Another jam written by Babyface. I took my mom to a Baby face concert and he was singing all these songs he wrote for others. He said he writes more songs than he can sing. A genius.
@@marig9236 You would not regret it. I’ve seen him 3 times. I was so surprised that he took off running up to the top of the arena back down. Danced his but off and sang so many of the hits he’s written for others (that’s the part that will surprise you the most) plus of course some of his many many hits! Please get your ticket as soon as the world opens up and he hits the road! ✌🏾
All these years later, this song still feels really good. When I was little, I couldn't say their name right. I called them "The Whiskers" 🤣 I mean, they did have outstanding mustaches tho 🤔
Scotty and Walter are the twins. Even though Scott is their last name, Wallace has always gone by Scotty! Saw them live and they jammed almost 2 hrs straight! Love theses guys.
Yo Jack, tell me you noticed that they are twins, this is the second group you reacted to, where the two lead singers are twins, the first one was Jagged Edge, lol.
"Why they not hitting the steady part?" 😂I hollered when you said that lol...Jack was ready for them to hit the rockkk steadyyyy 😂. You are such a vibe! When you learn the lyrics and start singing along, hitting your snaps and dancing, I love it!! Keep sharing, love ❤😘
Thank you Jack for giving them their flowers. They are one of the smoothest male groups in music history. This jam is that Babyface magic !! You should react to their early 80's jam "And The Beat Goes On." Very nice !!
The dance they were doing was popular at the time was literally called The Rock. The unique thing about the Whispers was the lead singing twin brothers who often amazingly sounded like one person. The George you meant to is not funk legend Clinton of Parliment Funkadelic, but genius legendary jazz guitar master, vocal icon, George Benson. The style of improvised vocalizing is called, ‘scat singing’, made popular by 1st lady of song, Ella Fitzgerald, & carried on by a whole legacy of amazing artists including the late great Al Jarreau (We Are the World), & Bobby McFerrin of Don’t Worry be Happy fame. That line the anger from Whispers sings along with the piano lick would be called a scat line among musicians. Fun cool reaction! 👍🏾🎶
The name of the song “Rock Steady” was actually the name of the keyboard stand. They were the last people I saw in concert before the pandemic hit. R.I.P. Nicholas!
Shalom Jack. I’m old enough to be your Dad…haha…. I stumbled upon your vid.. I love your happy attitude and the dance moves…. Refreshing ….. my son is your age too. Keep up the good work
I love The Whispers! Great music, and they always looked like they were having so much fun performing. Another one to check out by them is "Emergency." Guarantee it'll get you moving!
What about another famous group of that era: o’Jays: “Forever mine” you would love it! Eddie Levert is a member who is the father of Gerald Levert you did Casanova yesterday.
What a lot of people don't mention is Kayo the bass player from the Deele plays bass on most of the LaFace productions in the 80s -90s. Kayo was the best at it. Check out the Deele - She Wanted. I've never heard a bass played like that!
That guy was scatting. Ella Fitzgerald created it because at times she would forget the words and created that sound. It became famous and timeless. A lot of people started doing it. This sound became famous! The Flower 🌹
this is such a summertime song. this and "Don't Disturb This Groove" by The System. "Cross My Heart" by Everything But The Girl and "The First Place" by Curiosity Killed The Cat are not far off either. these songs stay on my playlist during the summer.
Or Rock Steady, we did it to Michael Jackson's "Rock With Me" from his 1st solo LP, OFF THE WALL, produced by Quincy Jones.Live, Peace and Music💓 Cali Kalima
"And The Beat Goes On"
YESSSSS ! Also "It Just Get Better With Time ".
Yes, yes, yes !!
Another jam written by Babyface. I took my mom to a Baby face concert and he was singing all these songs he wrote for others. He said he writes more songs than he can sing. A genius.
I did the same thing. I was so shocked he wrote so many hits for others. I knew he was talented but it still blew my mind! Babyface is the man!!
I HAVE TO GO TO A BABYFACE concert before I die. He is the perfect man
Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for bringing facts.

saw taht concert with babyface on tv one once - he's done so many hits
"The one with the light grey suit and the mustache." Jack, how did you not notice the two lead singers are identical twins? 🤣🤣🤣
Exactly
The two lead singers are twin brothers. Jack
He was rockin to much to notice.🤣
He didn't notice with Jagged Edge either.
All these years later, this song still feels really good. When I was little, I couldn't say their name right. I called them "The Whiskers" 🤣 I mean, they did have outstanding mustaches tho 🤔
😹😹😹
The original members of the "Whispers" were identical twins Wallace "Scotty" and Walter Scott, Gordy Harmon, Marcus Hutson and Nicolas Caldwell.
R.I.P Nicolas Caldwell and Marcus Hutson 🌹
Well damn....Now I gotta wait for this one! If someone truly doesn't like Rock Steady they need to bump theyselves outta here.
The Whispers- It's A Love Thing
First song on my driving playlist. Always puts me in a good mood !
Also, “And the Beat Goes On”
My jam
Love this! The big guy with the beard was my uncle! Nicolas Caldwell aka uncle Butch. RIP❤️❤️
My marching band (AAMU) played this years ago! You should react to Backstabbers by The O'Jays. One of the members is Gerald Levert's dad
I’m with you, Backstabbers is always on the playlist!
Yes! and Forever Mine-Ojays! Eddie Levert is that deal!
Don’t forget the anthem For the Love of Money
Rocket city 🚀
The lead singers are twins. That’s why they both have the mustaches. I’m not sure of their names tho...
Scotty and Walter are the twins. Even though Scott is their last name, Wallace has always gone by Scotty! Saw them live and they jammed almost 2 hrs straight! Love theses guys.
Yes, their concerts are EPIC! Non- stop energy!
Walter and Scotty
I didn't have a clue who this was as a kid but this was my shit!
I still blast this today. So glad you reacted to it.
The Whispers- And The Beat Goes On

Babyface is all over this. This was one of his first huge records as a producer

Much Respect for this Group~ Reminds me of Good Times w/ my Dad🥰
The lead singers of the Wispers are twins. The Whispers definitely released some classic gems 💎
When I first saw this video I thought I was seeing double
HI, JACK!!! IM AN OLDER FAN, I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL WHEN THESE AWESOME SONGS CAME OUT, ROCK STEADY WAS MY FAVORITE!!!🥰🥰
I think somehow Casanova and this song were always played back to back or something because one reminds so many of the other
Thank you Jack for giving them their flowers. They are one of the smoothest male groups in music history. This jam is that Babyface magic !! You should react to their early 80's jam "And The Beat Goes On." Very nice !!

This a hit in any era
"Keep on loving me" was a blast they were singing and walkdance through almost all the vid and a cool beat also...
I absolutely love that one and Love Is Where You Find It
🗣NOW WE TALKIN👊🏾
Love that video and the fact that SNL channeled it when they did that short about strolling to the polls.
@@brynneholt1990 didn't know that. Is it on youtube?
Oh hell yeah Youngblood!! You’re going in the vault. Shout out from NYC!!
this was my mommas song!!!! I'm a 03 baby but I'm so glad I was raised on this type of music, thanks mama!❤️🥺
Love the Whispers they have their own groove and I'm here for it.
This is such a song that's played in a background at a BBQ, picnic, during the fourth of July... good song good stuff. Very nostalgic.
“And the beat goes on” another great song by them
Man, I don't think I've heard this since I was a kid. Never knew the group. Great reaction!
And the dance they’re doing is called, “The Rock.” Love it!!!
Shalom Jack. I’m old enough to be your Dad…haha…. I stumbled upon your vid.. I love your happy attitude and the dance moves…. Refreshing ….. my son is your age too. Keep up the good work
I still have this on my play list in 2021 🔥🔥🔥👍🏽👍🏽

So happy to hear this is jack reactssssss intro
Classic! 🔥🔥
the lead singers are identical twins...their voices are so much alile they sing most of their songs at the same time
The Whispers, “Olivia” - awesome song!
'The Rock' was actually a dance back in the late 70's R&B era. This brings me back to my parents' basement parties. 😂Yes, I'm that old.
#70'sBaby
I love The Whispers! Great music, and they always looked like they were having so much fun performing.
Another one to check out by them is "Emergency." Guarantee it'll get you moving!

😃AYYYYYYYYYYYY! 💃🏾Childhood bodyrollin' time!💃🏾
You should react to Cyndi Lauper!!! “Girls just want to have fun”, “true colors” and “Time after time”
This the first song I ever remember hearing. It was the 80's somebody rode past on a bike holding a boom box playing this:)
Brings me back to roller skating days.
Ha ha..now we cooking with grease..!lol
THIS was my jam when I was in the 2nd grade! Good times☺️
The dance was called the rock steady. We used to do that at the club.
Produced by L.A. Reid & Babyface
We stayed here n the dance for this one🔥 Lead singers are identical twins. The moves are a dance which was called the Rock Steady.
This was great music from a great time.
The 80s were the absolute best!!! Love your smile, Jack!!!
Olivia (Lost And Turned Out) by The Whispers!
“Put Your Back Into It” - Ice Cube
If you like this oldie but goodie you would love “Ain’t No Stopping us Now by McFadden and Whitehead
Jack, that vocal technique you referred to is called scatting. It's most commonly used by jazz vocalists but no stranger to R&B.
Yas to the culture ayee! Whole childhood! Great reactions 🔥🔥😭
,I WAS SO LUCKY TO BE IN HIGH SCHOOL WHEN THIS CAME OUT AWESOME!!!!🥰🥰🥰💋
This joint put LA & ‘Face on the map as producers
You got a 'stache idol now, I see
This was so fun to dance to at the clubs! 💃🔥🥃
I like to watch your reactions. You are too smooth for school!!!! Get it, youngin!!!! Do your thing. Smooth!!!!
I smiled all the way throughthis one lil bro.
Yeah, The Whispers in the 80s this was the jam, with that hard beat.
What a lot of people don't mention is Kayo the bass player from the Deele plays bass on most of the LaFace productions in the 80s -90s. Kayo was the best at it. Check out the Deele - She Wanted. I've never heard a bass played like that!
You should try the whispers’ “Olivia”...deep but beautiful song
The "George Benson" thing is called "Scatting"
Brings back good memories. 💗🎵💃
Everyone forgets about “Contagious!”
That guy was scatting. Ella Fitzgerald created it because at times she would forget the words and created that sound. It became famous and timeless. A lot of people started doing it. This sound became famous!
The Flower 🌹
And the beat goes on, you will love it
Lost and turned out, it's fire. It has a double meaning that you will love 💕
Yesssss
You like that you are going to like
The beat goes on
Get it Jack 🕺🔥🔥🔥😁
this is such a summertime song. this and "Don't Disturb This Groove" by The System. "Cross My Heart" by Everything But The Girl and "The First Place" by Curiosity Killed The Cat are not far off either. these songs stay on my playlist during the summer.
