    Say yeah!!!!At first I was a fan..but after this session...I became a complete air conditioner!!!!This is when real,honest to goodness musicians got together and just...blew everyones mind. Midnight Star just took this to a whole new level....DAMN!!!!! No twerking or dirty lyrics....just pure talent. The band is tight and on point...harmony..style....showmanship. No autotune for this group.....Bravo!!!!

    I'm glad I grew up in this era. The 70's, 80's and 90's had the best music ever. This took me back to when I was young and going to those house and basement parties. It never failed this song was alway playing. Music will never be the same especially when soul/r&b was real. True artist and bands killing. The concerts were even better. The music, melody and lyrics were on point. I know time has to change but I wish some things remained the same. Like if you love real music and artist like this.

    Back again after 2 years ago viewing. This group is the vanguard before the "Silk Sonic" rage. Just listening to that band is just magical...silky smooth and soulful. The two leads are just killin' IT...harmony..high notes..just Stellar. This sort of musical Icons will never be repeated...maybe imitated...but never surpassed. Slow Jam is pure liquid Soul...look at those outfits..hair styles. You have to give credit to the camera crew as well. Plus..this audience is very respectful of this artistry...nobody is throwing stuff or acting rowdy...just PURE fun. Those days are long gone..sadly. Nostalgia will always be 20/20. Thanks!

    Man, I HAD to get this song from iTunes after I heard it on my favorite R&B and Old School radio station! That bass line is so smooth and spot-on, I can hear it driving the whole song. This arrangment is so tight and so well done: this is why the standards last forever. Best of the 80s right here! This live performance is HOT! They don't make 'em like they used to! Damn good music, love the Old School.

    One of my all time fave jam!!!! I used to sing it in prisión with no music just the beat of the metal table... Brothers used to gather and just hear me sing!!!
