get old.
My mom goes into surgery today breast cancer. She asked for everyone to play music she loves. This is for you ma. I love you
Hoping everything went well ❤
Hope all is well for ur mom..❤❤
Don't forget to tell how's it goes. Sending hugs ❤
How is she?
Once you too remember….
to all the old people commenting on here, I hope you are still alive and healthy and get to enjoy , and If no I hope u get to enjoy this classic in a better place ❤🩹
One of my clients at work requested to play this song, and I was so happy to finally know the name of this song! I absolutely love this song! This client loves dancing to this song, so this song just gives off all the good vibes ☺️
Whose jamming to this song in 2020?
Eyeluta * Lulu* me
Lol
Right here
Eyeluta * Lulu* the Glory years
Me me me 🤗
Damn one tune one song one beautiful voice singer...still captivating n it's 2024!
I’m 33 and sometimes I feel like I belong to the 70’s 😅 obsessed with 70’s and 80’s music
You will never make a mistake by listening to the 70/80 music. It brings back the great memories and makes you think about your youth days 😊😊😊
I'm 31. Im stuck with older music too. Nothing to listen these days, sadly
Check out the playlists on my channel. They're slightly biased in favour of UK music since I'm from England.
❤ there u go girl 🎉
Same here 😂💃
Patrice Rushen is criminally underrated , I’d say she’s up there with Sade , Rose Royce , Debarge & Mary Wells who just have RAW angelic voices where the instrumentals are built around them .
Thats a rare talent , it’s usually the other way around
I’m 55 years old and this song sounds even better than anything out now. What a great song! Beautifully done! I miss the 80s! Please take me back there ❤
me too please
Me also.
Nowadays, American music has no flare, no class, no feeling.
😩
All this stuff wicked.
Click your Ruby Heels 👠 3 times AND take us both!!!!!!!

I refuse to believe 80s music will ever go outta style GODDAMN 😩🫡
😁👏👏👏
70s
80's? Um...nope!
That's right! We won't let it!
As a 40 year old I can appreciate the creative genius of artists from the 70s and 80s
I have been blessed enough to have been introduced to this type of music. I just turned 25 and I am bumping this for another year of wonderful life!
I was 22 when this came out, divorced mom and working 2 jobs and going to school...I get tired thinking about it.. But this song always got me going...
One of those songs you never get tired of even after 50 years.
💃👏👏👏💯🎶 Temazooooo...8 Enero 2023...🇦🇷 👍
40 tho :P
make out city
I never knew that the Men in Black song sampled this song
One song u would want 2 hear once a week!!!
I was 16 in 1982 and I loved this tune. I still love it today....Awesome!
Same here
Me too! Smiling the whole time I listen to it
Me too...from montreal quebec....this song makes me feel good !!!
I was 15 years old in 1982 when this song came out.
I was 17
We need this music again in this generation. I'm 68...im ready to get up and dance
This song absolutely still slaps even after 40 years 🔥. Damn clubbin must've been Hella fun back then.
It was!

Slaps Will Smith style😝🖖🏾
@@kanomorojele4956 that works in multiple ways. Smith sampled this for Men in Black.

Back when music was real music
Супер музыка!!! Была, есть и будет!!!
Born in '95 but the 80s are by far my favorite era for music. I will never get enough of this song.
Born in 89, this was my mib and introduction to funk
95' me too 🤙
95er too! Always lover and appreciate all these classic hits! 🎉👍🏽
1993 guy here and I MUCH prefer 80s music over most modern-day music.
95 here too and this is my jam
I don't know what's better... The bass, the sax or Ms. Rushen killing us with those vocals every chance she gets... 🔥🔥🔥 Undisputed classic
This song and Haven't You Heard were icons back in the 80s!! We loved dancing to these tunes!! Oh how I love the dance music of the 80s!!
In my opinion, this song is simply ...... A classic.
I was 22 when this song hit the street, I'm 63 and still love the groove. Brings back so many wonderful memories of days gone bye...

Will Smith owes big time to this amazing lady.
Why ?
@@l_j_c_5397 The Men in Black samples the main hook of this song
@@JorbyTinky Yeah i had no idea this was the basis but it's unmistakeable now, this song is basically the blueprint for MIB and he didn't change much.
But it's a classic so im inclined to think it's not intentionally trying to steal but rather paying homage/giving respect.
"Here come the MEN IN BLACK" Man, I love both songs tbh. Miami samples "The beat goes on" by the Whispers too. Also both awesome (except that damned island part in the Miami music video where it changes up. I HATE that part...)
@@sanjayr plus he added a bunch of sweet lyrics and the movie was a kickass classic from the 90's.
Я русская, мне 48 лет, и мне чертовски нравится эта песня. Но я с ней впервые познакомилась, когда посмотрела фильм "Люди в чёрном". Обалденная песня, под неё так и хочется танцевать! Super!
Fair play wherever you find music embrace
This is no oldie... IT'S TIMELESS!!!😍

you were really lucky being 16 in 82 as much as i was 21 y.o. in january 83 when i saw this astounding clip for the 1st time
Summer of '82 between high school and college moving out on my own for the first time this was the Anthem of my newfound freedom😂
Holy crap there's a music video to go with this perfection?
right, i just saw it in my recommended and i was like "wait there's a video?!"
I didn't know either and it's dope
Pretty much my reaction. Good to know there is haha
@@chorrellpique4057 lol, true
I didn't know either, I was a kid, probably in kindergarten when this 1st dropped.
I am sure..I am not the only one to listen to this Masterpiece in 2024
Here is another example of a beautiful young lady who never got her due.... I love always loved this. Thank You Patrice. BTW am a 64 year old white man who loves this. Happy, wonderful, lyrics and instrumentals......sadly missing today. I love that Saxaphone! My sister long gone played the sax. Be safe everyone. Love each other. Be kind to all. Live by the Golden Rule. God be with you all. I love Patrice's look and hair in this vid, GLAM!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
@user-xm3fg5tw2r I agree, be Blessed.🙏
Patrice is a genuine musical prodigy who inspired Prince, and Freddie Washington's bass playing on her records was magical. There's also Gerald Albright on sax. He and Freddy would later play on Anita Baker's albums.
thanks for the info
👍
I didn't know about the Prince connection....AWESOME TRIVIA
Princes's song I wanna be your Lover was about Patrice
The song is timeless, the recording is superb, the bass is masterpiece, her voice is so beautiful and I'm glad I found it.
Incredibly, despite this song is considered by many (me too) a classic, in 1982 did not achieve a great success.
Perfectly said.
thats the thing with these R&B masterpieces they are timeless
they stole this song from fortnite
Who was the bassist here? My guess would be Marcus Miller
Forty-two years of perfection! Baddest groove in every way. Bernard Edward's funky bass line sets a standard that is unsurpassed to this day! Those of us privileged to have grown up and come of age dancing to Patrice Rushen knew how special this song was even back then. It's only gotten better over the past 4 decades. And will continue to as well.
Stylist: "How many beads do you want?"
Patrice: "Yes."
Now this is what I call music! The vocals and instruments can not be beat!
Arthur B. You said it Brother!! Amen!! 👍👏
And to think her record company (Elektra) didn't believe it would be a hit. She proved them wrong all the way to a Grammy nomination.
what what hahaaa, it's the MIBs yall
Patrice Rushen is probably one of the most talented Malaysian Indian singer ever!

The best bass makes my spine chill
Code 31 constable axis electricity
This bassline is too much!
OUTSTANDING!!!!!
that sound is pure "eargasm"....and that bassline...words can't describe how well executed and essential it is for rushen's beautiful voice and lyrics....wish I could listen to more good music like this nowadays...
🤣🤣👍
🤣
Jammin bassline!!!!
Beautiful vocals and very well written, thoughtful and romantic lyrics.
Great tune.
One of the greatest songs of all times period!!!
I was 13 years old and just arrived from a foreign country. One of the first songs I heard in U.S. soil!!
I am in my 50's now and everytime I hear this song always takes me back to that new adventure and mystery of what life would be like!
Ms. Patrice's song is interwoven in my life until the end...thanks Ms. Rushen 💚
I'm 65, these were the greatest songs to dance to. In my opinion anyway... I was just 25 then. The eighties were great... Just like the Twenties and fifties and sixties. The seventies... They were ok. People will differ with me.. BUT DISCO lol

Tempest fugit indeed🎉
The lovely Patrice Rushen. Has an angelic voice and a face to match. This song was a fine example of 70's music excellence. The best decade of music, in my opinion.
Well it was an 80’s song not 70’s
Its hard to believe there is no conventional guitar on this piece. That bass just filled in so well, you don't really miss it. Freddie was indeed ready on this one.
