Bought KC&The Sunshine Band Greatest Hits CD.Put my older sister(61 yrs. old)in my pickup truck after a Doctors appointment for her Heart and Lung transplant surgery.I put KC in the CD player,and we listened and sang KC all the way home.I love this band.
Gosh people who were in their 20s when this song came out are now in their 60s!! The world has changed so much since then. As a non American, I see how optimistic American media was back then; it's so self-hating today.
Can we bring back this music I feel the world needs it now. I didnt grow up in this era but it’s always been my favourite type and I listen to it daily. We need to bring it back!
Richard Osias was the producer for KC and the Sunshine Band. He named 2 of his daughters Alexandra with different middle names, 1 played the Water Muse probably at 6 years old while filming this video, the other played one of the captives. It's great to see family involvement in this video. This might be the only concept video KC and the Osias family ever did. RIP Richard Osias
Nice info. Thank-you from me as well. Any idea what the video was meant to convey? On first blush, he is saved by the Water Sprite, finds an opulent home, saved again by the Water Sprite, rescues some captves... but then takes them to the netherworld?!?!?
Remember watching this video on NBC's Friday Night Videos back in 1984. Seeing it brings back a lot of great memories. Having recently been successful in a battle with melanoma (cancer), words cannot express how much I am able to enjoy this video/song being cancer-free. Thank you for sharing this video.
Pawpaw from nature's sunshine called cell reg kills cancer tumors and growths faster than hell. Way more effective then chemo without harm to good cells. Cancer regime 1. Kill cancer, paw paw, black walnut, red clover, cats claw herb. 2. Clean body every few days with good herbs, dandelion, milk thistle, yellow duck etc. Booste immune with immunity herbs astragalus, echinacea goldenseal, oil of oregano, ginger, cinnemon etc. I've see it work like magic. See Jerry McLaughlin Purdue univ. Lectures on paw paw.
God what a good memory. Thank you for showing the video. I've heard the song a million times but never the video. Love you so much KC and the Sunshine Band. LOVE
Just seen an advert on TV and it's taken me back to being a very young kid in the 80's hearing this for the first time. I've loved the song ever since. In fact I'm going to put it on my playlist and listen to it when I'm feeling down, to remind me to give up feeling sorry for myself and knowing that I'm damn lucky there are so many people I'm love by. I think many of us can forget that sometimes and music is such an enormous outlet for reigniting positivity and definitely joy. Particularly KC and the Sunshine band with this song.
MR. BIGGS and Lucy Jackson. Same here too. My high school days and my early time in the Army was filled with KC and the Sunshine Band. I always loved their music but I never knew there was a music video to this great song.
That’s because in America, “Give It Up” was released as a single independently by K.C. himself almost a year after it first had become a hit outside America after KC’s record label had refused to promote the song there as a single. This music video was made for the American market.
@Ephesians 5:11: This track is from 1982, thus 80's but you are right we had good music in the 70's too. Anything up until 2016 I suppose although there was a brief drop in the 2004 mark but after 2016 its been crap. But, the best era's for music are the 60's, 70's and 80's.
It's astounding that a "disco" artist from the mid-to-late '70's could still somehow come up with a hit in 1983, without making a single change in their sound, despite the total backlash against disco. Even the Bee Gees or Donna Summer couldn't do this. This is as "disco" in 1983 as anything KC did in the seventies, and yet still it made it to #18 in the Billboard chart.
Having this be a hit single wasn’t easy. It was initially released only in Holland as the third single there, where disco was still big, then it slowly became popular internationally. Even after it became a huge hit in Britain, KC’s record label at the time had still felt it wasn’t worth releasing and promoting in America, so he bought back the master rights to the song and released it himself as a single on his own independent record label he started.
I remember seeing this video about a year after the song came out. I was a little kid and had no idea who KC or the Sunshine Band were. I do remember thinking, "What am I watching?" But I also remember I liked the song, so I didn't change the channel. That was life in the early '80s for ya.
Yes Indeed 💯 KC was the Man in the 70's & used to Roller Skate to all of his Awesome tunes. He was in a Really bad auto accident & took 5 years off if music & then he recovered & pumped out this Awesome tune in 1983, just in time for my senior year🎵🎶🩵💙👏👏👏😁
Most music videos I have seen barely make any sense. Have you seen many videos from this millennium? Most aren't quite as extreme in their oddness as this classic but they are usually random nonsense or younger types dancing like goof bags in a kind of look at me style with not even a hint of theme or creative drive like this confusing, mystifying classic. First time I saw this clip was 2 days ago and after over 35 years of being familiar with the song my mind is still blown how they came up with this! One of those mysterious pieces of art which I wish I never understand the idea of the clip but just enjoy its wacky fun.

This hit from KC and The Sunshine Band was the 499th #1 song in the United Kingdom of the Rock Era. I am a resident of South Carolina. I have never seen them in person, but I do have a memory of them. It was on a Sunday afternoon in August 1977 that they appeared at the Carowinds Amusement Park Paladium on the border of NC/SC near Charlotte. Traffic was backed up I-77 and I-85 for miles. They finally had to shut the park to the rest of the public because they were at full capacity. Radio stations like WBT (1110 AM) were breaking in to tell people to just turn around and go back home.
this song makes me realise that life is better when l listen to this song its brilliant and does help me with depression its so true thanks to kc and Sunshine' band brilliant song
if there is one that can help with anything including depression. His name is God=Lord Jesus Christ. He can also save us from our sins if we willingly ask Him. John 8:24 Jesus the Light of the World …23Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 24That is why I told you that you would die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.” 25“Who are You?” they asked. “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning,” Jesus replied.… Exodus 3:14 God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM"; and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'" John 8:58 "Truly, truly, I tell you," Jesus declared, "before Abraham was born, I am!" John 14:14 The Way, the Truth, and the Life …13And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it. 15If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.…
I was vacationing at Hampton Beach New Hampshire in 99 or 2000 and kc was playing at the casino ballroom on the next street over. It wasn't my cup of tea prior to hearing them but sounded great and has always stuck with me.
I love this song, and this is the first time I saw this video. This looks like the producers for cats got drunk, and had to recreate the Mos Eisley cantina scene without having watched Star Wars 😂
Wow -- I didn't even know there was a theatrical video for this song until this moment! I grew up on & love KC & The Sunshine Band. But, it was weird... so that might explain not seeing it.
That’s because this was made for the American market. Despite being an international hit, KC’s previous record label had refused to release “Give It Up” as a single in America, so he bought back the rights to the master recording. KC released “Give It Up” as a single in America in 1984 on his own independent record label and financed the music video himself, with the intent of having it air on MTV.
So underrated. Should have jump started KC back into the spotlight. If this was the lead single. i bet the 80s would have been kinder to the singles list for KC. Instead we got Huey Lewis.
The last disco hit. Ever. In mankind. Give it up. Baby, give it up. God bless disco.KC gave disco life well beyond it was designed for. God bless you Harry Wayne Casey
Ah...back in the day when videos had nothing to do with the song itself and didn't even make any sense for the most part. 😂 But it's worth going through just to hear this wonderful, delightful R&B/Pop song which you never really hear anymore. "Give It Up" actually became one of KC's best and most beloved songs. His songs always had a naïve innocence about them that played well and provided some much needed light entertainment. Good ol' Harry Casey from St Louis, Missouri. Love him. ❤
I remember this song well, I mean instant love. I was babysitting at the time and heard it for the first time when it come on the radio. I was on the phone with my friend's ex-boyfriend, in the kitchen, just chit-chatting (typical babysitter) REALLY, and so I have a memory attached to it. That's what makes it so special. Plus, I love this video. x
Watching the Dolphins - Bills game, and the audio guy just went to commercial with this song, which is brilliant considering that KC is from Miami. Had to listen to the whole thing.
Man my grandma loves this song back in the dayz when she was married to my grandpa and she will tell me you know what my favorite song is back in the days and I will say no and she said baby don't give it up
J.B. By this time, music videos were becoming more of a thing, especially in America. But it’s obvious that this music video was influenced by Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” music video that was very popular at the time.
Peaked at number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1984. Their 14th and, as of this moment, final US top 40 hit. They also had five US number one singles and have sold more than 125 million albums worldwide.
This song peaked at No. 18 on the Hot 100 this week 40 years ago, the week ending St. Patrick’s Day, 3/17/84. It was KC’s first top 20 hit since he’d reached No. 2 with Teri DeSario on the duet “Yes, I’m Ready” four years earlier. His single just before that one was KC & the Sunshine Band’s “Please Don’t Go,” the group’s fifth and final No. 1 hit.
Im 51. And growing up I never liked this song ! I thought it was just a song for an Old Navy commercial or something. I knew it was an old song and forever I thought this song came out in like 1979. But one night about 10 years ago I came across this video and realized this song was released in 84/85. I don't know if that swayed my emotions cause I always considered this a 70's disco jam - but when I realized it was actually a mid 80's pop song something just clicked and now I recognize this song as one of my top 100 songs of all time that I compromised on my own. Comes it at #93. But still an all time favorite
I am an aerospace engineer and yesterday I was at home in my house at Lido di Ostia and I watch the movie The Kingman Secret Service and in the final scene of this movie there is this song of the KC & the Sunshine Band. Great song!!! 🌞🌞🌞❤️
I first watched this amazing video on Night Tracks on Superstation TBS long ago and was literally blown away by how it looked. This is one of the coolest music videos that I saw on TV while growing up. Yes, those were the good old days. Music of the era never sounded so better.
Lasse 1964 In the rest of the world, the single had already come out a year earlier in 1983. It wasn’t released in America until almost a year later, because K.C.’s previous record label that the song had been first recorded for had refused to put it out as a single in America, so he started his own label to put it out in America and the album it was on, K.C. Ten, hence why this music video was made, to help in the promotion process.
thanks the kingsman for giving a mixtape without reason, now i well know why, therefore i can fight the world's enemy with my knife shoes, it gives me sort of breaking dance
If you listen to the rhythms, riffs, and percussion fills on the instrumental track, you can hear it foreshadowing Paul Simon's "Graceland" album, which came out a couple years later. Some definite similarities between "Give It Up" and "You Can Call Me Al."
I'm totally obsessed with this band. Been playing this song in particular for the last month straight. My kids are ready to kill me, but I don't care, love this song. Reminds me of when I was a kid in the 70's and 80's!
I absolutely love this song, I'm 41 and this was my first ever record i bought on 7 inch vinyl, i couldn't wait to get home from town to put it on the record player, good times
@@JP_UK_44 yeah of course, walked myself down to Woolworths, smashed my piggy bank open and counted my 2 and 1 p coins, walked back home, got the boys round and then danced the night away to K.C and his band of sunshine 🌞

I bet she loved that.
@@ramenking4424 nice choice.
This time in 1984, this pop legendary band decided to "Give It Up" for all music lovers. Their songs will never fade.
1983 hit in the UK, number one for 3 weeks in August that year.
1983!!
Gosh people who were in their 20s when this song came out are now in their 60s!!
The world has changed so much since then.
As a non American, I see how optimistic American media was back then; it's so self-hating today.

Certainly.....it's got that fantastic best and rhythm
I'm all in favor of it!
Eso son tiempos que jamás volverán.
Nostalgia
I've always loved this song and loads of other 80s music, I'm glad to see a lot of people do, I thought it was just me for ages, lol.
Weird video but so early 80’s. Bands had that o make interesting videos for MTV. Hysterical.
Still a phenomenal song, never gets old, thanks for sharing.
Problaby the last hit disco song before the genra became toxic
Thank you, Kingsmen.

Yep, disco never dies
I always grew up watching the stage version of this song. Had no idea that a music video ever existed. First time watching it.

Super Great Memories From Early 1984! The 80s Ruled!!!
He didn't get the recognition he deserved. He was (and still is) a real star, with huge talent and happy and cool music. It's not too late ...
Born in 92....😂 how do i like this music better than the music i grew up listening to?
Exactly 😅, I was born 3 weeks ago how do I like this music more than the silly music of today?
Can't beat the music of the 70's. Rock, disco, soul, pop. There was so much variety and talent.
@Ephesians 5:11: This track is from 1982, thus 80's but you are right we had good music in the 70's too. Anything up until 2016 I suppose although there was a brief drop in the 2004 mark but after 2016 its been crap. But, the best era's for music are the 60's, 70's and 80's.
This is the 80's, but your comment is still true
i was one of those assholes that hated disco back in the 70"s now I realize how great the music really was.

It's astounding that a "disco" artist from the mid-to-late '70's could still somehow come up with a hit in 1983, without making a single change in their sound, despite the total backlash against disco.

To me, it takes his classic sound and updates it with early to mid 80s production, making it fit in with the pop/dance music scene of the day.
Madonna’s music was pretty damn disco even if that label wasn’t being used anymore.
It goes to show you that when a
musical trend ends, you're always going to have holdovers.
I remember seeing this video about a year after the song came out.
I was a little kid and had no idea who KC or the Sunshine Band were.
I do remember thinking, "What am I watching?"
But I also remember I liked the song, so I didn't change the channel.
That was life in the early '80s for ya.
I'm shining, too. Ever grateful, KC & the Sunshine Band.
Yes Indeed 💯 KC was the Man in the 70's & used to Roller Skate to all of his Awesome tunes. He was in a Really bad auto accident & took 5 years off if music & then he recovered & pumped out this Awesome tune in 1983, just in time for my senior year🎵🎶🩵💙👏👏👏😁

I discovered this song a few days ago listening it on the radio. ^^
Adoro essa música!!! Ate meu astral melhora 😊
I was born in the early 70's and I treasure every moment.
Me too 1972!
Been dancing to K.C for a while. Starting in 1977, never gets old. Hopefully neither will I
Back in the day when there were good dance tunes in the charts.
Absolutely !!!
@What Not To Do At a Stoplight yup we will realize how many good songs we had in 20 years

I don't agree with you, today's music is shit especially "rap" music. I don't know what people find anything good about it
Oh happy nights on the disco floor with KC at their best.. hot, smoky atmosphere, sozzled and lovin' it! Sigh... those were the days...

I'm a child of the 80s and didn't hear this song until a couple of months ago. Mind blowing. Great song.
This is the time when bands actually played instruments and never sampled nobody else's music
Wrong. Music has always been stolen and sampled from other cultures
Call me crazy but I find this video more satisfactory that plenty of multi million dollars science fiction movio.
Probably because it’s a simple short story with beginning, middle and end, and not a wannabe franchise with a bajillion sequels.
The last disco hit. Ever. In mankind. Give it up. Baby, give it up. God bless disco.KC gave disco life well beyond it was designed for. God bless you Harry Wayne Casey

Awesome tune and yes Kingsman movie definitely got it recognized again. I love it what can I say and so catchy!
I've never seen it
Click here if you were a dancin' fool back in the day! Thanks for posting this K.C.!
This was his last hit in 1983. It was like a comeback for him. He hadnt had a hit song in a few years. I never knew there was a video for it.
This song came out in August 1982. Remember it at Myrtle Beach getting played over and over again on juke box.
Oh to be 17 again.

Gabriel O Pensador sampleou os metais da intro na música Tô Vazando. Ouvi agora essa no rádio e reconheci o sample na hora. Gosto demais das duas!
SO A TITULO DE INFORMACAO , ESSA MUSICA FOI LANCADA NO BRASIL EM 1978 . EPOCA DA DISCOTECA
Peaked at number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1984. Their 14th and, as of this moment, final US top 40 hit. They also had five US number one singles and have sold more than 125 million albums worldwide.
It was No.1 in the UK for 3 weeks in the summer of 1983.
Essa música toca na vinheta da transamérica sp , kkkkk demorou mais achei
A classic like this never goes out of fashion.loved the eighties.would go back in an instant.gary73.
The best song to go to Las Vegas for the night
This song peaked at No. 18 on the Hot 100 this week 40 years ago, the week ending St. Patrick’s Day, 3/17/84.
It was KC’s first top 20 hit since he’d reached No. 2 with Teri DeSario on the duet “Yes, I’m Ready” four years earlier. His single just before that one was KC & the Sunshine Band’s “Please Don’t Go,” the group’s fifth and final No. 1 hit.
Im 51. And growing up I never liked this song ! I thought it was just a song for an Old Navy commercial or something. I knew it was an old song and forever I thought this song came out in like 1979. But one night about 10 years ago I came across this video and realized this song was released in 84/85. I don't know if that swayed my emotions cause I always considered this a 70's disco jam - but when I realized it was actually a mid 80's pop song something just clicked and now I recognize this song as one of my top 100 songs of all time that I compromised on my own. Comes it at #93. But still an all time favorite
I'm 51 and have always loved this song since it debuted in early 1984! I wasn't quite 11 years old yet!
Fun Fact. My dad is the big guy in the video with the red chains across his chest..lol
Damn, what a body
Wow ur Dad is or was jacked! I bet this video is early 80s
HAHAHA🎉🎉🎉🎉LOVE IT!!!!
For the time he was huge. Was he in any other films?
80s music will never be anything like it again... EVER
Thank god...synth hell
KC AND THE ORIGINAL SUNSHINE BAND BROUGHT ME HERE TO 2022 NOW HEADED TO MIAMI TO WATCH KC IN CONCERT
Love these music videos from the early days of MTV. They were really experimentative and willing to take chances.
Alguém ouvindo está música espetacular
Em 2022.
I love this music, My boyfriend and I are going to see them Sept. 20th, 2023 at The TN. Valley Fair 🎉🙂
Kingsman: The Secret Service BROUGHT US HERE.
I just typed give on RUclips and this song appeared out of the blue! Didn't knew the band but as a kid I surely have listened to it.
I am an aerospace engineer and yesterday I was at home in my house at Lido di Ostia and I watch the movie The Kingman Secret Service and in the final scene of this movie there is this song of the KC & the Sunshine Band. Great song!!! 🌞🌞🌞❤️
I first watched this amazing video on Night Tracks on Superstation TBS long ago and was literally blown away by how it looked. This is one of the coolest music videos that I saw on TV while growing up. Yes, those were the good old days. Music of the era never sounded so better.
Absolutely correct my dear friend and brother
Lots of good times back in the 80's listening to kc love them time's!!!
70s kick ass everyone was kind and we saw no color KC rocks!
Masterpiece timeless
Listening right na na na na na na na na na na now.
I so loved this video back in the day. I miss those times [As all old people say].🎶
Listening in 2023. Still great.
οne of my favorite song from amazing year of 1984....when all the planet dancing with that beautiful song!
Lasse 1964 In the rest of the world, the single had already come out a year earlier in 1983. It wasn’t released in America until almost a year later, because K.C.’s previous record label that the song had been first recorded for had refused to put it out as a single in America, so he started his own label to put it out in America and the album it was on, K.C. Ten, hence why this music video was made, to help in the promotion process.

I remember when I was in 8th grade back in 2002, our music class played this song and we had to do a dance to it. 😩😊
This Is The REEAL Original Music Video For This Song!
Good ol’ 80’s, when the music videos and lyrics didn’t have to make sense of one another
I remember when I was a little girl in the 80s I loved this song❤️
thanks the kingsman for giving a mixtape without reason, now i well know why, therefore i can fight the world's enemy with my knife shoes, it gives me sort of breaking dance
If you listen to the rhythms, riffs, and percussion fills on the instrumental track, you can hear it foreshadowing Paul Simon's "Graceland" album, which came out a couple years later. Some definite similarities between "Give It Up" and "You Can Call Me Al."
2024 and this continues to keep all the freshness of the beloved 80's. Thank you KC!
UK recognises true legends contrary to US,
This band had 5 number 1s in the US
Essa música 🎶 é muito boa, bons tempos!👏🌷🎶
Concordo com vc nos dias de hoje tem músicas que não nos agrada, parabéns por vc gostar das lindas músicas, fique com Deus
Love the video. Deserves a film of it's own.
When music was real and fun. Unlike today. I miss, these times.
I'm totally obsessed with this band. Been playing this song in particular for the last month straight. My kids are ready to kill me, but I don't care, love this song. Reminds me of when I was a kid in the 70's and 80's!
I think your kid will did the same thing like you did
I absolutely love this song, I'm 41 and this was my first ever record i bought on 7 inch vinyl, i couldn't wait to get home from town to put it on the record player, good times
