Old school. Love it. Brings back the memories.
This was a classic and takes me back. It represents a period in time for so many people!💖
This song is from a time when us teenagers listened to all kinds of music on one radio station!! Such great times! Thanks for bringing back my teenage years! Awesome voice and great song! We all loved this song!❤️
There is some mystery to this song. Some people think it is about an impotent man, while others think it is about a frigid woman. In an interview with Lamont Dozier, who co-wrote the song, he explained: "The story was, the girl found out this guy was not all there. He had his own feelings about giving his all. He wanted to love this girl, he married the girl, but he couldn't perform on his wedding night because he had other issues about his sexuality. I'll put it that way."
I've heard all of the mythical storylines as well; but never heard that Lamont Dozier (RIP) actually confirmed one of the storylines. I ask you: From which interview was this spoken?
Considering Stonewall occurred in 1969, and "Bank of Gold" came out in 1970, there is something peculiar about the time line, and the events of the world at that time
💕 Love this song. It was the First 45 record my Father ever bought me. I still have it till today. 🥰 🎶
This song was #1 in Toronto (1050 CHUM AM) on my 10th birthday (June 28, 1970) and I bought the ‘45 and wore it out ❤
I had it too. I was 9, and the 45 label was blue with the word Invictus on it. 😊
This was the ultimate singing with my hairbrush microphone song!
Or Karaoke? 🎤
this song is beautiful in it's simplicity and her voice...
Oh, you’ve just taken me back to early 70s and 16 year old me dancing with my friends at the youth club! Platform shoes & Levi’s . Ah! Happy memories!.
I was in my early 20s. Great times for sure
I’ve always liked this song since I was a kid decades ago. She has a beautiful voice and you can hear the anguish and sadness when she sings.
I love this song and her voice.
I`ve always loved this song! It`s actually on one of my playlists😊
Asia & BJ, you’ll love her "Bring the Boys Home" !!
My Mum and auntie Sheila singing and dancing to this just wonderful memories
"May,I have this dance"(Class of 71)
Absolute tune. I think I was about 12 when this came out (in England). Loved it then, still love it now
This song is talking about a young couple on their honeymoon night. He walked out of the room because he couldn’t seal the deal. And now she’s waiting for him to come back and love her like he “tried before.”
Poor guy - so the band of gold is a cock ring?!
He had to get his own room since there was no couch for him to sleep on.
This song hits me in such a different way💯👊💯 I can't help but smile and danceeeee🥰💃🕺 Love it❤
Me and my then to be wife, in 1970 used to love this song, and we got married, and the marriage lasted, thats good.
The only problem with this song, it's too short!! ❤
This song a think broke my radio back then, it was all over AM radio all day long. There were so many great songs that year but I’m sure this made the top ten year end charts. It was such a huge it.
A true classic..."Bring the boys home" is another great one by her.
This is one of my favorite songs that I have loved since it first came out. It is an irresistible pop/soul/disco tune. Yes, the lyrics are at odds with the tone of the song -- counterpoint. Her husband walked out on her on her wedding night, but you've not saddened because the tune is so catchy and upbeat. Doesn't it make you want to get up and dance (I did)!
Poor guy couldn't get it up on his wedding night is what this song boils down to. Great vocals, this song is a great groove!!!
They should play it during Cialis commercials. 😊
its a shame they dont make music like this anymore from a simpler time when you could actually listen to and enjoy the lyrics.
Lol, still replaying this one, I was 8yrs old when this came out. Thanks so much 😊😊❤
Freda is still out there singing!
It brings a new meaning to me since my husband has passed.
70's soul is one of my favorite types of music..depends on what I'm in the mood for was born in 1961 we had the best music
I was 11 years old when this was released. I absolutely love this song
Absolutely love this song! It pulls on my heartstrings.
THAT is a beautiful song! I adore the power of her voice. I have the original vinyl press of that particular album at the record shop I work at. It’s a glorious listen for sure!
Nice choice, you both! 👏🏽👏🏽💜
I was 6 years old when it came out, and they played it on the radio a lot.
Takes me back to my high school days.
This was the Motown sound. Freda’s vocals were perfect. So melodic , so clear. This is an all time classic.
It happens and hurts,but sometimes it's for the best 😊 because that was the past.😊
❤ Class of 71 ❤ May I have this Dance ❤in 2024❤
You two are so adorable together!
Now this is a banger!😂😂❤❤
A oldie but goodie. Forgot about this gem.
One of my all time favorites!
This song gives me chills. Memories.
Always played at family weddings back in the 1970's when I was a kid. Could look round the room for the women who where scowling and the ones that where dancing! Lol!
She had a timeless look and a golden voice.
I was a kid when this was released and I didn’t understand what it meant at the time but it’s just one of those songs that you CAN NOT turn off.
At the time, I was 9. I just thought it was about a newlywed couple that got into an argument, so he decided to get his own hotel room... Just that simple.
Damn I remember this playing all the time when I was a young kid and it’s funny I never paid attention to the words
I was 9 when it came out, and I just thought it was about a newlywed couple that got into an argument. Therefore, he had to get his own room since there was no couch to sleep on. 😀
Not at all ashamed to admit that this is my karaoke song. All love ❤️❤️❤️
The five heartbeats was based on the music group THE DELLS ! THE DELLS did all
the singing in the movie !!;;
It's funny, Lol😊 that she thought this was a real group.
Omg. I remember when this came out, listening to it on my portable AM radio. Rats. I'm older than dirt😢😊
I’m so happy to see you two young people enjoying this music! I’m in my 60’s now grew up with all this music! Keep up the great work!!!
Omg I listened to this 1000 times over the years!!
Lead guitar (not the sitar) is Ray Parker Jr of "Ghostbuster theme song" fame. Also, Freda's backup singers are Telma Hopkins and Joyce Wilson: "Dawn" of Tony Orlando and Dawn fame.
Brings back memories of the roller rink - great skating song!
A great song. A real classic!
❤❤❤🎶🎶🎶
Proper Tune……Proper Music.✌🏻🏴
Classic!!! Take care guys!!
Freda is so beautiful saw her in person singing this song ..so good ❤❤❤❤❤
i haven't heard this in a long time. Love it.
70s R&B was toooo good!!! God picked the perfect decade of my birth to enjoy these sweet soul classics!!
I remember listening to this song and many many others on the radio WLS - Chicago, (am radio) in north central, WI. Sometimes the station wouldn’t come in decent because it might be cloudy or raining or snowing out. lol
This song has it all ❤ still sounds fresh. Love that old school production. Strings, guitars, bass her vocal with back ground singers 👏
I love love love this oldie ! Oh my gosh - her voice is so incredible 💥💥💥
Freda's label, Invictus was formed by ex-Motown songwriting hitmakers Holland-Dozier-Holland, with house band The Funk Brothers playing on it. Gordy was SO retarded not renewing HDH's contract-- Even more so when he tried to sue them for "exploiting the Motown sound" (He lost in court, but made sure he got the Funk Brothers under contract with a clause they only play for his label quickly afterwards ) Dunno why Payne didn't have more hits with a voice like that!!
Beautiful music, beautiful voice and beautiful lady,,,,classic
Love this song.
Classic
Freda Payne! 😍
oh gosh i loved her! great voice!
The first song I remember by title and artist, as a young boy. I was 7 and watched Freda perform this song on Soul Train. Such a pretty sound, and a pretty lady...
Love this song!
I LOVED dancing to this song !! I miss the great old days !!❤❤
Great reaction,thank you. I loved this song. There wasn’t as much emphasis of genre at the time of this song, and it was played on a variety of stations. You might like “Fairytale” by the Pointer Sisters, too. Lots of country fans did not know who the Pointer Sisters were but loved that song.
You two are so adorable!!!
The movie the Five Heartbeats they we're acting like the real group The Dell's.😁👍😅
you didnt pay full attention to the words. "but that night on our honeymoon, we stayed in separate rooms". "i wait in the darkness of my lonely room, filled with sadness, filled with gloom. hoping soon that you walk back through that door and love me, like you tried before." i hear that as they waited until they were married and that night he couldnt perform. and so he left her. read into that what you will........... i used to skate to this song in the 70's. i loved the beat and the music, the words didnt mean anything to me back then as a young kid !
Amazing song
"The Funk Brothers" from Motown Records doing the backing music on this one for HDH.
Thanks guys. Great reaction. This song was written by the Motown giants Holland-Dozier-Holland under the pseudonym Edythe Wayne after they left Motown. Freda Payne does a super job on this. Keep doing what you do.
When I was 8 I moved into Camelot. All my neighbors were black. And I’m incredibly glad. I’d hear these songs AT MY FRIENDS HOMES helping do their chores so we could go outside.
This is a JAM!
Great stuff you two. all the best XO.
That "Twangy" stringed instrument is a Indian Sitar- popular for a few years since used by the Beatles..
Memories of my childhood
Love this song and Freda Payne. Music was so much better then.
Lamont Dozier, who co-wrote the song, he explained: "The story was, the girl found out this guy was not all there. He had his own feelings about giving his all. He wanted to love this girl, he married the girl, but he couldn't perform on his wedding night because he had other issues about his sexuality. I'll put it that way. It was about this guy that was basically gay, and he couldn't perform. He loved her, but he couldn't do what he was supposed to do as a groom, as her new husband." This was released on Invictus Records, which Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland formed after they left Motown in 1968. Holland-Dozier-Holland produced the track and wrote it with their collaborator Ron Dunbar, but because of their dispute with Motown, the H-D-H trio couldn't put their names on the label and credited themselves as "Edythe Wayne." Members of the Motown house band The Funk Brothers played on the track.
Because of the subject matter, Freda Payne did not want to record this at first. She thought the song was about a woman who was a virgin or sexually naïve, and felt it was more suitable for a teenager.
When Payne objected to this song, Ron Dunbar (co-writer of the song) said to her, "Don't worry. You don't have to like them! Just sing it," and she did. Little did she know that this song would become her biggest hit and would give her her first record of gold.
The lead guitarist on this track was Ray Parker Jr., who later found success with the theme song for the comedy movie Ghostbusters.
Freda Payne is the older sister of Scherrie Payne, the final lead singer of The Supremes. Holland-Dozier-Holland wrote many of The Supremes' hits.
Freda Payne said of this song: "It is about a wedding night that didn't work out. I wondered why a girl would have a problem on her wedding night and why they would be in separate rooms, but they said, 'Just learn it.' I had no idea that it would be such a big hit."
I liked the song when it first came out, but as a young man, sorry, I wasn't buying the premise...not with that woman.
Love her voice.
That Bass Line
Memory memories such lovely memories one comment about the Five Heartbeats we're really the Dells the singing group back in the day they had a hit song oh what a night❤
Wow a blast from the past 👊
When this song came out it was a catchy tune learn it fast love it
Great choice. Great song. 👍
Check out Parliament. I think the name of the song is tear the roof off the sucker
You’re doing some deep soul diving with this song, and I’d suggest “Clean up woman”by Betty Wright.
Classic song, love this
Good old ghost music 🙂🎶
I've always loved this song, but you don't realize how sad it is until later.
I've always understood it as a woman falling in love with a man who has tried denying his real desires.
Asia is beautiful!!
I’m back in middle school 😊
I always loved this song but that dude in it really needs a slappin' (especially after I saw Freda in the video)!
SOUL
This was the jam
In the day.
Favorite song ever ❤️
