Rest in peace Larry and Paul. Float on.
You got that right, no doubt!!
One of the best songs ever recorded
They don't make silky smooth music like this anymore. I could listen to this forever.
The idea for the lyrics was to spotlight each member of the band was really cool at the time. They introduced themselves with their name and astrological sign. The verses read like personal ads, as each member makes his pitch to the ladies. They briefly expressed their true feelings of what kind of woman they liked. Brilliant!
You got that right!! No doubt!
We're lucky to have UA-cam!! ♥️😀♥️

Eu na adolescência. Amo demais esta música. Realmente fui muito sortuda ❤

I'm a DJ and I played this at a tiki bar... I had a dozen girls dancing to this.... Thank you, Floaters... I remember when this song came out. Give me the 70s again.
My mom would listen to this as she drove. I miss her now I know why she played it. She was pretending to float off to love land while I was still in car I love you mom

The long version of this song is my start of the day music. So to all my fellow Floaters out there ....... Floattt....Onnnn.....Yeahhhhhhhh!!!😊
December 2023 and this music is still a classic, the good old days
Aries..on the cusp..and my name is Rob. I like a woman who can see past the powder blue tuxes and the cheesy spoken word intros, and can appreciate the smoothness of the chorus, and how it (and the tuxes) brings back my own seventies memories...
When music has talent and purpose.
Man,these dudes sounded great.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Libra, and my names is Charles. Sang chile!!!! Love all them, but Charles is my favorite 😍
They are phenomenal 😍 ❤️
Best song ever
Nothing beats old school smooth 🔥
Oh.... and the suits are so so flamboyant 😂❤
Where all the backing singers are lead singers, really amazing 👏
A elegância, não apenas na vestimenta, mas nos gestos e principalmente na música.
Sim 👍👍
Sem dúvida.Elegantissimos.
2024 Still listening 🔥🔥🔥
These guys exemplify grace, elegance, dignity and SOUL.
Oh yessssssssirrreeeeee. Romance and soul. You can't beat these guy's. Master's of soul xxxxxxxxx
Bought this 45 when it came out in 1977 and I still have it!😀
It's a shame that music lost its magic, and now we hear the drummer carrying the beat to anger and disruption. I always enjoyed this song.
What a great song and video. Great choreography.
I have never heard this song before. I was 23 in 1979. Busy with a new marriage, new baby, just starting college and a part time job…I guess I was too busy.
Reached NO.1 this week in the U.K. (22/08/1977) knocking Brotherhood Of Man "Angelo" off the top spot.
The week after Elvis died.
The floaters were the best, sure there was other bands that were hitting the charts back then but no one sang like the floaters (float on).
RIP Larry and Paul!!!
Great song! All the singers - great! Definitely has a 'float' feel about it. Shame this was their only big hit, but heck, quality not quantity.
One of my mothers fav songs!! I didnt get it when she played it when i was a teenager!! Im 50 now and def get it!!! 😢
Saudade dessa epoca maravilhosa ❤
Una delle piu' belle canzoni degli anni 70...che emozioni quando la si ascoltava alla radio...👏👏👏👍
Y’all had the best music in the 70!s
This song was DA BOMB!! Especially @1:20 Sing it!!!
Love love love this song …….loved all 70’s (and 60’s) music …we will probably never hear music like this again
Música de qualidade você ouve 1 2 3 milhões de vezes e não enjoa essa música é um clássico, lindíssima para pessoas de Garbo Elegância.💖🎷💖🎸💖🎷💖🎸💖🎷💖🎸.
PERFECT !! Saudades boas !!
👍🏻 Concordo
Super song that I have rediscovered. And the choreography is amazing. 🔥❤
Absolute epitome of gold standard dance routines and superb individual vocal ability - but for me, Larry always had the edge ...
My name is LARRY 😂😂😂😂
Aaahhhhh..... those were the days with one of the best songs ever
💖💖💖
Eu viajo no tempo, era a minha música preferida na época (me recordo de uma quase namorada)kkkkkk

1981 FOI A PRIMEIRA VEZ QUE OUVI ESSA MÚSICA! NUNCA MAIS PAREI DE OUVI-LA!
Larry owned it with that one.
He was the man!!!
Top Pop Of The Decades Music. KEEP IT UP. God Bless You So Much.
Music healed alot of people
E.S.G.- "Smoke On" brought me here. This song is a whole vibe!
This song always smashes me profoundly. What I privilege must have been birth in this decade.
I have to admit, I cried so much after hearing this
PS. The last guy reminded me childish gambino.
Come, take my hand. I play this in my love land. We walked in our nieces house and her 9 year old was grooven to Float On! Sweet. And the boy has moves and already is a ladies man. Gotta love life!
What a great song, so smooth and listenable. Some really terrific music came out of the 1970´s, music like this.
Bliss sound. Great choreography and styling. Once heard never forgotten. Phrases that have come back into my head over the past 40 or so years. Would like to hear more of their sound...music in UK was always limited to what was doled out to us..and the radio DJ s. Or am I wrong?
This brings back memories! It was back to school time, and the State Fair was Starting Up in Richmond in September of '77 growing up listening to WLEE Pop/Rock Station in Richmond Virginia! WANT Soul Station.
Maravilhoso! Grupo nota 100!!!👏👏✨💫🤩 anos 70 !!!...
Bellos seres humanos!Talentosos! Temazo divino!Los amo!❤❤❤❤
This music 🎶 reminds me of Sunday nights listening to the oldies ❤
Que saudades dessa época !! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😊
Oh how I wish we could all go back to these days and times!!!!
Aplausos, simplesmente demais.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.
A treat for the beautiful people.
In 1977 I met my husband to be. He played this song in his 73 El Dorado Coup. Brings back tender and special memories of genuine love. Married 30 plus years, RIP until we meet again in heavens glory.
The amount of times I’ve said “Cancer! And my name is Larry!” and people don’t get the reference is too numerous.
:p
@2:48
I might look for an opportunity to borrow that.
@@Playbyplaymedia please fucking do!
@@Mattteus I just read that "Larry" died in 2019. There's an audience for this; just don't wait too long!
Memories....when music was real...❤
3:49 It’s classy, timeless and not made anymore. Beautiful brothers from Detroit. Float on!
I am impressed from 1970 to 1994 with the formidable musical quality 👏👏👏 while today it is rubbish.😝
I'd say from 1954 to 1993 the rest of 90s was lot's of rap hip hop,grunge bands music wasn't good anymore and started going down hill fast.
Who you telling 🤦🏾♂️ we used to have decent R&B songs up until the early 2000’s now it’s just trash Rap music with no message
I love the choreography.
Now, which one i would choose: Charles😊
Congratulations Floaters Bands. KEEP IT UP SIR From Allan David. God Bless You So Much.
Really good song. It reminds me of Al Wilson "Show And Tell".
