My Favorite House Song Ever! Chicago Stand Up! Yes this is pure HOUSE but I guess it's a little too late to let the label know they should really take out the word "Trance!" This would be the clearest version you'll find online unless from original vinyl or cd...I've listened to the versions on Amazon, iTunes and Traxsource.com and they don't compare plus the song fades out early whereas my version is more complete... btw this was lifted from my personal cassette tape...thank you Asmed Palomo RIP!
House music is said to have originated from a Chicago club called The Warehouse, which existed from 1977 to 1983. Clubbers to The Warehouse were primarily black, who came to dance to music played by the club's resident DJ Frankie Knuckles, whom fans refer to as the "godfather of house". Frankie began the house trend by splicing together different records when he found that the records he had weren't enough to satisfy his audience. He would use tape and a knife to accomplish this. After the Warehouse closed in 1983, the crowds went to Knuckles' new club, The Power Plant. In the Channel 4 documentary Pump Up The Volume, Knuckles remarks that the first time he heard the term "house music" was upon seeing "we play house music" on a sign in the window of a bar on Chicago's South Side. One of the people in the car with him joked, "you know, that's the kind of music you play down at the Warehouse!", and then everybody laughed. South-Side Chicago DJ Leonard "Remix" Roy, in self-published statements, claims he put such a sign in a tavern window because it was where he played music that one might find in one's home; in his case, it referred to his mother's soul & disco records, which he worked into his sets.[55] Farley Jackmaster Funk was quoted as saying "In 1982, I was DJing at a club called The Playground and there was this kid named Leonard 'Remix' Roy who was a DJ at a rival club called The Rink. He came over to my club one night, and into the DJ booth and said to me, 'I've got the gimmick that's gonna take all the people out of your club and into mine - it's called House music.' Now, where he got that name from or what made him think of it I don't know, so the answer lies with him."
Chip E.'s 1985 recording "It's House" may also have helped to define this new form of electronic music. However, Chip E. himself lends credence to the Knuckles association, claiming the name came from methods of labeling records at the Importes Etc. record store, where he worked in the early 1980s: bins of music that DJ Knuckles played at the Warehouse nightclub were labelled in the store "As Heard At The Warehouse", which was shortened to simply "House". Patrons later asked for new music for the bins, which Chip E. implies was a demand the shop tried to meet by stocking newer local club hits.
In a 1986 interview, Rocky Jones, the former club DJ who ran the D.J. International record label, doesn't mention Importes Etc., Frankie Knuckles, or the Warehouse by name, but agrees that "house" was a regional catch-all term for dance music, and that it was once synonymous with older disco music.
Larry Heard, a.k.a. "Mr. Fingers", claims that the term "house" became popular due to many of the early DJs creating music in their own homes using synthesizers and drum machines such as the Roland TR-808, TR-909, and the TB 303. These synthesizers were used to create a house subgenre called acid house.
Juan Atkins, an originator of Detroit techno music, claims the term "house" reflected the exclusive association of particular tracks with particular clubs and DJs; those records helped differentiate the clubs and DJs, and thus were considered to be their "house" records. In an effort to maintain such exclusives, the DJs were inspired to create their own "house" records.
This song is making me happy in 2024 ... the voice is amazing ❤

Don’t hope, make it happen with calculated planned steps.
❤
I heard this classic on hot 97 in NY. In the years 1992 and 1993. Listening to music like this is a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day.
98.7 kiss. This was before Hot 97. Tony Humphrey. Rubin” Latin Bull “ Turro.
@@terencetaylor9319 I will not debate this. You heard it when you heard it. I heard it when I heard it.
Wasn’t trying to debate. 97 was not around in 92-93. That’s all.
@@terencetaylor9319 Yes it was! I listened to British Dj Dave Kendall, on Sunday's on hot 97 in 1992 to 1993! Hot 97 has been around for a while. Format has changed thru the years. You don't know what you are talking about! Wikipedia says different.
@@carlosnievas1220 Wikipedia? I base on what I lived. Not looked up. But you got it…
chimbA 🇨🇴 d tema desde Colombia
2024😂R
this song has saved my life for years
Got introduced to house music at Dayton Job Corps in the 80's from the people from Chicago, I'm from Detroit and I'm still listening to house in 2023.
2024 Still Here Doin It! 😎
👊🏽
This song never gets old
House music just puts you in another zone,that you want to be in forever.being from jersey i love house music .❤ 🎉
when you live in a totalitarian country in a totalitarian time, you really want to at least mentally return to the era of freedom. house and trance music of the early nineties is a symbol of freedom and renewal. from the first notes of this track it literally blows with freshness. dawn, you come back from the party, you go to bed, the bass is still inside you (something else inside you too ahahah) and you know that everything will be fine.
there is no other value than freedom
A house classic straight from southside Chicago
she is in that cut. all in that rhythm
you kids missed this era of love and house ... come visit us soon in an elderly home where we will house you !
House heads #unite 🔥🔥🔥
Reminds me of my younger days, riding through the nighttime streets of downtown Baltimore. Ah, good times.
Same here!!! ❤
The Great City of Baltimore !! Over the Top 😎
It's 2020 May 15. My Wife (who is from Baltimore) introduced me to this song in 2015. I've been hooked to it ever since. *Be Safe Out There Everyone Brighter Days Are Coming*
This right here is 30 years and counting
Check out Stand Up by Love Tribe, and Most Versions of Are you Sleeping by Indo, the Chicago mix, I think it is like 5:12 or 6...but well over 4 minutes.
For reason, I want to go clubbn in Baltimore...because of this music.

A house classic. House music is soul music for the soul. You can never tried of listening to this. This is a all-time favorite. :)

It's 3:28am and I'm losing my mind. In Baltimore back in the day, this was the joint back in the club. I love every house mix of Brighter Days, but this was the version that once you were good and buzzed could have you on the dancefloor in a "trance" indeed. Love this song!

I'm 26 years old. first time I heard this song was 2003 in the 8th grade and every once in a while I always try to find this song. I googled 90s singer brighter days and it came up, i see it has a couple versions but this was the one that stuck with me. I love this song lol
Calvin Browder you are welcome in the house community!!
This track is food for the soul
I was 25 years old when I first heard this version of Brighter Days at a Club called "HEAVEN" @ 7 MILE & WOODWARD in Detroit Michigan. Under the tutelege of DJ Ken Collier..... The sound of (6) Bass Maxx Servo SUbs on the 2nd floor of a wooden structure in the wee hours of the night.... I have spent the remainder of my life searching for that low frequency euphoric sound and hearing DAJae scream " I NEED A PLACE TO RUN AND HIDE , RELAX MY MIND".
😂
Paradox in the 90s Baltimore md and we all had peace and love! No fights in one small space
Becky I miss the paradox and hammerjacks
Was that a spot downtown by an underpass?🤔 My brother lived out in Randallstown in 88 and when I came to town.He and his homies showed me their spots in Bmore and one out in Columbia. A few of them shits were sweat boxes though. Lol

I saw Deja perform this version LIVE at the Paradox in Baltimore. I also saw her perform Live in New Jersey! That background Keyboard! Amazing times dancing until exhaustion at the Paradox💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾! We literally danced "Til the New Day Dawned!" ☀️House Music Forever!🥂
I just saw her at the 20th Chosen Few Picnic and Reunion in Chicago on 7/3/2022. She snapped! I flew up from Atlanta, but it's a 12-hour event at Jackson Park dedicated only to house music. I strongly suggest you come in 2023!

Absolutely amazing deep house tune this is! Absolutely love this tune with a passion!
This is why I stopped listening to most music of today and started exploring this music.
Just got reminded of this masterpiece on Mi-House Radio.....and it is such a MASTERPIECE. It does exactly what is says on the tin. Dajae is one of my favourite vocalists ever :)

This is the best version that I have heard
The house cut of the century.
This one gets tons of play in Detroit…classic!!
Friday, June 16, 2023 here❤ Song is still strong, inspiring and beautiful. Yes!!👏🙌❤️
A classic straight from southside Chicago and when it dropped it was instantly adopted by Baltimore househeads and this led me to thinking Chitown and Bmore are known for high level violence and just maybe us inhabitants of these cities were just looking hoping praying for a brighter day.
absolute classic !
This is the version that I have been searching for since I bought it on vinyl. An amateur dj, i loved mixing this one. Yesss. Detroit yes.
Where's the one we dance to at the Post
Yes!
St. Andrews Hall downtown Detroit. 3 Floors of Fun. The basement was hard rock n roll. The main floor was hip hop then the 3rd floor was deep house music and I would loose my mind on the 3rd floor! 🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊
I'm 60 and this still sounds GREAT HOUSE MUSIC FOREVER!!!!!!!
Yessss! Such memories...this always gets me into a good head space.
House Music 4ever.....
Jesus is coming put on the white robe of Salvation
