    The 80’s were the best of times!! The music, clothes, hair and communication with each other!! Glad I was part of it!! Wish part of it could just return.

      You can see even then in the video how they were already starting to infiltrate and corrupt the music industry with the Africans. In the Old Testament the Liberals infiltrated the Jewish religion and had a fake Son of God that was half African and half Jewish that was their agenda to corrupt the religion it caused the downfall of Israel and Judah and he enslaved and used whips on white people to build satanic temples. That's why there had to be a new testament because the Old Testament was corrupted in the Bible even says so . The Bible says not to even associate or intermarry with them because they will destroy your culture. Whenever you see that happening you know that they are trying to infiltrate and corrupt the culture. The Jewish religion supports this that is their agenda.

    In 1983 I was a 21 year old died-in-the-wool soul boy and this song was my guilty pleasure at the time. Now in my 50s I don't need to hide that fact any more. What wasn't a secret in those days was how much I had the hots for Sarah Dallin! Fantastic song and still their best to this day in my very humble opinion

    My girlfriend Karen from Brogan Cadillac and I went to the rink in Bergen County NJ we always skate at. While
    we were there we met some of Karen's closest friends. Thes girls were very pretty and AWESOME on roller
    skates!!! Karen introduced me to them and we all hung out together!!! I stayed incognito and checked out how
    good Karen's friends were at skating. These girls were every bit as good as Karen said they were. They were in
    for a MAJOR surprise!!! I sat down and Karen and her friends went out on the skate floor!!! This song started
    to play and I got powered up real QUICK!!! I said to myself " Time to hand out a skate lesson!!! I got out on
    the skate floor and dropped the clutch!!! I got in the middle of the skate floor and told Karen and her friends
    " This is how it's DONE"!!! I did the New England shuffle and uncorked every move I knew I cleared the skate floor
    and my moves went into OVERDRIVE!!!! Karen and her friends were in SHOCK!!! They joined me on the skate floor
    and we brought the HOUSE DOWN!!!! We got done and everyone was cheering so loud the whole building SHOOK!!
    Karen's friends were crying and SCREAMING " Where did you learn to SKATE"!!!! Karen then told her friends I was a
    skating champion in Maine and I am a Pro-Roller Skater!!!! Later I teamed up with Karen and her friends and we put
    on a Pro - Roller skating show!!!!
