My grandfather wrote this song, Thank you everyone who is appreciating this music in the modern era. It helps to keep him alive in spirit. ❤
I’d take this ove gangster rubbish any day least u can hear the words n swearig
my 1974 8th grade class trip was to NYC. so of course one of the things we did was take the ferry to see the statue of liberty. my best friends & i sang RTB the entire time onboard. i'm now 63 and i can tell you that EVERY single time i've been on a boat your grandpapa's song has whirled around in my head.
Your grandpa lives still. Proud grandson reminds us to never forget
Your grandfather? Oh great ♥️
Thank you!
Remember when music made you happy.
Still Does
Oh ya!🎶👍
I can understand the lyrics 😮
It still can? Wdym?
Ich höre den Song gern
A masterpiece of joy and beautifully harmonized vocals... Sad this era ended.
The era ended? I’d like to know where, you got the notion. 🤷🏻♂️
It ended allright but now look up Jesus is coming..Joy in Heaven forevermore !
the music never ends, like a great photo, it lives on and on

Oh, Lord I miss the 70s. Please invent a time machine A.S.A.P. take me back home.
70s is arguably the best time period for music. Maybe even better than my beloved 80s music. Maybe.
You are so right!
The best music was in the seventies.The seventies produced the great singing stars. 🌟🌟🌟
Apples and oranges. Some would say 50s or 60s as contender for best decade . I’d say I love them all and let other descend into tribalism while I enjoy the entire buffet !
I think they are 1a and 1b doesn't matter which you out first
Those of us that grew up at this time should consider ourselves fortunate!
Yes! It was a good life.
Not musically very sophisticated but great to dance to...and then? What a great time!
We were demanding ATTENTION to be SEEN and HEARD...NO. SOPHISTICATION was needed Whipping was still netted to Men and our BLACK WOMEN were assaulted/sexually in the factory and houses they WORK.
Wasn't unless you didn't care/aware or WHITE..50s/60s/70s.....@carldombek922
Very fortunate indeed
Rest in peace Hubert Ann Kelley, she passed away on July 20th, 2023, and was the last original member, what a voice! Check out their song, “I Got Caught Dancing Again”, her vocals are amazing!!
Wow I didn't know she passed
@@angelatrice-bari1535 unfortunately there was no coverage of her passing, I found out through the current groups manager
I miss him too....... peace to Belview Photos of all of his friends.
loved this song since it came out
Rest in peace,l didn't know she died!
Rest in peace Dad. He told me that he and his friends rocked this music on my second birthday ( 1974). This was his favorite song
😑whatt
Sad to hear that, stay strong and cherish the memory.
Sorry to hear that .god bless you .
So sorry friend
May he RIP, I appreciate that U remember
My mama is 99 and still loves this song. When she's not feeling well, it really perks her up.
It's a classic song
🙏💛🙏
☺️
May GOD Bless her heart to see more years ahead. What fantastic longevity! Let us all know what's the secret to that👍
Your awesome

I am now 66 years of age. When I was 16 years old, I worked with Bernard
St. Claire Lee ( man with headband in video), House of Pancakes, 443
East Manchester blvd, Inglewood, California. This was before Hues
Corporation became recognized. He was an opening cook and I was a weekend bus boy. He would rehearse after work. I am pleased he got recognized for his talent. He was truly a nice man and I don't recall
him ever saying anything bad about anyone else. He passed away a couple
of years ago. He grew up in Santa Monica, Ca and was part American
Indian. I remember him fondly. He gained recognition after " Rock the
Boat" and did sound track for the late 1970s Black spoliation movies. I
became a doctor of optometry at age 26.We never met up after leaving the
House of Pancakes.
That is awesome! Little tidbits and this song make the world a happy place.
Wow! I really like the story...😘
Thanks for sharing that, man. That's cool.
thank you for sharing this :)
@@annapuerto3409 hello Anna
The lady's supporting vocals is what really helps make this hit something special!
Música pra ouvir com a alma alguém ouvindo em 2024 deixa um joinha ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can almost see my parents dancing in the living room 💔 RIP my parents , thanks for teaching me good music .
Detroit Rock City remember James Brown Little Richard Chuck Berry and a whole bunch more the heart and soul even back in the forties and fifties then Motown moved to Los Angeles and everybody moved to LA and the Heart and Soul was in Hollywood musicians wanting to get themselves on a record
the best good music forever! RIP your parents my condolences. 😪
@@stephennetherton9818 My father was the most proud black man I ever knew. He wore a big hair and flair pantaloons till the end of 80's . I loved him so much... He showed me love that I never got from any human being .
Beautiful , thought ! ☺️💃🕺🥳🥳🥳🥳🛥️😘
I feel you. RIP to my parents as well. They jammed this song on the stereo phonograph during the Summer Of 1974 when I was 9.
grew up with this great music. I was a kid back then!!
I still think the 70's was the decade of the best songs. Best groups, solo's and duo's as well. Motown and disco with the songs of love and joy.
Dont forget about the rock n roll as well
@@rattlehead54321 Some good rock & roll back in the 70's.
... this is not D.I.S.C.O. ...this is authentic : Philadelphia (o Philly) sound, Philadelphia soul, o Sweet Philly
@@estebanposadaduque6415 Read what I put. I didnt say THIS was d.i.s.c.o. or even disco.
@@estebanposadaduque6415 philly funk soul if im correct
I do Still listen to This Song In 2024😊
And more and more, for ever.
Me to, excelent music,remember it's live

Lead singer's ( Flemming Williams)voice is pure butter
It's like liquid velvet
Timeless classic
❤️ this song, brings me back to good old days
this is what you call soul music
Was on my late father's boat when this song came out. I'm a boat Captain. Will never not have a boat. Thanks dad
same here
@@ldcbossrob3938 I'd settle for a pirogue and paddle
Right... When music wasn't about hate and violence and wasn't filled with disgusting profanity... The good ol days
I would so like to go back to the 70's, they went by way to fast. Life was so much more simpler.
The old music is much better. Better melody, singing, and lyrics..
Glad I was there! We had fun dancing, no dirty lyrics - no rap.
This song never ever gets old. Always beautiful and thrilling.
I'm 68, what great memories..
True. X
In Venezuela it was a big hit. People would get up so fast to dance to the beat...
Is it a Pop tune or Soul? Both!!!!
Of course
12 years old in Miami 1974 we had a neighborhood pool day and night pool with the radio playing.
I can so relate!. We had a local pool and all we did all Summer was go swimming while this song played. I was 10. Great memories
Summer 1974. Age 9. My parents danced to this jam when it was bumping. Fond memories. RIP Mom & Dad.

Soul Makossa lit the fuse, this was the explosion!!!
The first big mainstream disco hit, maybe… but definitely not the first true disco song. That honor belongs to The Intruders, with “Win, Place, or Show (She’s a Winner)” from two years earlier in 1972. That was hands down the very first fully realized disco song. It just wasn’t a big well known hit like Rock The Boat was, though it did get some chart action in the UK two years after it’s release.
i´m from Brazil and i´m back here again to remind you the older songs are the best ones .
I completely agree with you Sergio 💯
Especially 70's and 90's they hit different
@Brian's Place especially the 70's and im born 2007 i grew up listening to the jacksons, tender love, stop in the name of love and old time stuff i love ittt
Cool, when you said you're back again, do you mean from the 70s?
Agreed! Sergio! Agreed!
listened to this for like 30 years and it blows me away every single time
Bella canzone...elegante, mai stucchevole, rythm and soul....bravi
Still a banger... Timeless
LOVE her outfit!
So many memories from childhood!! Wonderful!!🥰
Yes totally agree.
As long as we keep listening to these good music from our growing up years our good memories will never fade.
Boa noite desde Río de Janeiro
i was born in 1991 and i love this
True
Love this song
Me Too
Rock on with your bad self!
So do I. Greetings from PERU
We have some something in common.
Same
The only problem I have with these music, once I start listening I can't stop. 😊
We didn't know how great we had it👌
This was the best time the 1970
Great music there will never be any go music like this never never ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
GIVES ME THAT NASTALGIC WARM FEELING IN MY SOUL

In a heartbeat, out every night new clothes every week, football every Saturday and girls on tap. Who wouldn't!
Meeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
Yes would love to go back to the 70's
You can't get a happier song
MUSICA QUE ME PRODUCE NOSTALGIA, HOY TENGO 63 AÑOS Y AUN RECUERDO MIS TIEMPOS DE SECUNDARIA. COMO QUISIERA QUE ESTA MUSICA NUNCA DEJÁRA DE ESCUCHARSE.
When music made sense and made you feel good
I'm listening from Jackson Tennessee this song brought back fun memories for me!!
Summer 1974, and my family are headed back home to PA after a weekend of sun 'n' surf in Rehoboth Beach. Packed in our big blue 1972 Pontiac Grand Safari wagon with the radio tuned to Philly's "Famous 56' WFIL with Mom and Dad and us six kids singing to this song at the tops of or lungs like wannabe rock stars!
This performers from our times had talent and they didn't need to say bad words in their songs. Thank God I grew up in the 70's. Still listening to this music in 2020 and beyond!!
Bellissima canzone voce dolcissima adoro questa grande musica strumentale e la più bella canzone di tutti i tempi ricordo la mia gioventù quando cantavano questa canzone super bellissima. 💯💯💯💯👏👏👏👏
And they could convey the (non-obscene) words by pure good diction without depending utterly upon spot mikes.
This is the atmosphere we should keep in our mind and hearts at this horrible time , the good old days
I was born in 90s but i luv the disco era
Agree

Truly a great message that always seems to present itself at just the right time. Those three harmonize with each other beautifully and you can tell they are having the times of their lives filming this thing.
I miss this America, where did it go?
Where did it go? We truly didnt realize how good it was at the time.
True!
It can still be good. Good Americans are jamming this. I hope :)
Clásico de clásico.
Escuchando en 2023 🎵❤️
This and Rock Your Baby got huge airplay and were the songs that ushered in the DISCO era folks!!
That's right!!
It was a noticeable change in dance music at the time.
If I recall correctly, 1974 (the year this was a hit) was the year Billboard created their dance chart, and a lot of that had to do with the success of this song and the obvious tide of new dance music flooding in. Rock The Boat wasn’t the first disco song, but it was definitely the first big disco hit, and as you said it ushered in a new decade-defining craze.
My parents would empty the living room of all it's furniture and throw parties, lots and lots of parties. Everyone dancing in the living room. I remember this is one that got them all dancing.

We are blessed that the Lord let's us keep these memories after already blessing us the first time in having the experience in the first place. Family, while at times one of the great source of tribulations, provides us with the context which we bring with us in our lives and the love that underlies this context, these experiences and the family itself is unique in being a reflection of the love we are shown by the Divine for the world itself. One of the signatures of the creator in left to reassure Creation and sustain our faith. May the blessings rain down upon you and your family.
I love '70s. Greetings from PERU

Just love the Hues Corporation for their great 70s sound!
Summer 1974 on holiday with my family in the mountains of the Italian Alps.
I was a kid, but I remember this beautiful song being played on jukeboxes and the radio.
Great memories ❤️
Years ago my neighbors used to annoy me playing this over and over, but then it started growing on me. I've loved it ever since.
2022 and we're all still loving this.
I wonder how many in this week's chart will be as enduring?

Derry Girls has made this song extra special to me.

It aided my memory & keeps me alive. Thanks to the Hue corporation
Always takes me back to a Summer in the 1970s that brings happy memories. Miss those days.
70s in Miami
Best times of my life
Leka Calypso type music 🎉❤😁
Nothing can't beat that 70's music i wasn't even i. That Time
My mom used to play this song on purpose cuz she knew one of my favorites and she loved to see me in my zone singing and dancing to this so I'm glad that she had that good memory and I'm glad I gave it to her, because I remember. Lord knows I love that woman, glad you got your wings mama.
Luv & devotion .😘😘😘😘
I'm still listening in 2024! Music used to have feeling and was going somewhere. I looked this song up on utube and it brings it all back home.
You can't beat these old songs - they were intrinsic to my youth. True craftmanship.
Never old my friend

70's -80's...BEST MUSIC EVER.
I am 20 years old growing up with all these new musicians. My dad has shown me this song when I was like 8 and over the years I listened to it occasionally but now I really appreciate the song and am listening to it pretty frequently and I love it. Great Music and art in generall lasts forever
I was born in 95 but I sure wish I knew what life was like in the 70s. Heard this song growing up and feel the nostalgia so I can’t imagine living life in the 70s 🥺
If you had a lovely and warm childhood, than you are happy with any decade i think. I was happy than in the 70's, and surely it was a lovely period in time. People are still the same at any day in time. The music was wonderful that's for sure!!
Grew up in the 70's IT ROCKED we played music all the time.
Same. I spent all my teenage years hearing about how weird it was that I only listened to "old people music" lol and here I am, still doin it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Viviana, The 70's was THE BEST!!!!
It's everything you heard and more.
A great song from a great decade

Love their voices moving and singing with them. Hit that high note 😂
This is the music that all good radio stations are still playing...my grand kids love this music
Esta canção resume tudo o que foi a época da disco músic. Ela é bem do início da década de 70. Praticamente inaugurou a disco! Sei que tem várias outras que também são muito boas, mas essa pra mim é o hino da época! Quando entram os acordes, me emociono na hora!

This is one of my favourite pop songs from the 1970s I always play it on Saturday Night's down the Grecian Taverna Restaurant in Plymouth Devon 😊.

Me encanta porque tiene toda la vena setentera: movimientos, calidad de video, calidad musical.
Grandisima canción que no debe olvidarse
