If i can only go back and do it all over again and experience life in 80s and 90s all over again. Can't believe the best times were before cell phones. Now we are all slaves to it. It sucks! But the ones who are awake are the ones listening to these timeless music. #oldschoolis4ever #wakeuppeople
@@coldhardtruth233 there was still a lot of trash in the 1980s and radio was rigged back then but there was still a huge diverse amount of music back then. music died in the 1990s and was too simple sounding prior to the 1960s. the 1960s to 1980s had the best music. everything before and after those decades is wasted time and effort.

A particular song it was during Desert Storm, Saudi Arabian Desert. I was unpacking and turn on the radio, D.J. Casey Kasem Top 40, Surface "Happy" was playing on the radio. For a moment, I was overjoyed and couldn't believe it was playing in the desert. I thought about friends and how they were celebrating the success of the band. I couldn't wait to get home and celebrate with my friends.
Youngsters generation in the 80/90s period listen to this timeless classic but however their kids in this era listen to the song that samples this track! It's titled "Sexy" by the collaborative efforts of Lil Duval and Boosie Badazz!
East London night clubs for me. Rolling with the crew. Trying our luck with the girls and getting blanked, then grooving to the music on the dance floor, forgetting the girls and everything else, just grooving to this, Bernard Wright, Loose Endz and others
Gowing up with Brian Jackson and Bernard Jackson, I knew them both very well. I came to the house, and Bernard played his guitar on the floor. He could sing the Jackson 5 songs, and everyone in the neighborhood knew he was talented. I last spoke with Bernard in Stamford, Charley Bowlers Bar. We talked about Surface, " Happy," and that it would be a big hit. The name "Surface didn't ring a bell with me until I watched BET. I was watching the video "Happy" for the first time. The video was excellent, and I couldn't stop talking about it.
Close The single was released in April 1987 I remember the first time I heard it on the radio station and I said to myself that this song makes me happy.
This reminds me of my dad, when I was a little girl he used to pick me up in what I called his big truck and we'd ride around town jamming to this. I miss my dad.
This song was played on WGCI in Chicago in the summer of '87 when I met my future husband. Those feelings of connection are still as strong today as they were then when I hear this song. We are going almost 29 years strong.
such a smooth a romantic song, I was 28yrs old when this song was released, and told my soon to be wife only she could make me happy and now im 63 and she still makes me happy
It's not gonna happen. This music was born out of a certain time period, where specific influences and inspirations played a part in it's creation. In 2018, the current climate of art is not conducive to this type of wonderful music.
yes, this is true, the current climate does exist that prohibits this wonderful music to be continuous but it didn't happen by coincidence but done so deliberately......this level of music and the content that we enjoyed should have never changed but forces took it and began to degrade it......There's a book written about the entire experience and provides step by step analysis how this deterioration took place and destroyed not only our music by music's brightest star........
This is A Beautiful Love Song. No Autotune. Love how he expresses his Love to A Woman. Some of today's music is missing that how they talk to woman now a days is horrible. I Love this song. A Classic

Berlin Brigade, Germany 1985 - 1988. Andrews and McNair Kaserne's, Labelle's, Checkpoint Club, Starlight, The Chic, Silver Wings. "If you know, you know." This song would flood the dancefloors. RIP to my brothers and fellow soldiers Sgt Ford and SSG Goins; and Nermin from the 1986 Labelle's Disco bombing. CSC Scouts - 4/502 Infantry. We were all together that fatal night club hopping as usual. My Guardian Angels were with me that night. This song was one of SGT Ford's favorites, Nermin and mines. That brother and Nermin would dance their butts off all night to this song. "Miss you big brother." Nermin had the sweetest smile and could dress her butt off. So many good memories and one I wish never happened. This song brings back so many good memories from so many good times in Germany.
The good old days. Makes me cry. I wish the world would go back when it was peaceful music and people was civilized. The song makes me think of parents driving me to song. Listen to this song. 80 and 90's you will always be miss.
2024 anyone?😊

They don't make great music like this anymore. The telephone conversation part of this song always made me smile
the telephone part of this song was done by some r&b acts in the early 1970s so it was not a new idea in 1987.
Actually they do, you probably in the wrong spaces, the type of talent these days is out of this world
Back when music was filled with love & romance.
For real
Word. Today's music is about nothing.
Exactly ❤
Right 😊
I was born in 1984 and discovering this gem makes love the 80s much more! Good times!

That's because they're not women anymore
@@keepinitreal164 Wrong. It's because they don't respect women. The industry and the consumer loves drugs and disrespect.
