This is actually a jazz-funk cut. These gents were way ahead of their time. I've always been and will always be a true and dedicated fan of the OHIO PLAYERS. Real music from real musicians. Diamond was one the funkiest drummers to play a set of drums!!!!!
A memory of days past when she was in my life, she turned me onto this group and they have been with me eva since... She had honey colored hair, green eyes, a smile that lit a room, a body that I could enjoy at any time.. a love that was & is memorable to this day. This song depicts my time with her which started in 74'. The Ohio Players songs covered every aspect of that time. a great post though it is from the hits album the long version is still the best. Peace & Thank U.
You knew just what you were getting right off the top with the Ohio Players. Could'nt wait to see the next album. Finally got with a girl that looked like the cover......... yea it was all good!!!!!!!!!
by the way, thank you for posting this song, its bring so memories, reminds me and my X who no longer at our presents. God Bless U, You will never be forgotten.
Yes, brother! I was "there" with you in their heyday and totally agree about them being ahead of the curve. This jazzy track is one of my all-time favorites, PERIOD. And in my schooldays I always thought Diamond was cute. Not because he's light-skinned. Because he's light-skinned AND could play the hell outta that kit (lol)! He laid down some of the freshest drum patterns and fills ever caught on tape.
2:18 with that horn and 2:38 with them singing sweeeeettt and la da da dahhhh and the music in the background just always have done something to me!!! Yes lawdy
You mean there was actual music on those records?? I just bought Ohio Players for their album covers!! This stuff is kinda new to me. Psyche!! I listened to every song on every album.
saw the ohio player in las vegas i left the show with a sound in my ears i will never for get they jammed that night i hope they will do a reat show soon i wanna see them again
it's the kind of marshmallow you could put in your pocket, or even drop on the floor by accident and it would still be good. this one you want to savor taking little bites periodically
Great song, great chord changes (unlike today's bullshit chords), great horns, great funk! I loved this song along with most of the music from the 70's. And THOSE ALBUM COVERS.....WOW!!!
I remember this when I was I young... I wish people would consider the greats when they are rapping.. I like hip hop, but I don't want my kids listening to it due to the cursing.................
this song is the shit,, this is one of my favorite song in high school, I think that i ate the whole jar of honey, lol This song is for matures audience

One of the greatest hits of all time, Ohio Players icons for life if you know what real music is!!
True THAT. IF YA KNOW YA KNOW❤
One of the premier funk bands! Man I miss the old days!
The sax player is too damn good!!! I love it!!❤

Closing my eyes and listening to this really takes me back to a wonderful time in my life that was spent with a good friend. RIP Jeffrey.
Love how it starts so quiet then builds up and explodes!🎉

Welcome to the world of funk with the Ohio Players. Ive been with them since the 70s and its still fresh!
sounds so good... brings back memories
One of the most beautiful songs, ever!
Another Ohio Players classic. Man, these brothers were so talented and deep. RIP, Sugarfoot....
That horn section,
Even though I'm kinda crazy, I could never ever forget this beautiful gem!!!
the sound track to my high school career early 70's Detroit
I love Billy Beck's keys & synth tracks, Diamond's drums, the horns & Satch on the sax oh yes the background vocals real tight!
That 🎷solo always gets to me 😉❤
I'd like to get in a time machine and go back to some of those concerts.
To the "drummer" give him some! to the Ohio Players, such a unique, with a style so classic, and finally....to "Sugarfoot" rest in peace.
You knew just what you were getting right off the top with the Ohio Players. Could'nt wait to see the next album. Finally got with a girl that looked like the cover......... yea it was all good!!!!!!!!!

Thankyou for the heads up on the playlist of the album! Funk runs thru the blood.. and stays forever!
