    The Stylistics had many hits and though they had a very 70s sound, their sound is also iconic. I so love this band.

    God bless my graduation class of 1974, hard to believe it's been nearly 45 years looking back, riding around in my 67 impala, the world around us have changed,but memories of the music we had at that time was just off the chain, my grandkids love it

    So glad that I grew up in this era. There is absolutely no other music like this . The 1970's had the most wonderful words to every song that were ever written!!! From the Bee Gees to the Stylistics and to so many, many more. Great memories!!!

    I'm old school , triple OG .West Philly born & raised in 1946 .Sang R&B for over sixty years . Still do when the spirit moves me .Sang with people that knew Ms .Creed .Sad situation but the songs she wrote for the Spinners and many others live on .l Sang a lot of the songs by groups that became known as the Philly sound .O' Jay's ,Delphonics ,Intruders ,Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes ,the Tymes , and many others and of course the Stylistics .ln my humble opinion " Brand New " is one of the prettiest songs ever released and sung by one of the most dynamic voices in music and a Philly legend . Don't blast me but my favorite group of all time is and always will be the original Temptations .R . I . P . Props to Dennis Edwards ,not easy to take over for David ,who ,at that time was still a living legend in his own right . From the Fifties right up to today, September 9,2018 all the songs and the groups that l was blessed to have seen & heard will live on in my heart until the Good Lord calls me home .

    My mother had all that group albums that song was one of her favorite ones, she had always said that song came out in 1973, it pops up on to the shelves in the shops and then just then, you pop up in the maternity ward in the hospital. She always has made me laugh with that saying, it's hard to believe that song is 48yrs old.

So I said "... hmmm ..." and I had to hit up iTunes and had to download this song along with 'You are Everything'. Big AM pop hits from my youth in the '70s. Great songs.

    Man does not live by bread alone. Not only marketing, plus, benefit and customer orientation feeds the soul that is in us. And not only by the techniques, by the methodologies, by the comparisons between the various professional experiences, one can influence - thankfully - our style of communication, and therefore also our lifestyle. A thought, then, goes to friendship, a genre so atypical, so little gender, so special expression of the soul ..! Beautiful song.!

    On this day in 1974 {April 13th) the Stylistics performed "You Make Me Feel Brand New" on Saturday-afternoon national syndicated television program, 'Soul Train'...
    At the time "You Make Me Feel Brand New" was at position #36 on Billboard's Top 100 chart, nine weeks later it would peak at #2* {for 2 weeks} and it spent almost a half-year on the Top 100 {25 weeks}...
    It also reached #2 in England and #5 on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles chart...
    Between 1971 and 1976 the Philadelphia soul quintet had seventeen records on the Top 100 chart, with five making the Top 10...
    Besides the above "You Make Me Feel Brand New", their four other Top 10 records were "You Are Everything" {#9 in 1971}, "Betcha By Golly, Wow" {#3 in 1972}, "I'm Stoned In Love With You" {#10 in 1972}, and "Break Up To Make Up" {#5 in 1973}...
    Sadly; the co-composer of "You Make Me Feel Brand New", Linda Creed, passed away on April 10th, 1986 at the age of 37 from breast cancer...
    May both she and Don Cornelius {1936 - 2012} R.I.P.
    * The two weeks "You Make Feel Brand New" was at #2 on the Top 100, the #1 record for both those weeks was "Billy, Don't Be A Hero" by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods...

      @@katrinahouston1604 In our day and time it is one and the same. There has been so much intermarriage over the past that being Jewish is mostly not reflected in features and skin color anymore. The Jews of old had darker complections, they were not white.

    The first concert I ever went to was to see the Stylistics (mid-70's). Me and my friends had front row seats (which were level to the stage). Russell leaned over, looked me in the eyes, while singing one of the versus of this song. I almost had a coronary! That's one experience I will NEVER forget.

      ***** How sad that you had to wait 28 years to hear your mother tell you she loved you, only to lose her two years later. Children should know they are loved as soon as they can communicate and understand communication. At least you heard it in her lifetime, and you now have a memory to carry you with you.
