Betty Wright passed away in May 2020 and my heart dropped. This song was HUGE when it came out and long afterward!! EVERYONE knows this song!! The music was sampled on several rap songs as well. I was 12 years old in 1971 when this came out and too young to understand it, but I did dance to it. Now, you have to listen to her song The Babysitter. Don't miss out!!
Betty Wright is one of the GREATS. She has so many SOUL hits, like "Secretary" , "Babysitter", "Let Me Be Your Lovemaker". She made all of us in Florida PROUD!!
I couldn't wait to see Mel's reaction and you didn't disappoint 😄. The funny thing is I was 10 years old when this came out, dancing and singing this song with no clue what it meant. I just thought it was about a cleaning lady 😄. Loved y'all's reaction.
One of the most talented women ever in secular music! She had to show the world that she had the most powerful and highest high register whistle notes in the history of secular music excluding opera music. Check out the live version of her song "No Pain No Gain"
My mother loved some Betty Wright and Millie Jackson! Its like these women had a connection with the problems, issues and concens women were going through!!
This song is fire!!! It exemplifies how a woman's ego can backfire on her! There was another song around the same time that makes a perfect bookend; "Mr. Big Stiff" by Jean Knight. If you haven't reacted to Big Stuff (who do you think you are?) might blow your minds too. Great reaction S&M ❤
I was thinking the same thing, I put those songs in the same group! I also liked the Honey comb with, Want Ads and with, One Monkey Don’t Stop No Show and Stick Up.
Mel's reaction to hearing the chorus of this song at around 1:58 is EVERYTHING; stuff got real for her from that point on. You can tell she don't play like that...LMBO!!! Love your reaction videos, keep them coming.
I love this song. What’s crazy about this is Betty Wright is only 14 years old when she recorded this song. Isn’t that crazy. Betty Wright voice is out of this world . ❤️🙏🏻🔥
Hey y’all, her medley LIVE of this is wayyyy better as she shows off singing like others do but she tells it better. It’s 11:56 mins long but worth it. That’s where I’m headed right now.
She's cleaning up your mess cause you are taking him for granted. You out there having fun with your girlfriends acting like you are single. I heard the beginning riff in a rap song. Someone sampled it.
Make me think of "Let's Clean it up the ghetto" by Philadelphia Inernational All-Stars (a colab with a lot of stars) from the mid 70s. A more disco/funk song. Please react to that one. I think you would like it ❤
I hope you guys go back and read comments on past videos. Betty put out a live album back in 1978. You have got to listen to the live version of this song. Trust me.
In this same genre and style, you should react to the song "Mr. Big Stuff" by Jean Knight. And you better react to the hit "I Gotcha" by Joe Tex. It was a big Southern Soul hit back in the day.
A Clean Up Woman!!!! She said she was talking slick; What that means is she was being Mouthy, Disrespectful, Telling him to Get out --- Where do women think a man goes when she throws him out the house for the night? Or runs him out the house on the Weekend? Or? Or? Or? Oh men won't tell you... But the same day you tell us you want to take it slow, or take a Break -- The Clean Up Woman's Phone is Ringing!!!! FYI -- Now You Know!!! LMBO

😂😂😂 That's so funny. How innocent we were when we were kids! I danced and sang along with songs that were about drugs and I had no idea!

Thanks for the 70's house party music Shawn and Mel. Continue to R.I.P Miss Betty Wright ❤
My mother loved some Betty Wright and Millie Jackson! Its like these women had a connection with the problems, issues and concens women were going through!!
Oh yes! I remember this one. Everybody PAID attention!
"Ain't no checkers; it's chess". 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This song takes me back. I remember when it first came out.
Omgoodness, yall! This is one of my most favorite songs! Just fun! I love Betty Wright! You should check out Shoorah,Shoorah by her. Very good!
That guitar is TOO FUNKY.... Love that MIAMI groove.
This is one of the songs my mom played on Saturday mornings as we cleaned. I'm amazed that I still remember most of lyrics.
This song is fire!!! It exemplifies how a woman's ego can backfire on her! There was another song around the same time that makes a perfect bookend; "Mr. Big Stiff" by Jean Knight. If you haven't reacted to Big Stuff (who do you think you are?) might blow your minds too. Great reaction S&M ❤

Yeah, I agree you have to hear Mr. Big Stuff.

The LEGENDARY Ms Betty Wright
You guys are hilarious. Watch out for them cleanup women😂😂😂🙏🙏
I was about eight or nine when I heard this for the first time way back in 1970 whatever. Besides the lyrics it was the beat that caught my attention.
Do Betty Wright's great song "No Pain, No Gain" where you really get to hear the incredible range this woman had.
All of her "pain" songs. After The Pain, Pain, From Pain to Joy,
Willie D the rapper sampled this and made a rap song called “The Clean Up Man”!
I love this song. What’s crazy about this is Betty Wright is only 14 years old when she recorded this song. Isn’t that crazy. Betty Wright voice is out of this world . ❤️🙏🏻🔥
Big love ❤ and large RESPECT to the lare Ms. Wright

Betty Wright have great that teach about your relationship. She had song that I know you want to hear is Tonight is the night
The live concert is so much better.
She has a good strong voice. I was barely a teenager when this came out, and it sounds better than years ago.
One of the first songs I remember trying to sing. I was 3 or 4. I'm 55 now.
I’ve been watching reaction channels for about two years now I am so glad that someone has finally reacted to one of my favorite songs.
Beautiful music from back in the day no auto tune just live singing.
I've heard this one -- isn't it cute? Love it!
Mel, your reactions just make me giggle!
She's cleaning up your mess cause you are taking him for granted. You out there having fun with your girlfriends acting like you are single. I heard the beginning riff in a rap song. Someone sampled it.
Love your reaction Mel! 🤣🤣🤣
Ahh yeah my peeps, you really going down the proverbial rabbit hole now.
Wait until you hear her hit song "Tonight is the night!" ✌️😐
Mel had me crackin’ up, when she stopped bobbing her head when she heard that line,”making it easy for the ‘Clean up woman’ to get her man’s love”.😅😅😅
Oh this was a good one!
Things ain't never changed..."Clean Up" knows what you been doing …AND not doing
I'm the cleanup man.
thats a song by Clarence Reid! Actually its written by Clarence Reid & sing by Jimmie "Bo" Horne
Check out, No Pain No Gain Live! Betty will show why she’s one of Soul greats.
Listen to the live version of this song she does a melody of clean up women and men
As they say “if one won’t, another will”😛
My favorite by her, and I think y'all would like it too, is "If I Ever Do Wrong."
I personally love Betty Wright and this song! I'm sure Betty didn't mean no harm. She was just talking bout life in general! She wasn't taking shots!
Y'all reaction.😂😂😂😁😁
Classic Funk
Make me think of "Let's Clean it up the ghetto" by Philadelphia Inernational All-Stars (a colab with a lot of stars) from the mid 70s. A more disco/funk song. Please react to that one. I think you would like it ❤
Man at least y'all reacting to Betty Wright.. some of these other black couples won't even give her the time of day.
It happened with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Kennedy's marriage. LOL.
😂😂😂😂👌
Hahahaha right?!!! 😭😭😭🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 She cleaned up all those sloppy seconds & thirds lol!
I hope you guys go back and read comments on past videos. Betty put out a live album back in 1978. You have got to listen to the live version of this song. Trust me.
*Tonights the Night* by her* PLEASE* !!! (long Version !)
Great reaction. Another one to listen to Wanr Ads by the Honeycone. That's one that will make you go huh what? Thanks
Want Ads that is. 😂
70s was all about love the one your with
In this same genre and style, you should react to the song "Mr. Big Stuff" by Jean Knight. And you better react to the hit "I Gotcha" by Joe Tex.
It was a big Southern Soul hit back in the day.
If you haven't yet, you have to react to the song Who's Making Love. Its old school soul with a similar message. 💞
There's a message in the music 🤔
A Clean Up Woman!!!! She said she was talking slick; What that means is she was being Mouthy, Disrespectful, Telling him to Get out --- Where do women think a man goes when she throws him out the house for the night? Or runs him out the house on the Weekend? Or? Or? Or?

Ha she nodding angry
Jumping slick = fooling around.
Yo, got it wrong. She was messing up with her man and she kept messing up so he went and got another woman who treated him right 7:07
women take care of your homework
