I’m 54, I will ALWAYS dance to this song. If I hear it in a store, hells yes. In my car, definitely. When I’m 84 & in assisted living, I will use my walker. How can you NOT move to this song. 😏
There was a moment in 1990 when the fashion and music took heavy influence from the late 60s, this is the theme song of that moment. For a brief moment in the clubs, the fashionistas would dress like this and strut their stuff. This reaction was one of your best!
The 1990s were just wild. Not only was there a 1960s movement, there was also a strong swing era throwback with 1940s-style music that also helped vault some Ska bands into the Top 40 for a hot minute (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, etc.). I remember a GAP ad with a bunch of models swing dancing in their khakis, plus the movie Swingers was obviously from this period... So strange but so fun.
Dude, I'm a METAL HEAD and I have always dug this song, and that girl can move! Groove is in the heart for reals ... Fun fact: I thought she said "Groover's in the House", for the longest time ... lol
Yep you've got Q-Tip. PLUS Maceo Parker (sax), Fred Wesley (trombone) & bass player Bootsy Collins who all played together in both James Brown's band AND Parliament Funkadelic: Bootsy doesn't actually play the bass on this song he just provides guest vocals. The bass line is a sample from Herbie Hancock's song "Bring Down the Birds" originally performed by bass legend Ron Carter. Most of this song is sampled from some really obscure places (even the slide whistle).
I saw a comment on another reaction to this song that it marks the exact moment when the '80s turned into the '90s...and I can't think of a better description for this classic! It pulled in some retro images and fashions from the '60s-'70s era, threw in a great dance beat, some funk, rap, guest appearances, and mixed it all up...with slide whistles. If you ever watched the sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" there's a scene where Barney dances with Robin to this song at Punchy's wedding, and it's a fantastic dance scene!
I was working at a clothes shop named “Rave” and this song was on one of the prerecorded tapes. Still one of my favorite songs, because it always gave me a much needed lift in my day.
these guys were at all the jazz festivals back in the 90s.. they played shows with Parliament , Grace Jones, Pattie laBelle ,Prince and Pharcyde. The singer is Lady Ms Kier a DJ and producer ,she has alot of friends in the funk, jazz community, thats why her n bootsie teamed up on this one.
I was there, can confirm dressing like a hip hop hippie was the vibe in 1990. Lilac Chuck Taylor's, a floral NAF NAF t-shirt, flared jeans and a bucket hat was my uniform. I blame De La Soul and the non-GMO weed. One of my favourite tunes of all time.
Brings me back to the Clubs! Love it! Love your reactions today even more! BP ~ You are one of the few real ones and I love and appreciate you immensely for it! Never change! Honesty, Integrity and Respect! You are a triple threat!
Man, I'm so glad you did that!!! This song is actually on my gym playlist! This gives me that pick me up energy I need while working out right along with Ren! LOL My club is Genesis so I start with that song followed by Losing It and you bet Deee-Lite is in the mix!!! Now I was a late bloomer so this was the stuff I was dancing to in the club!!! ❤❤🎉🎉❤❤ They've got a lot of great music!!!
This song is still as fire as it was when it first came out when I was in college. Plus you've got Miss Lady Kier, Q-Tip, Bootsy Collins and a Herbie Hancock undergroove. Come on, man - it doesn't get better than this for a dance song.
Oh, I loved this song so much and the fashion in the video! This was popular in my 20s right after collge - went dancing in the club to this one! The clothing was 60s/70s - reminds me of the styles they wore on the TV show "Laugh In".
Oh maaan how have u not heard this absolute classic! I love this track. It never fails to make u dance or to cheer u up. Has to be played loud…. Absolute classic of the times, but still holds up.
What blew my mind was when I realized that (even though Bootsy Collins is in the vid), the groove is a sample from Herbie Hancock called “Bring Down the Birds” ☮️💜🎶
This was wall-to-wall in every club you entered for a hot minute back in the day, and it still makes my heart skip a beat. There's been enough time now. Now I can enjoy it again. It was so saturated at the time that, I know, I know, you could get tired of it.
When I saw this pop up on my UA-cam recommend today I was freaking out. One of my favorite reactioners doing one of my favorite songs I used to groove to. And my first thought was, "How did he not know this song?"😊😅
As soon as I saw you were doing this and had to watch even though I am in bed sick you didn’t fail me thanks you just made me feel a bit better this is 1 of my all time favourites top 5 of all time
Back in my Rave days in the early 90's I lived in a small town in Kingston, Ont Canada and there was a girl named Robin (I won't say her full name) who is now an internationally known techno Dj. She was our towns personification of Lady Miss Kier . I could spend the whole evening just watching her dance. Some people just truly have groove in their heart and are such a joy to see.
This song still slaps hard in 2024
Can't help but dance when it plays, Everytime ❤
Bootsy, Herbie, Q-Tip. Not hard to see why this is so fire 🔥.
Also an appearance by James Brown/Parliament-Funkadelic saxophonist Maceo Parker.
@@strathadam1 Oh yeah! Good call!
I’m 54, I will ALWAYS dance to this song. If I hear it in a store, hells yes. In my car, definitely. When I’m 84 & in assisted living, I will use my walker. How can you NOT move to this song. 😏
Well said!
Couldn't agree more to this...
I'll wheel up beside you and get our " groove " going!!!
From west coast Canada 🇨🇦, peace.
58 and right there with u! 😂😂❤❤
I will be there with y'all!!! I always sing and dance to this song wherever I hear it.
Technotronic. Pump up the jam!
@@traveldoc1234 …Don’t forget Pump Up The Volume by M.A.R.R.S…It’s still in my playlist! Cheers!
Yes, indeed that was the song!!!
YASS!!!! Dat one!!

Yeah, Austin Powers, B52s Love Shack and The Flintstones.
Soho Hippy Chick...

I remember everyone wearing The Doors t-shirts in high school in the '90s.
Going to write the same thing. 80’s was 50-60’s influence. 90’s was 60-70. That’s 70’s show. Deelite flower power bell bottoms and hair.
This was such a club tune when it first hit in the UK. Still a party classic..
Soul II Soul "Back to Life ( however do you want me)". The lead singer has an absolute stunning voice
I agree
Caron Wheeler ❤
The album it self, Keep On Moving, is such a great listen all in all. 😊
Keep on movin' was truly influential. Back to Life as a single was a remix of the original album acapella.
YES! Ms Caron Wheeler, if I rightly remember... One of my personal fave songs!
I could watch her dance all day
Me too.
Dude, I'm a METAL HEAD and I have always dug this song, and that girl can move! Groove is in the heart for reals ... Fun fact: I thought she said "Groover's in the House", for the longest time ... lol
Lady Miss Kier would dance and move like she's made of Energizer Bunnies AND sing like it's abdolutely nothing.
For real - LIVE
This is FIRE ...this has ALWAYS been FIRE...this WILL always be 🔥.

👍🏻⬆️ This person music knowledges...
And "Get. Up" by Vernon Burch
@@pixelrancher Yes! That's the song the slide whistle was sampled from!
@@laraismyname821 yup✌
Dee-Lite was THE BUSINESS in 1990!! This would fill a dance floor and have it on fire!!!!🔥
it still fills dance floors
@@knavehart There are dance floors still?
It STILL fills dance floors!
And if there isn’t a proper dance floor, everybody in the store just starts busting a groove.
This song was fire in the day. I am 62 and I am a huge fan of this decade's funky fresh vibes. Love this song.
I’m 64 and same here!
I never get tired of this.
This is one of the biggest club tunes ever. Still to this day. I don't know what you were doing in the 90's. And Lady Miss Kier Kirby is top totty.
That catsuit...!
This group was far ahead of its time. Their sound goes in crazy directions you wouldn't expect.
Yes!!!!! 🙌 Ur face throughout that whole video was priceless!! 🤣 God bless the 90s! 🙌
I've seen the video so many times that just watching BP was so much fun!!
Oh hell yeah BP, this song made my Gen x heart glow 😍
What a classic 💃🏼🤩🔥❤️🔥

During the 90's a ton of people started doing 60's throw back stuff! And Deee-lite was a huge group in that mix!
I was working at a clothes shop named “Rave” and this song was on one of the prerecorded tapes. Still one of my favorite songs, because it always gave me a much needed lift in my day.
The dance floor was always full when this came on! So much fun back in the day.❤
My best friend was OBSESSED with this song. She would play it over and over and over! We were 14
these guys were at all the jazz festivals back in the 90s..
they played shows with Parliament , Grace Jones, Pattie laBelle ,Prince and Pharcyde.
The singer is Lady Ms Kier a DJ and producer ,she has alot of friends in the funk, jazz community, thats why her n bootsie teamed up on this one.
One of the best dance songs ever! So catchy! dbl ♥
Go into any club in 1990 and this song was thumping! So many memories when hearing it.
We saw Deee-Lite in concert here in Toronto in 1990. They were so much fun ... a lot of fun fur and wind machines.
I was there, can confirm dressing like a hip hop hippie was the vibe in 1990. Lilac Chuck Taylor's, a floral NAF NAF t-shirt, flared jeans and a bucket hat was my uniform. I blame De La Soul and the non-GMO weed. One of my favourite tunes of all time.
This song was HUGE in Europe. Heard it absolutely everywhere when it came out.
props bro, you recognized bootsy collins most people dont
I've loved this song from day one. I'm surprised I've never heard this version with the rap. Always learn something new.
Brings me back to the Clubs! Love it!
Love your reactions today even more!
BP ~ You are one of the few real ones and I love and appreciate you immensely for it! Never change! Honesty, Integrity and Respect! You are a triple threat!
This song is just so funky and groovy. Love the bass line.
LMAO it has been years since i saw this on tv wow it brings back memories
Man, I'm so glad you did that!!! This song is actually on my gym playlist! This gives me that pick me up energy I need while working out right along with Ren!

One of the best club/house/disco-esq songs to ever come out! Still an awesome song all these years later.
I'm almost jealous that you get to see this for the first time as an adult. This is such a funky, happy song.
Club music from the early 90’s! Your face tho 😂😂 ❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
Watching your reaction was entirely worth it! You were so bewildered! Loved it!
Yes!! I was bewildered as to why B.P. was, so, bewildered! 😄
Oh, I loved this song so much and the fashion in the video! This was popular in my 20s right after collge - went dancing in the club to this one! The clothing was 60s/70s - reminds me of the styles they wore on the TV show "Laugh In".
It is said that this song marks the exact point in time when the 80s became the 90s.
Deee-Lite and Humpty were a great start to a party, back in the day.
Impossible to NOT want to hit the dancefloor when this track drops. To this day!
I absolutely love this song!
I love this 😂❤
I'm 32, this song has been a favourite of mine since I was 14. So fkn groovy man
I was 15 when this came out in 1990. Same. It’s weirdly and awesomely timeless. I still play it regularly.
I remember watching this every time it was up on MTV or VH1. Good times, man. Good times.
biggest banger in the 90's lol and your eyes at 5 minutes dammit man you have me in stitches
This was played at all the fraternity parties back when it first came out. So much fun.
I loved this song when I was around 15 in 1991, I was jumping an dancing all around my room! Such a fun song! 🎶💓👯
That's why the 80s and 90s were so awesome - everything from AC/DC to this, and all in between .. enjoy, cause we sure did
HOW have you not heard this my man?! 😂 Still sounds just as good as it ever did too
It's scientifically impossible not to love this song.
Timeless classic. These went hard in the UK!
This is what's known as a club banger.
Heavy Metal Head here, loved this song. It just grooves, too easy to like.
Watching your mind literally malfunction when Q-Tip started rapping was hilarious.
Can’t believe you haven’t heard this. One of the best of the 90s dance club hits. Love it still. It’s fun and you have to dance.
Oh maaan how have u not heard this absolute classic! I love this track. It never fails to make u dance or to cheer u up. Has to be played loud…. Absolute classic of the times, but still holds up.
🇬🇧
This was a HUGE club hit back in the 90's, guaranteed to fill that dancefloor 💃🕺And you got QTip & Bootsy Collins correct 👍👌🎼🎶
I’m a Gen X and I danced my butt off to this song at clubs & parties! Still a great funky fun song! Classic ❤👏🏼
This was a huge hit in the UK, very early 90's I think, its groovy as groovy gets
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG.
who knows what is going on, all I know is it makes me happy every time I hear it!
What blew my mind was when I realized that (even though Bootsy Collins is in the vid), the groove is a sample from Herbie Hancock called “Bring Down the Birds” ☮️💜🎶
The OG… ua-cam.com/video/0yLHOAkj9ss/v-deo.htmlsi=RPRYBu4OKmZp-OhP
Yup, the great Ron Carter holding down the bottom end
Great song but incredible video and I just love Lady Miss Keir's groovy dancing.
It's so wonderful to see first time reactions to this banger!!!
This was favorite song to wake up with a hangover on a Saturday morning. Pure original hip hop. Doesn't get any better than this
That was brilliant. I was 16 when this came out and was played everywhere.
I haven't heard this in years, thank you so much!!!♥
Awesome song. Always loved it and still do.
I still bust out dancing to this song!
I was going to suggest this track to you yesterday. Very happy that you've done it.
What was that? That was FUN, that's what that was! Thanks for this great reaction! Took me back a few years! LOL ✌💙✌
This came out in 1990 😎
Yep. I was in the 9th grade then. Now in 48! Time flies!
I just played this for my 23 year old daughter yesterday and she totally knew the hook 😂
This was the first show i ever went to with friends and no adults. Great time.
Loved this back in the day. Also best video everrrr 😂❤
Love this song!! Danced my little legs off to this many times!!😂❤
I loved this song so much when it came out.
I was a resident DJ when this tune dropped and man I probably played it every night for a year. Such a banger.
How have you not seen this before! Such a great track
Love this tune
This was wall-to-wall in every club you entered for a hot minute back in the day, and it still makes my heart skip a beat. There's been enough time now. Now I can enjoy it again. It was so saturated at the time that, I know, I know, you could get tired of it.
Fantastic song and video💜
When I saw this pop up on my UA-cam recommend today I was freaking out. One of my favorite reactioners doing one of my favorite songs I used to groove to. And my first thought was, "How did he not know this song?"😊😅
your expressions are so goofy and fun. i love these reactions. this was everything on all cylinders all the time.
As soon as I saw you were doing this and had to watch even though I am in bed sick you didn’t fail me thanks you just made me feel a bit better this is 1 of my all time favourites top 5 of all time
Such a great tune 😍 love your reaction
loved it in my teens, one of the greatest house tracks ever.
When that Intro came on EVERYONE flocked to the dance floor.
Yep still grooving to this , Good vibes
It was running on MTV every day for many years
I loved this song, so fun 🤩
Everybody loves a little bit of Deee Lite because... the groove is in the Heart. Irresistable.
First Record I ever bought absolute classic ❤
Back in my Rave days in the early 90's I lived in a small town in Kingston, Ont Canada and there was a girl named Robin (I won't say her full name) who is now an internationally known techno Dj.

That's the 90's in a nutshell :)
