Lyrics:
I don't want to lose you, this good thing
That I got 'cause if I do
I will surely, surely lose a lot
'Cause your love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
Yes, I'm not superstitious about ya
But I can't take no chance
I got me spinnin', baby
You know that I'm in a trance
'Cause your love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
(You better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock)
Ooh, baby, ooh
It's no secret about it
'Cause with his loving touch
He sees to it that I get enough
Feel his touch all over
You know it means so much
It's like thunder, burstin' lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock, knock on wood, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)
(Think you better knock, knock, knock on wood)

UPDATE: I AM NOW 65 my gosh! 65! I was 22 when this hit came up. Now I am 64. Was a fantastic time in my life. ...... Life is like the blink of an eye!
Same for me Time doesn’t wait on nobody!
Whew, I thought 57 was bad! 🤣
damn right
I'm 55 and am realizing that dose of reality in a more real and defining way with each light-speed year that passes.
i am getting 40, and i am so sad, to know, there will no more that good music than from the past. send you love.
cant believe this is 1979. what a classic.
Right?

@@JohnSmith-bn7bl yo can u suggest more songs like this?
From the effects, I definitely can xD
1979 was something else
Children of the '70''s- represent!
Who 's listening in 2024?
Io ! Italia 🎉
Me.
I definitely am!!😊
Since '75 LoL
Phoenix Arizona in the house!!!
Anyone agree that 70’s & 80’s music is the best 👍
PAWStively
Everything up to 95, after that music started catering to the post crack generation. I can’t relate.
I'd say it's very genre-specific. Some genres have evolved into something I enjoy more and others have just fallen apart.
and 60's too!
Throw in the 60's and you got a deal.
Some of you have been listening to this since 1979. I'm just hearing it for the first time. I love it!
It's pretty great isn't it?
This music is absolutely brilliant isn't it makes you want to dance I was lucky and grew up with this music I was a DJ when this came out I got to play it at discos try doing searches for the gibson bros shalama uptown festival Sylvester you make me feel mighty real if you want to know about other song replies on here and I will give them to you
Never too late !!!!
you need to see the live version on Midnight Special where she exits carried by her male backup dancers
Amazing🎉
I'm 65 years old and was crazy about the club music of the day ( and night ' till closing time of 3am !!! ) and it still gives me goosebumps ! lt would rock your whole body when it was played in the clubs with huge speakers and color sparkles off thedisco ball floating all over the dancefloor and that deep base thumping beat ! l'm there ! we would spend 2 hours getting ready to go out to the clubs ! we all got along and we all had a ball !!!!!!!!
I'm 51, so I was like 7 years old when it went out and in end 80's early 90's we were having big parties in a friend's basement with like club's setting, big speakers, light show, smoke machine, backlight etc... and when we were playing that song all the girls were on the floor dancing, it was a huge hit every time... I really miss that time
Boy do I ever remember these great dance times! It will never be the same!
62 here, we would skate as fast as we could when this song played at the roller rink
@@patog6408Good times 👍
Boney M would not be ashamed of such a song.
According to my mother, this is the best roller skating song in existence.
Lmao! Great roller skating song. This and tainted love..
Sorry mom. It's Bounce Rock Skate Roll.
Even after all these years, I never get tired of hearing this song, it's timeless.
Same here🇮🇹👍
I agree with you!
I love it!🎵💓🎵
This is Better than the original
Or watching the video...
Hey, who remembers when life was fun and carefree and life felt like the mood of this song?
Yes 👍

I used to skate to this stuff & sneak my transistor radio to school and listen on the quad during lunch and breaks 😂
Yep, always loving disco.

Alguien de 2024
this one anyway, she's so HOT
You have no idea what a huge song this was at the time. When they played this at discos, the whole dance floor would pack with dancers. It still sounds great. She was beautiful as well.
Ja, die fand ich schon auf der Kirmes mit meinen 12 Jahren super die Platte und die Frau hätte ich auch gerne mal neben mir gehabt :), jetzt bin ich 55 und habe mir die 12" Vinyl mal gegönnt. No War in Ukraine, Putin hear Musik und so kommt man nicht auf solche nicht vorstellbaren Gedanken :(
YUP!!!!!!!!!!
I'm dancing now!!!
Doesn't surprise me one bit.
True she was a real looker and she danced great, very mesmerising at the time and nowadays too.
I remember being obsessed with this song and video as a kid...I'm forever going to love this song and video. I'm glad I was a kid when I was. 😊
Yor Not the only one....😊😊😊

Now I'm 73 and still listening! Still think it was a good time. Too much hate in the world now.
I was 5 when this dropped. The record played on repeat in my house. She was so fabulous and beautiful to me as a little girl. I’m here for the nostalgia. The song is still a hit.

Well, now you remember! Good for you! Now you've got something to cheer you up when you need cheering up!
I listen to rock and metal but I have this song on my play list. Very good song that in my opinion is way better than the crap that's out today.

Who remembers when this song came out? What a great time to be alive..
I was a kid about 12 years old and loved skating to this.
(From on what I was told) I used to try to dance to this. I was 2 years old when this song came out I always thought it said "walk on wood"
Nov 2018 I'm still grooving
tom rogers I remember well- and I LOVED it!!!
Late 1978/early 1979
These women of the 70s showed alot of passion and they had powerful voices

I came here to find music to cheer me up and this was it!
100% agree
Absolutely
Epic comment sir and perhaps one of the most on point and truthfully stated comments I've read in some time.
Disco takes you away to a totally different zone of bliss. Music is truly a balm for the human sensory system
I absolutely loved this song when I was a kid. RIP Amii. You were a legend
She's still alive
@@ClorissaDee-rh4ukThank God, I got scared for a second
She's not dead
Do you say this for all people over 60 or too impatient find out like all the internet generation that have never opened a book or skimmed knowledge from social media outlets.
Alive and kicking
A gorgeous goddess with a brilliant voice!
If you don't feel like dancing when you hear this song, there is something wrong with you
I would would call that person an ambulance, because she or he would be half dead.

This song was so underground when I was a kid..... what a great time we live in that I can listen to this and see a video I never knew was made.
haloo.please i feel a danc ..but whit you ..me sweet..ok
I'm in love with everything about this video. Her outfit,the visual effects, her dance moves,her voice.
Mary It was THE best # 1978/79 disco redone song.
She was a hell of a singer. Who didn’t wanna look like this...lol! I love that headdress
same here

She's a fractal!
@@MegaHatLady People wouldn't have bated an eyelid. Thing is..she looks good!?
Favorite roller skating song ever!!
The song is over and I'm still staring at the screen. PARALYZED. Wow!
I know right 😭😳🤯😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫! Me too!
This genre of music always slaps so hard. I don’t understand how anyone can hate on funky upbeat disco. This type of music always puts me in a happy mood and then I wanna get up and dance. Shits good, man.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think it's fair to say that not every genre of music appeals to everybody, and people are allowed to choose
This track isnt amongst the highest on my list of favourites I admit, but it is a song a like, or I wouldn't be watching the video, but its choice and not everybody likes this kind of music
this was a time when black singers didn't waste their talent on stupid rap crap. love this song by the way
amen . . . .but for those of us old enough to have actually lived it . . .many of us developed a rather juvinile hatred of 'all things Disco' . . .in the name of Rock And Roll . . . .and then woke up rather recently to just how ripp ass good many of these songs actually were . . .with a healthy portion of nostalgia added to the recipe, it becomes a meal fit for a king.
This is "Hi-NRG"
Damn if this didn’t age like fine wine.
Oh yes.
It did because it’s a flawless presentation of a moment in time - 1979 when disco reached its zenith and the combination of energy, music, and style was unmatched.
Perfection! From the performance, to the outfit, to the sheer sense of fun I just can't get enough of this!
Ami Stewart was the best at power housing some of the old gold. Her record was the first I ever bought. Over time the song only got better with longer remix😂❤
The way I forgot how stellar this song was. I came back to it thanks to Sasha and Anetra's finale lipsync.
I can't believe that this is now 40 years old.
wrong. it never ages chief
Fuck....
Makes feel older than I am!
Really so that means i was singing this when i was 7 and knew the words OMG
Time ages better with love, and i think thats the entire message of this song. Im over 98 years old and life went by quicker than you could imagine
Goodnessss ! Things Remind me of Amii's Song & STILL BRING ME BACK ! What Is A Woman ? Princess Amii , Thank You !
1979. Whyalla, Australia. I was in my final year (matric) at High School and on 'the Edge of Seventeen' see what I did there..? 😁 when the phenomenal and beautiful, Amii dropped this song. It was on the radio, constantly, along with two other massive songs of 1979, Hot Suff and Bad Girls, by the Queen 👑 Donna Summer. I remember, these and Knock On Wood being played at our end of year, school social, a fabulous night at the massive school hall and we all went dressed nice, not like these overblown, ridiculously costly, Prom nights. Absolute halcyon days 💖
This lady was born to sing. She is amazing!
This woman is just pure magic

Probably one of the top 10 disco songs of all time! When you think of disco, this has to come to mind!
This song is now 44 years old still can't believe it I was 14 when this song came out but still sounds fresh as yesterday
This song is one of those that will be good now and in 100 years; it's timeless.
I was 12 when this song came out! Love it to this day!!!
How is possible? Youre 44 minus 14, so This would be 30 years Ago, in the 90's but in the descriptions says that the tune came from 79 years, please don't tell me lies lol
I was 7, but remember like it was yesterday.
@@tresestrelas386 You've got your math problems intertwined. OP said that the SONG is 44. 2023-1979=44. Also, if they were 14 when the song came out, then 44+14=58 tells us that OP is now 58.
Definitely one of the top 10 songs of all time in my opinion!
Not too many remakes outshine the original.
This is one of those that does.
Good music.
put patrick hernandez in that top 10 too.
Here we go again.. It's time to party on people 🎉🎊👍
This is one of the greatest songs ever recorded in the history of music❤
*Miss stewart was way ahead of her time. She clearly KNOCKED this song out of the park.* ✌
Treasure Island I love Amii ❤
Treasure Island *rabid applause*
Awesome nice
not "ahead of her time" - she was right on time! - this is real 70's nightlife style - sorry that you missed it...
SHE SURE DID!!!
Back in the day I used to work (and spend virtually ALL my waking hours on the weekends) at a disco. It was SO much fun and all my friends were there! Sometimes we'd go on break and we'd hear that Knock On Wood "triplet" beat (three drumbeats in the time of one beat) getting mixed into some other song and we'd all SPRINT for the dance floor because we knew it was coming, and we were willing to dance the 5 to 10 minutes until it finally DID get mixed in and become the primary song being played. Oh, how I miss those simpler, easier times.
Great memory. Thx. for sharing.
Hey, I have a question. I was a kid when disco was big, and so I used to play this song all the time, Barbara Streisand, Donna Summer. A lot of them. Anyway, there was one really great song where there was a policeman’s whistle in the song, and I can’t remember the song. I thought it was a Donna Summer disco tune, but I can’t seem to find it. Do you remember the song with that whistle sound in it?
Some things you never forget and one being is the Fall of 1979, walking from the parking lot towards the nightclub and hearing the drumbeat of this classic reverberating from an open exit door.
1979 was the best year for music since Beethoven dropped his Ninth
Oh yea, brings it all back I remember it well too! They’d stamp top of our hand on left hand if underage (to drink) we’d turn the corner & press it onto right hand then off to bathroom to wash off left hands ink haha, sneaky sneak sneak, what great times!! 🎉🎉🎉
I was 11 yrs when I heard Amii Stewart and fell in love with this song in Mexico City 🇲🇽
Oh, yeah? Well I was 12 years old in a top "Ruta Hidalgo" Mexico City middle school at that time.
My classmates in the nearby "vecindades" (small communal living) would throw disco / tropical parties. Mexican society has always been liberal af in some ways. We got down to this stuff and the parents joined in: Le Freak, Boogie Oogie, You Should Be Dancing, Disco Inferno, Dancing Queen, I Feel Love, Get Off, I Will Survive, Play That Funky Music, Fly Robin, I Feel Like Dancing, etc.
But I had to go back to LA in 1981, right into the hair metal scene. 😎
one of my favorite music videos of all time. she is so amazing, her looks, her moves, her singing..... its all so magical
Except for the headdress. It's ridiculous!
@@nicolagebendinger1283 I thought it made her look like a Vegas showgirl :) also, I'll bet headresses will come back in style in the next decade or so lol.
I think she looked and moved with sexy elegance.
This was Eddie Flyod hit that he made in 1966,her version was also unique, but Eddie version was the best, of all time.
@@nicolagebendinger1283 your last name is ridiculous but the headress is beautiful. 🥴
One of the best disco songs.
I was 11 when this dropped. The late 70s was so much fun.
Even as a kid I knew that this was going to be a classic
Then,I'm 65 years old and I've been looking for this song for a long, long time and I didnt remember neather the singer or the title and I didnt want to die without listen it again, now I can rest in peace.
I'm looking for 70's, 80's and 90's hits that I've forgotten about, like this gem!
I recall having this on full blast in my bedroom while my nana was downstairs desperately trying to shout me as the kitchen was on fire! All ok in the end thankfully 😂
And when She saw the Outfit with the horns ,she thought you were into some kind of Evil stuff or Possessed.
She was absolutely beautiful. Still is❤️

This is one time where the newer version of the song far exceeded the original. The original was a good classic R&B song but Amii took this song to a whole new level.

I remember seeing this when it was released, I was eleven. I found her voice astonishing. Still do today.
