One of the greatest songs of all time, no lie! When this came on the radio in the 70s you stop what you were doing and you saying and you listen to this, and Billy Paul’s vocals knocked it out of the park. And here we are in 2022 and it still Great as ever
Yes. It’s THE classic song about people who are cheating. Perfect matching of song and artist. Incredible orchestrations production values by Gamble and Huff. Philadelphia Classic!
The orchestration of this song is just *incredible*!! I didn't really know until in the last few years listening on headphones; the violins, piano, sax are soooooo subtle smooth and well done, you can just almost see all the musicians playing their hearts out!
To be young and in love with a girl named Bertha No when this was out. So much fun singing it. Yes, it was our song. I hear this and its instantly Fall 1972 all over again. We're leaving behind good music for you young'uns...
Sometimes the sound of a track or the crooner’s voice put people in a certain kinda mood to where they don’t even hear the opening lyrics of the song & end up gettin surprised half way through. After opening with ‘Me & Mrs Jones, we got a thing, goin on; we both know that it’s wrong, but it hurts so much to let it go now.’
FROM THAT LONG, LONG, AGO, SUMMER OF '72 . I WAS 25 Y/O, HEADING SOON TO 26. ---------THE SMOOTH SOUND OF PHILADELPJIA , THIS IS A CLASIC " ONE HIT WONDER ', BUT OH MAN, WHAT A ONE HIT HE HAD ! -----------------MJL, 77 Y/O
... them old folks ... hmmm ... they might have been on to something...every generation has got solid ... I remembered when I figured out that Sinatra, Crosby, and Elvis were the sh-t ... my parents knew what they were about ... so do your parents BTW, it's not "bills" ... it's "build"
The clue is in the title MRS Jones- she is married hence MRS (not Miss, Ms etc) and she is married to someone else and he is with someone else too- you have your own obligations and SO DO I....in other words they are having an affair, they know it is wrong but can't stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There were no music videos made before the early 80s, MTV began in November of 1981. If you see something for music before that time, it's usually a television appearance or something pieced together.
Im 55 years old and I hate to use these GenZ words , but you guys are such a vibe !! There . I said it . I want to subscribe but I have to watch more of ur content and delete some of mine . You complete each other .
This is the most beautiful song about Adultery ever written. Even Jesus himself would forgive Mrs. Jones for her adultery. "U Mrs. Jones from the song: 'Me & Mrs. Jones?" "Yes my Lord, I'm her." "AHhhh girl C'mon now, welcome to my Kingdom...U kno weed's legal here, just stay away from Mr. Jones."
Of course she's married. The "Mrs." in the name Mrs. Jones implies that she IS married. 😀 And he says what they are doing is wrong which also implies that either she or both of them are in another relationship.
Mrs. Jones is just Letting you know that the Lady he's Involved with is Married. Her name isn't necessarily " Mrs. Jones "! But Dislike for this!! TOO Many Pauses!! Too much Laughing at Mr. Billy Paul's expense! Why Did you Disrespect the man by Laughing at him? Why? He was Amazing!
The Genius of the LEGENDARY Iconic musical Genius Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff 💯💯💯💯💯

This song was on Cone Heads with Aykroyd & Jane Curtain. He gets home from work & sees candles everywhere right before they "Hone".
Still listening in 2024❤

Mrs. Jones is his wife Blanche, his name is Billy Paul Jones
Of course the song is a classic, it's obviously about him creeping with a married woman.
Of course she's married. The "Mrs." in the name Mrs. Jones implies that she IS married. 😀 And he says what they are doing is wrong which also implies that either she or both of them are in another relationship.
Yep it's about an affair...

@@miguelalejandro4357 Here's the awesome version by the Dramatics.........ruclips.net/video/vO0fmjHhSVY/видео.htmlsi=qWjVc6pjuvJKvMjK
The title says it all.. mrs means married.
Listen to Rome-I belong to you a classic
Yes this is a song about Mrs. Jones who is married but they are having an affair
I always wanted to believe she was in an abusive relationship and found love with Billy Paul , happens in real life all the time. ✌️&❤
Mrs means married. Mrs Jones is the other woman.
Even tho this song is about cheating, it's not vulgar
Billy is a dead man when mr jones finds out

This was about both of them cheating
Me and MRS . Jones are both married and cheating on their spouses with each other.
Adultery

Just like “Where Is The Love?” by Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, it’s about infidelity; clandestine affairs.
MRS duh
They are both married and cheating not just Mrs Jones.
