As a young man 19 at the time in a fiery sexual relationship with my girl, I always equated Evelyn music with how she might be feeling, Evelyn voice, her looks, and dance exuded a strong sexual understanding, and I mean that wholesomely Complimentary...it was like genuinely sexual honesty, I think she spoke for all of us. and her expression was 100%
Even though I knew she was a teen when she made, "Shame," a person could have SWORN that she was about 27(twenty-seven) years of age by the way that she sounded.
IT IS A SHAME It's 2024-2025 It's Megellin Domini and nobody knows and nobody cares Lol Love gets in your arms and I don't want to live with the pain people I don't want a war in heaven and I don't know how I am going to feel in the next life but I'm need mental health because I will be dysfunctional I will be change of environment and change of habits My social dysfunction will be mental dysfunction And I do Sex Orgasm is a social thing And in the end I can win I'm borderline people I'm not nuts I know what's going on Hey I wear glasses The rules of the glasses You can never take them off you can never make another person wear them and you see things for what they are Now does that sound like a lunatic Lol Well I just don't let my money get in my way to success Hey Do you honestly think God created money in the first place Lol I do music and numbers Hell with the B/S people Don't let money come between us
Even As an Old Metal head, I’ve always thought this bass line is one of the best of all time! But then again, I listen to Everything, old R&B, Rock, Metal, Country… but this Bassline!!!
Back in the day, my toddler son heard this song start up. He immediately started to bounce and grin. I just sent this to him and told him how much his grandmother loved seeing him react with so much enthusiasm.
One of the best songs to dance to at the Disco. Those were the best days ever. Those days will never be here again but the music still remains the best.
New her when this came out, her sister lived across the hall from me in Philly. We all were close and used to go out to clubs during the disco days. Lot of fun💕
Que de souvenirs de cette glorieuse époque. J'avais 12 ans en 1978, il me fallait l'écouter à la radio et puis l'acheter en 45 tours dans la seule librairie du village, voir le commander. Trop drôle rien que d'y penser, j'esquisse un sourire.
I really love everything about this song.. The instruments, Her GODLY voice, the lyrics, the breakdown AND the ending is PERFECT! I miss my godfather playing the oldies RiP
Well, you have an ear for the good stuff. This was on the radio a lot when I was in h.s....all us goofy Boston girls loved her voice, the song, the instrumentals...but in those years we had no way of knowing who, what, where...I just looked her up. She was a teenager herself when she sang this. Which makes it all the more amazing...
Later on, during the backlash there were people who cried "Disco Sucks". Like any other musical trend, there was good and bad. This was one of the greats! Straight, Gay, Black, White...all jamming on the dance floor. BEAUTIFUL!
Bac in 70”s ? When my Father was running wild. My Moms was a youngen at that time. They both not here no more but the memories are forever especially with classics like this
1978 militaire dans l'armée de l'air , j'était en discothèque dans le sud de la France a Avignon (les 2 G) wouahhh quand j'ai entendu ce morceau une dinguerie sur " dance floor " ; elle est resté gravé à jamais dans mon esprit et mon cœur ...!!
Every time I hear Champagne King , I think about my Disco D.J. " Paco " 92 ktu , from New York City , radio . " Thank You " , Paco Navarro Manuel , for putting Disco sound in my life . may you rest in peace/ Angle tears / Saint love , take you home . And I mean it .
Just seen her tonight live in San Francisco at the Hotel Nikko, i was even able to get her autograph & she still has a powerful voice & she still get down & dance at 63
Memories. Back when I was a child, there was a show called Hot Trax that aired on Saturday mornings in NYC on one of the UHF channels. If you're not a certain age, you probably won't know what that is. Anyway, when I first discovered this show, the first music video I ever saw in my life was "Love Come Down" by Evelyn "Champagne" King. Classic music! Too bad we can't go back!
Shame Burning, you keep my whole body yearning You got me so confused It's a shame Sometimes I think I'm going insane But still I wanna stay Wrapped in your arms Is where I wanna be, wanna be Wrapped in your arms That's my high, my high Shame, ooh My mother says you're playing a game And what you do to me is a Shame Ooh, gonna love you just the same Mama just don't understand Wrapped in your arms Is where I wanna be, wanna be Wrapped in your arms That's my high, my high I can't get enough, ooh baby Enough of that magic touch Love is in my heart Tearing the rules apart So, why should I be ashamed Only love can be to blame If we lose our love it's a Shame Ooh, I wouldn't want to live with the pain Gonna stay forever Wrapped in your arms Is where I wanna be, wanna be Wrapped in your arms That's my high, my high Shame Ooh, only love can be to blame If we lose our love it's a Shame Ooh, I wouldn't wanna live with the pain Shame Ain't no reason for me to need to wait Ooh, ooh it's a shame
Tom D. & I were working at Midway Airlines in Chicago & the CEO with a small entourage were touring & saw us dancing a bit while working to this on WDAI Radio in 1980. They laughed & the CEO said “very good”.
I seen Evelyn in Vegas 6years ago and she can still drop it like its hot lol I live in Utah and seen her here at da club 3years ago she fascinating I've loved her music since 6th grade 30 years later i endore this woman still
This is a bad ass song .
Nothing now days compares
Flashback: 1978!
Still listening in 2024. This song may be 46 years old, but it still jams. Bring back the classics, ANYDAY.
She was 17 years old when recording this yet did it with the maturity and vocal quality of someone several years older!
I never knew she was so young. That’s remarkable!!
As a young man 19 at the time in a fiery sexual relationship with my girl, I always equated Evelyn music with how she might be feeling, Evelyn voice, her looks, and dance exuded a strong sexual understanding, and I mean that wholesomely Complimentary...it was like genuinely sexual honesty, I think she spoke for all of us. and her expression was 100%
Factssss
Even though I knew she was a teen when she made, "Shame," a person could have SWORN that she was about 27(twenty-seven) years of age by the way that she sounded.
Really ? I never. Knew that
Still listening to this masterpiece 2024 ❤️
That's a damn sbhame😂
IT IS A SHAME
It's 2024-2025
It's Megellin Domini and nobody knows and nobody cares
Lol
Love gets in your arms and I don't want to live with the pain people
I don't want a war in heaven and I don't know how I am going to feel in the next life but I'm need mental health because I will be dysfunctional
I will be change of environment and change of habits
My social dysfunction will be mental dysfunction
And I do
Sex
Orgasm is a social thing
And in the end I can win
I'm borderline people
I'm not nuts
I know what's going on
Hey
I wear glasses
The rules of the glasses
You can never take them off you can never make another person wear them and you see things for what they are
Now does that sound like a lunatic
Lol
Well I just don't let my money get in my way to success
Hey
Do you honestly think God created money in the first place
Lol
I do music and numbers
Hell with the B/S people
Don't let money come between us
ME, TOO!!❤❤❤😊😊😊💃
Can't EVER Stop listening to the VERY BEST Music EVER!!❤❤❤❤❤❤💃
🔥🔥🔥
Even As an Old Metal head, I’ve always thought this bass line is one of the best of all time! But then again, I listen to Everything, old R&B, Rock, Metal, Country… but this Bassline!!!
As an old metal head as well I agree this song is incredible
same brother, 80s thrash all the way but this ROCKS!!!
Can we all just appreciate that this talented girl was only 16 and managed to belt out this phenomenal song!
i am a heavy metalhead and i blast this song at full volume. thank you mom for showing me this rocking tune.
Your mom has great taste! I was 16 when this song was out I'm also a rocker but I've always loved this song always have to hear it every now and then!
I'm a country boy and I really like this song
Back in the day, my toddler son heard this song start up. He immediately started to bounce and grin. I just sent this to him and told him how much his grandmother loved seeing him react with so much enthusiasm.
Saxophonist is top class. SHAME. Something we all suffer from and this song is a protest against any form of it aimed at loving the “wrong” person
That’s Sam Peake.
I love old music. Im only 31yo but im really supposed to be 70yo because i have have old soul and LOVE these oldies but goldies!
Why can’t we just make music like this y’all 😢
I know can't beat it
Absolutely 100% agree 🐘😁👍.
You learn to sing like this singing in Black Baptist churches. Get to church, boy!
@@LouiseHelton amen 🙏🙌
One of the best Disco songs ever!
Why can't we bring this genre of music back? All it takes is an artist with vision & a hit record, the rest will follow!. Today's music rots!!!
Just look at the number of people involved in producing a track like this :
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shame_(Evelyn_%22Champagne%22_King_song)
? Whose still rockin' this jam in 2024 ?
This is a CLASSIC.....Love Evelyn King's music
She needs a hall of fame nod! 💗
Neffii 8, the song by "Champagne," was BAAAD.
❤
2024 still rocking !!!!
That bass riff is so tuff.
One of the best songs to dance to at the Disco. Those were the best days ever. Those days will never be here again but the music still remains the best.
❤
She even says, Mama jus don' undahstan
😁
New her when this came out, her sister lived across the hall from me in Philly. We all were close and used to go out to clubs during the disco days. Lot of fun💕

Roller skating to this is the shit!! 👊🏼
This beat is so good it flies like a freakin' Spaceship
Few Queens of DISCO !!!!!!!!!!!! Evelyn......NO QUESTION !!!!!!!!! I danced myself stupid to her voice !!!!!!!!! Gracias Evelyn !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bartending back in the 70's this song came on dance floor was immediately packed .. Even us bartending were dancing.
Later on, during the backlash there were people who cried "Disco Sucks". Like any other musical trend, there was good and bad. This was one of the greats! Straight, Gay, Black, White...all jamming on the dance floor. BEAUTIFUL!
Omg I’m 29 I wish like hell I could see that. Times has changed so much
O yaah broo0
There’s a few clubs in LA that play dance music from all eras (The Virgil) and this song would get WALLFLOWERS ON THE FLOOR

Still listening in '2024' 'Shame was the club dancing song in the late 70's I was there for it ❤
Me too! Best times of my life!
I immediately think of Studio 54 when I hear this song.
Wish I could go back to the summer of 1978.
Every time I hear Champagne King , I think about my Disco D.J. " Paco " 92 ktu , from New York City , radio . " Thank You " , Paco Navarro Manuel , for putting Disco sound in my life . may you rest in peace/ Angle tears / Saint love , take you home . And I mean it .
These beats give me life.. i wish it comes back again to music industry.. i tired of electronically arranged beats.
And your grandma thinks this disco crap is a bunch of noise…. Times change!
Loved this sooo much inthe summer of 78 ❤️Still gives me chills in June of 2021❤️❤️
Are you related to Hal Wilkerson of Malcolm in the Middle? ;-)
damn that sound good "Summer of 78" wish I was born then lmao sounds like a cool movie/story intro.
She doesn't have to show and shake her behind like fantasia and Beyonce she captivates the audience with her voice. Go ahead girl.
Right on. ... lol...if I hear one more thing about Cowboy Carter...
She is a true pioneer woman back in 70's.

Even though I’m a guy I used to sing this song every other day on the school bus in the 6th grade. Needless to say I got a standing ovation each time.
Wish I could have seen you!!😊🎶🎶

Memories of '78

This song was the quintessential 70s disco song, it played every club and was a guarantee hook up.😂
Thanks mom for brainwashin me with tha gud stuff❗️❗️
Ain’t know reason for me to feel this way!!!…❤️❤️
Evelyn was only 17 when this song was recorded.
Her voice was definitely mature
Wow. I had no idea. Thanks for that info
That is amazing! Had no idea. Thanks!
she was actually 14 almost 15 years olds. She said it in an interview.
She was a cleaner in their studios,two weeks later after an exec heard her singing while cleaning she was making her first album there

@ceebee - I bet it did! Just having envy over here.
Phenomenal want to run into a time machine and be transported back to the 1970's.
Shame
Burning, you keep my whole body yearning
You got me so confused
It's a shame
Sometimes I think I'm going insane
But still I wanna stay
Wrapped in your arms
Is where I wanna be, wanna be
Wrapped in your arms
That's my high, my high
Shame, ooh
My mother says you're playing a game
And what you do to me is a
Shame
Ooh, gonna love you just the same
Mama just don't understand
Wrapped in your arms
Is where I wanna be, wanna be
Wrapped in your arms
That's my high, my high
I can't get enough, ooh baby
Enough of that magic touch
Love is in my heart
Tearing the rules apart
So, why should I be ashamed
Only love can be to blame
If we lose our love it's a
Shame
Ooh, I wouldn't want to live with the pain
Gonna stay forever
Wrapped in your arms
Is where I wanna be, wanna be
Wrapped in your arms
That's my high, my high
Shame
Ooh, only love can be to blame
If we lose our love it's a
Shame
Ooh, I wouldn't wanna live with the pain
Shame
Ain't no reason for me to need to wait
Ooh, ooh it's a shame
Thank you
She was sleeping with her mom man.
