I'm a white guy too. 46 now. I love these tunes from Kool and the Gang. Color should have nothing to do with it. This is good music. I love the guitar. Misled was another of my favs. I'm right there with you antonio.
Charlene Johnson. Color ain't nothing but skin. Like MLK said , and I am old enough to have heard it live, " it's not the color of one's skin but the strength of one's character"
Kool & The Gang . Greatest ever!!!!! They are in rhythm in all there songs. James T. Taylor makes Kool & The Gang . Something is wrong if you dislike this great music. Greatest!!!!
@@CMVasquez8812 At my last check of wikipedia he's still alive. I checked because I'm going to their February concert and was curious as to the band makeup.
That is so cool, its good to experience all genres of music. During the 80's I listened to Whitesnake, Motley Crue, RATT, Def Leppard, and Van Halen. I also listened to Hall & Oates, Kool and the Gang, DeBarge, New Edition. The guitar work on K&TG song Misled is cool too.
RIP to the co founder of Kool & The Gang, Ronald Bell. They gave us the best dancing, romantic and rockin’ music. I love the guitar in this one. I miss this music so much, thanks UA-cam!

I think George and Kool are the only members of the classic line up left. JT does not perform in the group anymore. I love playing and singing their music at home on my arranger keyboard.
Congratulations to Kool and the Gang on 55 years of success and great music. They have sold more than 80 million albums. This is one of my personal favorites Thank you gentlemen
..THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT,the greatest!, in my heart ..."The greatest song Kool and The Gang"...has ever made,composed and sung...This song when u hear it is so fresh when you hear it today, they were so ahead of there time when this song ever came out. God Bless Tonight and God Bless 'Kool and The Gang"...without a f*&kin doubt!,man!!!!!!!!
I remember this song and I loved this song I was 14 and I remember hearing it on the radio and I probably watched it on videos back then LOL but yes one of my favorites I love to Kool & the gang always have always will can't believe it's been so many years I feel so old.
By far, their best song! I watch it about once a year or more. I think it has one of the best basslines and chord progressions of all of their songs. The whole thing is tight!
I agree. It’s got that tight rock funk sound to it. Michael Jackson and even Gap Band did sounds like this during that period. That’s why they all managed to have crossover appeal.
Love the song of course. But what’s amazing to me is the group choreography all going on with the musical performance. One of my absolute favorite videos.
This should be a dance challenge 🤣 Tonight the light is shining bright 😁JT with his headband on awww man...the light from the Lord is shining on so many of us and it's Beautiful...welp stay Strong and know that the Lord is always with and fighting for you.. especially before he's about to Bless you😌 Kool and the Gang🔥 Great Music 🔥
Because corporations pick what they think will sell. Used to get paid to sit in groups and pick out songs liked best. They would play those songs over and over, till our favorites became hated.
This song is just epic!!! I'm more into rock than dance music but this rocks from start to finish. Everything is tight here, the dance moves, the harmonies, the guitar solo and when you think it can't get any better... 2:10 boom!!! Awesome!!!
This song goes down as the best song ever that people never hear or knew about. I was 15 when I first discovered this song. So much soul and groove. The girl they sing about must be smoking hot! I hope you are enjoying this song tonight. Ooh!
In 82 My dad picks us up from the roller rink in Germany one evening with a guy with a big fro in the car....he soon the guy is with Kool And The Gang.!!!!
I just adore this group. So rhythmic. Vocally, musically.' Iadies night' has to be my favourite. Everyone on the dance floor to Kool and the gang. 🎤 🕺 x
This is an example what the entertainment industry shoul provide you with...pure talent, singing and dancing...to put it short - the whole package. Sad to see that today's industry doesn't provide the whole package.
Kool and The Gang is the soundtrack of my life.They ruled the 80's.My entire family loves them.Great feel good music.RIP Ronald Khalis Bell.May peace be upon him..❤
Excellent!! Lyrics: Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light My 16th Birthday I Was So Shy Not Yet a Man But Ready to Try Music Playing People Saying I Looked Around She Caught My Eye Walked Into the Room I Couldn't Hardly See There She Was Moving Closer to Me She Told Me Her Name Before I Could Speak Took My Hand and Then She Said These Words to Me Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light That's What She Said Me Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light Hey Beautiful Girl So Lovely Tonight Show Me the Way Show Me the Light Music Playing People Swaying Next Thing I Knew We Started to Groove Dancing and Dancing Moving So Free A Feeling of Love Had Come Over Me I Held Her Close and Knew It Was Right What a Perfect Surprise I Had Finally Seen the Light Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light Tonight, Ooooh This Is the Night You'll See the Light Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light Baby Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light Baby Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light You Will See, Ooh You Will See the Light Tonight You Will Finally See the Light Ooooh Yeah Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You Oh Come On I Want to Dance Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You
This was my group back in the 80s, Congratulations to them being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, long overdue ❤
The 70s
The greatest funk band ever to me.
I'm a 45 year old white man and if you don't like "Kool" there's something wrong with ya. JT Taylor is bad ass!!!!
👍👍👍👍
Platecrumb,WTF is that suppose to mean? It doesn't matter what race you are, everyone loves Kool and the Gang!!
I'm a white guy too. 46 now. I love these tunes from Kool and the Gang. Color should have nothing to do with it. This is good music. I love the guitar. Misled was another of my favs. I'm right there with you antonio.
Charlene Johnson. Color ain't nothing but skin. Like MLK said , and I am old enough to have heard it live, " it's not the color of one's skin but the strength of one's character"
I'm white too ! and i love it ! my dear white brother !
The guitar work is amazing
I'm a 57 yr old Gen Xer , big bearded Santa Claus looking dude , let me Tell You Kool and the Gang are still on Fire to Me. "Tonight " is my Jam!!!!
Thank you 80s, always great.
Kool & The Gang . Greatest ever!!!!! They are in rhythm in all there songs. James T. Taylor makes Kool & The Gang .
Something is wrong if you dislike this great music. Greatest!!!!
I'm 64. And they are the bomb 💣❤
WE HAD THE BEST MUSIC IN THE 80'S! WE WERE SO LUCKY!!
We had the best everything in the 80s
@Anita, absofreakin' lutely. Nothing touches it. Heard this on SXM and will admit I had forgotten this one. So good to hear it again.
Very true. Most of the stuff from the 90s was pretty cool too
Hi Anita,hope you’re okay ?
👍🎵🎼
I don't think any group can ever top this music as Kool and the Gang performed. They were a one of a kind!
You are not wrong, but all the great songs and bands have that sound that extends beyond them and us , forever.
This song is one of the reasons I'll never forget the 1980's.
❤❤❤❤❤l the 8o
❤❤❤❤❤l the 80's too,and I grew up in it. 💛💙💞😊😊😊😊
The 70's & 80's the best ever for music!
Kool & the Gang came out in the early seventies
This man has one of the most beautiful voices on earth. And no one can sing these songs like he does. James JT Taylor you are a legend.
sure is...nobody can sing like j.t
@@michaelgustafson2454 I heard he passed...😭is it true???.I love him....his voice since JHS❤🙏😞
J.T was so talented...
He Had A Golden Voice & he never recieved the recognition he deserved
@@CMVasquez8812 At my last check of wikipedia he's still alive. I checked because I'm going to their February concert and was curious as to the band makeup.
So much talent for sure!
I remember growing up listening to these guys. Good music. ❤
I am a 80s heavy metal fan at heart. I was also a K&TG fan and this song here rocks. The guitar work is bad ass.
That is so cool, its good to experience all genres of music. During the 80's I listened to Whitesnake, Motley Crue, RATT, Def Leppard, and Van Halen. I also listened to Hall & Oates, Kool and the Gang, DeBarge, New Edition. The guitar work on K&TG song Misled is cool too.
Rockfan here and yes...the guitar is just as good as the best rock guitar.
The BASS is also
That bass always killed it.
Sounds like they took a hint from toto:s playbook back then.
Perfect blend of rock , soul and funk!
One of the best bands of our generation
This song could last 20 minutes and it still wouldn't be enough.
I quite agree with you!
Really. I bought it on 45rpm in 83
I've played it back.2.back2....
way over 20 minutes & it still wasn't enough
@@cm37177
Me too!
Esse vocalista faz meu coração bater mais forte❤❤❤lindo lindo lindo
One of the best songs from the entire decade. If you don't like that guitar solo, you don't like real music. Jam on.
I like the song. But the dance. On stage kind of silly. My opinion
Oh....so Kool
@@michaelmaricle2432
for once a group of boys is doing a choreography...
You have to be lenient 😄😉
I would have given anything to see them in concert back in the day. I still love them
This has got to be one of their BEST SONGS from the 80's! You don't hardly ever hear this song on the radio anymore!
Facts, its celebration sometimes ladies night but little else. These guys had tons of hits that all deserve airplay
This performance always puts me in a good mood. They were 🔥
NOW THIS IS TALENT
The young music generation needs to watch this and Learn.🤣😂
I saw them for the first time at Disney world bk inlike 78. I was mesmerized by J T he is incredible!!❤🧡💛💙💚💜💖
RIP to the co founder of Kool & The Gang, Ronald Bell. They gave us the best dancing, romantic and rockin’ music. I love the guitar in this one. I miss this music so much, thanks UA-cam!

What ????...😭😭😭😭Rip my teen idol
JT Taylor is so underrated as singer his vocals are superb 👏 ❤🎉
Damn, JT was sooo good looking! This song will NEVER get old !
This group just wanted to make you dance....makes me feel 17 again....love it!
Never gets old, a true classic! 👋👋👋👋
Si gracias
My Dude Micheal Ray always threw everything he had into a song.
Congratulations to Kool and the Gang on 55 years of success and great music. They have sold more than 80 million albums. This is one of my personal favorites Thank you gentlemen
Tonight you’ll finally see the light! Love that section.
This is when black guys were real singers. Unlike the garbage rappers today
I hear mostly rappers that I grew up with or good rappers like Eminem who will always be my fave rapper.
This has got to be my fav kool n the gang song, love their music ❤
..THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT,the greatest!, in my heart ..."The greatest song Kool and The Gang"...has ever made,composed and sung...This song when u hear it is so fresh when you hear it today, they were so ahead of there time when this song ever came out. God Bless Tonight and God Bless 'Kool and The Gang"...without a f*&kin doubt!,man!!!!!!!!
Beautiful song indeed. It kind of reminds me of when I was entering adulthood. Loved it then and still love it to date. Great song!!!
This song never gets old
I love this group ! One of my favorite song is Mislead ❤
I love that falsetto Harmony part " Tonight, you'll finally see the light."
what a beautiful voice 🤩👍
I never get tired of listening to this song.
Right now, it's day.....but tonight, I'll be in a delightful mood! Must feel happy, y'all!
I remember this song and I loved this song I was 14 and I remember hearing it on the radio and I probably watched it on videos back then LOL but yes one of my favorites I love to Kool & the gang always have always will can't believe it's been so many years I feel so old.
This group is awesome, my brother said it was the best concert he's ever seen
Going old school with songs like these are the best ones you can listen to.
As a 60 something yr old, if you dont like Kool and the Gang, you ain't white🤣👍🔥👏
Okay bro
Just turned 69 on June 4. Gonna see them with En Vogue on Sunday in Lenox, Mass. YEAH BAYBEE🎉🎉
BOL!
Adoro esse hit. Saudades ❤. KATG
I would give anything to go back to the 80’s. Such an AWESOME decade to be alive.
Tonight you will finally see the light ...
By far, their best song! I watch it about once a year or more. I think it has one of the best basslines and chord progressions of all of their songs. The whole thing is tight!
My favorite is summer madness
I agree. It’s got that tight rock funk sound to it. Michael Jackson and even Gap Band did sounds like this during that period. That’s why they all managed to have crossover appeal.
Not even close to their best song
I agree. "Tonight" i's my favorite song...with "Ladies night", of course 😃❤
Misled definitely still hits in 2023
Love the song of course. But what’s amazing to me is the group choreography all going on with the musical performance. One of my absolute favorite videos.
This should be a dance challenge 🤣
Tonight the light is shining bright 😁JT with his headband on awww man...the light from the Lord is shining on so many of us and it's Beautiful...welp stay Strong and know that the Lord is always with and fighting for you.. especially before he's about to Bless you😌
Kool and the Gang🔥
Great Music 🔥
I’ve been to 180 concerts in my lifetime, my 1st was kool and the gang 1979 .
I'm addicted to this song.💝🔥🎵🎶🎼
Watch this daily. That guitar player whoa.
Why can't music be like this today???
wow, JT was hot!
Because corporations pick what they think will sell. Used to get paid to sit in groups and pick out songs liked best. They would play those songs over and over, till our favorites became hated.
Kool & the gang, they were part of the 70 and 80 so Great music
One of THE best voices 👌 ❤️ EVER
Their music literally had everything!
"The voice" is James JT Taylor. He is simply the best.
I thought the 'Spinners had a good lead , too. and another group "Father was a rolling stone"...."
Not one of their bigger hits which it should have been but never the less a banger, the 80s wil never be equaled.
That guitar work is amazing......these guys are heroes in music history. Great work Kool and the Gang and thanks for the musical memories.
yoyoyo bravo X)
i was born in 1987
but i uv these old skool disco beats!!!
funk funk funk it UP!!!
Love the guitar solo.
When I first heard this song I was surprised they put a rock edge to it It was outside their comfort zone
The music I grew up upon... How time flies..the silky voice of JT Taylor is ear-candy. Kool& The Gang will live forever. 🙏🌷👋🍀❤️
I miss this music so much.....I'm not putting today's music down, but I just can't listen to it!!
Well; I AM - personally - putting today's "music" (noise) down, and I'm neither afraid nor ashamed to say it !
The driving force of this piece is that great bass line!
Miguel Mory absolutely
Miguel Mory strongly agree. The bass as fantastic.
Kool could tear that thing up.
Plus those power cords from guitar all comes together for one hell of a rock funk track.
Majestic music and song 💕
Kudos to all the performers, what a killer guitar solo !
RIP, Ronald Bell. You were one of the 80s best!!
He always had that voice that went so well with this band!!! Thanks for all those awesome songs you belted out...Such great memories even till today.
I TOTALLY LOVE watching them Dance,it makes me want to Grove right with them LOL 😆🤣❣️
This song is just epic!!! I'm more into rock than dance music but this rocks from start to finish. Everything is tight here, the dance moves, the harmonies, the guitar solo and when you think it can't get any better... 2:10 boom!!! Awesome!!!
Des guitares 🎸 bien rock dans le style funk du groupe.
Superbe mélange qu'ils auraient pu développer dans d'autres chansons
This song goes down as the best song ever that people never hear or knew about. I was 15 when I first discovered this song. So much soul and groove. The girl they sing about must be smoking hot! I hope you are enjoying this song tonight. Ooh!
In 82 My dad picks us up from the roller rink in Germany one evening with a guy with a big fro in the car....he soon the guy is with Kool And The Gang.!!!!
I just adore this group. So rhythmic. Vocally, musically.' Iadies night' has to be my favourite. Everyone on the dance floor to Kool and the gang. 🎤 🕺 x
I use to skate to this song and it sounded awesome over the big speakers. It got me pumped!!! Lol
I love this video, the driving bass guitar, the lead guitar solo, the choreography
One of the most Supreme singers, of the seventies and eighties, They make me feel young again, great dance music!!😊😊😊❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Makes you wanna get up and dance......great rhythm and bassline
Hi Angela,hope you’re okay ?
Omg. The way JT moves. I’m falling in love with him all over again!!!
Loved this song. I think this group was trying to reinvent itself in 84.
That's one bad ass guitar on this song.Really good.
My favorite song amazing awsome love kool and the gang they rocked 💞💞💞never gets old let's stay in the 80s forever 💞💞💞
KOOL,JT, AND THE GANG FOREVER.
This is an example what the entertainment industry shoul provide you with...pure talent, singing and dancing...to put it short - the whole package. Sad to see that today's industry doesn't provide the whole package.
I fully agree 💯 with you and you never waiting your in this band 🇿🇦
Waisting your money to go to show for this band
I'm with you! (57yrs old)
I could listen to this all day!!!!!!
Me too
@@rosalesbyron9011 , 🎧🎼🎵🎶🎤🎹🎻 , 📢🎸🎸📢⬆
And all night.
Me too where did real music go
Oohh babyyy y'll see the light I wanna dance all night...
The 80s is an era I will never for get I live it like no other
Ha! what a badass tune, from the year my daughter was born and now she gets to go see them Saturday in Atlantic City.......Lucky kid! You go girl....
NOW THIS GANG IS REALLY KOOL
This band takes me back to good times!!❤
Killer guitar solo!
These guys straight up KILLED it!!!
freshlove1 ....YES ❤❤❤❤

Kool and The Gang is the soundtrack of my life.They ruled the 80's.My entire family loves them.Great feel good music.RIP Ronald Khalis Bell.May peace be upon him..❤
Excellent!! Lyrics:
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
My 16th Birthday I Was So Shy
Not Yet a Man But Ready to Try
Music Playing People Saying
I Looked Around She Caught My Eye
Walked Into the Room I Couldn't Hardly See
There She Was Moving Closer to Me
She Told Me Her Name Before I Could Speak
Took My Hand and Then She Said These Words to Me
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
That's What She Said Me
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
Hey Beautiful Girl So Lovely Tonight
Show Me the Way Show Me the Light
Music Playing People Swaying
Next Thing I Knew We Started to Groove
Dancing and Dancing Moving So Free
A Feeling of Love Had Come Over Me
I Held Her Close and Knew It Was Right
What a Perfect Surprise I Had Finally Seen the Light
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
Tonight, Ooooh
This Is the Night You'll See the Light
Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light Baby
Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light Baby
Tonight, You Will Finally See the Light
You Will See, Ooh You Will See the Light
Tonight You Will Finally See the Light
Ooooh Yeah
Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You
Oh Come On I Want to Dance
Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You
Oh Come On I Want to Dance With You
That's what I call talent! Dance moves, instrument mastering and the voices.
Very true. Those days are over.
Kool and The Gang are iconic !!
