Coming up back in the day, man a bunch of good times came to mind ,all the people, the backyards bar-b-ques,the house parties, summer in the parks concerts, & the cruises down to Marshall's Hall amusement park, live entertainment on the Wilson line boat ,driving over to the shrimpboat for some seafood take-out or to the greasy-spoon for a fat burger & fries ,miss those days alot of fun & bad times too ,the people who have passed away that made life coming up fun ,may they forever R.I.P. ,(amen) To All I Say This, Remember your past ,hold it dear to your heart &never let go
"Late at night, an empty feeling takes control of me and I can't fight it.." Sending some love to my fellow loners, losers, outcasts, the misunderstood. Anyone who keeps it together all day just to be reminded at night there's something missing in your life. You do your best to go fill that void with whatever you can...drugs, sex, alcohol...late night taco bell? Doesn't really matter does it. Know that even though you're lonely, you're not the only one.
I have a 27 year old daughter who has Autism and she's nonverbal. She loves The Stylistics. She can't hold a conversation but she can sing. She sings all of their songs
you can only write this if you've been there or looking for someone you lost out there. I know what a terrible feeling. if you know someone lost go find them they could use your love and understanding before its too late into the night.
I've walked the streets alone for so many years, does the pain ever go away. I listen to this song and my heart is so heavy looking for love and understanding. can you imagine being alone in a crowded room? living in the shadows I know the empty feeling in my soul. maybe one day I'll find my company out there somewhere.
I absolutely lived in a home like that my entire life, i felt so lonely and sought others to fill that void and i felt even worse and emptier...but the trick that worked was turning that search inward, for company and validation and although I am alone...I no longer feel lonely. I learned me and realized no one owes me their company...I do. Now I feel so fulfilled....I started my "falling in like with myself" journey in 2019 and am working thru my conditional love of myself and eventually I will finish at unconditional love for me...your search will end when you find you....alone. Trust me your community will follow....mine did ❤ Goodluck Love..😊😊
@@myststyque Thank You so much for the kind words and the encouragement I'm taking your advice and learning to love me. and to stop looking for comfort in the ones who are bringing me discomfort. I'm so tired of going to sleep sad and waking up the same way it's such a lonely place and I'm learning how to cope in a loveless marriage where things are not reciprocal thank you again.
I pray and hope, dedicate this song to my cousin, I hope you’re safe somewhere out there. I love you so much and miss you. I hope you’re safe if you ever come across this song, cuz Nika always welcomes you with open wings, and hoping you’re looking at the moon the same time I am. I love you no matter what. Listen to the angels and god, we all know how strong you are. It’s never the end. I love you
Thom Bell, one of the greatest songwriters ever, cowrote this with his frequent partner Linda Creed. He wrote or cowrote most of the Stylistics hits & many of the Spinners & Delfonics songs as well.
I was a young teen when fell for a young lady and we went different ways as we grew older and this was the song we danced to in our ending. Still tugs at my heart as a older man. Love is something else!
I was born in 69 in the Hotlanta.The R&B and Souls Stations played the Stylistics thru out the 70's! So they are a soundtrack of Life! This will never get old.
I agree, I believe it is describing someone who is lonely. A lonely, kindred, restless soul who is roaming late at night with the same kindred souls in search of solace. The song is haunting until the first verse, it then becomes tranquilizing as is it a emotional, yet very relatable song. Those adlibs toward the end are trance like, but in a calming soothing tone. 👏🏾💕✨
I walk, I walk, I walk I walk, I walk, I walk I keep on walking, they tried but can't stop me No blocking my way, I was born for this shit 2022 - yung li
Don't let it be. I was one them factually. I'm an introvert. Academically and technically intelligent beyond my years as a boy. My siblings identified me as strange and everything else not normal. Thus Children of the Night. Who wound up with technical jobs down through time, even at my worst. Children of the Night, we have dreams we turn real. A reality we can touch or experience. Don't let the dreams die inside you. My friend from a boy grew to be a physicist. Fan from the 60's.
Then your daughter has a great talent!!! Not only can she listen to the Statlistics, but she can feel it in he heart , the music and lyrics deep in her heart!!😅😅❤
This is for the runaways… the sex workers… the ones disowned by family due to who they love and prefer to be identified as…as well as those who battle the demon of addiction … 🫵🏽 are the Children of the Night … you are loved regardless! God said so… ❤️🩹
I had this tune of this song stuck in my head since 1970’s and today I whistled the tune in google and it showed me this song. Listening to it makes me so happy, remembering the days.
A feen would understand this song the most 😢this song is so powerful and so so deep...it speaks too you if you had deep struggle and crept out at into the lonely night. What a gem 💎 of a song...who still listens to this in 2024?❤I'm here still bumping this
PRAISE DAH MOST HIGHEST ITS FACTS !!! DIS SONG, REMINDS ME ! OF PARADISE!!!! RIGHT HERE IN TAMERIA !!;;; BEEN LISTENING SINCE 1974 DAH STRINGS ❤❤❤ ARE THE BEST!!!! 2024 NOW!!!
No sé inglés, sin embargo hay un sentimiento que me rebaza y no lo sé describir, lo siento en mi corazón. Stylistics de toda mi vida. Qué sentimiento transmiten. Únicos. Bendiciones 😇😇😇
I used to sneak out of the house via my bedroom window and kick it with my peeps. This song has deep meaning. I ran away all the time back then. Children of the night!!
It's so sad that they broke up and now have two groups.. 🤔🤔Russell has so many people believing he doesn't miss his brothers from other mother, but I know different. 🤗🤗
Bemorecareful Respect I agree with you I wished that they hadn't broken up also I just love the stylistics when I was younger and even more today because their so songs are lit it brings back so many memories of long ago

FOR REAL. MEMORIES FROM "THE CHI" FOR ME. 😊
So very true
You're definitely reminiscing of the good old days in DC❤

People Make the World Go Round is equally stunning.
One of the most gangster songs I ever heard

That is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

You Are Not Alone and I know this brings no comfort
Yes I can realistically understand

This songs makes me contemplate any homeless children who have no family or support system
Wrong concept. It's about gay people
It was my interpretation and perspective, irrespective of sexual orientation.. Each to his or her own
Thom Bell, one of the greatest songwriters ever, cowrote this with his frequent partner Linda Creed. He wrote or cowrote most of the Stylistics hits & many of the Spinners & Delfonics songs as well.
Memories of my childhood when family mattered.. Rest easy auntie
Right. Family values have changed😢
Lucky enough to grow up with this music..old school lives on forever..
I was a young teen when fell for a young lady and we went different ways as we grew older and this was the song we danced to in our ending. Still tugs at my heart as a older man.
Love is something else!
Love this song.
It's too bad we'll never have groups that make this kind of music again...Music for the ages!
I was born in 69 in the Hotlanta.The R&B and Souls Stations played the Stylistics thru out the 70's! So they are a soundtrack of Life! This will never get old.
Still sounding so good in 2023!
This song is deep.
Better no it ❤
My soul loves this song❤
Mines to❤
One of the most gorgeous songs ever written or performed.
Yes indeed 💯🎶
So true.
BLACKS, BRING DISCO BACK PUUUUUULEEEEEASE!
I DON’T EVEN LISTEN TO RADIO ANYMORE. WE NEED MUSIC THAT MAKE US BE IN LOVE EVERYDAY.
WHITES, STOP SIGNING GARBAGE MUSIC ACT WHEN THERE IS SO MUCH TALENT OUT THERE THAT GETS IGNORED. See how easy that is.😊
I've been listening to the Stylistics since 1985 (16 years old) and still listening! 🔥🎶💯
Deep a loner and outcast theme anthem 😥😢😪😔
When I'm sad and depress... I listen to this at night to soothe my heart and soul 💔
when music was great
Beautiful Voice! I appreciate lyrics of course but, this brothers voice and control is one of the best EVER!
Round 2 by the Stylistics is one of my favorite albums by the group along with their self titled debut album.
@@delam1970 They are 2 of my all-time favorite albums by any artist.
I used to play that when I was in high school and all alone. Now Im 68 still play it still alone..😢😊
One of the most beautiful songs
Prime cut. Haunting, almost scary song. About the folks we don't want to admit we would care about if we only knew what to do.
Great, great mood song.
Great comment, could you elaborate please?

UNMATCHED!!!🏆🏆🏆
2023 still listening
Went to a great party at Russell's house. What a voice with that Thom Bell production. The Stylistics were the ish.
I walk, I walk, I walk
I walk, I walk, I walk
I keep on walking, they tried but can't stop me
No blocking my way, I was born for this shit
2022 - yung li

SO BEAUTIFUL AND HAUNTING..STYLISTICS FOREVER
Songs of the 1970s when I was in Junior and High school --- childhood memories stimulates our Mind.
When I was a teen we all knew who the Stylistics were
WHEN they made Round 2 it was probably the best album out at that time and I can sing every song on that album!
This Song Is So Heartbreaking. 💔😢

Love this song my mom introduced me to all the old music and i knew then we are one in the same.
We truly are... Have a blessed night
Thom Bell and the Stylistics made some beautful music.
Can't leave out the incredible song writer Linda Creed who worked with Tom Bell.
Then your daughter has a great talent!!! Not only can she listen to the Statlistics, but she can feel it in he heart , the music and lyrics deep in her heart!!😅😅❤
Another Thom Bell Linda creed song just fantastic 🎶🎶🙏

yun li - l walk (feat. Massaru)
My new favorite Stylistics song... Maybe song period!
MFSB and the arrangers knew how to set the mood!
Was wondering who had done the arraignment on this song but since u mention it (it makes sense).
I used to sneak out of the house via my bedroom window and kick it with my peeps. This song has deep meaning. I ran away all the time back then. Children of the night!!
Here 2024... OMG, PLEASE HELP US ALL 😭
ALL THAT AND SOME... SMOKE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙👁👁
Classic forever!
It's so sad that they broke up and now have two groups.. 🤔🤔Russell has so many people believing he doesn't miss his brothers from other mother, but I know different. 🤗🤗

Anthem for street people, Ps, 304s, hustlers, gangsters, lost ones, that 42nd St and 8th Ave crowd, circa 1980s. If you know, you know.
The theme song for people working lonely night shifts...
