The group already had some success in the UK and in the US, however, their hit song 'Hangin on a String (Contemplating) resulted in the group gaining international success. However, the group later split, some years after. This video chronicles how the group came about, their early career, their international success and what really caused the group to split up.

Criminally underrated group. Definitely deserve their flowers ⚘🌺🌻.
Yes they do deserve their flowers.I luv Loose Ends..
ABSOLUTELY
Absolutely!!
I have all their albums. Love their music!🤎🤎🤎
Carl was the genius of the group from what I can tell and the music he followed up with, he had the golden touch and should have been a household name. Shame the other two couldnt have settled their differences as they had one of the best R&B bands in the world which was up there with the best American artists. The music industry really didnt have a clue about what they had and didnt give this group the praise they deserved.
One of the greatest groups of all time! Slow down, Hanging on a String, Stay a little while child, You can't stop the Rain, Don't be a Fool, Nights of Pleasure, Who are You, and Sweetest pain are my top favorites and they'll never get old
Come on now...don't forget about...Gonna make you mine...Hold tight...Mr bachelor...Choose me or lose me...
@@odishamilton2711 and watching you
Such a great group! I still listen to their music today. My favs are Hangin On A String and You Can’t Stop The Rain.
True, true, true. Legendary.
Fantastic Group. Totally underrated!!
This group was waaaay ahead of everyone else when they came out. No other group in the world sounded like them.
Sos band. Don't do that.
you darn right
😂
They sound like a bunch of American bands but ok.
EARTH WIND & FIRE

We definitely love and respect Loose Ends over here in the US. One of the best R&B groups ever!!
I agree
EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed
I really don't understand why the mainstream media don't give Loose Ends their flowers. Loose Ends was 🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯
Hanging on a String has aged well and is great to listen to almost 4 decades later!
Awlreddy baabey!!! Whewww!!!
They got a bunch of songs that aged well. Even all the young folks all over You can't stop the Rain now because of BMF show.
she dint talk about it, maybe she never heard it
The go to track at the barbecue
Still one of my favorite songs/tracks. I’ve thrown it in towards the end of countless sets over the years - needless to say I’ve listened to it solo on the full album & 12” 100s of times 🖤🖤
White guy in his 50s and I absolutely adored Loose Ends in the 80s and still do even now in 2021. Their sound is just so smooth, funky and so quintessentially 80s. Always gives me a warm, familiar feeling when I put on one of their albums, owning them all from A Little Spice right up to Look How Long.
2022🎉
Lots of 'white guys' liked soul music, reggae and dub where/when i grew up in the east end of London and later Essex et al, nothing unusual at all about that bruv!!!
The great thing about GREAT MUSIC is it transcends race & class, like we all need water, or like great food! I am a Black guy. I, and most of my black friends are also huge RUSH, LED ZEPPELIN, U2, TOM PETTY, AEROSMITH, HALL & OATS, STING/POLICE, GARY NUMAN, SPYRO GYRA, THE WHO, THE STONES, FLEETWOOD MAC, and DAVE MATHEWS BAND fans, among many others. We just love great music!!!
Me too , I loved their music
2023
Loose Ends is one of my absolute favorite groups. Growing up Black in the U.S. in the 80s you always heard Loose Ends - all of their albums. To this day Loose Ends remains a staple on R&B/Soul radio in the U.S. Legendary group. This is a great video. Salute to you. I'm glad the group can still get together and do live concerts. I'd also love to see if they could reunite and work with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis as they are all seasoned people now.
Same here , I loved their music but I had no idea that they were from the UK, wow
@@therealistboxingchannel can’t hide that soul no matter where we are lol
@@thebigswermdiggs3383 💯
💯 agree!!!! Love them!
Me too!!! Hanging on a String is still jamming!! Yes the 80’s were the best and boy was I shocked when I heard them talk😳.
That whole UK soul movement was amazing. Loose Ends was a huge favorite of mine (even up to their 90s album, arguably their best, "Look How Long"). But it continued with Soul II Soul and even Caron Wheeler's solo work. They all had such an incredible, soulful sound.
Yehman! Me miss dem days so much
Word up! Soul II Soul🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌉🌉🌉🌉🌉💯💯💯💯💯😎😼
Don't forget 5 star
Loose Ends And Soul 2 Soul Were Two Of The Greatest R&B Groups To Ever Come Out Of The UK!
They Fit Right In With Their Brothers And Sister's In America Playing Funk And R&B!
Excellent Presentation! Loose Ends Will Always Be One Of My Favorite All Time Group! Love, Peace And Blessings To Them Always! ✌️
Damn I didn't even know they were from the UK. amazing
Facts
Don't forget 52nd Streer. And Princess, " Number 1", although considered one hit wonder allegedly
Loose ends is iconic, their children should be proud to have such musical legends as their parents.
I grew up on their music! Ill be 45 this month, like me..... Their musuc is timeless!! 1 LOVE.
Happy early Birthday!! 💙
Thank you!!
Yes!
@Black American Expat Radio right I'm the same age and they was one of my favorite groups as well growing up high five to that.
It sure is
THIS GROUP RIGHT HERE? They were EVERYTHING in my tape deck!!!!!
Exactly❣
They sang such top-quality soul music and I can't believe that they only had one number one on the charts.
Outstanding job. Loose Ends was huge in the US. Hanging on a String was a monster. Loose Ends helped me get through college.
I liked Watching You, and Mr Bachelor and of course Hanging On a String; Slow Down 😅😅
I really liked Loose Ends. When I first heard "Hanging on Strings" I was like wow ! 😀💜
Me too. That song is still my jam.
Yup!
love their music sounds even better now.
Top 100 all time. Great song
It reminds me of being in Summer camp going to Coney Island,Brooklyn.
Back in the day, EVERYONE LOVED LOOSE ENDS music and their international persona.
They were a smooth trio and NOBODY DISSED them.
Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis would disagree. They has some serious beef much so they refused to work with them and worked with human league instead.
@godsson7787 Yo Godsson, okay! Clearly, you have intelligence. The rest of us don't concerning the Loose Ends group's persona and interactions with other artists.
@@godsson7787 he felt like their sound from s.o.s was taken that's why.
@@traceyscott5957 I heard them speak on it before in an interview.
I'm glad to know the picture of the sand dune on the record wasn't photoshopped but it was actually real.
Slow down and Hanging on String are both still jams! This was truly a awesome underrated group.
You can't stop the rain
@@Memphi5Made901 yessssss that song transports me to another time.
Yes they are both feel good song they get you amped until this day.
They should have more hits.
The quality never changed.
All the songs had a great sound.
Damn 6 isn't enough for you?
"Tell me what you want" 1984 gem 👍
It's hard to believe this group didn't achieve higher status in the music industry because they are one of the best ever. They are one of only a few groups that never, never, ever produced a bad song. All of their songs on every album are very pleasing to ecstatically full-on jamming. This is one great group. Admittedly, I'm a bit biased because they're one of MY all-time favorites.
Loose Ends took hold in America like Soul 2 Soul did. Good music is good music
Oh I thought it was the Beatles at least according to the BBC.
@@cosmicdiasporapoems2916
I don't understand your reply?
You thought what was the Beatles?
@@BTman58 60s UK pop band the UK media tell us was the best, band even though they used Anmerican R nB beats. Very good song writers I give them that.
@@cosmicdiasporapoems2916
I know who the Beatles are but I don't understand what the Beatles have to do with my post.
NK True: True: but gradually, as they made chartless singles before.
I can spin their singles now (2021) and still get ppl on the floor. Love this group.
2023🎉❤
I grew up on Loose Ends! My favorite songs are " Slow Down" and "You Can Stop The Rain".
Love Controversy fire to.
Slow Down was the 💩
I love Loose Ends, they were certainly underrated in the 80's. The made good soulful music. Iconic legends for real!
Back in the '80s, my sister and I would clean the house listening to loose ends. Great memories, true Legends.
Omg so glad the algorithm showed me this video..I love love loose ends..hanging on a string is one of my fave songs ever..
Slow down, nights of pleasure ..I am so glad u did this video..u did a great job ❤️
@@missgigip Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed the video ❤
To this day, I'm still a huge fan of Loose Ends. Playing their albums take me right back to such memorable moments and good times. TIMELESS. Thanks so much for this post!
Loose Ends was the best Soul Group from England period! We loved them and looked forward to their songs and videos. Never say never. The Fugees are now performing.
@Shirl Epps Exactly!! If The Fugees can reunite and perform after so many years, there may be hope!
I didn't even know they were from England.
@@tooakki
And the sad part was they were more successful here in the US!!
@@shirlepps4636 Wow ok
I think Soul 2 Soul ran neck and neck with Loose Ends. Both represented true black soul from the UK
I was a die hard Loose Ends fan back in the 80’s. Wore their cassette tapes out lol. Brings back so many memories. Still listening in 2023!
I'm in the USA & it's the end of 2024 & I'm still rockin Loose Ends in my vehicle & FOREVER WILL THERE AFTER... Awesome group, Awesome music... I thank you Loose Ends... 🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🖐️👌💯✌️
Loose Ends is so underrated! My mother loved this band and I just recently started playing them again! Gawd they are so awesome!
YES!!!!, An 80's flashback, Thank you for having this most popular yet underrated group. R&B flavor at its best!.
@Robert Jackson No worries at all! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I agree, they are an underrated group!
Right… I hope they do an unsung on them
💯💯💯
My favorite band. Highly underrated especially The Real Chuckeeboo album.
Easier said than done track 6
Especially, Watching you!!!! They never play it!
@@sashaclarke2749 they use to play it on B.E.T on Video Soul back in the days
DEFINITELY 💯.
Loose Ends are one of my favourite soul groups ever. And the fact they are from my ends, just makes it even sweeter. I love Jane's voice, but dont sleep on Carl, his voice is amazing.I'm still playing their albums today on vinyl, CD and streaming.
Loose ends is probably the greatest,most underrated groups in the history of music. They were a conglomeration of Earth, Wind, and Fire, War, Mandrill,Maze, Sly and the Family Stone, and Midnight Star. Slow Down is the all time national Anthem of Funk!!! It will remain that way forever!!!
lol🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
THIS Was MY GROUP!!! My Favorite was Slow Down, and Stay a Little While Child. I remember seeing them perform @ The Silver Shadow Night Club in New York. They were 🔥🔥🔥. I would love to see them perform again!! DAMN, They had a chance to work with JAM and LEWIS and a Song but Due to Friction SMH. They did have quite a few Bangers, and I Loved Don't be a Fool also.
Same here I just listened to don't be a fool.
The Izzue'z W/Jim/Jam/T-Lewis & L-Ends Had 2 Do W/This Use of Drum Machine ROLAND 808 & The Design of Beats. While @ That Time Jam & Lewis Had a Certain Sound they WERE KNOW for Ex. SOS BAND, Those Specif Sound & Beat Were Created on The Roland Drum Machine. Jam/Lewis DIDN'T Like Wat L-Ends Was Doing With Its Use of Da Drum Machine. They felt L-Ends Was Copying Frm. Them & Creating Similar Sounds & Beats as theirs. When in fact, LEnds, WASN'T Copying & Stealing Jams Beats & Similar Sounds. That Drum Machine Has Specific Sound & Allows For Alot of Creativity, Like Laying Base Lines, Drum Lines & Going Back Over & Laying Other Percussions Ex. HANGING on a String.The Drum Machine is Amazing If You Go Back & Listen. Jam/Lewis Felt L-Ends Was Stepping on their Toes So 2 Speek. So Refused 2 Werk W/ L-Ends, Infact, @ That Time,Jam/Lewis Wrote,Produced a Hit Song & Gave it To The Human League (I'm Only Human), & Had Harsh Werds 4 The British Group. Just a Little Tid Bit of Musical History.
The.
@@musiclover-cn7tb I listened too but I'm still alive and still a fool. Life goes on.
Not the Silver Shadow @Charlene! 💃🏾 🕺
I can still hear the commercial on BLS
Kudos to the person who did the research and produced this video. I still to this day enjoy the music of this R&B group. Songs like Hanging on a string, Slow Down, You can't stop the rain, and Stay a little while child are classics. Loose Ends were definitely among the best in the music business during R&B explosion of the 1980s.
They were totally off the hook!
Love them!😍
Hands down the main influence of the whole Neo-Soul movement. Loose Ends... There's not one group that can touch them.
Period.
The Heavies are good also but Loose Ends awesome 👍
Soul II Soul came after though……
Well they are superb but I think Soul 2 Soul, Level 42, Five Star, Shakatak, Incognito, Total Contrast, Average White Band, Imagination, Lynx, Cool Notes, Freeez, 52nd Street are in the same league for funk/Jazzy and R&B genres. Probably forgetting a lot of bands but thats off the top of my head. Basically all these bands are criminally underrated and never got the respect they deserved and way better than the music out there now.
@@maccagrabme Loose Ends walked so Soul II Soul could run.
back in the day I absolutely loved this trio, their sound was iconic
I remember hearing them on the radio all the time as a kid here in the states. They had a very unique sound that drew me in immediately. Even now when I hear them I jam out, singing all the words and sound effects to Hanging On A String and Slow Down... lol. And I loved You Can’t Stop The Rain and Watching You as well. 💜💜
Loose Ends was huge here in the states for decades and we still enjoy hits like hanging on a string and slow down. Personally one of my favorite groups from either side of the Atlantic!!!
One time in the late 80s, I was sitting in my car downtown, getting ready to go into one of the clubs. I was playing Hanging on a String on my cassette. A friend walked by and knocked on my window. I rolled the window down. The first thing he said was you always have the best music. A Loose Ends moment.
The ZAGORA album is one of the greatest albums of ALL TIME, from beginning to end!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽No skips!!!!
Look how long was my Album!!!
But I just had to listen, my apologies that is one of the greatest Albums unusual to have o many greats songs on one album!!!
note one skip💯
Agree Shan5445, Look How Long was/is my fave album of theirs. That’s my ISH! Just played it in the car last week. I love Zagora and The Real Chuckeeboo too though.
💯.....I have all of their studio vinyl 😊
BMF has me Curious in 2021…
I love the fact that they NEVER gave up despite low bill board placement with many of their songs. Now all of their hard work is paying off. “You can’t stop the rain when it starts to fall” May their blessings continue to rain on them.
I was a kid in the 80s when I first heard Loose Ends. ‘Hanging On A String’ was heard a everywhere where I lived.
Loose Ends are always on my playlist till this day...
Their music is so dope❤
Love this group
I have always maintained that their non singles or b-sides were some of Loose Ends' finest work.
This is my group. Love the songs hanging on a string, slow down and stay a little while child. The industry is dirty.
@simonstuart2003 Honestly those songs have to be part of the top 5 best Loose Ends songs! I totally agree, the industry is dirty 💯
How did u can’t stop the rain chart higher, there greatest hit
As a child I loved Jane. Watching her presence and style on tv (BET) her voice is so distinctive it made my day! I just couldn't get enough of Loose Ends, still playing their music to this day!
I fell in love with this group in 1985, when 15. Their sound, vibe and content was awesome. Still in heavy rotation in my home and car. I wished they could have worked things out back around 1990. However, they were and still one of the top R&B Acts from the 80's. Loved Them!
My favourite band from the UK ever. Shout out to my West Indians who shaped black british culture... Long live the Windrush...
It's a travesty they got little love from the UK compared to US.
We love them in the states ...rocking them at the bbq and parties
I did not know they are from the UK their songs still play on the radio here in the US great soul music
i swear i hear their tunes at every wedding party, hanging on a string is everywhere lol
I was today old when I found out. Lol.
When they were on Soul Train Don Cornelius would tease them about their accents
I love UK women's accents it's some very pretty women their
Same you learn something new every day. I thought all jarreau was a brazalian.
Their music still sounds great after 40 years. It'll will never age. Slow down, hanging on strings are my jams 🎶
Im 55... thats my top 5 groups of all time ! Period ! The legendary loose ends !
Their hits are Legendary in the U.S. and I speak as an American 🔥 🔥. Underneath Sade they're the best soul band from England. Haunting, powerful, iconic, legendary classic songs. Salute
"Loose Ends" are Legends! 🙏🏿 They changed the sound of music in the 80's & from them came "Soul II Soul" Legends in their on right 🙏🏿
Firstly, thank you for creating this episode / video on Loose Ends! They are in my Top 5 favorite groups ever! I remember when their sound began to change / evolve in 1990. I was so hurt. I definitely agree with Jane Eugene that their producer Nick Martinelli was the secret sauce in their sound. It was their magic combination. However, I am a huge fan of Steve Nichol and Carl Macintosh - the two of them are incredible songwriters / producers. The Group is one of the most unique R&B groups in terms of their sound and their visual style. The Loose Ends Sound is its own Genre!
@REESCOMUSIC4EVER No worries at all! Hope you enjoyed the video! I agree with everything you said 💯 Loose Ends with Nick Martinelli were the perfect combo!
@@Sephsaysso Absolutely! I hope they reunite for at least one new project as the classic group line-up. (Steve, Jane, & Carl)
Watching You is my all time favorite Loose Ends jam they need their props seriously underrated
'Stay A Little While' is still the dopest song...the best instrumental solo ever. I can jam to it at any time! Makes me feel like I'm in a breathtaking Arabian desert...
I saw them long ago in Houston, TX.
Jeeezz, how old am I? I still remember being a little girl and my mother buying their album and bringing it home to play on the record player. Still fantastic music and so nice to know they are all still around and doing their thing❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Totally my childhood! I still have my mothers albums!
An underatted R&B group with a very authentic sound for the soul. For Hip-Hop fans in the U.S. I loved that Pete Rock got this group for the song, "Take your Time" on his Soul Survivor Album and also featured in the video. Smooth as hell hip-hop with their timeless touch. R.I.P MF Doom our brother. Thank you for the coverage in the most honorable fashion of details that reveal those cherished infinite archives.
Take Your Time is still sick to this day. Smooth as hell and it all fits. Pete Rock salute.
Loose Ends along with Incognito were two of my favorite British R&B groups. When I was stationed in Belgium back in the 80's it was Loose Ends, Rick James, Prince on heavy rotation in my bomb box! There was another group called Good for We that was also in that British R&B genre.
But, what about Princess? "Say I'm your number one?!"
Me & my homie grew up on these UK geniuses that were decades ahead of the game in music & technology...... Macca ... Jane Eugene & Nichols were a collaborative powerhouse of dynamic brilliance...... From Hanging On A String to A Little Spice. Make You Mine ??? Choose Me .... Where Are You ???? plus Mr. Bachelor???? Watching You .... Slow Down ..... Man oh man !!!! Too many phenomenal tracks .... LOOSE ENDS ...... Were , and are still one of the underrated BEST !!!! Mad Props Always From The Bayous Of Mississippi...... That's all we play & respect down here ...... Thank you for your contributions to the music 🎵🎶🎵🎶 industry !!!!
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
✌🏿❤️☺️
Here after "U Can't Stop The Rain" on BMF!!!! But actually been a FAN since the 80's
Man I really love these UA-camrs bringing a light to all these Great song's we heard as kid's at parties, cookouts and weddings. The "80s was such a special time ❤️ 🔥
For those who don't know this. Jane Eugene recorded an unreleased EP named "Selections" back in 94. I wasn't even aware she recorded it until earlier this year. I listen to the entire EP and it was the joint for me. The album still has that Loose Ends sound and vibe to it. I believe she was pursuing her solo career at that time. For those who are interested you can type Jane Eugene of Loose Ends to find it on UA-cam.
This is my FAVORITE GROUP since 1986. I still listening to them like they just came out.
Love 80's Brit soul acts. Princess, Jaki Graham, Loose Ends, Five Star, 52nd Street, Lisa Stansfield, Soul II Soul. Great stuff.
I loved this music in the 1980's and still love it 2023.
As a self-proclaimed almanac of soul music, let me state for the record that there were two groups that consistently brought it during the decade of the eighties: Loose Ends and Atlantic Starr. If those two groups could miraculously put aside their collective differences, reunite, and tour together, that would be magical. In my opinion, those two groups carried the spirit of true soul music. For an entire decade.
Sos band was also dope
Their production was " Sick " - Carl McIntosh was incredible. Listen with headphones, to really appreciate all the nuances. example: Stay a Little while child, Music takes me higher & Love controversy ( part 1) - they were a huge influence and Inspiration for my musical journey. oNe LovE from NYC
Agreed and nights of pleasure was 🔥
You got to thank Nick Martinelli for the production
@@dennisallen8333 Yes. Underrated producer for sure.
No shade, no drama, just an honest fact filled update on one of my favorite bands growing up. Well done. As an American, I always preferred British R&B. I remember my first trip to London....I was near Trafalgar Square and heard Slow Down on the radio. I was like "Who is this?". I came back to America with quite a few Loose Ends (and D-Influence) cd's. Thanks for the video. #NewSubscriber
@Michele Thomas same here I'm an American girl and I really enjoyed their music .
I grew up in Manchester and have played guitar for 30 years but I still listen to loose ends and 52nd street tell me how it feels. We were spoiled in the 80s in the uk for quality music and stunning vocalists.
My uncle bumped loose ends so much. They'll be in my playlist forever
I love, love, love this group! I still listen to their music today, always been a huge fan! It's sad they broke up, and won't perform together anymore. I would love to see the reunion concert with the three original members..especially Jane Eugene, she was my favorite.
What a phenomenal trio!
I definitely enjoyed the group and their sound. Till this day I still rock their music. For me, there is not enough documentaries that are made on the black UK sound. I truly loved the house music as well as the R&B back then. You don’t here that sound anymore 😔
You're right. I think about groups like Freeez, 52nd Street, Incognito, Linx, Imagination, Light of the World, Direct Drive/First Light, Central Line etc.
Even pop groups like Spandau Ballet, Level 42, ABC, Scritti Politti or George Michael with WHAM! were into it at a certain point of their careers...
And Sade, Simply Red or Lisa Stansfield were full R&B !!!
Well, now, simply speaking bluntly, the black UK sound sounds unblack and free of any soul. They generally sound like white-ified. Sounds more like pop music, about as funky as Mili Vanilli.
Like Egypt's pyramids, it seems like Loose Ends made music that is bound to last for eternity. Lost sight on them after ''Look How Long'' album in the first half of the 90's - an immaculate opus! Credit to them for having risen the bar in a time segment when the UK was flooding the world outrageously with flocks of incredibly talented artists (just remember Wally Badarou!). Feel very saddened to find out today how it all ended. Thanks for the documentary though!
Another group from the UK that needs to be touched on is 52nd Street. Children Of The Night 🌉 was a banger album "Tell me how it feels".
This was a great review on them way overdue.
I was blessed to see them (with Jane) perform live 5 years ago! Definitely one of the greatest groups ever!
I still play their music.
Yep, like it was yesterday.
Loose Ends was incomparably tight!
For me, no Loose Ends without Jane!
I agree
I was upset when Jane split!?
Carl wrote some more good stuff without the both of them! But the magic wasn’t there like in the past! It’s nice to know he tried to get them to come back!
I could blame the UK BillBoards!!!
Jane was probably leaning more to trying her luck more In the USA 🇺🇸?!
I understand her dilemma but wish they all considered for the sake of an incredible group!
@@KennyFame oh yes
I agree.
Agreed. I absolutely loved the last album but it should have just been a Carl McIntosh album because, it essence, that's what it was.
I grew up and went to the same school as Karl at South Hackney school. He was a awesome bass guitar player. I also visited his home frequently. His mother had a positive attitude and never let Karl waste time being idle. She made him aware of the value of time. I attended one of the studios on a frequent basis and watched Karl practice in a band before he even became involved with loose ends. They use have serious arguments with each other during practice. If one band member was out of time with their instruments or not up to standard, arguments would develop. There is on bas ass tune that was never released that I recorded while they were practicing in the studio before Loose ends arrived. The track was called easy street and it was a funk jazz fusion track. This track was awesome. Karl is so talented but believe me it was not all talent he had to put in some serious work and dedicate himself for years.
I'm from the US...I absolutely LOVE UK R&B singers. Yall picked up the torch and ran with it...Loose Ends was one of my fave groups of all times. My sister and I can't choose which Loose Ends was the best, Pt 1 or Pt 2...both sides were great. thanks for the doc. I think the show UNSUNG should have done a UK segment...love you guys!
Zaggora was the best Album. Nothing but good memories every time I hear any song from it.
"Zagora" was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
THERE BEST PERIOD
their music was in heavy rotation New York metro area mid to late 80"s my favorites were "Slow Down", Hanging On A String" Stay a little While Child" "Gonna Make you Mine""Watching You"."Choose Me".
Of course We know great music
My favourite R&B group hands down. I always go back to there tracks when I’m working out. I absolutely love them.❤️
One of the most underrated group out of the UK. They were a force to be reckoned with. Loved them then love them now.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Well done! Loved how you give snippets of each released song as well as interview pieces with the band members. Loose Ends is LEGENDARY and has timeless music that still sounds incredible. The videos and albums, basslines, vocals, and instrumentation are iconic. Sad to hear of their internal issues but grateful for their catalog of hits. 🎵🕺🏽💃🎵.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video ❤
Saw them live at City Winery Atlanta in 2019. Looking forward to their upcoming show. Their show and vibes were incredible at the 2019 show! They sound amazing live! Also they were very personable and welcoming.
Watching You was that jam. Freshman in high school. They had a really great sound.
_Zagora_ is in the top 5 on my list of _"Albums That Epitomize the Music of the My Incredible 80s."_ _Zagora,_ is _Sade with a beat. Danceable silk._
The 80s: _Lived 'em. Loved 'em. Miss 'em._
Just seen them perform at the 2022 funk fest at VA beach, they are definitely one of my favorites busting outta the eighties, wished all 3 could reunite soon, love them soooo much
I Skated To Their Music ALL Through the 80's and 90's!!! My FAV Song is "You CAN'T STOP the Rain and I BEEN Watching" 👏🏼👏🏼💫🎙🎵🥰😁
"Mr. Bachelor" was my JAM!!
If you have never heard "Hanging on a String" chopped and screwed, you're missing out!!!! Love this group...
I gotta check that out
Most definitely one of my FAVORITE R&B GROUPS OF ALL TIME!!
I’ll be seeing them in concert here in the states in a few weeks. Can’t wait!
LOVED this group! "Slow Down" was my jam but "Watching You" was everything!!! The best thing about them was the way they brought the party when they danced. If you weren't feeling the song at the beginning, boppng with the three of them made you feel it.
Of course, Jane with those fabulous freakin' hats... ❤
This!!!! “Watching You” is one of my top favorites that I still play til this day
