my sisters & I were fortunate enough to see them in concert back in the day (80's) when all u did was go to concerts & dancing @ clubs! those were great times!! 🎶☺
am born in late 80s and heard all these music while growing up and listening to this today.the artists today ain't original most copy from the legends yes.this was talent

Back when women used their talented voices instead of their body's to attract popularity in music, And The Mary Jane Girls have that and then some. To this day I haven't seen any girl groups that can compare with the MJG 🎤🎤🎤🎤
@@jimboswamps5602 yeah I was surprised to find out. But I knew they sounded too good for their looks. So in harmony. But it was the Waters sisters actually singing
I find it funny you say that considering that's exactly why Rick put them together lol Jojo was the clear talent while the others were primarily eye candy even though their harmonies were glorious.
All these folks dont know nothin about the 80's,lol...So sad...Lil wayne and Drake on the radio these days....Grown folks gonna keep that old skool music,yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're so right on about that. It seems that in every Girl Group, each girl thinks of themself as the Star ie Diana Ross, Beyonce, or even Nicole Scherzinger but in the long run they end up selling more Photos than Records.
You know what's so quirky now that I think about it, there have been many Songs titled Boys. David Bowie, The Beatles, and even Britney Spears all have used this title.
I always thought Rick James was on the same level as Prince. But cocaine did him in. The Mary Jane Girls were Bad!!! Vanity 6 and Apollonia 6 were garbage. 😎
@@BabySinister If they are lip syncing the entire concert to recorded music, no. If this is your idea of “live”, what do you call the link that I shared with you, live live? Lol
@papiblatino I know what you mean. The Pussycat Dolls and The Spice Girls couldn't hold a candle to these Ladies. The only one who are good at least of today's generation was a British Girl Group called Girls Aloud, one of the Members Cheryl Cole was a Judge on The X Factor and the US Version before Nicole Scherzinger took her place.
I love the song and the band's concept. But this is laziness on the part of Rick James. What I mean by lazy is this. Only one of the MJGs actually sang. The others were basically Milli Vanilli. I guess if Rick had taken the time to find good looking dancers who could actually sing, it wouldn't have been long before they left him for solo careers!
Cheri and Maxi... they are EVERYTHING!
Maxi is working it
Watch any of their videos. It just never gets old. Its addictive. It gets your heart rate up a little to.
.
Love this song, Detroit baby! 1984.
This is deffinitely old school! I was coming out of high school about to go away to college when this was release in 1984!

Rick James really did a great job with these Ladies! what a great songwriter and producer.
Cheri & JoJo are the original MJG from Rick James backup group from the 1979 tour.
Love it. Love their dance routines. Each one has their own personality.
They were the perfect mixture of men's fantasies/preferences.

MY ORIGINAL MJG!!! LOVE IT!
girl groups kick ass
Damn Cheri have the healthy body

Secret with exception of jojo and other member the rest was chose not based on singing a ability but body.
Yes
It’s only JoJo really singing on their album with session singers. The other three were hired for their image aka body and looks.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

And it keeps getting worse
The 80s where the shit! I wish I grew up in that era!
Me and my cousin used to sing this song. We were 10 at the time, and knew nothing about boys. LOL
Talented & Classy
Jojo so cute and loveable ❤😊

“Short ones, fat ones, tall ones, skinny ones, white ones, black ones, red ones” hell yes M J G.
I love them but the background has me want to play some Pac-Man 😍
Memories!!!!!!
WORK IT LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!
The Latina in the candy stripes hmmmm
She's not Latina. Cheri is half Italian and half Black. So technically she is Latin though. She's beautiful! 🙂
Song is so underrated

Curti demais Mary Jane girls
They were the "Original" Spice Girls as far as I'm concerned.
Absolutely! I’ve ALWAYS said this!
...absolutely! Sazon, white pepper, tumeric and paprika!!
So many folks used the title "Boys". Them, the beatles, and britney spears.
This is my song
I Can't Believe That Cheri Is Wearing Mix-Match Heels
You know what's so quirky now that I think about it, there have been many Songs titled Boys. David Bowie, The Beatles, and even Britney Spears all have used this title.
'Boys'by Britney was supposed to be a mix of this & 'Nasty Girl'by Vanity 6
Whirlaway supposed to be. she didn't get very close though
Bringing booty back😅!!!

This isn’t live but nice indeed.
This is very live…yes they are lip syncing, but performing live
@@BabySinister Live is a “live”band playing with “live” singers. Lip syncing to a record is not live.
@@BabySinister this is live ua-cam.com/video/V5vB-bkA3Zk/v-deo.html
@@briandonald If you go to a concert and the artist is lip syncing, is that not a live concert?

Who is the girl with the black hair and plump legs? She looks great what's her name?
