I am a 65 year old black gay man. Listening to this in November 2024 and wondering “where did all those yesterdays go?” This song represents the best of living/ being in NY in the 70s and 80s. The music, (disco), the clubs, the fashion.These women are beautiful goddesses, without the need to twerk or be naked, bringing such joy with their music. Grateful to still be here and have these amazing memories. Unreplaceable………
The US gave us such tracks and as a club DJ in Newark (Nottinghamshire) my job was a privilege playing class like this. Todays so called "music" is no comparison to class like this..
A couple of years ago I was in a situation where I had no other choice to lesson to some"music". It was demeaning women with obscene language and was quite appalling but then a machine gun started going off - in the"song"-- I jumped so high!-
If we only knew the treasures we had back in the 70s and early 80s we would have truly savored the music much more than we did. I would never have believed it would get as bad as it has gotten😢
I saw them live at a nightclub near Colchester, Essex in the early eighties. I was only 15ft away from the stage and was blown away by the performance and their professionalism. Lillian’s voice was incredible ❤️
October 2024 and a UK guy and this still sounds amazing. I remember this from 1977 when I was 16 years old playing at the school disco and I loved this song so much.
There is something hauntingly beautiful that these lovely women have both passed but they are locked in time almost in immortality by this very famous song.
Hauntingly beautiful is just what I thought. In addition to your sentiments about them, they speak to a sadness women experience in the big city which they in turn embrace to make them stronger
2 beauty gone too soon...not fair!! Thanks so much for acknowledging and remembering them....RIP...always remember this song when I was growing up in High School in Jakarta and now been living for the last 40 years in Sydney ....and there you are...still singing in my heart and soul.....can not be forgotten ...LOVE it!!
I'm 76yrs old now when the 60's was soul all nighters and then the fabulous 70's disco scene with nice dance tunes like this, sadly those days are long gone but thank god we have UA-cam to bring back those great era's RIP Odesy
AMEN! The '60 were - musically speaking - the most imaginative decade musically. From Motown to German groups like Can ("Vitamin C") to folk, it was GREAT!
@@Rikki-lh2mwDon’t be silly. The term “native” denotes the place of one’s birth. In the context of American “Indians”, the proper term is “Indigenous People.”
This song is dedicated to my best friend who passed away in January. This was her song and mind. The best years was when this song came out. Yes, I miss her and though years.😊❤
I remember this song from my youth when my boss owned several night clubs in Far Rockaway New York in the 70's&80's!!..Best years of my young life!😊😮😂❤
God help you all there all our thoughts from LIVERPOOL ENGLAND .May your gods be with you. So so so sorry for your loss. Hang in there You are NEW YORKERS XXXXXXX
I was born in the late 60s and grew up in the 70s in Ireland listening to all the amazing black American singers. Candi Statin, Gladys Knight, Dorothy Moore, Odessy and many more. It saddens me to learn those beautiful ladies have passed on. Makes you wonder what it's all about. As they sing where have all those yesterday's gone. They definitely don't make singers like they used to. Rest in peace beautiful ladies.
This songs reminds me of when I was in New York from 1989 to 1993 I had the pleasure of meeting a true Native New Yorker..Ms. Luvenia aka Lulu..I was at the 6th street Library just arrived from California she was working as a security guard. Somehow we struck up a conversation and it was on! Ms. Lulu showed me the real NYC..she knew everyone and everywhere..we ran them streets like crazy. Hey Ms Lulu..I've never forgotten you. Love Always..
I just cannot express how much I love this track - no matter what the situation, it never fails to raise my spirits but leaves me lost in tearful reminiscence. "Where did all those yesterdays go ...?" 💔
Gracias, la oigo y la oigo.Bella. La escuchaba en Mérida y me emocionaba. Después, como locutor las presento en Caracas en la radio. Gracias, me entero de sus nombres. Que bonitas.
I completely agree and I'm a DJ too! One of the songs I used to sneak in on the air during my military DJ days!🎙📻🎶 THIS is MY song verbatim❣️Proud Brooklynite for life!🗽🌃💞
I can't believe that these beautiful people who gave us beautiful songs to accompany the equally memories of the '70s are now just memories themselves.

@@royhardy407 thanks so much for your kind words,but it's not only about the memories it is also living and growing up in a more uncomplicated happier safer time and knowing that our children will never be able to experience such happiness

Odyssey, more than any other disco group, not only wrote great disco tunes but they somehow contained in them a melancholy and a something that is so hard to put your finger on. Maybe they were just so human!
Just look at her face at 1:52. You could interpet that look into so many things - I miss you, can't wait til tomorrow, this day is taking so long, life is such a battle, why didn't I get the job, etc. One of the most versatile looks I've ever seen in a woman's face. She was so gorgeous. RIP Lillian.
When this song was a hit 52years ago,on the first week of September i started 2nd grade and met this dude named Jorge who sort of looked exactly like the Richard Ricover character on the classic Leave It To Beaver tv show,whom we would be best buds from that time to this day although we live 2,000 miles away. This song is memory time capsule of great times being kids.
I've never been to New York (or even the us) but the way they sing this song makes me feel that I have. It evokes images of what I imagine the place to be like. If you can do that, then you are something special.
God, this brings back memories when there was still a real New York. Simpler, more joyful times with great music; people knew how to sing back then too, like these ladies.
No other song evokes the wonderful vibe and great moments of the seventies music scene and club life like this one.A forever classic.Thanks Oddysey for this most memorable feel good groove.👍🌹💝😍😊🎧🎤🎹🎺🎻🎷🎼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
One of the best songs of the 70's. I'm puertorican but was raised in the south bronx in the 60's and 70's and consider myself a native new yorker 😉. If i'm not mistaken these sisters are puertorican too 😍 2020 and still enjoying this song 😍
This reminds me of a dear friend who passed away last year. He loved this song because he was a true native New Yorker.. couldn't imagine living anywhere else.. He grew up in either Mt. Vernon or New Rochelle I don't remember which but then lived all over the city for his adult life, Fordham, Staten Island, Sunnyside Queens (for a short time) and Woodlawn which is where he felt the most at home. He had to move in with a friend in Dobbs Ferry because of financial reasons. I miss him so much. RIP Jim
I never thought of that but you are right. I thought “ gypsies” but then again “ gypsies” was derived from the idea centuries ago that gypsies came from Egypt. They actually came from India. You may be thinking of Ankheperure mery Neferneferuaten (Living expression of the peace of Re beloved Beauty of Beauties of Aten) known as Nefertiti for short.
They were so regal, the epitome of elegance and class.. many of us were like that back then. They remind me so much of some of my relatives growing up then; all gone now.. mostof us were like this where i am from before the decline..
I remember being with my father when I was around 12 years old when he worked for the water company listing to CBS 101.1 in the company truck I wish how I could go back in time even if it was for a minute ❤
This song reminds me so much of my best friend that passed away maybe 30 years ago. I was maybe 14 and had just moved along with my parents, step brother, step sister to Croydon (The South of England) I knew no one at all. I can't remember exactly how we got introduced (His name was Trevor) but I soon found out he played bass guitar, he was self taught teaching himself of his Dad's bass. I was amazed and we soon became friends and I was soon begging my parents to buy me a Bass guitar which they did. We weren't a rich family so at the time it was a huge outlay. I would go to Trevors house and would patiently show me all the baselines he had worked out how to play by ear. These looking back where the best days of my life. Trevor soon after started to play guitar and we eventually got asked to join a band Trevor was always a better Bass player than me a his ear for music was unbelievable. He had a fantastic record collection some from his Dad but others he had purchased himself that was always a source of inspiration for us. I spent many hours even days in that house with him and his brothers watching videos eating oven chips whilst his Mum was at work nights and his Dad was away from home weeks on end. Trevor sadly passed away when he was maybe 17-18 years old. I remember being in the Doctors surgery oneway waiting to get seen and he came in with a girlfriend saying he had a headache and passed away few days later.I was devastated and that loss still affects me now 30/40 years later. This is one of the songs we would most doubt have listened to and learned and it reminds me of him as do many others. RIP Trevor Gittens xxxx

Ooohhh lovely memories of the 70's. Can't recall many saying they have wonderful memories of other eras.... Just saying
special times to get out and enjoy yourself 👍
I am so happy that I was dancing with her excellent music in Canadian discos.
still one of the best disco sounds around have loved this song since the mid 70's when it came out love love love
I miss the fun times.
I miss the fun times too.
Thumbs down to whoever thumbs down this CLASSIC!!!
Real music!
Forgive them they know not what they do. Its a sin not to appreciate beautiful music.
👍👍
God, this brings back memories when there was still a real New York. Simpler, more joyful times with great music; people knew how to sing back then too, like these ladies.
Too funny, that what the previous generation said to this music! Haha. Life changes.
Gladly Knight and the Pips--pure class.
Reminds me of being in New York city, late 1970's, hanging out with Odyssey. I was 1 yr old....😅
No other song evokes the wonderful vibe and great moments of the seventies music scene and club life like this one.A forever classic.Thanks Oddysey for this most memorable feel good groove.👍🌹💝😍😊🎧🎤🎹🎺🎻🎷🎼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Life is all memory 💙💚💛 1977
One of the best songs of the 70's. I'm puertorican but was raised in the south bronx in the 60's and 70's and consider myself a native new yorker 😉. If i'm not mistaken these sisters are puertorican too 😍 2020 and still enjoying this song 😍
Pr folks were right ON with this Mexican

Domincan. 🇩🇴

This reminds me of a dear friend who passed away last year. He loved this song because he was a true native New Yorker.. couldn't imagine living anywhere else.. He grew up in either Mt. Vernon or New Rochelle I don't remember which but then lived all over the city for his adult life, Fordham, Staten Island, Sunnyside Queens (for a short time) and Woodlawn which is where he felt the most at home. He had to move in with a friend in Dobbs Ferry because of financial reasons.
I miss him so much. RIP Jim
Song Never Gets Old.😊😅🎉
Two beautiful singers as well as looks , dressed like this they make me think of ancient Egyptian queens .
I never thought of that but you are right. I thought “ gypsies” but then again “ gypsies” was derived from the idea centuries ago that gypsies came from Egypt. They actually came from India. You may be thinking of Ankheperure mery Neferneferuaten (Living expression of the peace of Re beloved Beauty of Beauties of Aten) known as Nefertiti for short.
Love this song and this video. !!!!! praise Jesus for those days and these kind of feel good songs !!!! Thanks Odyssey !!
They were so regal, the epitome of elegance and class.. many of us were like that back then. They remind me so much of some of my relatives growing up then; all gone now.. mostof us were like this where i am from before the decline..
One of the most beautiful songs of these beautiful 70's with Lillian& Louise looking so great .Oh i miss that era of the disco music
I remember being with my father when I was around 12 years old when he worked for the water company listing to CBS 101.1 in the company truck I wish how I could go back in time even if it was for a minute ❤
I was kid and my mom would play this song on her 8-tracks. I would dance on the living room table with my sliding footy pajamas
Still one of the best songs for New York Jan. 30 / 2023
This song reminds me so much of my best friend that passed away maybe 30 years ago. I was maybe 14 and had just moved along with my parents, step brother, step sister to Croydon (The South of England) I knew no one at all. I can't remember exactly how we got introduced (His name was Trevor) but I soon found out he played bass guitar, he was self taught teaching himself of his Dad's bass. I was amazed and we soon became friends and I was soon begging my parents to buy me a Bass guitar which they did. We weren't a rich family so at the time it was a huge outlay. I would go to Trevors house and would patiently show me all the baselines he had worked out how to play by ear. These looking back where the best days of my life. Trevor soon after started to play guitar and we eventually got asked to join a band Trevor was always a better Bass player than me a his ear for music was unbelievable. He had a fantastic record collection some from his Dad but others he had purchased himself that was always a source of inspiration for us. I spent many hours even days in that house with him and his brothers watching videos eating oven chips whilst his Mum was at work nights and his Dad was away from home weeks on end. Trevor sadly passed away when he was maybe 17-18 years old. I remember being in the Doctors surgery oneway waiting to get seen and he came in with a girlfriend saying he had a headache and passed away few days later.I was devastated and that loss still affects me now 30/40 years later. This is one of the songs we would most doubt have listened to and learned and it reminds me of him as do many others. RIP Trevor Gittens xxxx
Poignantly beautiful 💋💯👊🙏
Reminds me of my friend Jim..this was one of his favorite songs... He grew up in Mt. Vernon and lived in the Bronx.. I sure do miss him

I'm well into my 80s and this song still hits me like a poignant musical sledgehammer.

I loved watching Wendy sing this, I'm hooked lol
I've gotta admit I never knew this song until I saw Wendy sing it. I like it even though I'm not a native New Yorker!
