I recorded this one on mix tape in 1990. A good song from my childhood from late 1985 and early 1986. Still love it to this day. Nostalgia is powerful with this one.
Ay man, as the person singing the song, I really liked watching your reaction to this. I have heard the Michael Jackson thing for years, and it's funny that before I started singing it came to mind for you. Also, we hope younger people discover that there are women who play instruments, and we hope we are not the last of a dying breed. Thank you for your humor and recognition. 'Predicate cha!!
So glad someone requested this! This song is a real tearjerker for me, my mom played the heck out of it when I was a little girl and even then it would make me cry because of the feeling in the song. She passed away in 2008 and this is in a playlist I play every year on the anniversary of her death in honor and remembrance. After her passing this song had more of an emotional impact on me so I can't listen to it often unless I need a good cry. I'm a new subscriber and am currently binging your videos, I would love to see you do Because of You by Kelly Clarkson which is another emotional song if you haven't done that one already. Keep up the great work, I enjoy your reactions!
Sarah, so sorry for your loss. As the singer, I am grateful the song helps you purge feelings and it is an honor to contribute to the comfort you feel every year in remembrance of your mom. Light and love to you both 🙏🏽
@@JoyceIrby Oh my goodness what an honor to have you reply to my comment! Isn't it amazing how music can have such a lasting impact on people? I truly believe that I Miss You wouldn't have made the impression it did on me at such a young age without you lending your voice to it, somehow you were able to inject such emotion in that song. If anyone else had sang it, it wouldn't have been the same. Songs like that are what inspired me to want to sing from a young age, even if it never went past karaoke lol. So just know that you singing that one little song all those years ago touched at least one person's life and the fact that you took the time to comment shows that not only do you have a beautiful voice, you are a beautiful person as well. Thank you for your kind words and may you be Blessed.
@@SweepsSlotswithSarah This is why I sing!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing. It does matter to me, that I can affect one person. Life is so challenging and to be able to help anyone navigate this complicated journey is a blessing for me as well. And if you like singing...please keep doing it, if only for yourself. I believe music is a powerful healing too. It can be healing to sing as well as hearing someone else sing. Thank you for blessing my day.
She was missing a significant other and herself with them. If you notice when the people were coming in the door, she was looking for someone. When that person wasn't there you can see it on her face. The band was going on tour and those gathered were to see them off. Her looking at the window was bringing back the memory of the "send off" gathering and how she had no one come for her.
This is my favorite group of all time and the fiercest ensemble of female musicians ever. The song was written by the keyboard player and sang by the bassist for the band Joyce "Fenderella" Irby the baddest bass player alive. Well I know that the video is about loss and heartbreak something that she was going through personally at the time of the video and the song and video whomever came up with the concept must have been aware of it. The tour bus at the end was very symbolic of having to move on even during loss. She's my favorite singer, bass player, music composer and producer. I was not surprised that this song became a monster hit. It still rocks today. It's not old school just some of the best real music played by real musicians that have opened doors for today's female musicians. The video and song are really self explanatory. Klymaxx rules forever. 🎵🎸
@@patrickpetrowsky8136 Lethal Weapon hit it exactly-this song is NOT about a (romantic) breakup, but about leaving family behind for one's career in music.
The lead singer of this song, Joyce "Finderella" Irby was the group's bass player! The girl holding the bass in the video is actually the guitar player, Cheryl Cooley! The main lead singer of the group was Lorena "Lungs" Hardiman who sings lead on many of the groups other songs.
mine was good love maaaan thats my piece right there i came out back then and this song. was the shhhhit i was young in love and got heart broken but i recovered and this song was in my playlist on my little cassette tape haha lol its now on my iphone lol stay safe qeen
I remember this video so well because I wanted to dress like them so badly. I coveted their clothes but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing that today. Damn 80's fashion! Try checking out Oh Sheila by Ready For The World for some bass goodness and 80's fabulousness.
The girl in the window was the singer. She was remembering past times. I always thought she was singing about her former love. When all the people came to visit, it seemed like she was hoping to see someone who did not come.
Good evening from Britain Ty. Loved Klymaxx back in the day... please react to (1) Toni Braxton - You're Makin' Me High (Video Version) (2) Simply Red Holding Back the Years (3) En Vogue - Whatever. Love your reaction videos.
One of the most beautiful songs, in the saddest way.......I remember the 1st time I heard this, I just went through a break-up, & this touched me in such a way, I had to pull my car over until the song was over, & I pulled myself together.....Great to hear this again, especially since I have none of those feeling anymore! LOL :)
Ok, so here is what I have heard the song is (loosely) about: the subject of the song is beginning her singing career with her band on the road, and this song is her leaving her family, going on tour, returning home to visit, and then leaving again. Hence, the "I Miss You" every time she has to leave them behind.
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis wrote and produced for these ladies, as well as Paula Abdul, Janet Jackson, Michael, and a ton of others. They had over 30 huge hits in the 80s. Oh, and Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam, one of my favorites.
She missing he boyfriend. It was a breakup. Looking up towards the apartment she's thinking back about all the memories made. That's how I interpret it.
One thing to remember about classic music videos: often the video had little or nothing to do with the real meaning of the song. The record label would hire a producer to make the video and many times the artist had little or no say in the theme or style of the video. Soul Asylum's "Runaway Train" has nothing to do with teen runaways / Amy Grant wrote "Baby Baby" about her new infant and wanted to do a baby-themed video but was vetoed. The list goes on and on.
Oh man... Those big shirts with the shoulder pads and leggings... Gotta love the 80s... But you have to admit - ballads and love songs of the 80s are some the best!
You should listen to The Men All Pause or Meeting In The Ladies Room by Klymaxx. My mom used to listen to them when we were kids. I like Bernadette the Drummer and she is so amusing and hilarious!
It's like a dagger in my heart when you keep calling the music I used to dance to at my high school dances, old school! I kid obviously, kind of😂 have you done Roxette "She's got the look" they were another I liked back in the day.
There were a few all girl rock bands who played there own instruments in the 80s. Here's an all girl rock band you should do a reaction to, Vixen singing, "Edge Of A Broken Heart"
If you want to check out an all girl band, react to "The Donna's". Either "Take it off" or "Who invited you". They might shock you Ty. These girls rock...hard! 🤘😎🎸
yes we rocked them as well mullet not me but some guys and women the guy from caneo check them out the song is candy he kinda kicked that look off i think ud like it as well as get a kick out of it watch it and let me know what u think maybe do a reaction vid for ir and thnx for not stopping the video and talking and she was waiting for her boyfriend he came late to meet them all before they go on the road he showed up at the end she was waiting on him i think the puppy was to cheer her up
Please look up don't let me cross over God's mercy line and i have been bleesed, by redemption story. I would love to hear your reaction, but most importantly just listen.
Klymaxx has better songs like Sexy and Girls Will Be Girls but they(record people) pushed this song hard until it was a hit. This album already had two hits--The Men All Pause & Meeting In The Ladies Room but to get to platinum I guess they needed a 3 hit.
Hey could you please do Dixie Chicks you used to be mine! An Stevie Nicks Landslide Thanks in advance! Keep up the good work so many UA-cam people get popular and don't have the work ethic you do I so very appreciate that! ❤
And suddenly......I'm back at my prom! So beautiful how a song can take you back to a moment in time, that you had all but forgotten about!
I recorded this one on mix tape in 1990. A good song from my childhood from late 1985 and early 1986. Still love it to this day. Nostalgia is powerful with this one.
This song was huge in the 80's.
It was a great hit in my country, Brazil...
Ay man, as the person singing the song, I really liked watching your reaction to this.

OMFG it's her! This song WAS December 1985 to me.
Hey Joyce!!!!! You are an awesome singer!!!! Your band was ahead of its time.
"I'd Still Say Yes" is still my fave of yalls
Dude has this incredible iconic artist commenting on his videos and doesn't even acknowledge or respond??? 🤦🏾♀🤦🏾♀🤦🏾♀
@@MorrisB1971 thanks for the love
@@mikestevenson576 thanks Mike for making me smile ☺
Old School is the good stuff

Modern Renaissance Man....this is cool. Thanks for including some OGs! We appreciated your reaction and thanks for the kind words!! 😘
So waiting for this one! Bring back more 80s love songs
She was missing a significant other and herself with them. If you notice when the people were coming in the door, she was looking for someone.

Kool and the gang -cherish the love
Excellent tune!
One of my favorites growing up. I can't believe that I still know all the words.
Can you play Jane Childs , I don't what to fall in love.
Jane was great!
I remember this song back in middle school in the early 80s, good song.

Sade - No Ordinary Love
This song can be read many ways but now as a grown woman who is a remarried widow. This song makes me think of him.
She was sad cause she was leaving her family to go on tour. Good old school song
Pretty sure it was a breakup.
Who knows who this song was meant for I guess it can fit any format in any relationship. It’s definitely a beautiful song for sure
@@patrickpetrowsky8136 Lethal Weapon hit it exactly-this song is NOT about a (romantic) breakup, but about leaving family behind for one's career in music.
@@jmrx12 Not according to this. Scroll down to 1986.

Omg i love this song....im so old school. I was new school back when this was out. What memories this brings. Thank you!
This came out during my freshman year of high school.... and was still being requested on the radio when I graduated 4 years later.
The lead singer of this song, Joyce "Finderella" Irby was the group's bass player! The girl holding the bass in the video is actually the guitar player, Cheryl Cooley! The main lead singer of the group was Lorena "Lungs" Hardiman who sings lead on many of the groups other songs.

Love this song! Another good 1 is "All Cried Out" by Lisa Lisa & the Cult Jam.
I remember this video so well because I wanted to dress like them so badly. I coveted their clothes but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing that today. Damn 80's fashion!
Try checking out Oh Sheila by Ready For The World for some bass goodness and 80's fabulousness.
My sister's jam. I miss her, she passed in 1997.
sorry for your loss
Charles B. I’m sorry.
There is better places than here though, and now she is there.
Great song...! Beautifully sung.! was a big hit.

Love this song
The girl in the window was the singer. She was remembering past times. I always thought she was singing about her former love. When all the people came to visit, it seemed like she was hoping to see someone who did not come.
Love old school
"I'll never get over you getting over me"
Joyce Irby plays the bass and she sings as well. Live Klymaxx
Good evening from Britain Ty. Loved Klymaxx back in the day... please react to (1) Toni Braxton - You're Makin' Me High (Video Version) (2) Simply Red Holding Back the Years (3) En Vogue - Whatever. Love your reaction videos.
Terry Mastriantonio yes love them also
One of the most beautiful songs, in the saddest way.......I remember the 1st time I heard this, I just went through a break-up, & this touched me in such a way, I had to pull my car over until the song was over, & I pulled myself together.....Great to hear this again, especially since I have none of those feeling anymore!

I still say one of the best girl band ever.
I wish you'd do Champaign How bout' us
These old songs sure bring back childhood memories back when I was young without a care and life was simple
One of my favorite songs when I was in my 20s
Klymaxx upbeat song "Man size love".
I grew up roller skating to this group.
Karyn White - Superwoman - you won't regret it - her voice is incredible
YAAAAASSSS!!! Exceptional.
This Song Always reminded me of the young Michael Jackson’s Singing when I heard this
lost a wife to cancer we loved this song i still love and miss you fran
She missing he boyfriend. It was a breakup. Looking up towards the apartment she's thinking back about all the memories made.
That's how I interpret it.
AMAZING SONG,
BILLBOARD #5, 1985 💘
Nice song, but now give us some Blue Magic.....either "What's come over me" or "Spell"
The girl on the piano wrote the song and it was about a breakup.
Well, I had a laughing fit through about the whole 2nd verse when he said “Hmm.. Black Folks with a mullet.”
One thing to remember about classic music videos: often the video had little or nothing to do with the real meaning of the song.

Check Out The Bangles - Hazy Shade Of Winter
GREAT SONG!!
This song reminds of a jukebox in a laundry mat in the early 80's. Maui Hawaii. Mahalo for the memory train tonight... "Got the Salt and Pepper" 😂😂😂
They did Ladies Room too from 80’s.
Oh man... Those big shirts with the shoulder pads and leggings...
Gotta love the 80s...
But you have to admit - ballads and love songs of the 80s are some the best!
You should listen to The Men All Pause or Meeting In The Ladies Room by Klymaxx. My mom used to listen to them when we were kids. I like Bernadette the Drummer and she is so amusing and hilarious!
Runaway by Del Shannon
Its a person you need to hear meeting in the ladies room
It's like a dagger in my heart when you keep calling the music I used to dance to at my high school dances, old school!
I kid obviously, kind of😂 have you done Roxette "She's got the look" they were another I liked back in the day.
There were a few all girl rock bands who played there own instruments in the 80s. Here's an all girl rock band you should do a reaction to, Vixen singing, "Edge Of A Broken Heart"
Probably one of the best girl bands ever.
2021. Who else plays drums with classy gloves..???😎
If you want to check out an all girl band, react to "The Donna's". Either "Take it off" or "Who invited you". They might shock you Ty. These girls rock...hard! 🤘😎🎸
She was sad cause she and the band were going on tour.
I miss you tooooo
This is a great song
yes we rocked them as well mullet not me but some guys and women the guy from caneo check them out the song is candy he kinda kicked that look off i think ud like it as well as get a kick out of it watch it and let me know what u think maybe do a reaction vid for ir
and thnx for not stopping the video and talking and she was waiting for her boyfriend he came late to meet them all before they go on the road he showed up at the end she was waiting on him i think the puppy was to cheer her up
Lenny Williams Cause I Love You.
Left Eye Lisa playing Drums?
Do "Our Lips Are Sealed" by The Go Go's. Another all girls group from the 80's.
If you want to hear a heck of a song try Latimore singing "Lets straighten it out"
My mom use to play this song on my way to school omg sounds better than these songs today
You like all girl band's then try out Vixen or Go Go's lol
see how she keeps lookn for someone to come through the door its hee boyfriend
Please look up don't let me cross over God's mercy line and i have been bleesed, by redemption story.
I would love to hear your reaction, but most importantly just listen.
The fact that they r an all women band is cool and I like the song but the video is weird.
Klymaxx has better songs like Sexy and Girls Will Be Girls but they(record people) pushed this song hard until it was a hit. This album already had two hits--The Men All Pause & Meeting In The Ladies Room but to get to platinum I guess they needed a 3 hit.
all girl band
Hey could you please do Dixie Chicks you used to be mine! An Stevie Nicks Landslide Thanks in advance! Keep up the good work so many UA-cam people get popular and don't have the work ethic you do I so very appreciate that! ❤
I loved this group but this song is incredibly sappy.
BRO, Klymaxx reacted to your comments, and you didn’t even respond.
It's a break up song brethren
Can u react to panic at the disco high hopes
Panic did a great song called hallelujah too.
Same group of women
