My goodness. I haven't heard this song in many years and to be honest I had somewhat forgotten about it! Lol. I'm Class of 87 and they played this song at my graduation party. I can't believe it's been 33 years, it seems like only yesterday. Where has all the time gone? I wish I could go back and do it all again but sadly the 80's will never return. Thank you for uploading this great song and bringing back all the wonderful memories.
Black people are a strong, intelligent, talented and spiritual race of people. We have been the most mistreated throughout history, yet we still remain strong. Plus, we have produced some of the best music around. We are a cool race of people. When I hear dope music like this, I am so proud to be black. Stay united black folks! We shall overcome one day! Peace.
My mom told me a story about how and her girlfriends used to go out clubbing they would tap each other on the shoulder and all the lights in club would light up gold when the chorus would play.

Ohhh man, i miss the 80s!!!!! Great music on the Radio, MTV was good, new hits every week, Michael Jackson on the TV almost every day, Queen, The Police, Madonna, that was the true decade!
I am a 26 year old white man living in Rotherham in the UK. This is the first time I've ever heard this song and it's the best thing I've ever seen in my life.
Well I am in my 30s(32 actually) so i got the chance to get these kind of music in the radios...plus the ones i liked in the 90s(grunge) and pop still rocked....I think you might have the same age as me or a little younger so its still a privilege to have lived the 90s too.
Porque en estos tiempos la gente está demasiado loca y la música que escucha está llena de odio y resentimiento. Fuimos felices en esos años y no lo sabíamos😔
I am caucasian and was born in 1999, still, I love this song. I think it doesn't matter your race, age, religion, gender or whatever, you can enjoy any music you want.
This injected maximum funk into me when boogied to it in 1986, recording it on tape off the radio was a thing. It still has the same effect 30 years on.
Oh my fucking god can't you all learn to respect other likes just because you like a certain genre or song that doesn't mean that the others are automatically trash or bad you just don't like it STOP
This type of music of the 80's is simply the best. The lyrics, the instruments and the vocals captures one's attention in a hypnotic way.I miss them days.
I just started dancing in my room to this song. Everything was so much fun back in the '80s. Now we have people complaining about everything. Everything is offensive today too. Nothing is fun anymore. It just sucks!
I remember making mixed tapes with all of these songs and before tapes playing the 45” singles and 12” extended mixes 🤣🤣. These jams NEVER lose their awesomeness.
If you had the Midas Touch for just one minute,what would you touch to turn into gold? Perhaps I should touch a hospital bed... ...so the NHS can sell it and buy a load of stuff they need from the proceeds.
All I see when I hear this is rolling through the streets of Detroit - 80's, bright colors, sunshine, and me smilin. Makes me wanna listen to "Treat Her Like a Lady by the Temps"
The Midas touch, touch, touch, touch Touch, touch, touch, touch Touch, touch, touch, touch You say you're goin' through changes Every day it seems your life is up and down And you say that you're lookin' for an answer Everywhere you look, it seems you can't be found Like searchin', tryin' to find the rainbow No one's ever found it, yet it's told to be But if you're lookin' for a lover Everything you need, you can find right here with me I've got the Midas touch Everything I touch turns to gold, oh sugar I've got the Midas touch Baby, let me touch your body and your soul Now you've been trapped by love Someone breaks your heart and then he says goodbye So you say that you'll never love another Tired of playin' games and that's the reason why But now whenever we're together There's a certain feelin' there, we both agree And it's time that you've opened up to love 'Cause if you don't ever try, then baby, you may never see I've got the Midas Touch Everything I touch turns to gold, yes, darlin' I've got the Midas Touch Baby, let me touch your body and your soul, oh, oh-oh Together you and I were meant to be I'll be right beside you whenever you need me This love we have will never fade away You can count on me 'cause I'm here to stay I've got the Midas Touch Everything I touch turns to gold, yes, darlin' I've got the Midas Touch Baby, let me touch your body and your soul (Won't you do that for me?)

Im 29 years old and a dj. Theres nothing like the 80s. Todays music cant compare to the 80s. ESPECIALLY for a party!
My dads favourite song and I got it played at his funeral when everybody was walking out so people could leave on a good note ! Great man !
May his soul always rest in peace. He sure had a great taste of music.
Kudos to you. Hope my funeral has good music.

God I love Midnight Star, and the Whispers, their songs never grow old, pure masterpieces that make you feel good inside
Brilliant tunes by these two groups
So true dancing to these songs with your friends and girlfriend Friday and Saturday nights at the discos
So bloody true - timeless bravado
Two of my biggest inspirations! You might like this song I just put out ua-cam.com/video/Nd0okFyPA74/v-deo.html
Who are the whispers
Both Midnight Starr and Atlantic Star were superb groups. I could listen to both for hours…
As thjey came along at about the same time,does anyone get confused as to which song was by which?
I am today 😁
I love the Atlantic star group to death.. I grew up listen to them on my elder brothers stereo desk. Much love from Lagos Nigeria
I actually forget who made which songs....but I love both groups❤
I literally looked up Atlantic Starr for THIS song. 🤦🏾 Glad to know it's not just me.
There will never ever be a decade like the 80's such brilliant music.
The greatest 10 years of music, nothing comes close.
You certainly won't find a decade with more colors or accessories to outfits..
Yes indeed,always I love it.
'90s
yeah indeed man that's never gonna happen again
Quality! Timeless. 2024?
Back when Everyone still loved each other.. Clothes were Shinny.. And The Fresh Prince was Still a Kid .Ha!!!!🤣❤️😎
Thanks to all of the artists who gave us real music!😍😍😍😍
I agree,,,
Hell yeah!

Lol...no way!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was the cocaine kicking in lol
When you realize most of your favorite songs of all time are atleast 30 years old 😱😱😱

Whos here from Mileys story?? 😭😭😂
we need to bring old school music back
How can we do that?
Patrick Chandler start with bringing back Record Shops and make MTV play videos and have video DJs , bring back Amercian Bandstand /Top of the Pops and Solid Gold
Yes we do
It ain't never left playa! Lol!
yes.
They don't make music like this anymore
they don't make fashion like this anymore.lol
Blood Orange, Steve Lacy and Solange Knowles
The creativity is over.
Go listen to tuxedo.. They sound almost just like this
They make shit these days
The eighties was just hit after hit after hit. Wish I had paid more attention at the time.
I agree...
At the end it was all Stock Aitken And Waterman shit. Yuk.
@danielnowotny true.
True dat true dat !!!
Yeah but hits are still a thing
I remember hearing this song a lot in my household growing up. Definitely a jam 🎶🎤
Ohhh man, i miss the 80s!!!!! Great music on the Radio, MTV was good, new hits every week, Michael Jackson on the TV almost every day, Queen, The Police, Madonna, that was the true decade!
true that
it was the best decade in musical history.
That be Seventies
The 70s were awesome but sorry the 80s blew them away, with so much diversity and the start of house and garage music
Ok
this song definitely touches my body and my soul!
"I'm like King Midas in reverse. Everything I touch turns to shit" -Tony Soprano
Funny 1 ngl
EA Games
🤣
One of the most underrated soul groups of the 80s, Go get there albums still sounding so great.
They not underated they had a lot hits
hope we have era like this again in my life time 🙌🏽
There won't be because people rely on their phones and don't have the boredom to push themselves to be creative.
This only happens once
Damn... Music from Solar Records was HOT.
Shalamar, Dynasty and The Whisper...
Andhika Gautama A lot of their success can be attributed to Leon Sylvers III, he produced a lot of hits for lakeside, shalamar, etc
Simply pure ear candy !!!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSS
@@UNDERGROUNDskateco and his basslines are some of the funkiest ever
PRODUCE BY LEON SYLVERS THATS WHY

I am a 26 year old white man living in Rotherham in the UK. This is the first time I've ever heard this song and it's the best thing I've ever seen in my life.
Why does your race matter
@@stayawayfromthewoke3412 I guess it doesn't
Why would you mention your race? That's irrelevant.
This is sooo my era,.. really I wish I could've enjoyed the 80s and early 90s it was a beautiful, feel good time.

the 90's sucked balls
lets go back and get in the mix
80s best music end of discussion
Why don't we have jams like this again? These are real music. We need new musicians who can recreate the 80's again in unbelievable ways.
ooh la la by jessie ware
Porque en estos tiempos la gente está demasiado loca y la música que escucha está llena de odio y resentimiento.
Fuimos felices en esos años y no lo sabíamos😔
Be first one,start bringing back this jams,you cant be producer
I am caucasian and was born in 1999, still, I love this song. I think it doesn't matter your race, age, religion, gender or whatever, you can enjoy any music you want.
I'm asian/ Hawaiian and I say the same thing. Just wanted to point out my race too.
Just enjoy the music. No one asked for all of your info
What has race got to do with a song being fabulous like this is , I agree with Paul Samson !

This group was awesome. Really miss this music and the times. Thank you for letting us enjoy your gift.
THE MUSIC FROM THE EIGHTIES ARE MUCH BETTER THAN THE SHIT OF TODAY WITH ALL THE RAP
Cyxvlo are you implying that this song here is not good music? If yes, why are you here? If no, your reply doesn’t make sense.

I’m 70 and I listen to this everyday. It’s great to Love the funk.
mike lee oooh we got a oldie!
may the funk be with you sir!
Yes!!!!
I'm 42,I remember at my family reunions this was a MANDATORY song to be played while BBQing w/fam and friends,then it was ruined by the crack era😢
I listened to this as a kid on f.m radio on way to school in my pop's car
The 80's was the start of a beautiful relationship between dance and music. If you were a entertainer MJ, Prince and Madonna change the game.
Love the music and the moves. Brilliant band from a great decade. Stay safe everyone.
2020 and still gives me the vibe
2022 still going strong
If you had the Midas Touch for just one minute,what would you touch to turn into gold? Perhaps I should touch a hospital bed...

The Midas touch, touch, touch, touch
Touch, touch, touch, touch
Touch, touch, touch, touch
You say you're goin' through changes
Every day it seems your life is up and down
And you say that you're lookin' for an answer
Everywhere you look, it seems you can't be found
Like searchin', tryin' to find the rainbow
No one's ever found it, yet it's told to be
But if you're lookin' for a lover
Everything you need, you can find right here with me
I've got the Midas touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, oh sugar
I've got the Midas touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
Now you've been trapped by love
Someone breaks your heart and then he says goodbye
So you say that you'll never love another
Tired of playin' games and that's the reason why
But now whenever we're together
There's a certain feelin' there, we both agree
And it's time that you've opened up to love
'Cause if you don't ever try, then baby, you may never see
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, yes, darlin'
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul, oh, oh-oh
Together you and I were meant to be
I'll be right beside you whenever you need me
This love we have will never fade away
You can count on me 'cause I'm here to stay
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, yes, darlin'
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
(Won't you do that for me?)
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, oh, sugar
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul, oh
Touch, touch, touch, touch
Touch, touch, the Midas Touch
Touch, touch, touch, touch
Touch, touch
Touch, touch, touch, touch
Touch, touch (oh)
Together you and I were meant to be
I'll be right beside you whenever you need me
This love we have will never fade away
You can count on me 'cause I'm here to stay
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, it's all in my hands
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
(Won't you let me touch you, baby?)
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, yeah, baby
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
(Everything I touch)
I've got the Midas Touch
Everything I touch turns to gold, yes, darlin'
I've got the Midas Touch
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
