The best disco song ever recorded by a werewolf.
Yes, but my money is on Teen Wolf in hoop and roof surfing.
That's true! ah ah ah ah ah!
Also a pepper
Excelente!!!
@@station2123An American Werewolf In London was better.
This song takes me back to 1980, when my best friend and his wife were local champion disco dancers. We used to go watch them dance, and they often times won first place or in the top three. She died of cancer about 4 years ago, and he died last month of cancer. Thinking of you, Jeff and Sue, R.I.P.
I'm so sorry.
Que en paz descansen
😢😢😢
I'm sorry for your losses😢❤
How fun what a great memory unfortunately for a long gone friend.
this guy really gets around, he’s been a movie star, a werewolf, a popular singer, and a dr pepper can
You forgot the winner of the Great All-Nighter! ruclips.net/video/fyXmNfLzj8E/видео.html&pp=ygUQbWlkbmlnaHQgbWFkbmVzcw%3D%3D
And staring in a Seinfeld episode. Don’t forget about that.
I don’t remember posting this comment, ever watching this video, or how I knew that information but I like the song
@@heysiritellmeacoolprofilen7296😂😂
And he can dance
I had the honor of meeting David Naughton just a few weeks ago. What a genuinely great guy.
that's cool as hell
Me too but never knew about this until someone just informed me on Instagram. Wow!!! Always loved my disco and this ain't bad at all.
We had the honor of meeting him at Frightmare in the Falls. He is such a wonderful, friendly, and warm guy!
Gives me a new appreciation for the song, honestly!!
My Mom used to dance with us Girls to this record. We were young Black girls. We were in High School. Mommy is with God, but we made it. Non Stop
Sorry to hear about your Mom,may she r.i.p but always treasure the great memories you got to make with her.i miss my Mom too.
Kinda wish they played this song as the credits started rolling for American Werewolf in London!
No! When he's actually transforming. That would be awesome.
Yes
Why? It’s not him singing! He was just the front man lip syncing for someone else who was too ugly for the camera. He didn’t even sing in the Dr. Pepper commercials! He was just a pretty boy with a big fat toy to wrap up in skintight Lycra pants! Now don’t get me wrong though. I sure as hell wouldn’t have kicked him out of my bed!
Good point! However, I was so in love with this guy that I would have taken him as the werewolf! I also loved him in the dr. Pepper commercials!!!
😂 my brother messaged me one day saying omg the werewolf guy sings this song . And they listen to it on Detroit rock city when they’re cruising down the highway 😂
If i ever become famous, this would be my theme song!
Growing up in the 70s was the best. Great roller skating song.
Amen. I grew up then. Best times ever!
You are so right!
The best days ever 🙌
I totally agree with you! 100%
Bro, no sabía que las patinadoras gozaban de esta canción.
Back in the day when you didn't have cell phones, social media, or the internet. Totally different vibe.
I wouldn't have minded the internet so we could have all this music and movies and books at the touch of a button though.
@@KenMcMunn-bp5xv Yeah, it was a pain waiting on the radio programs to replay to the songs you wanted to hear or having to keep rewinding the cassette tapes. lol
@@damilitantone Yeah. I like cassettes and recording on them but it is less stressful now and easier to find a song.
yeah you were not able to share this song and had to wack to farrah fawcett posters
@@dufunia8313 and Melissa Sue Anderson,Jacklyn Smith,Cheryl Ladd,Jodie Foster,and Kristy McNichol
I am sure glad I lived during that time period. Such a carefree time.
I most certainly have to agree with you
Jack Wolf yes me too agree 100%
I absolutely love this.
Z Polaris Generation Zyklon will have to make up for your carefree degeneracy.
Z Polaris what happened?
Dude was on Broadway. Made one of my favorite soda commercials. Sang one of my favorite Disco songs. Starred in my second favorite movie of all time. And is one of the most likable people.
I’m a fan.
This type of music makes you feel like getting up dance and enjoy life.
I agree Ruben :)
And turn into a werewolf 💀
Absolutely. And David night and didn’t make it for a while, in TV and movies after this song came out. Still makes me feel good.
Yes,it does
Happy rythms
Man I miss the 70s! I was 15 years old when this tune came out! Boy what a big hit it was then! And I still love it!👌😎👍
I was 15 too! :)
@@nicoleganssinger1069I was 11.
I was 4, I remember him in American Werewolf.
Oh man those 70s had so much to offer …. Classic Rock, SOUL , Motown , Pop and Disco. If we could only GO BACK.
And FUNK!
Loved this song and David Naughton. Still listening in 2020.
...Makin' It in 2020!!!
2022
1979 here.
I listen to it every year on my birthday & I love hearing it come up on an old Casey AT40
What can I Say...70s Beautiful music when all colors danced happy together. Only love and high energy Beautiful dance steps, charming, glamour, The joy of life at it's Best. R&B, Soul, Funk, Disco The most Beautiful and lovely music ever.
1979: When music was fun, positive and happy! The year that also brought us YMCA and Don't Stop Till You Get Enough...
Dave Naughton was a awesome talented singer n dancer actor. He had it all bgreat guy too n very good looking. Girls loved him..wish I had his looks
His brother played Angela’s ex husband on who’s the Boss
Canción de mi niñez 1978 tenía 10 años y me gustaba muchísimo Lima Perú
I had a big crush on him, so handsome.
I Love The Disco Era From The Seventie's!!!! Still Very Cool!!!!
Of course you do ! We had cocaine and free sex with no AIDS !!!!
That right, it was a much better decade then today. The 80's was too.
Max Power so true better time have sex too with no guilt of diseases
Better times! Than what we got right now!
no esta mal la cancion
I used this song in teaching aerobics class in the 80s.
I’ve always been a big fan of David Naughton. To me this is a great dance song.
American Bandstand performance? Miss those days. And, David Naughton was a real cutie pie.
This song rang in my head when I was asleep. Now I'm obsessed again. I miss this. Listened to it 5 times
💞😍😔Bellísimo David Naughton, temazo de los ochentas, me fascina está hermosa época, quisiera regresar el tiempo. 😊⭐🙋♀️❣️😘
We had fun, and I miss being on my skates!!!. Yeah this era was a blast!!!
Hes talented.I knew him before the pepper commercials.I was 5 years old and he lived next door to my aunt carrie.He use to act like he was gonna throw me on top of his roof....a good guy.
lucky you!
He sent me a message on Facebook. It was nice that he replied to me.
That's awesome dude! I bet it was sick watching him in a movie and on the radio :D
Meatballs the movie brought me here, I'm 48 years old and I barely noticed this song by David, dang I missed this song this whole time lol, oh well, I'm making it in life and I feel so great, thank you God. And Evelyn, I love you still
D. I. S. C. O for ever
POWER TO DISCO
About 16 years ago, I worked at a CC in Weston, CT and David's brother, Jim, famous for those Cialis commercials, brought his brother up to play golf, very down to earth, at least until the full moon appeared....
It's the music of my childhood, I remember that my older brother came home with his friends to dance it before going to the disco.Beautiful memories : -)
David Naughton. Always loved this guy and this song!
He was in the "I'm a Pepper" commercials. He made "American Werewolf in London" one if my favorite horror movies also "Hot Dog the Movie" one if my favorite skiing movies. The sitcom they made from this song was a bomb, though. I know he's still acting and seen him in different things but this is when he was on top.
I like too. rsrsrsr
Midnight Madness
Also, "my sister sam" tv series w/pam dawber.
And did a few episodes of Seinfeld.
Awesome profile pic. Garthe Knight is still one of my favorite characters.
David is quite the wolf!
I don't (dare) dance, but loved disco music. The bass in this is great. One of my favorites.
I used this song as inspiration as a young 18 year old in 1989 when I was drafted 178th overall by the New York rangers of the NHL .... lotta water under bridge since then
Por años escuche este exito y nunca supe como se llamaba hasta hoy, me encanta
Me sumo a sus palabras, de igual forma ,me encanta esta cancioin
Somos 2 jeje hoy lo supe x un estado de wasap de una amiga ya con base 6
I LOVE DISCO !!
I love this song!!!
David Naughton should of been a bigger star!
I loved him in the Dr. Pepper ads
@WD Harris me too. at age 7, I saw him film one; w. Sylvester & tweety bird, at Pratt institute college (library). also, the same place, that the classic 70's porn movie, Debbie does Dallas, was filmed too. I met him, again, yrs. ago, at a sci fi convention. he didn't want to be there. btw, a little trivia.. his older brother, was the brunette astronaut in the 1970's planet of the apes tv. series.
@@franklinfuentes Cool!
@@dalehoward3704 ;)
I remember I was riding my brand new bike with the California sunshine and wind on my face I remember riding down the street feeling so proud and singing the chorus as loud as I possibly could thinking all of my life problems we had been solved at the age of six or seven LOL
a toe tapper with a positive message...i like it.
...I can still remember this song blaring from the Quasar television set in our wood paneled den once its namesake sitcom ran the opening credits. I was about 5 years old & began elementary school in Sept. 1979.
Why doesn't this have more views. This song is everything in life 💓💖💝❤🥰😍🤩
God, I miss these times. It hurts my heart to hear these songs!
Still a great song! He was so likeable..
Songs like this back then uplifts the soul😊
Love this song,and the Movie Meatballs,saw this when was 12 at theater was fun, memories 🌷🌸🪅🪅🪅🌿💜🌿🌿🌿🌿😇🫶🫶😇
Me fascinaba 1978 y me fascina hoy 2020!!!! 💃👍🎼💯
Oh wow! I had no clue David Naughton was singing this song! In July of 1978 on the 29th, I was born into the world. I miss the innocence of the world and while I don’t remember the 70’s for obvious reasons, hearing good music like this makes me reflect on what little I do remember.
God I wish we could relive the past as though it were today.
Hoy vengo a enterarme que este cantante era el lobo americano en londres. Excelente cancion disco.
I didn't know he was a singer to. I just finished watching his classic werewolf movie that never gets old. It a time classic that is my second favorite.
First time I heard this song was in the dance scene of Meatballs movie... Love It :)
So commercial, so simple, but genius! Right?
You got that, right. And now, for the final act, David turns into a werewolf....
Hahaha! The American Werewolf in London is boogying with his dancing shoes! :D
Another fellow Connecticut talent
I was ten years old when this came out and was just getting into music. I am sure my dancing made my family laugh there ass off. Good Times.
I loved this song so much:) I have the record:) I was 19 in 1978 when this was popular:)
2020 & Still Bumpin' _
Cold Case TV Series Brought me here.
40 years ago today (February 1, 1979), ABC-TV premiered the TV sitcom “Makin’ It” (inspired by the blockbuster film “Saturday Night Fever”). But after 9 episodes, the show was cancelled. But it was the theme song that became popular, and recorded by the show’s co-star David Naughton. It peaked at #5 on the Billboard singles charts. [02/01/2019]
Every time I hear this song it takes me back to Friday and Saturday nights at the skating rink when I was 12 years old. Alot of years ago, but seem like just yesterday at the same time.
I was so in love with him! Sighhhhh 😊
I used to listen to this song on kbig 104.3 los angeles before they made the switch to MyFM during Disco Saturday Nights and I was 16/17. I miss the old kbig program. so much better before. :-(
Haven't heard this song in ages.
No la conocía , me ha encantado no paro de escucharla 🙋😍🤗🇲🇽💗
Legend has it that all the audience members had to kiss his ring at the end.
One of my favorite songs from that time and one of my celebrity crushes
david needs put this out on a cd
I haven't heard this song in so long but it just came to my mind....I read the lyrics for the first time and they are actually REALLY inspirational!
Well, I just signed up to audition for AGT- so I'm gonna sing this song!
Whoa, oh, oh!
Vicki Wagner Yeah, how'd that work out for you?
Kona jinx Well actually I am the 2013 Winner of the "Battle of the Comics" beating out over 120 comedians in LA and won a huge cash prize....I also have my own Award Winning Local talk show in West Hollywood, am the author of two books and working on my third, so I guess my hustle is paying off............
how about you? You negative ass.
@@TheVickiWagnerShow you tell him Vicki! He probably stocks the shelves in a Big Box store
@@bradlafferty6076 what's wrong with that? Someone has to put the items on the shelf for you.
Cómo te fue en esa audición? Interpretaste esta misma canción?
Should have let him dance more in this vid- this guy could dance really good
Este chico es el hombre lobo en Londres
Q hermoso 😍 me encanta su música disco y esa voz
Si es un lobo americano en los Londres , su hermano también es actor actuó en el planeta de los simios serie
THE MUSIC DISCO....NEVER DIE, me encantó esa epoca, recuerdo haber toneado esta canción, gracias a la magia del GGOGLE, recién el 2015 pude ver el video...nunca es tarde
I thought he reminded me of the character in "American Werewolf In London".After reading these comments I am saying no wonder he reminded me of that character from that movie,he really was.Love this song.
Garland English Yup, same guy!
I love this video and this song it is so awesome and it is one of the classics of all time
Great song l love it.
I'm pretty sure I still have this 45 from when I was a kid. so funny when you're looking up references for a project and you come across stuff like this. =)
M E A T B A L L S THE MOVIE.
This song is so bad it’s perfect ... and it will be stuck in my head all day! I remember when it came out. I was a kid.
muy buena rola, con buen ritmo de esos años
He is so handsome 1 reason people should not age he's wonderful
jerry cannonmoore hey handsomeeeeeee
I learned how to do a front handspring on a cement floor and nailed it! It was my POWER SONG!..............It still is.........I love Mr. Dr. Pepper!
So does Johnny Five.
This song has a cool backstory! Back in the day, when I was a young assistant engineer working with Dino Fekaris on an album for disco legend Gloria Gaynor, he shared a great story with me.
The year before Makin' It came out, Dino was living in a tiny apartment in LA. He was so determined for success that he made a sign for his wall that declared: "This coming year's gonna be my year!"
His positive outlook paid off! That very phrase ended up in the song - listen closely, and you'll hear it.
jamais entendu, je ne connaissais pas / Genial parfait ! j'adore
Great awesome lyrics too 🌸🌷🌿😇🌿💞💞🪅🪅💐😇
Absolute brilliant classic!!!
this song still slaps in 2022. i met David a few months back. what a nice guy !
Another famous line from David Naughton......."I'm sorry I called you a walking meatloaf Jack". Did we all know this guy played "David" in the 1981 movie "The American Wherewolf In London"?
I was shocked because i watched Meatballs (my fave Bill Murray film) and he dances to this song lol i always loved the song and my dad knew i had seen American Werewolf in London and when he realised i didn't know who sang it he said that freaking line!!! XD XD
My HS twirling team played this on repeat all the way from AZ to TX for camp summer of ‘79. Our poor coach/chauffeur 😢
Had to find it.. oh the memories.. April 12.. 2022 Love it!
Mi juventud realmente inolvidable.
LOVE this!
Disco Era was so fun!
Through the 80s--great music!
What wonderful memories this song brings to me😀
Thanks for the memories David! I danced to this song year end in grade school back in 78’. What an amazing time!
love this song so much
Makin' It By David Naughton
He was a great Werewolf too!
