Good Morning. This was a major comeback for him and while it didn't cross over to the Top 10 Pop it di well on the Dance Charts and the video got lots of airing on New York City Hot Tracks.
As a gay teenager in the 80s enduring bullying in high school and homophobia in the late 80s in college, Sylvester was a great escape! And he was fire at the clubs whether live or DJs playing his hits, like this classic!!
My dancing days big time here in Chicago at the house clubs, this song was played big time in the mixes back in the 1980’s. Frankie Knuckles and Power Plant ......memories of those times being younger in my twenties!!! Love Sylvester and DA is the bomb!!! RIP S AND FK
44 is not old ..enjoy your life sister or brother! "Someone like you" I was living in Japan around this time the song this is beautiful great memories...And Silvester was prime gold in the Disco era.😊
Thoughts today are of my old friend Sylvester. He passed away today in 1988. You are so missed Syl! That heavenly choir must be fierce! I still remember the day you filmed this video. It was so much fun! And yes, to those that have noticed, that is Debbie Allen in the video. She choreographed it. If you look closely, you will also notice someone else. There was this cute, young girl in a red dress that was one of her dancers that she brought to the shoot ... Jasmine Guy! She went on to star in "A Different World" and have a few hits of her own.
Sylvester is working these girls out here and giving us lots of FLAVA!!! Love me some Sylvester and Debbie is working it! This was played via mix Frankie Knuckles out the Powerplant in Chicago.
Yes ma'am. Sylvester was definitely one of the great pioneers as a gay men in music. Love it and this awesome song especially the video featuring Miss Deborah Allen
Back in October of 1986 this song right was my family's jam of every party on the dance floor Thank you Sylvester you had everybody dancing and grooving, and ever since you died we will remember "Someone Like You" in heaven 📺📻🎤🎶🎧
That "black girl dancer" is none other than the super talented dancer, choreographer, dance school instructor Debbie Allen. She's awesome. Remember Fame? Well, that was her. She's also the sister of Phylicia Rashad.
Chile………….. Debbie coming down those stairs at 25 seconds - looking over her shoulder at her husband is erthang.!!! To see Jasmine Guy & Aunt Viv doing the dagon thang is making me scream louder than Sylvester.!! When Debbie waves that boy away at 2:02 seconds is fire. Scream Sylvester!! Dance Yawll..!!! Yassssssssssssssssss
Loved this song played at the end up when he would come in on Sunday Mornings when i was bar-tending there at 6 am by myself he would sing and wake me up RIP
Eras feliz bailando toda la noche en los 80's no se en que segundo del tiempo se perdió la música, hoy no hay nada solo una peste que se llama Regueton😤
Debbie Allen, Paul Brown, Jasmine Guy, Otis Cerly or Oerly? (chore'pher) Darrelle, Marcial Gonzalez w/ black hat. I recognize a couple of more dancers but can't remember their names this filmed in New York. It was a fabulous time for all dancer's..this song brings me beautiful memories of that very year in the summer but the song was a beautiful hit throughout the rest of the year. SILVESTER was fabulous in the Disco era 🎭
J'adore cette musique...en plus c'est cool de voir qu'on demode les modes qu'on aime.. moi aussi je vous passe le bonjour de partout à travers le monde,../.
I'm still looking for the next Aretha, Whitney, Anita, Gladys, Oleta, Patti, Tina, Dionne, Miki, Regina to come along, although I do believe that Ledisi and Jill sing all over Bey and Ri. Packaging and marketing, that's all it takes to turn a non-singer into a star these days.
I don't care what y'all think of Sylvester , he was my favorite Diva ...sleep in eternal peace
Agreed 100%! There will NEVER be another Sylvester. Beautiful/powerful voice and so entertaining! Miss him to this day.
Sylvester was dope, dope, dope!
Me too
One of his most UNDER APPRECIATED songs. Used to dance my ass off to this!!

Janet Hubert of The Fresh Prince fame is one of the dancers, too. She was original Aunt Viv.
