Lyrics:
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm, hey
Things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
It's the things that make you go, oh, oh, oh
When I was living in Atlanta, I had a roomie, Claire. Every morning, we started the day listening to this song. Claire has since passed but is forever in my heart.
Wow great story. Thanks for sharing
You have My Deepest Condolences 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂
RIP Claire.
Very suspicious comment to leave….
I don't care what anyone else says. THIS is the best C+C Music Factory song.
It just is 😄
It's up there but they have other great songs too Gonna Make You Sweat is a great song too
30 years later and I’m listening with new ears. Still legendary, especially now that I’m not 6 and can understand what is being sung about. I wish lyricists were like this today.
Agreed completely...had this song show up in my brain's "MP3 player" outa nowhere for some reason. I was about 10 back in the day. Catchy song then...now I come watch and listen and reality strikes again. This is all to common a tale.
Im his Freedoms . this is a , adapted true story. Lol
That "Why you guys always askin' me that?" line, kills me every time I listen to this song. 🤣
Me to like so Me to me what about U hay

We Love You.
The woman in this video is Zelma Davis, an incredibly talented studio vocalist who just happens to be beautiful (unlike about 99% of studio vocalists). I have an amusing story about her. One day back in the late 1980's in Hollywood, I was in a Taco Bell. The background music was playing John Lennon's, "Imagine", which is an award winning incredible track. You wouldn't think it could possibly be improved upon. Then from across the floor there came an angelic, magical voice singing along with it softly. It was AMAZING! It was like, "This would have been a thousand times more popular if this woman had only been on the recording!" I had to go see who it was. Yeah. Okay. It was Zelma Davis. Same woman as is in this video. She was a triple-scale studio vocalist and key to the success of C&C Music Factory. She had it all. Then got mixed up with the very wrong people.
She was very young, I often thought why are they giving her such a hard time. She was very talented on her own, too bad she was used like that.
She didn't sing in the song everybody dance now, though just lip synced.. probably this one too
@@Szmanzer i googled it all
@@Szmanzer Zelma sang some songs on the album and this song was one of them
@@Zollowsixthy4 Actually the Original Album Version has Martha Wash but after all the legal disputes they re-recorded THIS SONG for the Video with Zelma Davis... But Yeah Davis had a few SOLO songs on the Album... Great voice.
MTV’s generation always will remember and apreciate this vibe!❤
❤😂
never saw the vid til today, but yes. MTV was a great era.
I N D E E D
Before autotune, folks.
THIS is what MTV used to be.
You know... when it played music videos.
before twerking )))
Before LGBT...
Incredibly infectious track and the video is exceptionally good given it was made in 1991 - frankly if this was released now it would look and sound bang up to date. Hard to believe this is thirty two years old at the time of writing this...
It's such a catchy song that Will Smith decided to steal it
I've heard this song many times, but this is the first time I've seen this video and I have to say that I'm very amused with this. It's very creative. Why can't we still have more music and videos like this anymore...? Damn..
Also checkout Dela Soul
Hmmmm
@@BonkersAboutAlice VERY de la vibe
I’ve missed the day when music was fun and positive. I’m so burnt out on gangsta rap and I with it would phase out at some point.
Studios don’t want to spend the money anymore.
Their old stuff is still some of their best. Always loved this song. Really takes me back to hear it again.
30 years later, one of the most groundbreaking music videos ever, dazzling from start to end. These video producers came from another constellation.
Check out this version ua-cam.com/video/IbVlnDDjuO4/v-deo.html
Do you ever listen to other music??
Gosh ! 31 yrs by now. I mean......where have they gone??? f..k.
@@chynadole1991 Reg is talking about the video ffs. Do you read the comments you comment on? He’s damn right - decades later this is a smooth as heck video.
😂
Here we are 2024.
I'm going hmmmm continually 😢
Word. 😅
The visual artistry of that video is still impressive.
There is so much contagious energy in this song that it always charges my battery.
We need a music channel on TV that plays nothing but 80's and 90's music.
We do. It's called the internet.
@@moshkteer that's not a tv channel. Thats the Internet.
We did until they messed up Vh1 like they did Mtv
DO IT!!!! I WILL HAPPILY BE A PART OF THAT!!!Bet y damn near anything that we can do it for free,making like a library wiki music for free and to add from 80's n 90's.in ......maybe a week or less depending on folks net access n memories n such like.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I miss being late to things because MY video was coming up and I couldn't miss it. It made it extra-special.
This is one of those songs that come up in your head at least once a month even though you've not heard it entirely since the mid-90s.
That’s so true. When something is off, I find myself singing the corus “ things that make you go hmmm”
Like today! Hmm😮 why did you pop into my head!
@@Isimplywenttoschoolyour name is kinda insane
@@cc.99. IKR? Like today! It seems like every time I encounter a sketchy situation this song pops into my head. That's the power of music 🎶
Nah. Never happened.
I am born 1981 and am raised with 90's music! Best years of my life.
That bass line Segway into groove is in the heart makes a killer playlist or /dj set
Love you God Bless THe U.S.A and all who are covered by Christ!!!
Damn I loved this song and video back in the day, and it still holds up.
fun times
Pure class🎉
🎉❤
Classic!!!😊🎧
C+C Music Factory is proof that the 90s KICKED IT upside downside left and right! All over!
thecrowrains no doubt
In, Out and Roundabout, Y'all!
Maybe, but the 80's we're a million times better!
Yeah, but this was early 90s which was still basically the 80s. By 93 Grunge and Gangsta Rap had sucked the fun out of everything. Things recovered by late 90s but there were a few grim years there.
agree. grunge was awful.
One billion times better than current pop music.
Agree! There is Freedom and there is Jay Z….. 🤮🤮🤮
Word
I’m so glad to have been a teenager in the early 90s. Today’s young have no idea what they missed. 🙁
They created some of the best dance jams of all time just timeless
Nostalgia. In my 40s now. Liked this back then. Still like it now. Lol.
There's a lotta things that make me go hmmm. Several yrs later & I still contiously think about this song. Because of just anything in general that makes me go hmmm. Although I can't really tell you any certain memory attached to this song. Well holy ish you're 45. I'm 36, 37 in July. I must look like to you, what younger folks look like to me.
I hear that
Me too
Same
I am 52 and here in
"2020" 80's were great
I feel like some people aren't understanding that this song is about things that make you suspicious, not things that make you feel good.
Lol yeah we know.
mrmorgan41 No, you know, not we. I did say some people. If you read the comments some people really aren't getting it.
eileen58 agreed :)
Seriously, people think that's what it's about? (That's it's about things that make you feel good, I mean.)
I totally agree.
No Cursing, No extra aggression…… just good cheesy light hearted story telling and good vibes!
Light hearted? How?
Yeah. That’s missing from most songs these days.
@@miketurin5233
Looks great opportunity possible p
You're being sarcastic, right? This song is not at all "light hearted" rage testing, cheating and other things that make you go hmmm.
oh for sure. Gonna make you Sweat Is My Favorite " Club Banger" Get up off ya Seat And make ya Shat that boo- Tay
We know the song is great, but the art direction in this video is really cool!
There is a trend around the 90s new jack swing videos which take a bit from Keith Harring, a bit from the memphis design and a bit from similar and make wonderful videos, but yeah, this may be the peak
@@Risingson2 hauh
D dplgyd mi t ok F
He
Yah, Jack, that's one of the reason why i LAAAAVVV listenin to them more than Freddie Aguilar or the songs by Air supply or Madonna!
This song peaked at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1991
YUP I WAS ONLY 15 YEARS OLD
@@talikamurray1388I was 15 too👍
I find it offensive that this song only has just under 10 Million views. Shame on you world!
This makes me realise how much I miss the 80's and 90's and hate life in 2020.
lmao, stop it !
I loved it then and I love it now, lol.
Church
Look at all the fun!
Your an old man then
Glad that classics like these are still being preserved.

RIP, David Cole. You died way too young.
C+C Music Factory innovated and invigorated a genre, and their music videos are flush with style and tact. Their music is 20 years old, but it will remain timeless.
Absolutely
Who's he their manager or the lead singer?? If it's the lead singer yer pertaining to "That figures y dina sikat ang banda na to!!! RIP😭😭😭😭😭
Unforgetable bass. One of the funniest pop songs ever.
Even us oldies were young once and not a mobile in sight..happy days
C+C Music Factory = Ritmo pegajoso + coreografía sincronizada + videos novedosos
Los "90 no le perdieron pisada a los '80 en cuanto a buenos estilos musicales con buenas producciones y a excelentes vídeos.
Las dos mejores décadas
30 years later and im still listening to this tune 🎶
Me either. Classics will never die !!!
@@ingobund730 Middlesex Break dance champ raver father rare human being this tune would put 200 people on a empty dance floor every time it was played .Some Tunes are Born to Be Great .
Maybe because there's lots of things today that make you go "hmmm..."
First time hearing it for me
@@adonaiyah2196 So that`s just a thing that makes me go hmmmmmmm !!!????
That is still one of the best bass lines I've ever heard.
It’s pretty average to me.
sounds like a ripoff of Charles Wright's "Express Yourself" just like NWA sampled
Mike Gordon, the bass player for Phish liked it so much he used it in the song "the way I feel". If you like this bassline, you'll love what Mike Gordon did with it.
@Cabo Wabo very different styles, express yourself has a lot more mo-town inspired bass line, this one is too quick to be mo-town, kinda fits the disco or jazz inspired funk you'd see in old Kung fu movies.
I could see this bass line being used in a Wu Tang sample.
Freedom Williams was a visionary. He talks about DVD's in 1991 when the DVD was not invented until 1995...
He said "BVDs". BVD is a brand of men's underwear, hence why you see a pair of briefs when he says that line.
@@CondomsRoseCondoms I see! Thanks for clearing this out. I searched for the lyrics first and it said ''dvd´s'' too, so I thought I heard it right.
30 years ago on my first morning of 6th grade; this song came on the radio as I was getting ready for school. It’s one of the most vivid memories of my life.
Today is my boys first day of 6th grade; so he is gonna listen to it.
Another Classic Example of the Fantastic 1990s Dance House Music - Pop Wise. So Much Fun. Music Was FUN.
ziggystardust48 fun and not vulgar for the most part
Good music
Yesss
Think it was in the 80's.....
@@jaibea1408 It was released in 1991
Love this album. Timeless. 1991.
+Aus80sRockRadio Blossom brought me here.
1990
Album peaked at #1 in 1991. The video you’re currently viewing peaked in Fall 1991
.
This was chosen MTV's best video clip of 1991, and I think that they were SO right! The video, the song, the voices, the arrangements. It's like the perfect song for dancing. But well, back in those days you could REALLY dance all night long, the music was so good and each song was very different from the other. Like the artists (which they were, artists) competed not for a higher position on a rank (or number of viewers...) but to see who made the best song. So sad that now everything is so similar and no one seems to really care.
I was 20 when this came out on the charts IAM 50 now Mate time has gone from the land down under 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
yeah m8
I was 19
I was 15, from south of Brasil
😃 For some odd reason this popped into my head the other day. GAWD this was and IS just great! 😎
you gotta love that hard driving bass. great music and excellent dancers with chorus. thnx for posting. TT
Kids these days loves 80s stuff. For me, the superior decade is the 90s. Superior and much cooler fashion, dance moves, and music. We made fun of the 80s back in those days
So prescient and relevant to NOW! Is anyone still watching? They have the gift of art and soul of true righteousness! BLACK LIVES - BLACK ARTIST MATTER!
Totally serious on this: This video completely stands the test of time. It's as fresh now as it was back then. It must be the excellent use of black and white. Bravo Cevilles and Cole and the fit one and the one from the Weather Girls.
So much fun and pop art! Wish this music and art style was brought back.
I don't half miss the 90s, a great decade for British music. If only I had access to a time machine, I'd go back to the summer of 1991 right now, when this entry from C & C, and many other fine tunes filled the charts ....
It seems like 80's new wave with the British migrated to 90's dance music. This combined with acid jazz and west coast hip hop we were spoiled
Wonder why they stopped making music. That group used to jam. My favorite will always be ~Sweat, let the music take control! ~ I tore up the dance floor on that jam lol! 😁 Love the sanging Martha Wash, and his voice was so cool too. 🙂
When videos were so creative and so was sound. And to have Mtv on satelite that was pretty awesome, I loved Mtv back then.
Ese video refleja toda la esencia de los años 90´s, me encanta el diseño
Groove is in the heart vibes
Yes, as well as Bust A Move, Young MC
FREEDOM WILLIAMS OF C&C FACTORY GIVES ME LOOK OF ICE T .RELATED
Early 90s CLUB music was the best and got even better can't beat the 90s for hitting the clubs and partying until the morning🤙🏻
Hits of the 80's & 90's will always be #1
All us 40+ feeling a touch of nostalgia. School discos and bad dancing lol
Каждая Пятница магически превращалась в 🔥🔥🔥
Some songs never get old
^ That is your opinion.
This is how big Arsenio Hall was back in the late 80s.. Arsenio made this quote huge because of the portion of his show ''things that make you go hmmm''..
***** Yeah.. that's what I said. Arsenio Hall made the quote huge, and then the song followed afterwards.
Ana Castellano he was massive and funny as hell
I kind of forgot about this song
Haha I remeber that !
Like I mentioned in the comments. They could have at least gave Arsenio a cameo appearance
Soooo good, this track, that video, just how dance music should be God bless the 90s and what a summer '91 was
Should there be a dating site or place for widows and widowers to spend time with others that are coping with their lost in peace then later with dancing good food and whatever else to luft their spirits..Every Community could use that❤

Thank God Daily for your Guardian 😇s
Classic❤
This has been my anthem!!!! I love C+C Music Factory!!!
Back when music was more worth it to listen to ... #classic
I always play this alongside "It Takes Two" by Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock
Music was music when they had to have somebody else sing the song?
You should see C&C’s version of It Takes Two (under the group nane Seduction)
Is pitty we have missed 70s, 80s&90s wonderful times ever. Can not return back.
Haven't heard this song in years but it randomly popped in my head just now. I think the last time I heard this song was when I was like 5 listening to my dad's CDs. I never saw the music video until now either which was cool to see!
This Era created Music, told stories, had people dancing and kept it Clean. Anyone agree?
Well.......I'm not sure that era can lay claim to the creation of music.....that honor has to go to the 60's 70's the first half of the 80s.....just saying.
That bass line.
This video is pretty visually creative. I forgot how slick this video was.
so 35 years later this can stil smack me right up on the dancefloor
I still remember every word to this song. Love it!!!
You'll never forget the lyrics of ur fav. songs !!!!!
So, before listening to the song again, how do the lyrics go: "____ ____, break it down"?
You memorized lyrics actually back then🤣
I forgot my own name once but I still remember the title of this song. So I guess that's my version of what you said! LOL XD
Things will still make you go hmmmm in 2020 🥰
NY announced today early release of jails. Virus found. Things that make you go...hmm??
Ikr.. 2020... What an eye opener 🤔💯😒
True. What's happening now in 2020.. is a BIG HMMMM....
Yeah like corona virus,,,,, hmmmm
CORONA?
This was when I was modeling in NYC GOOD SONG
Жалко, что под этим шедевральным клипом, нельзя поставить больше чем один лайк
25 years ago, dancing to this in college. I'm old.
The entirety of 2020 makes me go hmmmm
Put your mask in your nightstand and rewind to the 80s on... this site.
2021 as well.
That's a good one💯💯💯💯💯
Haha
DITTO! 😅👍🇺🇲
Love this jam! So infectious.
C+C Music Factory is proof that the 90s KICKED IT upside downside left and right! All over!

My dad sings this when he's drunk
Nothing compares to 80's and 90's music :)
You'd think the music industry would take note of that. But they don't. Why? That's something that makes me go, hmm? 🤔
I'm certain that record industry talent scouts do NOT spend any time searching UA-cam.
And 'Surviving Jack' got me here. Man, you gotta love UA-cam!
This song is a classic and never makes you forget about Buttermilk Biscuits.
I remember you...Big Brandy! I wish this stuff really matterd. You took my breath away. Should have listened to my mom!
"Primarily music is there to define reality, entertainers then have the job to do it best, hence a beautiful track keeping us aware just on it's specifics & loving it - THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO HMMM ;) !!!!"
I was a young man when this band hit - loved them then and love them now.
🤔Definitely the early 90’s🥹!!👌🏿’s
They don't make em like this anymore..... PC brigade would be all over it like a tramp on chips..... Absolutely brilliant music. Shall never never be repeated......

This song is such a great song to play on a BASS guitar... :)
Man, you know it. Great bass lick, just a great jamm.
I remember being a very young teenager or a preteen going to the public pool and playing this song over and over on the jukebox all day long I would literally just play this song for hours
I use to have this cassette and played the crap out of it C&C Music Factory was the shit in the early 90's
The goddess Zelma Davis and production for the ages 🏆🏆
Is there any way of bringing music like this back....?
Man, so many good memories...
Yeah, start making it. :)
Young mc and Dee lite bust a move and groove is in the heart.
Steve Kalis Yep
In that case , Steve, don't forget Bootsy, Q-tip, Vernon and Herbie, FWIW. It all came together with these.
" So many things that have already made me go.... hmmmmmm over the years since 1992 "
love this tune, she cant lip sync Hmm though..
Oh those sweet old days when music scene was dominated by people who had talent... we miss ya...
There's plenty of awesome songs these days, like the one that goes "my hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely lady bumps". Such talent.....
/s
Who is listening....dancing..during quarantine?!?♡♡
of course
Oh the memories c&c brings back
Wow, time flies by so fast!! I was 22 yrs old and fondly remember this song!!!
