Well the 70s wasn't nostalgic for everyone! It was the decade where violent crimes rose to over 130%. Depending on where you lived, the 70s was like a war zone, just look at New York City in the 70s! The city was on the brink of bankruptcy, crime was rampant and gangs ruled. Pandemics could of happened at any point in time, its a good thing it happening now. Crime rates are lower and technology is better. Sure the music was better, I guess.
@@sharpsvilleBill Yeah I have a habit of telling people who that claims the decade they grew up in was much safer than it is today. They see it through Rose Tinted Glasses. Crime is at it's lowest now! I remember places that police were scared to go in the 80s and 90s. Now they have some of the lowest crime. I think its an insult to say humanity has gotten worse. My mother said that in their day, you didn't have Pedos on the streets back then. We called them dirty old men. Lol

I was a little girl back in the 70's, ( I was born in 1968), but I remember it as a fun decade. Sure, the 70's had its ups and downs like any decade, but back then, TV shows were better, music was better, films were better, and dancing was better. The Hustle is one of my favorites. I can't dance, but it's fun watching people dance to this popular disco tune. If only we could go back to the good old days!

60 years old in 2024 and I'm suddenly transported back to the glorious 70s with this classic song. I don't want to leave because I truly miss this so bad!!!

It probably wasn't that the seventies were less stressful and less toxic, it's more likely that you were just younger with less stress and toxicity weighing down on you. I always find it important to find the good in the now whenever you can or you run the risk of only ever enjoying yourself in retrospect.
I always say that, we used to appreciate the little things in life more. I know we were young and more care free, but people in general were more caring. Families were much more united. Technology seperated us. When we had one black and white tv , everyone watched together. Now everyone is on his mobile, tablet or computer. We live in invisible bubbles were we see each other but no really communicating. Life was more affordable, my dad provided for 7 children and wife. Mum took care of all our needs and although she was very busy she found time to play with us or a walk in the countryside during the week. But now to buy a house both parents have to work until they are pensioners. Young couples cannot afford to help their aging parents, and after a lifetime of giving most elders end up with strangers in a residence for the old. Mum was bedridden the last 3 years of her life but we took care of her at home. She herself helped her mum for 20 years. We need to go back to a time when life was more meaningful.
We Japanese had called this tune 'discotic sound' and 'Philadelphia step' 70's. Before study or work, we had listned this tune. Thank-you , from Chiba Pref. Japan.
I was 20 in 75 and there was no doubt that it was the best time to be young. The music was amazing. The best. It brought everyone together no matter what race or coulor. I would go back in a heartbeat.
This was my best friend"s favourite song. Despite being a kleptomaniac (he used to steal wallets at store), he was the kind of guy who always had your back. Even after years without seeing because he moved to Hawaii, everytime I hear it I think about him.
The greatest decade of music EVER! I was 18 in 1970 and caught the entire disco scene. And so so many hits came out the year I got married, 1977. Real music, no autotune, no gymnastics, no processing....just great music!!
I was 11 that year. I love the '70s music. I recently set up a 1979 playlist, and it's great music --- GREAT music --- but you can sense that it's changing that year, suggesting things would be different in the '80s.
I grew up in the eighties being told that disco sucks, now I've fortunately gotten rid of a lot of my prejudices (not all, country sucks:) but I really like a lot of disco music.
This song always makes me think of my parents, uncles aunties and my grandparents, when I was a child, when everyone was young and others still alive. A great song from a wonderful long gone era of our lives…❤️⭐️
Same here 😊 I was 6 years old when this song came out and remember my cousin teaching me how to do "the hustle". She was 25 then. Now I can't remember how it's done, that's why I'm watching this video lol! 😉 By the way, my son's name is Leon ♥️
I wish I could go back to the 70s. I love that decade. It had the best music and movies. I don't care what anyone says about disco. It's good, uplifting music.
These subtle ones are the best. Not like "This song really gives me a GOLDEN EXPERIENCE", but rather this where even a Jojo fan has to think for a moment if its actually a Jojo reference
I wish I understood back then how special this music was. Like pretty much everything from the birth of the American jazz era to the late 1990's, I never thought musicianship would become a thing of the past.
It really hasn't. The way to find out about music has just changed now from the days when you'd rely on Soul Train or the radio or a knowledgeable record store employee. Also let's be real, most pop sucked then too, we just remember the funky, inventive, good stuff.
@@aemuth8235 yes it has. If you listen to any of the ‘artists’ around today and what is put in the public eye and becomes majorly popular across the world.
I first heard this composition coming out if a record store when walking the beat as a young cop in October 1975. Every time I hear it, I’m instantly flooded with wistful memories in a time I was naively hopeful with a view of the future.
Your comment is going to garner lots of likes, because it's dead on. I was 9 when this came out, and I remember it from the radio, but I also remember it being played at a wedding, and all the women, of all ages, got up and danced in formation the same dance steps. Lots of disco seems to be performed in the high registers, and with the soaring violins and horns, it has a hopeful spiritual quality to it. It really must have been a hopeful time, since all people wanted to do was dance. Look at music today. Blah.
I believe this era was the absolute peak of great pop music! I feel so fortunate to have been a young man growing up then. It'll never be the 70's and 80's ever again 😢

Van McCoy won a Grammy for this classic. Van also wrote the song, I Get the Sweetest Feeling, which became a hit for Jacky Wilson, and numerous other songs for the likes of Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight & the Pips. A very creative and talented man who sadly died from a heart attack at the young age of 39. I bet Mr. McCoy would be pleased to know that this great song is still being played around the world.

I miss those days with tears in my eyes. It's been fifty years and I'm 18 again when I hear it. Times were more wholesome, peaceful and fun. The 1970s were magical.
Such great memories,Wife on bike now,I'm sitting here getting her heart rate up,We 68 and 71 now but we were the dancers of the 70s and this was one of our favorite dance songs !

1978, I attended pre-school at 6 years old. Heard this on the school bus every morning. That era was followed by the wonderful 80’s. Man, this song really brings back the memories of my childhood.
The 80s were good!? Aids was everywhere. Crack was everywhere. Homophobia was everywhere. Racial incidents kept happening. The Cold War threatened to kill us all. Corporations were abandoning America for Mexico.
I'm 57 as well. Heard this also on the radio at 10. What a great time we had in 1975. Best dance song of the 20th Century. This song makes us still feel young although were in our 50s.
@@nickprica3127 Thanks very much. It was a terrific time indeed. The best days have certainly been and gone. Nice to know I'm not the only one who feels like that. Have a good week 🙏
Van McCoy was a DC native and I was hired to spend the day photographing Van as he was honored by the city on “Van McCoy Day”. We went to record shops, clubs and the Mayor’s office where he presented Mayor Washington with a Platinum Record. Van was presented the Keys To The City by Mayor Walter E. Washington. Van and I became friends because he liked my work and the way I stayed out of the way while I was doing it. He hired me to do many assignments that year including concerts featuring Melba Moore, his concerts and even private family gathering in his DC home whenever he came to town. On New Year’s Eve 1977, my wife and I drove up to Englewood NJ to meet with Van so I could go into NYC to the Power Station Recording Studio as he put the finishing touches on his new album. Then we prepared to spend the weekend shooting his new album cover for MCA Records, his new record label. After the ball dropped on the New Year, we left the studio, drove to Englewood and dropped by the “Wicket Wilson Pickett’s” house in Englewood, NJ to continue to bring in the New Year. I couldn’t believe my wife and I were actually going to meet Wilson Pickett. We played pool, Van played Wilson Pickett’s piano and we had a ball just hanging out. For a guy just beginning to make a name for myself in the entrainment industry with my cameras, this was like a dream to me and my wife who had celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary that April. Afterwards, we went on to Van’s and finish the album cover shoot for the “My Favorite Fantasy” album. What Van did for me and my career and family continued to be a fairytale but you’ll have to wait to read that part of my story next month in my upcoming Apple Book photo documentary “Unexpected Access” which I take you on a photographic journey behind the scenes and on stage as I covered some of the most iconic artists of the 70’s. At 72, I still pinch myself. Thank you Van McCoy!
this song reminds me of the time I got my ear pulled around my head in a fashion boutique just because I wanted to borrow some wallet. What a certified hustle moment!
She's still there with you Angel. This song echo's through the years. I'm sure your mom is dancing now, and will be when you see her again. Take care of yourself and keep on loving.
Music is the perfect time machine that instantly takes you back to the moment you heard it and impacted you for the first time, bringing like a video in your mind all the good memories you harbor in your heart. This record takes you back to the Great Summer of 1975 !!!
The. Hustle-reminds of 1970’s. For sure . A very distinctive piece , sound era ! The dance, clothes , hair styles , all the 70’s the orchestra is dynamite . Thank Van McCoy !! ✨✨✨✨
Such a beautiful piece of music. One of the best of all time. Those strings get to me every time. Van was a genius. Takes me back to my youth. In Sheffield UK. R I P brother.
I’m 60 and was a teen when this came out! We were all wild for this!!! We had great music, great dancing and the freedom to enjoy it! What a great time to be a teen!!
Mom was always dancing and loved disco. I remember dancing with her as a little boy to this song. This 54yr old man can still do the moves and even the young ladies can't help but join in at times. Love you mom and thanks for evey thing you sacrificed in raising me!

ORAA!!
wow how do you remember all the lyrics?
I wish I wrote this song...🤑 yeah for real!
The Husle bullying a young, rich mangaka
THE Hustle
The greatest decade of music EVER! I was 18 in 1970 and caught the entire disco scene. And so so many hits came out the year I got married, 1977. Real music, no autotune, no gymnastics, no processing....just great music!!
I was 11 that year. I love the '70s music. I recently set up a 1979 playlist, and it's great music --- GREAT music --- but you can sense that it's changing that year, suggesting things would be different in the '80s.
and the Drugs were REAL Good !
I grew up in the eighties being told that disco sucks, now I've fortunately gotten rid of a lot of my prejudices (not all, country sucks:) but I really like a lot of disco music.
@@mikearchibald744 Contemporary Country sucks, but not classic country and its classic sub-genres.
@@issues9828 Agreed.
This song always makes me think of my parents, uncles aunties and my grandparents, when I was a child, when everyone was young and others still alive.
A great song from a wonderful long gone era of our lives…❤️⭐️

So true my friend damn bang holy shit
Same here 😊 I was 6 years old when this song came out and remember my cousin teaching me how to do "the hustle". She was 25 then. Now I can't remember how it's done, that's why I'm watching this video lol! 😉 By the way, my son's name is Leon ♥️

This is blowing my mind that this song will be 50 years old in 2025. No other disco song do it for me like this...
Same!❤ This is my ringtone on my cell phone 🥰🪩🕺🏻
Same me!! Just love it❤️ ❤ Half a century old but still sounds so exciting and so uplifting just like it did when I was in my teens🕺💃❤
I like what you’re doing to me - young and Company but still a great classic
This was about as cool as it got in the 70s.
Yes!!!

1975 video…it’s a great song. I wish they had music like this now. Now, you barely have music in a song. 😂
He won’t be missed, as us JOJO fans will keep this song alive
Rest in peace Van McCoy. Thanks for all the great music and memories.
This song makes my muscles move in a very *bizzare* manner.
I wish I could go back to the 70s. I love that decade. It had the best music and movies. I don't care what anyone says about disco. It's good, uplifting music.
Plus, TV shows, as well.📺😀👌
60s were pretty good fer music too
I agree...love my 70's albums...in my happy place always 🤣
A happy simple time
I'm with you as far as this, KC, Andrea True, and Heatwave are concerned.
This song really sticks to you
Good shit right here
Okay this is the best one
It certainly does!! 😊
These subtle ones are the best. Not like "This song really gives me a GOLDEN EXPERIENCE", but rather this where even a Jojo fan has to think for a moment if its actually a Jojo reference

大好きな歌なので聴けてよかったです！PVを観られてよかったです！ありがとうございます。
Oh My God, this was for me one of the best songs ever made. It came out in 1975 and it still gives me so warm feeling inside
We all know when it came out and didn’t need to know how you feel about it beta
@@biggiebeats1490 if you not were interrested in the comments and what what people feel and think about it you better stay away here
Yes and I remember in 75when I was 9,I'm 55now still like it 😁 have a great day
The song came out in 1963
I wish I understood back then how special this music was. Like pretty much everything from the birth of the American jazz era to the late 1990's, I never thought musicianship would become a thing of the past.
It hasn’t.
God it frightens me now how good the 70's was . Brilliant music everyone got on and had a brilliant time. Nearly 62now scared of going x
It really hasn't. The way to find out about music has just changed now from the days when you'd rely on Soul Train or the radio or a knowledgeable record store employee.
Also let's be real, most pop sucked then too, we just remember the funky, inventive, good stuff.
Right?!
@@aemuth8235 yes it has. If you listen to any of the ‘artists’ around today and what is put in the public eye and becomes majorly popular across the world.
I first heard this composition coming out if a record store when walking the beat as a young cop in October 1975. Every time I hear it, I’m instantly flooded with wistful memories in a time I was naively hopeful with a view of the future.
Your comment is going to garner lots of likes, because it's dead on. I was 9 when this came out, and I remember it from the radio, but I also remember it being played at a wedding, and all the women, of all ages, got up and danced in formation the same dance steps. Lots of disco seems to be performed in the high registers, and with the soaring violins and horns, it has a hopeful spiritual quality to it. It really must have been a hopeful time, since all people wanted to do was dance. Look at music today. Blah.
That Is an amazing memory! It wasn’t amazing time to be Alive .
@@issues9828 all we wanted to do was dance & f**k. If u know i'm right: raise your hand. We outfitted vans just for this reason
@@tonyborelli. I was too young for that at the time, but I'm sure you're right for people of age.
Naivete is part of belief in hope but the dichotomy i guess is that from my beloved's lips, theres no hopeless case unless your 6 feet under. 😎
I believe this era was the absolute peak of great pop music! I feel so fortunate to have been a young man growing up then. It'll never be the 70's and 80's ever again 😢
When that 2nd Stimulus comes in! 😌🕺🏻💃🏻🕺🏻💃🏻

Van McCoy won a Grammy for this classic. Van also wrote the song, I Get the Sweetest Feeling, which became a hit for Jacky Wilson, and numerous other songs for the likes of Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight & the Pips. A very creative and talented man who sadly died from a heart attack at the young age of 39. I bet Mr. McCoy would be pleased to know that this great song is still being played around the world.
Yeah.Van McCoy was responsible for hundreds of hit songs.
If u r reading this, then you know good feeling good music 🎵🎶🕺🏾💃🏾☝🏾
Born in 70s, here. I do Love hearing this again!
I miss those days!
Were great times! ❤
Love this song despite the limited lyrics. It's often played on the radio. Perfect to listen to while driving along the countryside.
i agree! ♫♪ Do the Hustle, build & tone your muscles & dance your troubles away & never save them for a rainy day! ♫♪ Whistle Whistle Beep Beep, Toot Toot! LOL!
I miss those days with tears in my eyes. It's been fifty years and I'm 18 again when I hear it. Times were more wholesome, peaceful and fun. The 1970s were magical.
Hallelujah brother or sister. So true, so true.
The 70s were tumultuous times but the music was Fantastic. Such a broad range of excellence. So glad I lived it.
Such great memories,Wife on bike now,I'm sitting here getting her heart rate up,We 68 and 71 now but we were the dancers of the 70s and this was one of our favorite dance songs !
😍EXCELLENT! I'll be 65 yrs. young next month, (same day/different yr. than Elizabeth Taylor!) & I "Dancersize" to keep in shape.

1978, I attended pre-school at 6 years old. Heard this on the school bus every morning. That era was followed by the wonderful 80’s. Man, this song really brings back the memories of my childhood.
The 80s were good!? Aids was everywhere. Crack was everywhere. Homophobia was everywhere. Racial incidents kept happening. The Cold War threatened to kill us all. Corporations were abandoning America for Mexico.
We’re going to get that Diamond and be filthy rich!!!!
Happy times, not a care in the world, wonderful childhood. Probably the best decade of my life and i'm now 57.
I'm 57 as well. Heard this also on the radio at 10. What a great time we had in 1975. Best dance song of the 20th Century. This song makes us still feel young although were in our 50s.

The best disco sound that ever played... From the 70's until now...
I can feel my muscles hardening themselves while listening to this❤

She was our disco queen
Aww. I hope she is dancing where ever she may be.
Rest In Peace ❤️🕊
I loved to dance, on roller skates, to Dancing Queen by Abba, & everyone called me their Dancing Queen, including my all time favorite uncle!
I was 5 when this came out. I miss the 80s, but why am i about to sob to this wonderful time? People genuinely liked each other.

Van McCoy was a DC native and I was hired to spend the day photographing Van as he was honored by the city on “Van McCoy Day”. We went to record shops, clubs and the Mayor’s office where he presented Mayor Washington with a Platinum Record. Van was presented the Keys To The City by Mayor Walter E. Washington. Van and I became friends because he liked my work and the way I stayed out of the way while I was doing it. He hired me to do many assignments that year including concerts featuring Melba Moore, his concerts and even private family gathering in his DC home whenever he came to town. On New Year’s Eve 1977, my wife and I drove up to Englewood NJ to meet with Van so I could go into NYC to the Power Station Recording Studio as he put the finishing touches on his new album. Then we prepared to spend the weekend shooting his new album cover for MCA Records, his new record label. After the ball dropped on the New Year, we left the studio, drove to Englewood and dropped by the “Wicket Wilson Pickett’s” house in Englewood, NJ to continue to bring in the New Year. I couldn’t believe my wife and I were actually going to meet Wilson Pickett. We played pool, Van played Wilson Pickett’s piano and we had a ball just hanging out. For a guy just beginning to make a name for myself in the entrainment industry with my cameras, this was like a dream to me and my wife who had celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary that April. Afterwards, we went on to Van’s and finish the album cover shoot for the “My Favorite Fantasy” album. What Van did for me and my career and family continued to be a fairytale but you’ll have to wait to read that part of my story next month in my upcoming Apple Book photo documentary “Unexpected Access” which I take you on a photographic journey behind the scenes and on stage as I covered some of the most iconic artists of the 70’s. At 72, I still pinch myself. Thank you Van McCoy!
this song reminds me of the time I got my ear pulled around my head in a fashion boutique just because I wanted to borrow some wallet. What a certified hustle moment!
