I'm 50 now. This song is bringing tears to my eyes. Flooding me with memories. I miss that era of my life. All of my family was still alive, things were way better in this world. Beautiful song.
Not taking anything away from the singing, but that piano is the star of the show. I can listen to that melody play for another 10 minutes. So simple, yet so sweet.
Who remember cassette players. I couldn’t wait for this to come on radio to record !! Don’t forget to have the paper in the corners of the cassette when re-recording !!
Mercury i think died of diabetes or heart disease, TC Lundy , the lead singer , died of ALS and Trisco died of leukemia. I lived in Staten Is, I saw them a lot growing up the good and the bad. But songs still beautiful
One of those songs that immediately takes you back in time to when things were so much more simple and carefree. When music was about peace, love and happiness. 1985 was a good year
Well, the world was not so simple and carefree, there was a lot of crime around already, aids, a hole in the ozon layer which scared the shit out of people, the cold war etc. etc...But the music was great, thats true :-)
54 year old woman here reading two comments before my eyes filled up with tears-had to take a break so I didn’t ruin my makeup🥹. This song is an indelible part of my heart, and one of the few that aren’t connected to any specific person or memory, it’s just THAT good. So beautiful and harmonic and testament to the kind of love that we should be celebrating in music. It’s good for the soul. Top 15 all time fave songs.
It was, there were alot of hidden gems that never had the popularity it deserved, that's why researching music that's never been heard of from that era is always a great adventure.
Kids take notes........... No autotune, No profanity, No degrading women, No mention of money, sex or drugs. This was real music!!! These were REAL ARTISTS.
Amen real. I'm turning 49 April 17 and this is our prime music without the swearing. Now I cuss like a sailor but there's a time to use that and this is not the time
Amen, AMEN!!! I was in 5th grade when this song came out, and I knew I wanted this song played at my wedding!! Why can't we sing songs like this anymore??
This is one of the most beautiful slow jams ever created. Every time I listen to it I just get put in an ethereal mood. Nostalgia, bliss, happiness, calm. Absolutely perfect song
@@tanyasmith4341 The Force MDs Story is just so HEARTBREAKING and unbelievably SAD. EVERY Decade seems to have a Singing Group filled with absolute Drama and TRAGEDY, the 60s had The Temptations, The 70s had Heatwave, the 80s Had Force MDs, 90s had Hi-Five and 2000s had Pantera(R.I.P. Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul). The Force MDs have very few living Members left, the Main Ones have already Tragically Passed on.
Alot of people don't know this, but these guys were special. They sung and got this song right in just 2 hours. Yes, only 2 hours. The version you hear right now was done in 2 hours. Some singers take weeks to perfect a song. These guys got it right in 2 freaking hours. Amazing.
Indeed, this is why the world is so messed up. People have forgotten the universal language of tenderness and slow love. Everything is too fast-now-now-NOW!
I am 47...I used to stay up at night and record songs on the radio..The Quiet Storm...this song was always one that was in rotation. Forever a beautiful classic❤

@@CarRobbinwow! I grew up and moulded my creative career from groups and songs like this one...all the way from Africa and guess what..I just turned 50..8/7/2023
This is when men made songs about how much they loved their women. I'm glad I was around to experience this era. We need more songs like this now. RIP love songs if the 80's.
Mid 80s and you are at a high school dance and they drop this… that crush was standing right in front of you and his song gave you the courage to slow dace with her… you were nervous as hell but the world stopped when that crescendo comes in at 2:55. It was pure magic. Miss the 80s forever
QUIET STORM!! I remember being in elementary school, going to bed with the radio on and always seemingly waking up and this would be on. I would lay there and listen and fall right back to sleep with ease. This joint hits different at night with the window open and the fan on !!
@@Mindsaw lmao the fan adds the sound of calmness and that breeze feels great. Thats history right there my friend. I wish i grew up in NYC in the 80s and 90s..that vibe had to be amazing.

I'm a 49 year old white man and I have a confession. Although, I'd rarely admit this, most Boy Band hits from the 1970s through the 00s are fun to listen to. There, I said it.
Guys generally respected the girls on their own block-because that was their crews sisters and cousins. If a guy dogged a *nice* girl? Woo is he. You had to leave your neighborhood to act stupid.
Tears when TC hits those notes, knowing he lost his voice before he passed, makes my heart hurt 🙏. RIP to all the brothers, you blessed my life with your voices, surely this is what heaven sounds like 🙏
@@talknheadz I’d like to know how a man feels about me. Still searching for my 80’s, 90’s R&B kind of love. At 43 years old I believe it can still happen.
First time I listened to this, I started bawling my eyes out because the vocals and harmony are so beautiful. This is truly what a love song should feel and sound like.

Brings back fond memories, huh? Similar aged group( Gen X I presume) and all these comments from similar aged people....and memories of prom night etc...and this song
I’m 39 and remember & love this song. Still one of my favs , just beautiful. RIP to all the group members no longer here, they all left the world too soon. Stevie D is the only OG member left 🫶🏼
Oh my God it hurts my heart so bad to know that the lead singer of this group is gone...And has been gone since the mid to late 90s...He is soo adorable and his voice...I believe his voice is in the top 5 of the greatest falsetto voices to ever sing a song...We miss you and love you TC..As well as Nelson...You both are gone but never ever will you be forgotten.. Sleep in heavenly peace
I’m SO GLAD my youth was filled with this level of sweetness. I remember being courted, summer walks, lol, smelling like “outside”. Street lights, cicadas in the background and being pushed on the swings by my high school sweetheart in the playground at dusk. Whew…. Wow.
🌛★ Stella ★🌜 it really is! I was shazaming some songs and this one popped up. So I decided to listen to it and I recognized the melody right of the bat, but never listened to the entire song. And I’m 21 so that says a lot 😂
Heading into 2023 and this masterpiece of a song is still one of my favorite, daily jams. This song will forever live on, generation after generation ❤️
I remember when this song came out ( I think it was 1985) and it still gives me goosebumps. I am child of the 70's and the 80's we had the best music. The work of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
I remember my first time hearing it I was about three or four years old. My mom and dad used to play it a lot and they were the ones that got me turned on to those type of music I love it I was born in '82 and I still remember a lot of the hits from the '80s and these guys here were legendary.
Classic Rock white guy here. This tune hooked me from the moment I heard it. I know a few of these dudes have passed over the years but Force Mds will live on forever!
I'm listening to this song and my eyes are filled with tears, this was my one of my sister's favorite songs, sadly she passed on 27.8.2021, may she R.I.P. Beautiful song
I tell you..The lead singer got one of the most beautiful voices that I've ever heard. Wow! Absolutely beautiful. My brother , back in the day , he and his friends would do this , they sung the slow jams on street corners and this reminds me of them.. Music for the soul. Soo relaxing and soothing. ❤
And the 90's and the 2000's. They are still dominating. I just found out that they wrote "No More Drama" for Mary J Blige. As soon as I think that I am familiar with their catalog, I find another song.
One of those songs you hear playing at low volume in the middle of the night that soothes the soul and makes you happy to be alive as you softly fall back to sleep next to the one you love. You been there?
Friends and I got stuck in the car during a heavy downpour. My friend put in her mixtape and this song came on and we all started singing. I swear we all had the best voices and harmonies going on or maybe not. Maybe we were just happy and this song brought it out of us. GOOD TIMES!!!!
If angels really sing, this song is what I think they'd sound like. Everything about this song is just about perfect - the orchestration, the lyrics and the harmonies. Stunning.
I'm 50 now. This song is bringing tears to my eyes. Flooding me with memories. I miss that era of my life. All of my family was still alive, things were way better in this world. Beautiful song.
Don't go there..I said the same thing😥
❤❤❤❤
Amen
I sympathize with you on everything you said. Me too! I'm 53 and this song was definitely a favorite of mine and brings back so many memories.
I was thinking the same thing before I read your comment.

Oh my God it hurts my heart so bad to know that the lead singer of this group is gone...And has been gone since the mid to late 90s...He is soo adorable and his voice...I believe his voice is in the top 5 of the greatest falsetto voices to ever sing a song...We miss you and love you TC..As well as Nelson...You both are gone but never ever will you be forgotten.. Sleep in heavenly peace
Amen
Amen. He will never be forgotten.
The 80's made some real good music
Criticize by Alexander O'Neal is the same style as this, the Jam and Lewis sound.
Born in 71. 80's were more MAGICAL than RUclips could ever show.
Word up
This is one of those songs that is absolutely perfect and will forever stand the test of time...
😢omg how can these days ever come back.....love wuz love
When music made you wanna be in love!!!
Truth Indeed
I'm in at 12:25 am thinking of a person.
Another 80s Classic
His voice was so beautiful so sad he got ALS and passed at 34, so young. I would've loved to hear more from him.
That just ruins my day, I didn’t know that ;(
Awwww i did not know that. How tragic
Rip sad to hear that he died 😢💔
Oh my God, I had no idea that he passed! Shit hearing that kinda ruined my day, so sad! RIP ♥️
That's a bummer! I always thought God took the good ones young. His way of taking us out of our misery!🙏😀
Forever love the 80's, one of the greatest decade's for music, it's just not like it used to be back then with good quality music ❤
One of the most powerful songs
I've ever heard in my life.
U are so right!!
Nostalgic.. I'm having a Flashback .... making miss me miss this era.
most definitely
Thanks Force MD's. I don't think y'all will ever understand how meaningful this song is even now in 2022!
Maybe even more so now…
2023❤❤❤❤❤
This song is so meaningful that's right
True dat sister
I’m SO GLAD my youth was filled with this level of sweetness. I remember being courted, summer walks, lol, smelling like “outside”. Street lights, cicadas in the background and being pushed on the swings by my high school sweetheart in the playground at dusk. Whew…. Wow.
Back When you would wait up just to record a song off the radio to add to your mixtape cassette ❤❤❤
I still have some my mixtapes.
CYNTHIA....REAL TALK...I.VE STILL GOT SOME MIX TAPES.

Craziiiiiiiii….I used to dis Witt rnb and hip hop….💯♨️💎….muzic wuz so pure bak den….bigg faxx…💯♨️💎
This has to be one of the sweetest songs ever recorded. Truly tender.
🎤😇💎😍💅
It’s a beauty!
Written and recorded by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Including janet jacksons come back to me
can this be our wedding song Michelle?
Bone thugs n harmony. These are the days of our lives. I knew this beat sounded familiar.
One of the most distinctive songs ever
Truly that.
🌛★ Stella ★🌜 it really is! I was shazaming some songs and this one popped up. So I decided to listen to it and I recognized the melody right of the bat, but never listened to the entire song. And I’m 21 so that says a lot 😂
Heading into 2023 and this masterpiece of a song is still one of my favorite, daily jams. This song will forever live on, generation after generation ❤️
Melody, hook, vocals, harmonies...perfection.
Plus they can move.
@@YaoEspirito yes
💕💕💕💕🔥
They'll never be anytime better than the 80's!!
I remember when this song came out ( I think it was 1985) and it still gives me goosebumps. I am child of the 70's and the 80's we had the best music. The work of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
How old were you
@@joejones8454 my guess is early 50's late 40's I know I was 8 or 9 when this cane out I remember watching video music box in NYC Ralph McDaniels
SUMMER 1986
I remember my first time hearing it I was about three or four years old. My mom and dad used to play it a lot and they were the ones that got me turned on to those type of music I love it I was born in '82 and I still remember a lot of the hits from the '80s and these guys here were legendary.
Classic Rock white guy here. This tune hooked me from the moment I heard it. I know a few of these dudes have passed over the years but Force Mds will live on forever!
I'm listening to this song and my eyes are filled with tears, this was my one of my sister's favorite songs, sadly she passed on 27.8.2021, may she R.I.P.
Beautiful song
My sincerest condolences 💐
My condolences ❤ she smiled as u cried she’s happy that ur thinking of her my allah be with you both ameen
I'm so sorry for your loss. One day at a time.
@@FormerADTMan thankyou
@@allenalexander1568 thankyou....ameen
I tell you..The lead singer got one of the most beautiful voices that I've ever heard. Wow!
Absolutely beautiful.
My brother , back in the day , he and his friends would do this , they sung the slow jams on street corners and this reminds me of them..
Music for the soul.
Soo relaxing and soothing. ❤
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis dominated The 80’s.❤
And the 90's and the 2000's. They are still dominating. I just found out that they wrote "No More Drama" for Mary J Blige. As soon as I think that I am familiar with their catalog, I find another song.
Jimmy "Jam" Harris and Terry Lewis are two of my favorite composer/producers of all time.
I love the simplicity of this song. Great lyrics. Sweet voices. A piano. Classic!!
was just 18 back then. a lot of memories, simple carefree with mom and dad beside me, now at 56.. all alone.
I know exactly what you mean loss my dad November 19th 2023 he was all I had 😢😢😢😢
I thought I was by myself I understand now that there are many who fill the same way.
I'm a 62 yr old man, and still loving this song.
One of those songs you hear playing at low volume in the middle of the night that soothes the soul and makes you happy to be alive as you softly fall back to sleep next to the one you love. You been there?
I’m still there. 11 years later. No matter the ups and down, we never go to bed mad and keep God first. Always 💕
Slow jams on the Quiet Storm
WBLS 105.5 FM. NYC.
What an amazing song from my generation..
One of the sweetest, most empassioned, underrated, gentle romance tunes ever made! Beautiful!
Friends and I got stuck in the car during a heavy downpour. My friend put in her mixtape and this song came on and we all started singing. I swear we all had the best voices and harmonies going on or maybe not. Maybe we were just happy and this song brought it out of us. GOOD TIMES!!!!
If angels really sing, this song is what I think they'd sound like. Everything about this song is just about perfect - the orchestration, the lyrics and the harmonies. Stunning.
This song, Janet's "Come Back to Me", Human League's "Human", and New Edition's "Can You Stand the Rain" have those iconic Jam & Lewis piano chords. 😊
Facts
oh you know good music I see
You are seriously following music
good taste! I have those songs on a playlist
Also Look Into My Eyez by Bone Thugs N Harmony. That's the song I think of when I hear this.
when men were men..had respect for women..had their pants above their knees and romantic as hell.. Lord please bring back these days
Amen to that!
So true, nobody cussing, shooting, smoking dope. Just pure talent on display!
@@Genkimark true
@@Genkimark shut up lmao all of that happened in the 90s. Get out your fantasy land you loser.
Right???
