59 years “young” and this was our wedding song in 1985, still married today , 4 grandchildren, music like this was meant to last back then, we will be celebrating another anniversary soon😁👍✌🏼🎉🎂🍺
My mom passed away last month at 60 and she absolutely loves 70s 80s music. She would put on records and she would dance around the living room or play them in the car on Fridays after work while she took us out somewhere. I really miss her. Music helps induce memories of us together. Glad she introduced me to music of her time.
Almost 2024 and this song is the only one that can still touch that nerve. Sad for our young people, they'll never know the beauty of courtship, no phones, no computers.
This is the perfect song to go for drive on the freeway with the windows open or the sunroof open,playing really loud. I will definitely always remember this song.

63 it was so good i quit my architecture career to become full time fingerstyle guitar player and I looove playing this soulful song instrumental version
And still is actually.. just seen him on Nov 17th in Virginia at George Mason University arena place.. ojays was on the ticket, whispers, Howard Hewitt and El debarge and I solely went for El and Alexander, My man Al sounded so good, I was shocked and ecstatic at the same time. He is almost 80 and sound so good but he is a bit sick or something I believe but I was in heaven when he sang this, fake, and Saturday love with Cherrelle
This song reminds me of my late aunt. She even had it as her ringtone for years. I came here to Jam with her. May her precious soul continue to rest in peace❤️💐
Who's listening in 2024? If nostalgia had a song this would be it! I was 5 years old when this song was released, I wish I could go back and give my dad a hug 😔
I remember I was 10 years old. I was lying down in the back seat of my mom's green Nova listening to this while riding down the highway in Birmingham, AL at night. I would look at the street lights playing peek-a-boo while riding in the back seat. I felt so at peace.
@@dchrysostom Why would you get on this platform And lie like that? The same energy you give! You will get! And now someone’s somewhere else lying 🤥 about you! Smh 🤦♀️ some people just isn’t Human!
I don't know where to place the credits, without denying artistes their dues, but the songs that were written and/or produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis have something Unforgettable about them. Here we are, almost all agreeing there isn't music like this anymore.
I think of my Mom telling me about her first day with my Dad walking the boardwalk in New Jersey and this song came on and they danced, RIP Dad I hope wherever your spirit is you know Mom still dances to this for you…. ❤️🌹
You just brought tears to my eyes just saying this... God Bless Your wonderful Dad and God preserve your sweet beautiful mother. You stay Blessed FOREVER too Angel. Thanks Mr. Alexander O'Neill 🙏 I seriously wish the World 🌎 PEACE ✌️
This song right here is a classic great R&B song that will last the rest of time. Mr. o’Neal is 70 years old and still performing . It’s a blessing to see a survivor of this music industry.i put this song in repeat on my car playlist just a nice get to work song.

You know I think Alexander O'Neill is too underrated, he doesn't get mentioned in the same breath as some other legends but he's one of the greatest in my opinion. So glad my mum brought me up on this kind of music
I have always thought he was underrated. He belongs in the same group as Marvin, Luther and Teddy. I love Alexander O'Neill. It makes me feel so good to hear that people who were born after the 80s love his music. Every generation knows what good music sounds like. ❤💝❤️🔥💖
Maybe I am just being nostalgic, but I get such bitter sweet emotions from hearing the heart of the eighties music. I am 57 now, so would have been in my 20’s when this song was hitting. Such a beautiful vibe at that time, and this song for me is kinda an anthem for then. My only regret was not slowing down and soaking it all in, my goodness how much more simpler and pure things were then, and I simply didn’t have a clue.. 🥂 to the eighties and great artists that represented so well..
Watched his concert last night. His body is failing him, but his voice has lost nothing. Fantastic concert. Totally underrated. One of the best voiced of its genre.
HERE IN 2024!!! THIS SONG IS TIMELESS!!! I DONT CARE WHERE I AM IN THE WORLD!! THIS SONG GONE MAKE ME SWAY! 🤎🫶🏾🥰🥰🥰🥰 THANK YOU ALEXANDER FOR GIVING US A TIMELESS PIECE
Nobody from the Time wrote this Alexander was supposed to be the lead singer of the time but prince fired him, prince wouldn't let the time help him, a white guy wrote this
Hi uk here, yeah classy love song. Love everything about this tune. I do wish luther was alive still, would have loved to have seen him live. Amazing voice!
27 heard this for the first time this year. Dont use tiktok and never will. Song hits the soul man, so calming. Music like this just doesnt exist anymore. Greatful to have found this wonderful piece
I’m still loving and enjoying this masterpiece in 2022 and will continue to have good vibes from it! Thank you Mr. O’Neal for your talent and for the world to be able to enjoy this timeless piece.
Despite all the hardships, Alexander O’Neal still remains one of my favorite singers to ever grace a mic; his voice was powerful and unique like no other
I have all of the good old music in my phone from the 60 to today's music and he's one of them and sometimes I want to see them sing the song so then I look for a video
My first time hearing this song. I have heard Alexander’s Christmas songs before because I love the season and music. This song hit my spirit so fast and strong! It’s more than a seasonal song but for everyday. Thank you God for all the blessings received in 2024 and to come in 2025!
Never underestimate the impact of the music we listen to as teenagers.. Those crazy years of our lives when we are trying to establish our romantic identity... Compare that to what 16 year olds have to listen to now .
I just got out of prison in April and man this song a come on the radio and I'll just stop doing everything I'm doing and reflect on life..be happy breath and smile🙏
😂😂😂......hilarious! I was caught up in his voice until this comment and really looked at video. It is extremely corny the way he is looking😂😂😂. But most of the 80s videos were like this for R&B. He just looks a little off in this.....but he can sing!
Quiet storm at its best. A hidden gem by Alexander O’Neal. Beautifully crafted by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. A slow candle burner on a Friday/Saturday night. Music like this is timeless & lasts forever.
Got taken from my momma in the early 90’s every time my foster mom would play this I would cry every time! 😓 But this song is TIMELESS and I love it more as an adult. 🥰🥰
I’m 40 Now But I, can remember this song being played at my Aunts house she had all the house parties family and friends would stop by on Fridays all the kids would be running around playing ,the Adults drinking talking and laughing love and good vibes in the air but it’s funny how I remember all the music brings tears and joy to Me !
This song encapsulates my time growing up in the '80s...It touches my soul with a ghostly haunt whenever I hear it...What an Era!!!...'80s was the BEST!!!
At 56, this classic cut takes me back to 1988, Monterey California. I was stationed at ft. Ord Ca. for four years, and this song hits me, literally. My boys and I would go to the mall throughout the week to get fresh rags to wear to the club that Friday and Saturday. Man that time seems like it was 20 minutes ago, great vibes, great music, no thugs in the club, no guns, no violence, just straight up macking, getting your drink on, and seeing what female you're going to leave the club with...I need a time machine NOW!
For me it was the USAF and clubs in Scottsdale AZ ..all the ASU girls. but I adore Monterey, live in SoCal but I'd move to MB in a heartbeat. It was Alexander O'Neal. Keith Sweat, Al B Sure, Howard Hewitt..one of the few white boys who lived for R&B
Those were the days, I was in the Marines at Camp Pendleton, Ca in 1987, Our Enlisted club was packed every Friday and Saturday night.🔥. Miss those days.
59 years “young” and this was our wedding song in 1985, still married today , 4 grandchildren, music like this was meant to last back then, we will be celebrating another anniversary soon😁👍✌🏼🎉🎂🍺
God bless my brother 🙏
Happy anniversary to you and your wife 🙂
Awww I love tht for u🎉♥️thts so beautiful and worth being celebrated. I am going to get married to this song too♾️I am speaking it into existence🥰🙏🏾🌸
✊✊💪💪🦅🦅
Happy anniversary!
Can we just collectively decide to go back to these types of songs & instrumentals? 😭
😢
Straight up, I miss the days when artists had to actually be able to sing and not sell sex
Im down for it? What are some more songs like this one?
@@J-God_1999 Bobby caldwell 🤗
Thank you!@@angeletac.2384
I'm 56 yrs old and I have one thing to say about our 1980's. "You never know what you had until it's gone forever."
80s simple times with great music! Gen Xers know what’s good.
So very true!! Still grieving heavily about the ending of the '80's! Believe me!! 💘 🎶 Greatest time in history!
@davidwright4495 -I'm the same age as you...and I Completely agree with you! 💯% ❣
❤❤❤
True 💯✔️
This song for some reason gives me an nostalgic feeling of sadness, but uplifting at the same time
Makes me reflect and enhances my perception of what's going on around me. It makes the world almost move in slow-motion for me. So powerful.
Yep. It makes me miss my childhood and all my Loved ones that have passed on.
Same!
My mom passed away last month at 60 and she absolutely loves 70s 80s music. She would put on records and she would dance around the living room or play them in the car on Fridays after work while she took us out somewhere. I really miss her.

@kera600 So sorry for your loss dear.🙏🏾❤️🕊
These type of music will never die.
Never ever
Forever!
It gets better through time.
Never ever
Sad thing is we only can go back with this type ..nobody is making it anymore so its in a way dead... I love this type of music.
This never gets old. This man was so underrated. I love his soulful voice
💯Truth Sista. I miss these days.
@@timothyb3121 Yessss, I wish we could bring these days back again. They just don’t make music like this anymore.
Alexander this music never get old love it
Agreed! Timeless music
Truly he was
Almost 2024 and this song is the only one that can still touch that nerve. Sad for our young people, they'll never know the beauty of courtship, no phones, no computers.
im 15 and without internet i wouldnt even get to enjoy the beauty of this masterpiece so
I'm 36 young age but a old soul. I love this type of songs since I was younger as little girl.❤
@@amoretevree1149 yes my mom is around your age and showed me this song from her childhood and i love the 80s synth wave rnb style stuff
The feeling of getting a number from a guy on a piece of paper, or tying up the landline phone telling each other “you hang up 1st” 😂🥹😔❤️
@beautyinthedark7406 man, I remember those days…even falling asleep on the phone. I was born in 81 and this music has always been my first love ❤
This should have won a Grammy
Today's music has no remembrance, no character, no SOUL. Why this music stopped, i have no idea. Takes me back to happier days.
Couldn't have said it better myself!!💯
People won't appreciate this type of music
Same this is so beautiful
Agree..
Says you. Maybe because the singers today aren't all hopped up on cocaine? Well except Bruno Mars...
This is the perfect song to go for drive on the freeway with the windows open or the sunroof open,playing really loud. I will definitely always remember this song.
Facts!!!!!
Im with you 100%,I will do the same thing.
Yessssss and at night

LoL yes they should!
AGREE TO THIS!
I work there. What other songs do you think the grammy should recognize? If your list is good enough I can submit it. Otherwise Ill forget it forever.
Best idea I’ve heard in years.
@@skay6454 Says a lot about the low level ideas (and hence IQ) youve been exposing yourself to for YEARS.

Yessss so romantic...

I’m only 27 but I got a old soul !!! Even since a kid … it’s something bout these throwbacks that touch my soul 🔥🔥🔥🔥 good music is timeless
Absolutely agree with you ✨🙏🏾😍
Totally feel the same way as you ❤️🎶
hey old soul.
They don’t make music like this anymore
You have great taste
He’s the definition of 80s aesthetic. I love his videos🥹❤️
He wasn’t playin no games 💯
❤
So true! Makes sense that I hear this song in various vaporwave songs now lol😊
For all those who love the 80s, help me build a time machine so we can go back and have mind-blowing fun
I’m 64 & the 80’s were awesome. I’d go back in a second.
63 so agree
45 but I agree even though I was only a child. I remember well 😊
Me too I’m 63 I feel you 😊 80’s and 90’s
I agree definitely need a time machine and to stay in the 80's and 90's.
63 it was so good i quit my architecture career to become full time fingerstyle guitar player and I looove playing this soulful song instrumental version
Music was just DIFFERENT the 70's, 80's and 90's. Thank God we have music like this to take us back.
Especially the 80s
It was real back in those days before technology ruined it.
We will always have it.
no its was BETTER!! smooth and classy...
@@AllenPendletonsocial media ruined everything. People are less social now.
I listen to Alexander O'Neal music at least 3 times a week. Keeps me grounded in what real music is. Warms my soul in troubled times.
Soulful voice
Michael Hughes I’m 22 years old and this music speaks to me too
Love this song
Me too💞💞💞💞💞
Ditto!
Give Alexander his 💐 while he's still alive. He was an incredible singer❤
And still is actually.. just seen him on Nov 17th in Virginia at George Mason University arena place.. ojays was on the ticket, whispers, Howard Hewitt and El debarge and I solely went for El and Alexander, My man Al sounded so good, I was shocked and ecstatic at the same time. He is almost 80 and sound so good but he is a bit sick or something I believe but I was in heaven when he sang this, fake, and Saturday love with Cherrelle
It's 2024 November 18th a rainy day @O'neal shall forever be remembered thanks for the classics ❤
This song reminds me of my late aunt.
She even had it as her ringtone for years.
I came here to Jam with her.
May her precious soul continue to rest in peace❤️💐

Alex, luther, Freddie and not forgetting uncle Charlie, all great soul singers, and Jeffrey Osborne! Classic
we can be more than friends listenin to this jam 🤷🏿♂️
My dad loved this song. The guy would play it in every car ride and I'd think the man is crazy. Now I'm jamming to it. Rest in Power!
👌🙏❤️🙏

👌🙏❤
Rest in peace to your dad.
Who's listening in 2024?

Me too ❤
Me too ❤

80’s music was such an amazing decade for music no matter the genre.. classic
Me too!
This song is legendary. 80's babies get that feeling back every time it's played.
I remember I was 10 years old. I was lying down in the back seat of my mom's green Nova listening to this while riding down the highway in Birmingham, AL at night. I would look at the street lights playing peek-a-boo while riding in the back seat. I felt so at peace.
Beautiful memory
🥹🥰
Bham in the house.
😂 wow my Dad had a brown Nova , classic just like song
IV always love the city lights off the ham
This man was a badass R&B singer. Underrated asf. Ahead of his time. Bold, strong and righteous lyrics!!
Yes he was an amazing Vocalist.Peace
Too bad drug took him… he is amazing tho…
Underrated to who? Real ones know how good he is
@@dchrysostom you had to write this negative shit..look him up in Wikipedia and see that he is doing okay

They dont have it in em no mo. Trust me.
So true he will forever be a classic
They can’t
Nor is that “sound” around anymore...so smooth!!!! Jam & Lewis 😎😎was the TRUTH!!!!
I miss love songs like this 💗💞
There isn’t a better song that captures that 80’s vibe than this one. Best R&B song of all time
Real talk
Well said and timeless too 👌🙏

Enough
we are equal my brother.
Reminds me of waterbeds, house phones, and people that actually had conversations. 😩 love it! Miss it!!!

Thanks Mr. Alexander O'Neill 🙏
I seriously wish the World 🌎 PEACE ✌️
🥺
I’m 21 with a very old soul. I love this song, came here after listening to Anita baker body and soul. Such good music💕
Your ahead of the game if you already know this is some of the great music of the 80sand 90s cool for you!!!
You have great taste in music.
Me too!!!!!
You don't need an old soul to appreciate this genre of music, a deep soul is all that is required my friend ❤️
You were raised right! My daughters will be playing this for their kids, it’s in their blood now.
Who's here in 2024? ❤
Like I ain't never left.
This song defines a big part of my life, serving in Germany. Sang it to my girl over the phone.
I'd go back to those days in a minute.
Meeee
Like the quiet bookworm in the corner in Homeroom ... I'm here
I Love it in 2024 - soooo smoth❤
This song right here is a classic great R&B song that will last the rest of time. Mr. o’Neal is 70 years old and still performing . It’s a blessing to see a survivor of this music industry.i put this song in repeat on my car playlist just a nice get to work song.
I love this song so much. One of my favorites.
Love it to bit too
One of the greatest.......
Mine too. The best times for original artists and lyrics and tracks were the 80's.
Me too
I play it back to back😊
In a era with Luther, Freddie etc this dude held his own
Definitely
Yes he did
Mos Definitely
😂 Alex was a lil mo rugged, round around the edges. He had a little street edge. 💯
Fo real. Wasn’t he an American football star
It's 2022(so called) and this is still one of the coldest R&B songs ever. Peace and prosperity to true music lovers.
Thank you Clarence! I totally agree! 🎶 ❤
Yes indeed it never gets old!
Love the "so called"

Absolutely the best decade for real music bar none. The 70s and 90s had fire too, but none surpass the 80s
Watched his concert last night. His body is failing him, but his voice has lost nothing. Fantastic concert. Totally underrated. One of the best voiced of its genre.
His body is failing him..? This is terrible news.
He said he tried hard, so hard to beat a stubborn drug habit, but the problem just persisted. The consequences of drugs are usually devastating.
Luck you, where was the concert? I'm hoping to see him at the Royal Albert Hall next June 24.
never underrated.. drugs was his undoing.. 😔
Oh wow! I hate to hear that about him. Praying for him.
Im so glad I was born in the Era of the Best of R&B and Rap music!!! 🎶❤
Me too. Amen!!!
in my opinion this song is Alexander O’Neil’s magnum opus, you can tell he put his heart & soul into this, shout out to Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
This was produced by Monte' Moir (former member of The Time, and part of the Flyte Tyme camp)......
Yes it certainly is
Wrong shout out!!
Yesssssss
It was written and produced by Monte Moir 👌
Amazing how a song can take you right back in time to that very moment no matter how long ago...no matter how many years have passed....
Yeeeeees
Bringing back such beautiful memories!

Yes it gives me goosebumps. And sometimes I tear up reminiscing of days past
This man's voice and music was a staple in my childhood........the 80s and 90s produced some of the best R&B ever!

@Mazzi 267 South African, 😂😂
Nobody from the Time wrote this Alexander was supposed to be the lead singer of the time but prince fired him, prince wouldn't let the time help him, a white guy wrote this
I am proud to say that this was my era. I can't stop listening to this song.
Me too!

Truly underrated., And still a timeless classic!
Beats any RnB or Slow Jams tune today or ever since it came out!
Same and same. I am so addicted to this…

This is still a bop!!!
50yo and still listening......😂
I wish this version was still on Apple Music 😩😩 it just puts me in a really good mood ☺️
That's one way to put it 🤣😉
Email address
Yes! Why in the world isn’t this version on Apple Music?? The one out there now is terrible! I came to UA-cam for the real deal.
@@elisaekstrom-mcknight4009 literally. I downloaded this so g on Spotify and was like 😶🫠
who else is quarantined while grooving to this..,.
Best music ever made you would never hear anything like it now 💕👏
🙌
Right here 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Me what a fantastic track to listen to
Yesuh
One the the best jams ever! Masterpiece!!!! 🥰
27 heard this for the first time this year. Dont use tiktok and never will. Song hits the soul man, so calming. Music like this just doesnt exist anymore. Greatful to have found this wonderful piece
Same here! Old soul at heart. I’m 27, but 42 on the inside seriously!
@@ilovepink8684you know good music .

🙏🙏🙏
My condolences

❤
I’m still loving and enjoying this masterpiece in 2022 and will continue to have good vibes from it! Thank you Mr. O’Neal for your talent and for the world to be able to enjoy this timeless piece.
Timeless indeed.
Those who know, know, 56 and strong!
Man when this song came on. The floor got full in the blink of an eye. I miss the slow dancing days.
Despite all the hardships, Alexander O’Neal still remains one of my favorite singers to ever grace a mic; his voice was powerful and unique like no other
..
Ilove this song and commie to
Man, this was the JAM back in the day!! Still sounds great in April 2020!!! 🎶 🎶
Truth
In 2020; we still lack great music like this. 🥺
I have all of the good old music in my phone from the 60 to today's music and he's one of them and sometimes I want to see them sing the song so then I look for a video
Io l'ascolto ora 31 marzo 2020 💖
Minneapolis N your House !
MARY J. BLIGE is close, but damn nothing really like the 80's and 90's just in the best class by themselves...
The closest U can come to this is the weeknd earlier albums like trilogy
My first time hearing this song. I have heard Alexander’s Christmas songs before because I love the season and music. This song hit my spirit so fast and strong! It’s more than a seasonal song but for everyday. Thank you God for all the blessings received in 2024 and to come in 2025!
I was about to turn 16 years old in 1985 when I first heard this song and I never stop listening to this song.
Never underestimate the impact of the music we listen to as teenagers..
Those crazy years of our lives when we are trying to establish our romantic identity... Compare that to what 16 year olds have to listen to now .
True
@@lestercharles9856 so true. Scary also 😳
@@lestercharles9856 incomparable
This reminds me of my mum i am in tears miss her so much, she passed away over 2 years ago and it was her birthday yesterday 😢
❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️
STAY STRONG FAM. THROUGH WITH TIME COUNSELLING & POSITIVE MIND SET FAITHFUL SELF HELP MINISTRY & STRONG SUPPORT CAN BE YOU COPE.
Me too love still very heart broken.
I lost mine in 2019, stay strong and keep praying to Jesus.
I just got out of prison in April and man this song a come on the radio and I'll just stop doing everything I'm doing and reflect on life..be happy breath and smile🙏
Congratulations, welcome back!
@@marvinjosephhenderson9553 thanks brotha
Live in the now...U deserve it! Sorry for inconvenience of a pandemic! Just shows that we are all prisoners of circumstance😎
Welcome back to the world baby you'll get it right this time
Welcome home im waiting on my baby to come home next year. I pray GOD'S blessings for you. The best is yet to come
One of those tracks that makes your scalp tingle ... "Please don't keep me waiting - come to me." ❤Just so, so lovely
Gorgeous song, gorgeous silky vocals from the criminally underrated Alexander O'Neal
I'd give anything to go back to the 80's... these times are so terrible and sad
I too
4 sure l would also do the same
I wish
I'd take the 90's, but I absolutely feel you!!!
@@thep2340 I totally feel u the 90's were nice also
Alexander was the MAN of the 80's
Underrated. Handsome, debonair, a real soulful crooner.
Yesssssss
Jack D'Ripa not really his fault. MPLS in the 80’s it was everywhere. Most musicians used it to stay up for gigs. He just couldn’t put it down
@@chitownbroiler What is MPLS?
@Jack D'Ripa 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 im using that one
Alexander Has One Of The Greatest Voices Of R&B Music 🎙️
Song never gets old. Still has the same effect today as it did back then. Beautiful!
Yes Sir.Peace
Master piece
Kids !! this is real music!!
Lol
Amen!
We know💥
What's your definition of real music?
@@jakemiles1427 definitely not that 'Trap' music
They did Alex dirty on this video. This song deserved a video with 4x the budget.
A lot of the 80's videos were like this somebody just said that same thing about Dennis Edwards' don't look any further clip.
😂😂😂......hilarious! I was caught up in his voice until this comment and really looked at video. It is extremely corny the way he is looking😂😂😂. But most of the 80s videos were like this for R&B. He just looks a little off in this.....but he can sing!
Almost every 80s music video was super-corny and low budget-looking! And we COULD NOT WAIT for them to come on!😂🎉😂
It needed a female lead
I roll around with him 😅😅😅@@latriceshannel6598
Quiet storm at its best. A hidden gem by Alexander O’Neal. Beautifully crafted by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. A slow candle burner on a Friday/Saturday night. Music like this is timeless & lasts forever.
Got taken from my momma in the early 90’s every time my foster mom would play this I would cry every time! 😓 But this song is TIMELESS and I love it more as an adult. 🥰🥰
Hope you are doing well friend
Did you ever reconnect with her @eatwithkarma?
Alexander’s vocals. Amazing 💕
Yes he was a true Vocalist.Peace
So smooth
One of the best recordings ever just listen to the emotion in that voice wonderful
I’m 40 Now But I, can remember this song being played at my Aunts house she had all the house parties family and friends would stop by on Fridays all the kids would be running around playing ,the Adults drinking talking and laughing love and good vibes in the air but it’s funny how I remember all the music brings tears and joy to Me !
Man put this jam back on Spotify
Werd!!
It’s on Spotify now
@@angieb6161 naw that ain't it chief
It’s not on AppleMusic anymore either and I wanna delete the whole thing
@@tonistark33 Yeah it is
One of the best songs of all time. Everything Alexander did was a joy to listen to. Love him
I truly agree with you.. His music is amazing
Just a man singing his heart and soul out. Makes me think about them good ole days.
This song encapsulates my time growing up in the '80s...It touches my soul with a ghostly haunt whenever I hear it...What an Era!!!...'80s was the BEST!!!
All them nights in night clubs
Alexander O'Neil is so under rated.. That voice.. and he's such a nice man
At 56, this classic cut takes me back to 1988, Monterey California. I was stationed at ft. Ord Ca. for four years, and this song hits me, literally. My boys and I would go to the mall throughout the week to get fresh rags to wear to the club that Friday and Saturday. Man that time seems like it was 20 minutes ago, great vibes, great music, no thugs in the club, no guns, no violence, just straight up macking, getting your drink on, and seeing what female you're going to leave the club with...I need a time machine NOW!
i reember that i was at planet ord also seaside monterey and carmel i miss thosedaysat the club and the cukoos nest
i did a state champs bicycle race on fort Ord ! nasty hill we had to do.. yes this tune still bumps too !
I always say the same thing…someone please invent a Time Machine. I’d love to go back to 1991!
For me it was the USAF and clubs in Scottsdale AZ ..all the ASU girls. but I adore Monterey, live in SoCal but I'd move to MB in a heartbeat. It was Alexander O'Neal. Keith Sweat, Al B Sure, Howard Hewitt..one of the few white boys who lived for R&B
Those were the days, I was in the Marines at Camp Pendleton, Ca in 1987, Our Enlisted club was packed every Friday and Saturday night.🔥. Miss those days.
