Imagine being 14 years old in 1984 when this song came out. When I tell you Ralph was my everything I mean my everything. I had New Edition posters all over my room. Even today at 52 I’m still one of their biggest fans. I’m looking forward to seeing them in March at The Prudential Center in Newark. This would be my 10th time seeing New Edition live. I still remember them performing for Harlem Week when they first came out in 1983. Much love from Harlem NYC ❤❤❤
I always think of this song as the precursor to "Poison"; Michael and Ronnie are trying to warn Ralph about this chick (who got passed around by the "crew"), and are trying to break it to him easy, but he's too stubborn to listen.
This song reminds me of my teenage years, the best years of my life. I had such a good childhood and listening to these songs reminds me of the days when life was good and simple.😊

yomi williams #thatpart loves this Ralph when he still made them hard faces and had that cooler than cool way of combining popping and dancing ! Here he is at full confidence.. but when Bobby left.. he lost some of his “ness” He was still a great performer but his swag was forever off.. even tho they had success later on with Johnny. He and Johnny picked up the rights and currently split ownership of the new edition name and to the rest of the groups credit tho they have some kind of way abt this (Who wouldn’t?) they said the very least they could have done is to gift their longtime choreographer and manager Brook Payne have at least a third.. I think Ralph was amazing from day one.. I like that. Cos their choreography was always tight and we love that
If you didn't grow up in this era as a kid, you have no idea what you missed out on and how good life was. Kids nowadays are so attached to their cell phones and addicted to social media that it's literally ruining their lives. Please pray for our youth. 🙏 🙏 🙏
I only listened to this the other day and thought it was a female vocal. Watching the video today I'm surprised that a guy who looks around 18 sounds like an 8 year old girl.
New Edition was a Revival of the boy band era, and were a remake of The Jackson 5. New Kids on the Block, Nsync, Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, and Boys ll Men owe it all to them.
I was in 5th grade when this came out in 1984. Cosby show premiered also in 1984. Michael Jackson Thriller was on the top of the chart for so many weeks from 1983-1984. Lionel Richie's All NIght Long and Hello and Donna Summers Hard for the Money were displayed alot on the early days of Music Television. Whitney Houston arrived on the charts in 1985. All the kids were moon walking or break dancing and it wasn't considered rebellious nor counter culture. Stevie Wonder, Dionne Warwick, Kool in the Gang, Irene Cara, Tina Turner, Sade, Kool and the Gang, Prince, Pointer Sisters... list goes on and on. The image of Black America in the 80s portrayed in the media were generally positive. What happened?
@@oholm09 MTV was cable TV. People make it sound like 80s was void of Black People on TV in America. Music Videos were played over the air without paying extra at least where I was living in Chicago Burbs.

Not only did New Edition have a great run, I don't think there is any other band (male or female) in which each individual member had equally successful runs as independent artists
I can't believe how the cast looked so much like them. They did a GREAT job. These brothers (Real New Edition) deserves a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. Bottom Line- I love you guys!
IMO looks-wise Johnny, Ricky, and Ronnie really lucked out getting portrayed by Luke James, Elijah Kelley, and Keith Powers. But yeah, agreed, casting like this is hard and they did a really good job.
Happy 40th anniversary to this big hit of New Edition! By the way, on the Billboard Hot 100, "Cool It Now" peaked at #4 on the week ending January 5, 1985 behind "Sea of Love" by The Honeydrippers at its peak at #3, "The Wild Boys" by Duran Duran at its peak at #2, and "Like a Virgin" by Madonna at its peak at #1.
when I was a toddler/small child my father would play this song nonstop around the house.. My dad was born and raised in West Africa and when i was a baby, he hadn't been in America longer than 10 - 15 years.. Insane.
+Ricky Rodriguez Curiosity, Crush on You, You Got it All, by the Jets, beats anything by both New Edition and NKOTB, with the added bonus that all in the Jets group are good looking and talented.
+Ricky Rodriguez I see. You can RUclips, The Jets, and most if not all their hits should show up. In fact, You Got It All has been heard at many high school proms/dances. Great group.

Tania Jones Nah. Bobby came into his looks around '88/'89 and then got more handsome in the early 90's. Ralph was the cutest, but then suddenly they all started to get handsome late 80's and early 90's.
Y angel Funny. I always thought Ronnie was the least attractive one until BBD days! Tell Me When Will I See You Smile Again video is when I started noticing he was getting better looking. He always looked like a bumble bee to me. His eyebrows threw me off in his younger days! HaHa! Ralph was always the cutest to begin, but I don't think he's aged as well as some of the others. Ricky got fine as hell! Bobby did as well in his My Prerogative days!

I REMEMBER THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME I SAW THEM LIVE AT THE FRONT ROW THEATER IN CLEVELAND IN 1985 THEY WERE THE HEADLINERS THE UNDERCARD WAS THE FAT BOYS AND UTFO WE ENDED UP MISSIN UTFO PERFORM DUE TO THE DAMN TRAFFIC GETTIN THERE I TOLD MY SIMPLE ASS COUSIN LET'S LEAVE 2 HRS EARLY SO WE COULD AVOID RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC BUT DID SHE LISTEN? NOOOO I SAID TO HER DON'T U KNOW A LOT OF OTHER FOLKS R COMIN TO SEE THESE BOYS BUT SHE WANNA LEAVE AN HR BEFORE THE SHOW SHIT LUCKY WE GOT THERE TO SEE THE FAT BOYS GO ON
I was 12 when this song was released. I listened to it intently each time it played on the radio, with one purpose, to get Ralph's rap down pat. Don't get me wrong I love this song, btw! It always brings me back to the days of playing out in front of our house, riding Big Wheels around! Whenever I play this on my DJ set up at my house when there is a party, I would grab the mic and rap that part in a high pitched voice. The embarrassed look on my oldest daughter's face while her little brother and sister watch and laugh...🤣🤣🤣priceless! While my wife is laughs hysterically.
40 years later, and still baffles me that out of Bobby Brown, Robbie Ricky and Mike (Bel Biv Devoe), and later Johnny Gill, Ralphie was the only member that never made it on his own outside of New Edition. Even though Ralphie said in this song that he could handle things by himself.
They were like Jackson 5 of the 80s.i love all type of music and of any era I love the 80s era was the best in my personal opinion and especially Michael Jackson era the best ever

By the way, on the Billboard Hot 100, "Cool It Now" peaked at #4 on the week ending January 5, 1985 behind "Sea of Love" by The Honeydrippers at its peak at #3, "The Wild Boys" by Duran Duran at its peak at #2, and "Like a Virgin" by Madonna at its peak at #1.
happy 40th anniversary to one of my fav new edition songss!!
Decades later and Ralph's rap verse still goes hard. Lmao.
Nicanor Mercado word!!!!
😎 it down when u 👀 something crazy😂😂😂
hi nicanor!
Fax🔥
I know right. I wish more Rap out today was like Ralph's instead of the vulgar Nicki Minaj or Lil Wayne
when I was a toddler/small child my father would play this song nonstop around the house.. My dad was born and raised in West Africa and when i was a baby, he hadn't been in America longer than 10 - 15 years.. Insane.
I love Ralph's voice. He should have been bigger as a solo artist.
MissMulatto he was one
Yes Lord. Politicks had a lot to do with his solo career. Ralph is the total package!!
Ralph was like y’all playing basketball I’m trying to get up with this beautiful sheep standing outside of the gate 😂😂😂 salute.
This song is addictive, I've watched it 15 times!
Candy Girl is my favorite.
mine to I love how the base went
That’s how I was years ago
Me too
I REMEMBER WHEN THIS SONG CAME OUT I WAS 13 ❤❤❤❤
Anyone watching their old videos after watching the New Edition movie? Damn, that was too good 🔥🔥🔥
Watching the movie really helps you understand the ongoings in the background, and better appreciate the performances
Me i am legit watching the movie now
I am
Meee
What is the movie called? Where was it on?
As a 30 year old man I am happy to say that if boy bands were like this these days I'd be buying tickets to all their concerts!
I know you would. Have you ever seen NE in concert?
Hey I'm currently 30 now 😅
Who’s listening in 2024

Shaundra Lee I'm 13 lol
That part has been stuck in my head for the last few days. I had to come listen to it. Now I'm off to hear "Man, C-O-U-N-T me out."
Ralph's voice is beautiful
Aaaah, wonderful song, the way music was meant to be!
Im 13 and in love with New Edition. For some reason I like old music better than music in my generation
Moana Disne

I LOVE THE 80'S MUSIC 🎶🎵💜💜💜
@Jamie Hama HELLO GOOD HOW ABOUT YOU IM DOING
@Jamie Hama Thanks but it's night time here
this is not the 80s its the 2009 bonnie.
not to be rude, so have a great day.
Me too
@@cecilthorn2687 this came out in the 80’s dumbasss the video like most old ones were uploaded to RUclips in 2009 😂
I love this song! So innocent and catchy
+Ricky Rodriguez... and dated
+Ricky Rodriguez Lol, it's the truth.
+Ricky Rodriguez Curiosity, Crush on You, You Got it All, by the Jets, beats anything by both New Edition and NKOTB, with the added bonus that all in the Jets group are good looking and talented.
+toyoscio I dont know what that is. i only know this song because ive heard it on the radio and i like it. Im 25 so....
+Ricky Rodriguez I see. You can RUclips, The Jets, and most if not all their hits should show up. In fact, You Got It All has been heard at many high school proms/dances. Great group.
I was 13 when this song came out...the last of the greatest generation...those precious, beautiful days are gone with the wind😢❤❤❤
I was 12. This brings me back! To the good ole days😅
When the Sun Casted a Different Light, and we witnessed Light Posts Lighting up!! 😮😊❤
🙋♀️
I was 11
Man I love the classics and growing up in the 80s was the best!
80's best error

Whoever listening to this in 2021 is a legend!
thanks Bro
That makes me a legend. I love this song!!
@@cynthiabarker522 you sure are!
I know I’m a old legend... lol 😂
Thanks to #lennaryoung straight vibes 😎😎😎
The 80's decade of music was great. New Edition had some great hits. 👍❤
This is the greatest I’m 26 just recently found this song and I’m in love on repeat 24/7
its crazy how hip hop r&b started its crazy how it is now
Clinton Dezeurn I love the 90's and 2000's but the modern day shit is horrible Biggie
Leanna underwood guess Kendrick J cole Tyler gambino Joyner Logic and Chance are horrible
When I was a little kid, my mom played this on her phone on the way to camp.
the feeling I get whenever I hear this song never changes.
you still are a kid 😂
@@deplexic1585 no I am not. Camps existed back then, and so did this song. I just still like the song. Reminds me of childhood. I have stated my point, I am leaving now.
@@XOXO_claire_ you funny asl lmfao you atleast like 15
@@XOXO_claire_ Mobile phones that play music came out from 2004, 20 years after the song was released. But I get your point though. I remember hearing this song for the first time in 96.
I used to walk like Bobby at 1:50 down Walmart aisles when I was little. I got popped every time😂😂
Alexis Mays Yoooo😂😂😂😂
NOOOOO LMAOAOAO
I’m crying 😂
😂😂😂😂
You’re a lady you shouldn’t be walking like a tomboy
Was this filmed in Brooklyn?
Black R&B music will always be remembered we started music 🗣💯🖤🖤✊🏾
That's probably the most ignorant thing I've read in awhile
This song never gets old. No matter how
much I listen, I never get tired
I think it's safe to say that Ralph was the only cute member. Bobby started growing into his looks in the early 90's.
do you not see Ronnie?😍😍
Saddiyah Armstrong ugmaster
Saddiyah Armstrong I agree Ronnie was the best looking when they were younger
Tania Jones Nah. Bobby came into his looks around '88/'89 and then got more handsome in the early 90's.
Ralph was the cutest, but then suddenly they all started to get handsome late 80's and early 90's.
Y angel Funny. I always thought Ronnie was the least attractive one until BBD days! Tell Me When Will I See You Smile Again video is when I started noticing he was getting better looking.
He always looked like a bumble bee to me. His eyebrows threw me off in his younger days! HaHa!
Ralph was always the cutest to begin, but I don't think he's aged as well as some of the others.
Ricky got fine as hell! Bobby did as well in his My Prerogative days!
2024❤Back on the block.. can't get enough of New Edition.❤high school till motherhood and I am proud to say my family loves y'all.. Been great having your sounds in our ears and hearts❤ watching you bloom and remain friends.. it's a blessing God bless you all from Zimbabwe ❤🇿🇼
Im not gonna lie, the early 80s looked sooo fun!
I REMEMBER THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME I SAW THEM LIVE AT THE FRONT ROW THEATER IN CLEVELAND IN 1985 THEY WERE THE HEADLINERS THE UNDERCARD WAS THE FAT BOYS AND UTFO WE ENDED UP MISSIN UTFO PERFORM DUE TO THE DAMN TRAFFIC GETTIN THERE I TOLD MY SIMPLE ASS COUSIN LET'S LEAVE 2 HRS EARLY SO WE COULD AVOID RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC BUT DID SHE LISTEN? NOOOO I SAID TO HER DON'T U KNOW A LOT OF OTHER FOLKS R COMIN TO SEE THESE BOYS BUT SHE WANNA LEAVE AN HR BEFORE THE SHOW SHIT LUCKY WE GOT THERE TO SEE THE FAT BOYS GO ON
It was!!!
This one song beats all songs today
You got that right!!!
that's where you're wrong you haven't dug under the surface of garbage
You ain't lying
I was 12 when this song was released. I listened to it intently each time it played on the radio, with one purpose, to get Ralph's rap down pat. Don't get me wrong I love this song, btw! It always brings me back to the days of playing out in front of our house, riding Big Wheels around!
Whenever I play this on my DJ set up at my house when there is a party, I would grab the mic and rap that part in a high pitched voice. The embarrassed look on my oldest daughter's face while her little brother and sister watch and laugh...🤣🤣🤣priceless! While my wife is laughs hysterically.
40 years later, and still baffles me that out of Bobby Brown, Robbie Ricky and Mike (Bel Biv Devoe), and later Johnny Gill, Ralphie was the only member that never made it on his own outside of New Edition. Even though Ralphie said in this song that he could handle things by himself.
Ricky was serving the runway at the end with his strut. I love it .
Bobby always doing the most
진영미 I think he's referring to Bobby's dancing.
LMAOO yo comment goes with your profile pic
fr
ehideFTW lol
That dunk
They were like Jackson 5 of the 80s.i love all type of music and of any era I love the 80s era was the best in my personal opinion and especially Michael Jackson era the best ever
Great comment. I was just a baby in the 1980s but I love that decade to death.
Man, NE w/ Bobby at the beginning was a wonderful thing. I remember being in elementary school and having a crush on a girl named Donna.
Ralph was the shit fr
I love this type of music so much, innocent times, noticing in that time the clothes looks real colorfull, makes you want to be young again
Facts
These were far from innocent times. These kids came from some rough as projects. The 80s was high murder rates high gang banging hiv n crack
This were not innocent times, wtf ?
@@MikeLaRock88 can't lie though I wish we could have some of those times back
@@cosmosadorabilis7677 it might not be in the ghetto projects or hood what they call it. But elsewhere was...not like now days with smartphones kids see very unpleasant stuff here.
Ralph seem like the type to pause his video game for a girl😌
Gae Elle I'm that kind of dude told c:
Gae Elle I'm not risking my win loss 😂
Gae Elle lmaooo
lollllll
Gae Elle Good Point. LOL!
I don’t know why Ralph doesn’t act. Really all of them have great stage presence and personalities. Bobby proved it many times.
