    Used to cruise the hood as kids blasting this til you felt that bass move through your soul. We partook in the flowers back then but mostly our group was hard sports. Im talkin freshman piitching 90mph fast ball. Hoop/FB. But cruising to this and mixes like it put us on that "natural high" that we didn't get and I havent had it again since. Although it brings back ALL the chill memories. This was 84 when you settled it with a fist fight and then forgot a bout it. Jumped back in the whip and busted out with Cutie Pie. Peace.

      I was a young teenager when this song came out and I had just gotten into the R and B/Funk scene of music. The base and rhythm just blew me away. I would play it over and over on a cassette walk man player with headphones on in my bed at night before going to sleep. Became one of my all time favorite songs and still is. It always brings me back to that much more innocent time in life when things were still new, there was still so much to come and discover in life..........

      Not crazy to me @el champeon. Good music is good music. Also I think radio stations played more variety then. I grew up in a Black American family outside of Seattle and mostly everyone was Swedish or Norwegian descent. We listened to everything back then. Rock, Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers, Bob Denver, and all kinds of R&B music. I was a little kid, but oldest bro and sister were teens during this era. I remember opening my window so that I could listen to the teenagers conversations and their music. My siblings didn't want their little sisters around them all of the time. We had to follow along in secret. Ha!

      I believe it’s the quality of speakers not the size. I’ve heard big speakers that sound terrible, while on the other hand I’ve listened to smaller quality speakers that sound amazing, but very expensive. Add a sub and the required bass is evident

    This awesome tune literally just popped into my head! I was 18 when it first hit the clubs and TOTP. It’s now Nov’24. Unforgettable times and memories of days, nights, weekends that will never be replicated again. Those were the days and years pass by without even realising 😩True of the saying..you only get one shot at it! One life, Live it…to the max, make it count and have awesome memories like this one!!! 💯🔥

      BB when a song fills those spaces within you, you genuinely know that “this” is something special so naturally the song stands out much more than your typical listening choice.Adding to the fact no doubt that the word “special “ is an accurate descriptive choice word that automatically sums up the song. It’s a good and unique feeling is it not??

    I was born July 21, 83 and I can still remember in the late 80s going to the skating ring with moma and her friends on grown folk night and the floor would be packed. Even the sideline. A sight to see at 5 and 6 years old. Michael Jackson thriller was the biggest thing too. But this song is a real real classic. 808’s and so much energy. The skating ring was like a concert. People rode around and blasted this. You had to be part of the world then cause if you weren’t or wasn’t born around this era, you missed out on the greatest time in world history. The world was so free and full of the vibe!! All the women were beautiful. Parties weren’t parties if this didn’t play at least 3 times. This was real club music. For all types of people, white, blacks, gangsters, d-boy girls. Funk and disco. This was it

    Man, I miss Soul Train. All us suburban white kids got our taste of R&B on Saturday mornings - when I was supposed to be out mowing the lawn! I love SOS band. Have this on CD and play it in the garage all the time. Kids walking by stop and listen, so that tells you something right there!
