To be honest, I only recognize "Just an Illusion" because it was played on the end credits of the 1986 film, "F/X", starring Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy!
@R. Harms The song came out in 1982, when I was still in high school in the U.S. It's weird that I never heard it on the radio, although it was very popular in other countries, especially the U.K. But I do remember "F/X" being aired almost all of the time on HBO and it being rented all of the time when I was serving in the Marine Corps, mid 80's to early 90's.
@mickwolf1077 agreed. I've been looking for it on Spotify for years. Needs to be on there to avoid being lost forever, or someone to make a viral tiktok sampling it.
Watched "Shottas", starring Ky-mani Marley, went to wikipedia to read about his relation to Bob, saw he did a song with my favorite R&B group of all time "PM Dawn" and I find this.
Bro I’m 39years old this song remind me the best years of my life time fly it’s crazy anyway my 10years son will jam on it like her father or he will be kicked out from home .
I know Tony Swain, one of the writers of the original "Just An Illusion" and the man who played the bass line. We were talking about this song and he said they should have given him a call and he'd have gone to the session and played it for them as it would have cost them less than the sampling fee.
I love that song. That song is on the Senseless soundtrack. I think this is my favorite on the Senseless soundtrack and I will get it on Amazon sometime.
Really?! That's amazing!! You guys know good music over there. This song was grossly underrated here. It got just a few weeks of airplay, but enough for me to fall in love with it.
Amazing to see how pretty much all the songs that sampled Imagination's Just an Illusion kick ass. Also check The Pharcyde's Illusions, it's a must-hear.
Be is great always have a space in my heart and a seat beside me in front of our father. just wish he didnt stop rapping rap need an etherial rap artist in the game with a metaphysical mind set . long live attrell cordes
One of the best underrated songs of all time. It is the best produced rap song ever.
I completely agree!!
Absolutely, killer first verse😁
I love how you can randomly remember a word or line from an old song and RUclips will somehow always find it for you!
2020 still pumping it up here in Sydney Australia 🔥🔥🔥
And now still pumping it in 2021 in Australia ✊🏽✊🏽
Hell yeah
yea hard what a song
✌️
2022 in Canberra Australia 🎧
They sampled "just an illusion" by imagination from 1982 imagination were one of the most underrated bands of all time
well yeah we fucking know

I thought I knew most 80’s songs, but I like this version a lot more.
@@rddav1 ironically FX is much more obscure than the song JUST AN ILLUSION (which was a radio hit)
