Unspeakable Joy is part of the fabric of my life. THIS SONG helped guide me on my path of self discovery as I broke free from the chains of my childhood. THIS SONG played as I learned how to be a strong-minded and strong-willed gay man. THIS SONG was sung by an angel that showered love on a generation of people with a very specific message. I owe Kim English a debt that I can never repay. May she find every passed loved one she ever knew (and all The Ancestors that have been anxious to meet her) awaiting her arrival at Heaven. #WellDoneKim
Ah. I recall being at Avalon in Boston and the dance floor exploded at the break that builds after the 6 minute mark and drops at 6:22ish. I will always remember that as the dance floor was NUTS, the lights were spot on, and the air was filled with thousands of tiny bubbles. Fantastic moment!
+Steve Woodman I bet that was awesome. I always heard about Avalon, and what a great club that was. Is it still open? Another question. This track was typically a 'circuit track'. Did Avalon host a 'gay night'? Or was it played on an 'everybody' night. I'm hoping for the latter, b/c i love it when tracks that are typically played in gay clubs, crossover to ALL clubs. Just wondering! Thanks.
+jab3344 I'm not sure if it's still open as I've since moved away from Boston. It was a Thursday night which was indeed Avalon's gay night. I actually didn't go to Avalon all that often as there were other clubs I preferred like The Machine, Buzz, and Axis. Avalon was also very pricey
My first and only time at Backstreet Atlanta was in 1981. I lived in Augusta and went off to college that year but before leaving Augusta for college some friends and I drove to Atlanta to party all night. 😂
This was one of a few anthems that lifted up my spirit and left a great amount of joy in me after dancing my ass off back in the day when DANCE music rocked the clubs...I still listen and enjoy it so much... Thank you KIM for your amazing music and for bringing these songs to all kind of people both gay and straight who love such classics...RIP KIM ENGLISH
Omg literally just found this song from watching AJ and The Queen...I'm blasting this OMW to work tomorrow. Dope ass song!!!!! RIP Queen. Thanks for helping me find a new favorite in 2020. Love ya message!!!!!
IN MY CLUBBING DAYS, I DANCED MY ASS OFF TO THIS SONG!!!!! GLOWSTICKS IN HAND!!!!!!!!! FUCKIN AWESOME!!! THE GREATEST THING ABOUT THE BIG ROOM CLUBS??? THEY PLAYED THEM HARD AND LOOOONG!!!!! THIS TRACK IS 11 MINUTES OF JOY!!!!!!!!! I WAS SO IN THE ZONE WHEN THIS SONG CAME ON WITH MY GLOWSTICKS!!!!! SOOOOO MANY MEMORIES!!!!
I first heard this masterpiece, on club mtv or beach mtv, when mtv was good and still played music videos. I found this hit on a compalation CD, in the early 2000's.
The sequel from Razor & Guido to their iconic remix of Vernessa Mitchell's "This "Joy" and both of these amazing artists are praising the Good Lord in the lyrics. The Joy they both refer to is the Joy of the Lord. My kind of House Music!!!

RIP Kim English. This song game me life everytime I heard it, and still does now! I saw you perform it a few times and you gave it your all, kicked your pumps off and everything! Thank you for the memories!
God’s great joy 🙏🏿 🙌🏿 Kim you served under one of the most amazing pastors, Steve Munsey. You ministered to all to know God’s love & be saved. May you rest safely in the Master’s arms 🙏🏿
The blast of the choirs at the start raises the hairs in the back of my neck ! Masculine gay dude but if I was feminine who cares anyway have this song on blast and the gym guys look at me and I'm like " yup gay ,,,and whatttt"! 💪This song is sooo underrated in so many levels , is st one day artist like Britney , Beyoncé , and others would stop stealing our sound and creativity and if we had a legitamit role model : sexy , handsome and vocally gifted .. I wish they would do a remake of this song and reclaim the stolen music every gendre is doing to us now ., why are they' stealing our music you say ... because they can , but this like everything else gonna change , gay is gonna be respected soon ... and feared

The musical magic will eventually return. Even Barry Harris knew there would be a dry spell. He is now back at it. Still not near Dive in the Pool stuff but decent.
Twenty years later, and that intro still gives me goosebumps!
the lyrics are still spot on as well!
Agreeeed

When I wake up in the morning gets me outta bed
Keeps me runnin' skippin' jumpin' like a little kid
You know sometimes I can hardly keep it inside
It overtakes me, overwhelms me, and I'm mortified

And it's okay if they don't always understand
It's very easy to get caught in circles dance
It's even easier to break out in a dance
