I used to play this song so loud when I was a kid it used to shake my bedroom curtains. -) The neighbours were not happy, but I didn't care. Such a great tune. Sorry neighbourhood.
This brings back those memories. I used to have a very big crush on Jody Watley in those days. And I remember that they played that song during their concert in my University at Ife, Nigeria. Not long afterwards we heard that Jody got pregnant and soon afterwards was the sad breakup of Shalamar.
He's probably a 90s kid. You know how these 90s kids think they had the best music... Cough... Cough Spice Girls... I'm in my early 40s and I agree with you brother, glad I was alive then too
born in 1966. now with two boys (9 and 6) and guess what they are listening to. shalamar, kashif, sos band, change, t-connection, midnight star, atlantic star...........happy days. absolutely priceless. god bless and regards from zürich. ciao.
I have researched these music categories for the past 9 years and I have rediscovered tunes I had forgotten about or I discovered new tunes that totally deserved the time it took to discover them. In Itunes Store or Itunes Ping if you use the search terms "electrofunk" (as a single word) or "80s funk" the search result shall produce several lists that have "electrofunk" or "80s funk" in the playlist name in the "Playlist" category at the low left corner of the search result.
aka "Mad Dad" Yeah DiscoVinyl ... as a club DJ for many years thru the entire 80's and into the mid 90's I agree with you. Shalamar was under-rated. All their tunes kept the dance floor filled.. real favorites at the time.
my fave shalamar song, still makes me smile! i was raised on this kinda music, i feel sorry 4 the youth of 2day- they havent got a clue! keep posting the REAL tunes!!
Barbara Vire I haven't got a clue what you just said! Something about hating and making like a tree! There was no hate in this thread until you turned up!
'Our group'... We've been together 30yrs now and I still put it down to loving great 'FEEL GOOD' tracks like this!!!! Always laugh, Always dance, but you absolutely ALWAYS gotta SING...........xxx
This was a great song I'd almost forgot about. Absolutel fun. But there was so much drama behind the scenes with the group. I hated when they broke up. No one could ever replace Jody or Jeffrey!
@adamaalaa they were great times..all the dance music that meant anything was funky as. disco was dead on the radio but in nightclubs it survived and flourished. it all had a funky kind of edge. i miss those times.
Howard was so so gorgeous and handsome wow! he takes my breathe and that voice makes me melt! I can't stand it still like that today? best singer out their to me.
Love this Song, just met the Man I was going to marry, singing away getting ready for my day at work where we met, couldn't wait to get there and this music was a big part, thank you xx
They were so mighty. I think they were one of the most under-rated artists of the 80's.
Nothing underrated about them,simply the best,from London
Yes, they were overshadowed by Michael Jackson.

No one can sing like Howard Hewett. Just great!!!!!

😢
God I loved Howard's voice.❤
Oh yeah! He looks like my boyfriend
If you were a teenager in the 80s you were indeed blessed with this type of music everywhere, now we are in dystopian hell with crap music.
J habite en France, shalamar c est mon epoque
Exactly , miss the 80’s
💯
And I was that teenager jamming to Shalamar in the 80’s!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Seen them in concert many times,never disappointed ❤❤
I just loved this group ,they were my favourite ever during the 80s....without any doubt.
i am too. no one like they.
Mine too 👍🎶
Me too.
You got great taste Tracey, seen them many times live, they are fantastic
What a song - "There It Is". My favourite Shalamar song. Awesome!
A classic dance tune, and we in the UK know a damn good tune when we hear one. : )
that voice..so underated
BREIZE 1 pure gold
Not by me.. that song was the best of theirs 👍🎶🎵
Shoutout to my parents for having a great taste in music.
B × N J A M I N your comment makes me feel old,thanks.....I'm 43 and loved the 80,s. YOU MISSED OUT BOY.LOL.
He's probably a 90s kid. You know how these 90s kids think they had the best music... Cough... Cough Spice Girls... I'm in my early 40s and I agree with you brother, glad I was alive then too
Same here!
One of my favourite bass lines of all time. I love that sense of longing the music produces on this song. Jody Watley was so beautiful as well.
Brilliant produced by the legendary Nile Rodgers one of the greatest producer's of all time with the legendary Quincy Jones
Unbeatable. Bass, Vocals, Arrangement.
The voice and the base line is legendary ❤cool old school jamz
Shalamar - always good old fashioned love songs. Such a feel good era. Love it. Rock on!

You can't beat a bit of Shalamar!! I mean just listen to the funkiness of the beat and the bass, guitars with that synth :)

My favourite Shalamar song.
This top of the pops performance is not shown enough on the TV compared to other overthrown clips.
Jeez Hewitt had a great voice
wonderful song of the shalamar-there it is- thank you for this unforgettable memory..
Howard has the best voice
@adamaalaa they were great times..all the dance music that meant anything was funky as. disco was dead on the radio but in nightclubs it survived and flourished. it all had a funky kind of edge. i miss those times.
Howard was so so gorgeous and handsome wow! he takes my breathe and that voice makes me melt! I can't stand it still like that today? best singer out their to me.
Classic use of iconic disco whistles starts at 1:39 . . . and never ends.
Mr. PERFECTION
these guys were so BIG when I was in high school. Every one of their songs were the bomb.
Sheer class even after all these years
Shalamar has it all

Damn 1980s Howard Hewett is my new crush. His voice and his stage presence mmmmh

Shalamar songs always got us on the dance floor in the early 80's..
OMG their voices were perfect together.
Great music nothing will surpass this music
I heard when Jeffrey and Howard sing this song with Jeffrey rapping sound really good.
confounded whistles lol
