So 1977 Summer this song hit the air waves and as you driving around cruising you was into it . Needless to say years later about a year ago I introduced that song to some karaoke fans. They was just awe of that song and it caught this young lady said can you sing the song about the zodiac signs. Took me minute but I said float on . She said yes. And yes she loved it along with everybody else. I’m 70’s all the way a 1972 graduate era of the eight track.. with a great appreciation for music. Float on.

This came out in the mid-late 70's and these brothers were a one-hit wonder. Asking a chick her zodiac sign was a big thing back in the 70's. This song was very popular back then and still is with the old heads. The moves that you see these guys do wasn't called dancing....it was called stepping.
Iconic 1977 R&B. So thankful I remember the 60s & 70s. One of the last Motown-style songs b4 funk & then hip-hop/rap took over. End of an era. #Treasure
Hmm!...Cali-Unc checkin' in, this track right here was a strong skating rink, garage house party, jr. senior high school, cruisin' track! Hella popular back in the late 70's
***FLOATERS TRIVIA TIME!!!*** ...float onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...... THIS..... - ....not much trivia, due to this Band being 'One Hit Wonders'; the popularity of 'Astrology Love' during the "Me" Decade, and the loooooooooong length of the 12+ minute Album version (for lovemaking), made this an outta-the -box SMASH, hitting #1 R&B for SIX WEEKS, and #2 Pop, for two.... - ...It ORIGINALLY was written for (and by) a member of the R&B group The Detroit Emeralds, but the Floaters got it, due to a contract dispute regarding royalties (i.e. the writer gets ALL the money, and doesn't have to share it with the Band members.... ) - ...their 1978 LP, "Love Letters" stiffed, and after 4 Albums they broke up...they hired new members in 2001, and toured sporadically, but several members passed away, and disbanded again....
In the 70s there were 3 main music genres; Rock, Country, and Soul. This is Soul music we didn’t call it R&B because we knew it was an progression of our genius.
This is one of the greatest running jokes in my youth with our toilet humor back when we were young. We all laughed so hard sometimes still to this day nobody believes it was a band called The floaters with a song called float On. Because where we grew up sometimes there's that one turd that never flushed down and we used to call it somebody left a floater in the bowl. 🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣😆😆
🔥🔥CLASSIC SATIN SOUL‼️Them boys are stepping in their powder blue tuxedos with ruffles and still singing em down. "Sagittarius, Darnell and I love everything and everybody".
Now I know why The African, Brazilian, and Caribbean Brothers don't like us. They are jealous. my hero the late great comedian Mr Paul Mooney said it best "Of all the Brothers in the world the American Brother is the most unique" to that I give a resounding RIGHT ON✊🏾!!
I really love your energy, if not for the music from the past you wouldn't have great music to listen to ..today but we didn't just listen ...we danced you could pick a women at random hold her in your arms and wouldn't even have to buy her a drink ,you could but it wasn't necessary we loved to dance....and just FLOAT ON ❤💜🖤
Yes Empress, This was smooth 70's Soul/R&B music, and no doubt a memorable track to boot...But unfortunately, they were a 1-Hit Wonder that also somewhat "floated" into obscurity...LOL!!! 😉😂😊 Nevertheless, it's a relaxing "Vibe" that we can still enjoy today in 2022!!! Therefore, all jokes aside, "Thank You" for this reaction because it is truly appreciated!!!
Sagittarius. And my name is Albert! Lol! Loved this song first time I heard but don’t remember when that was. I just know that I have liked this song forever! Lol
Miraculous tune. The smoothness is next level. Loved your reaction, Empress! I missed Charles's smoothness sneaking his name in there -- thanks for pointing that out. You know where to find these gents -- Loveland!
Sunny Ozuna of Sunny & The Sunglows -- "Talk To Me" and "Smile Now Cry Later" are classics worthy of reacting to (and I thought I was the only one living in Sunny Ozuna obscurity)!
The beauty of the 70s was that you only ever had to wait 5 minutes for another great, great song to come along

Don't forget disco and that rap crap started in 1979 with "Rapper's Delight"
Listen, this was so smooove 😆 Back in the day cookout song! Watching the older folks dance to this. Priceless!
Remember the dance floor filling up for this song at my local disco in South Wales, 1977 💥
