My feelings exactly when I hear certain songs from that era. "Drive" by the Cars is another one. "Dirty Laundry" by Don Henley is still another. But there are quite a few
@bleep77 I know I'm late to the party but I couldn't have said what you said any better. I just wish I could go back to that time and just take it all in, took it for granted when it was actually happening.
I can't believe how time has flown since this was released! Jermaine was the bomb! Hard to believe he will be blowing out 70 candles on his birthday cake this December!
Its funny how I grew up on Thriller and the magic that MJ had. I have never even heard of this song 🤷♂️I was barely aware of Jermaines career but I had all of MJ releases. Dynamite!
This was a joint back in the day. The Jacksons would ALWAYS approach music videos with a cinematic sensibility. Whether it was Michael, Jermaine or Janet, they always dropped amazing music videos that pushed the medium further than any artist previously. I recommend Rebbie Jackson's "Centipede" as well as Janet's absolutely epic masterpiece "Alright."

Good Morning. You're speaking facts. Michael had listed Jermaine as one of his musical idols and influences along with Johnny Mathis James Brown, Gene Kelly, Fred Astire, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Janet
@@moonchild3130 Jermaine did well as a solo artist. Both he and Michael recorded solo albums as members of The Jackson 5ive. When the brothers left Motown, Jermaine discovered the group Switch and help write and produce hits for them. He also produced Whitney Houston's debut album which sold nearly 15 million copies and he also scored 2 # 1 R&B Hits

This is the reason why no other Jackson made it to the level of MJ. The music, the video, the choreography, tge production, the lyrics are all just screaming 80’s, now compare that to any MJ song of that era & you can instantly see the difference.
I remember when this was on an episode of Pop-Up Video and every time you heard "Dynamite" in the song, a picture of Jimmy Walker as JJ from Good Times popped up. It was funny.
*lifesaver72 Don't forget the Prince episode for the song "Kiss" where every time he said it, a Hershey's Kiss or a picture of the band KISS would appear.
This video is so much fun to watch. Loved the dancing. For some reason, I always get the urge to do the chorus moves. Jermaine was holding his own pretty well back in the 80s.
And we cant forget about Janet, Ms. Jackson, if youre nasty. I loved all the Jacksons and got to go to their concert when i was little. I was mesmerized.
+Alphawindman IVL oil was $28 a barrel in 1984...1 barrel =31.5 gallons..so for @ $30..they were good and slippery..jheri curl and all...let that soul glow!!
This video was shot at the Essex County Correctional facility in Newark NJ and I was there watching the filming as a guest of a Sergeant there. This video was filmed at the same time the Jacksons did the Torture video in NY
Eseercam It was documented that MIchael wasn’t going to do this video. He helped set everything up but gagged them the day of shooting. He agreed to do the Victory album and the subsequent tour, but that was the extent of what he was willing to do - aka no music videos. And those two things he agreed to were the result of his Mother Katherine begging him to do the Victory tour for the family. Jermaine reportedly refused to participate in the video because of Michael’s absence (he wasn’t going to be made to feel inferior by his little brother). Michael at that point was the King of Pop Music and Culture in Summer of 1984. Thriller’s sales were still going through the stratosphere after a year and a half (released November 30, 1982) and he didn’t need the money. A punk rocker on some retro show said even punk and metal kids purchased copies of Thriller. His crossover appeal was like nothing the industry had ever seen at the time. Thriller of course became the biggest selling album of all time. He was making $2 for every album sold which was unprecedented at the time for any artist. Albums were about $7-12 on average. That’s not to mention singles, investments, and endorsements (Pepsi wasn’t the only endorsement he had BTW). Michael’s was raking in $100 -$200 million a year at that point. So he was good. He even donated his payment for the Victory Tour to charity which is another unprecedented move as artist make the bulk of their money from touring - and that was the biggest tour ever. So he was secure to say the least.
y'all for get that the Jacksons are all related and all had the same dance training so of course their dance moves, performance demeanor and musical ideas are going to be the same
+Blingo Brown Check out his bass playing on "Let's Get Serious" live performance (think it's Arsenio show from back in the day), while singing. Definitely has rhythm. Best musician in the Jacksons, hands down, not that they were known for that. Underrated bassist!
OMG. I LOVE this song, and this video.....everything 80s that I just LOVE. Jermaine Jackson has such a solid body of work...that is sometimes overlooked...
Im just hearing and seeing this for the first time. Ive been discovering the Jacksons/Jackson5 work and after watching several of their group videos, its very very strange to see Jermaine dance! He and Tito always had their guitars 🎸
I watched this video a couple of times at my girlfriend's house back in 84. It creeps up on me every few years and plays in my head for about a week or so. You always be the number 1 Jackson in my books Jermaine. Do what you do when you did what you did to us all man. Big fan
Song did really well on the charts! Top 20 hit on the pop and dance charts, and Top 10 hit on the R&B charts! 1984 was a huge year for all of the Jacksons! Following the EXPLOSIVE success of Thriller (the album AND music video), all three sisters (Janet, Rebbie, and Latoya) had albums out with singles that all did well on the R&B charts that year, some that crossed over onto the Pop Charts (i.e. "Centipede" for Rebbie)! Jermaine's "Dynamite" album here produced several other hits too!! And of course the Victory album/tour was a huge success! The Jacksons truly OWNED 1984!!!! Such an immensely talented, legendary and influential family filled with some gifted musicians and entertainers!
Michael owned the 80s, 90s, 00s, 70s. let's be honest haha. Jermaine did pretty good too, Janet too. But Michael was literally changing history forever
Michael also had the HUGE success of the late 70s, Thriller becoming the biggest album ever, gaining dozens of awards, we are the world, billie jean, the biggest song ever, and on and on. And he was just getting started, with dangerous, bad, history. Changed the world forever
Todos los Jackson- -5 ,tuvieron un verdadero talento ,pero Michael Jackson fue un genio musical que superó desde niño a todos sus hermanos ,un talento que solo los elegidos lo tienen .Realmente fue y será el Rey del pop.Uns verdadera influencia de disciplina y perseverancia .Nunca se dio el lujo de desespcional a sus fans.QEPD.

This song was my childhood jam, and I’m so happy to have found it again!
Love it too! I had the 45” record!! ❤️🎼❤️
Me too.... Jermaine was my hero at one time
Katherine it was my childhood jam too. Brings back memories..
I use to drive me mother crazy. Doing the Dynamite dance in the living room.
God I miss the 80s...
Mine too
Jermaine is a awesome singer. Wish he went further. Michael wasn’t the only talent.
In 2024 Jernaine still sounds dope. I play this song from my play list
The dance moves get me every time and that earring. I would love to do a flash mob some where with these outfits and this song!! Long live the 80s!!
Seriously 😂
I must have watched this video 50 times I love the moves
There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
YES!!!!!!!!!

So sick of people stealing this comment, it's even on country songs
Do Whatcha Do does that to me.
I remember when this would come on the Jackson's episode of Pop Up Video on VH1, back when they played music videos!!!
looking at those clothes, such a throwback. I am a proud survivor of the 80s. :-)
Jermaine Jackson has a beautiful strong manly voice and he is very naturally handsome!!!❤
I can't believe how time has flown since this was released! Jermaine was the bomb! Hard to believe he will be blowing out 70 candles on his birthday cake this December!
I miss the 80s. Music was pure and timeless
And the coke was pure
This song is already 36 years old and to me this song will never get old, one my favorites till this day I still listening to this song!
Now it's 38 years old. Great song 🎵 👌

Jermaine is the most underated Jackson!! He deserved as much solo as Michael and Janet had & this jam proves it.
Not even close
I can see why this is jermaine's no.1 song. Great job Jermaine!
This is not just his #1, Let's Get Serious is too
@@xe3498 when the rain begins to fall, don't take it personal, sweetest sweetest, do what you do , etc etc etc. All the jackson 5 songs too. dudes a legend
Don't take it personal is his number one song
“You like me don’t you” was his best song in my opinion. #ASmoothGroove
One of my favorite videos of all time. Love the florescent colors and beat. Jermaine is the man!
Kenny F like feather earring. I love the whole video.❤️
Seriously? Of all time?
Your on drugs!! Lol
Jermaine Jermaine was and still remains to be a great music vocalist. Even Michael knew this...!!!
I agree, but Michael and Janet had an edge about them, more driven and determined,
O boy 🙄 😂 look I love all the Jacksons. They are the most talented family ever but none of them could fuck with Michael.
Joe Jackson even said Jermaine a better singer than Michael
Good Morning. You're speaking facts. Michael had listed Jermaine as one of his musical idols and influences along with Johnny Mathis James Brown, Gene Kelly, Fred Astire, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Janet
@@kayjay842 I know that's his daddy, but I disagree.
I miss those old school days of MTV. Still loving this in 2019. 💕😎🎶✨
This video was directed by Bob Giraldi, the same guy who directed Michael's video "Beat It" and Paul McCartney and Michael's video, "Say Say Say" .
Oooh... I wonder if Michael (or his people) had him sabotage this on purpose. Can't have him becoming as big a star as Michael!
Sara Munoz ?
He also directed Will Smith's "Just The Two Of Us" video!!!

Unlike those great videos, this one wreaks of complete cheesiness and bad choreography.
The 80's!! Good ole days 👍👍👍
I drove my '72 Pontiac while jamming to this song in 1984, as a 16 year old. Good old days indeed
I like jermaine jackson don't get why he's underrated
I love the choreography in this video. A very underrated song.
And the whole video is very entertaining in a kinky sort of way. The 80's was pretty much the decade of great dance moves. Great music, great dance.
How exactly was it "underrated"? By being #8 on Billboard?
Can we say "oh so 80s"! That's why we love it!
Jermaine. Jackson is. Sexy 🔥🌠🦋🦋 🦋
This music is of 1982
th-cam.com/video/wQad3_5Sc6Y/w-d-xo.html
Ooh love the 80s
He's Dynamite, in every way, dancing, singing, pure Jackson.
I'm not sure why it doesn't have 100million views. Extremely under-rated.
Por que muchos no la conocieron o los que la conocieron la han vuelto a escuchar por eso
The talent coming from the Jackson's is on another level...❤❤❤
I like this song, its stuck in my head
+Gisselle Velazquez me too haha
IDreamYouSaid Cool
One of he best song from the 80's!! :-)
+Dashland B thank you!!!
lyrics:
I don't know too much but I know love the way I've been touched
It's your love that heats me up
And there's no such thing as too much
'Cause I don't know any better
No, I don't know when it's time to stop, no
All night you give me what I like
Intense, high explosive dynamite
Pure dynamite
All night you supply the spark I like
Intense, heavy dose of dynamite
Pure dynamite
Wild things can't be tamed under my skin and it's just the same
I'm wading, ignited
And there's no way I'll ever fight it
'Cause I don't know any better
No, no I don't know when it's time, time for me to stop, no, no
All night you give me what I like
Intense, high explosive dynamite
Pure dynamite
All night you supply the spark I like
Intense, heavy dose of dynamite
Pure dynamite
I don't want any…
Wow. Sexy song.
Man, I just love the warden. She was like, 'I'm going to get every move on point and show you skinny gals, we can hang too!' I've loved this video.
N she got down 2.

She was on it in the breakdown when they were slappin those batons in they’re hand!!😆😆

just let your SOOOOOOUUULL!
Just let your SOUULLLLLL GLOOOOOOO
Looooool
Lol
i love his smile at the end !!!!
It was as if he knew the warden messed up.
Messed up by locking him up with some tail.
This song is a time machine!
This is my favorite Jermaine Jackson song, it is definitely Dynamite.
the more i listen to it the better it gets.
keep lefft i know!.... its pretty catchy lol.....
keep lefft I think the best part of this video is the cafeteria scene. What do you think?
I know my friend! :) Don't stop til' you get enough of this music ;)
That’s a fact
forreal
I like it! pure 80s
This classic video from 1984 is still very DYNAMITE!!! #dynamite!
This is the reason why no other Jackson made it to the level of MJ. The music, the video, the choreography, tge production, the lyrics are all just screaming 80’s, now compare that to any MJ song of that era & you can instantly see the difference.
Yea i def see wht u say Mj was timeless
The last time I saw this video was when it aired on New York Hot Tracks with Carlos De Jesus(RIP) hosting the show.
I remember when this was on an episode of Pop-Up Video and every time you heard "Dynamite" in the song, a picture of Jimmy Walker as JJ from Good Times popped up. It was funny.
OMG!! I remember that. It was hilarious. Lol!!
lifesaver72 Yes it sure was. I really miss that show. You'd be surprised how much you learned from it.
I agree. I learned a lot from that show too. It occassionally pop up on cable and I try to watch it as much as I can.
*lifesaver72 Don't forget the Prince episode for the song "Kiss" where every time he said it, a Hershey's Kiss or a picture of the band KISS would appear.
I remember that too. Pop Up Video was the best. I wish VH1 would create a new show.
Dynamite is a great song!!
Cheap and sleazy. I love it!
Robert Mofford yessss
And greasy😝❤
This video is so much fun to watch. Loved the dancing. For some reason, I always get the urge to do the chorus moves. Jermaine was holding his own pretty well back in the 80s.
if the Jackson band had existed these day, nobody could beat their music and dancing scenes. This band so entertaining 😘
I was eight or nine years old when this wonderful classic by Jermaine came out. Dynamite!!!!
Wow!! It just takes me back my teenage years pure gold🧨🎖
i need a time machine to go back to those times 😉
John Floris ☹️ time machines don't exist in real unfortunately.
Me too.

This was a hit back in the days! Mike got popular when lady of my life album too off! MTV the ran this video
80's
jermaine...such an underrated singer!!!
True!!!
I Agree THATJermaine is underaterd & it is a Damn Shame This Video was EXCELLENT !!!!-
Wow I forgot about this song. This was definitely the 80's...😊
No quedan dudas es un tema que nunca se dejará de escuchar
Is somehow one of the most overlooked tunes of mid 1984.
Im just hearing and seeing this for the first time. Ive been discovering the Jacksons/Jackson5 work and after watching several of their group videos, its very very strange to see Jermaine dance! He and Tito always had their guitars 🎸
I love this song and I love watching the lady playing the "wardon" dance. She's got some smooth moves❤
At 3:32, the warden was KILLIN' IT!!!
YES. Couldn't tell her she wasn't! 🐾
underrated artist
Gotta love the '80s
Love how Jermaine has a soft touch in his voice smooth like whiskey. Then the slow motion chase on the tables… exciting 🎉❤❤
Jermaine had it going on!!!! Love the 80s
I actually like this song ..

I love this song
Me Too
It sounds like this beat kinda sampled “ Maneater” by Hall & Oates
IKR always secretly put this in my top 10 jackson songs.
I like this song and the video.

Michael owned the 80s, 90s, 00s, 70s. let's be honest haha.
Jermaine did pretty good too, Janet too.
But Michael was literally changing history forever
Michael also had the HUGE success of the late 70s, Thriller becoming the biggest album ever, gaining dozens of awards, we are the world, billie jean, the biggest song ever, and on and on.
And he was just getting started, with dangerous, bad, history. Changed the world forever
Yess it was definitely a good year for all of them! Finally some recognition for all the Jackson siblings 🙌
In 1984 not only all the Jackson siblings released albums, that year best selling album is also Thriller.
Making the whole family exploded.
Jermaine is right next on my pop list right next to mj!

Jermaine been dat dude. He got done Greasy
I can hear the Jackson in him. Most Jackson’s have that cute adorable pitch in their voice. But Mj dynamite 🧨 jeromines music, tremendously.
