2023 🎉 I SLAP this song in my car all the time . My 7 yr old daughter told Alexa the other day “Alexa, play I like It by DeBarge” .. I was so proud. Lol ❤
Right same here I always knew Randy and his other brother can sing but I was waiting on them to do a lead song and he laughed this song with a smooth voice I didn't even know that was Randy's voice Iagree! with you
I remember when Switch first came on the scene, us ladies was feeling them handsome men! Sad when they broke up. Then came Debarge; I became and still am a huge fan. However I'm just now seeing the Bobby Debarge story 😢 how awfully sad what this family went through. Especially Bobby 😢 but just because you were abused doesn't mean you abuse others. I don't understand how he could become something so awful that was done to him. Also his ego was super high and he was jealous of his siblings success. I truly hope he is resting peacefully 🙏
Remember HURT PEOPLE HURT PEOPLE! Seems like he abused Chico Debarge or was it James Debarge? If therapy was big back then, they all could have gotten help😔 Their father was a monster
The ladies don't give no credit to El Debarge' Brother his brother song real good to lead it off you barely even hear his brother sing he deserve credit just as well as El Debarge to, don't give all the credit to El Debarge give it to his brother also
Robby had a great voice and a great writer for the group. And sexy and very handsome. Why he was not in front of the group with his brother El. Show business I guess.
Bobby was singing lead for his group Switch who came out before DeBarge. That's why he wasn't in this group. He was already in a famous group. Plus he got on drugs and was messing up at this time
I thought the same. How can they sing so perfectly but be off beat with simple swaying? El admitted they were NOT good at dancing. That's they're white side.😂
I been a fan of the DeBarge family since I learned to sing and gravitated to them. I bought a 3 DVD set from a guy on ebay in like 04. The first disc got broken when I tried to get it cleaned. Three videos on there that never resurfaced anywhere is the ROTN and Someone live performances on the Joan Rivers show and one with Sinbad, not the ones I uploaded. As soon as YT came out, I wanted to share with other fans so i found a way to upload. Sorry for the long answer.
@@MIXEDMADNESS I don’t mind a long answer❤️ I love the DeBarges too. Their sound has always been so familiar and soulful to me. My family is also full of musicians and a lot of pain and poverty. Music and laughter is so healing. My mom and aunties were a teen vocal group a little older than them, and made a jazz/pop album with the George Duke trio in the late 60’s.
@@cocomaire that's right!!! and 19, when he wrote ALL THIS LOVE for Marvin Gaye. but, Motown Boss Berry Gordy told El, he should record that. thank you Gordy. that's ONE of the few good moves you made for my boy El, at Motown.
The crap these kids went through behind closed doors was pure horror! This is why I think people that watch and follow these RUclips families are fools! They work extra hard to put on a facade for the cameras, but when the cameras are off the real family comes out and the not meant for RUclips version comes out!
Til now I thought this song was sung by only one person.
The whole family was gorgeous and had mad talent
When you sound like the actual cd , you got a voice
the instrumentation is too exact it feels like an overdubbing. cool viddeo still
or you're lipsyncing lol
@@iantuition that’s what I think 😂
El’s voice is amazing but It’s a clear lip sync.
Brother, I could be wrong. but I think this is SOLID GOLD.
as a young, young boy back in LATE 82. you could hear this on the radio. 4, 5 times a day. it's what they call being in heavy rotation. LOL
@@mysticakhenaton1701 Good looking put brother, I honestly don't know which show. I'll check it out and edit it. Thank you so much
it's Solid Gold :)
True
You are not wrong
That's a singing ass family. Every last one of them. Awesome. RIP Bobby😔

Wow! How did I not know Randy sang the first verse
Exactly!! I didn’t know it either.
I just found out watching the doc on Bobby
Me neither
Right same here I always knew Randy and his other brother can sing but I was waiting on them to do a lead song and he laughed this song with a smooth voice I didn't even know that was Randy's voice Iagree! with you
I JUST found this out!!!!
I always thought El sung the whole song😮
Same!! Thank goodness for RUclips!
Omgosh me too!!! I’m shocked, how ever their other 2 brothers were in Switch; the whole family is talented 😊
Amazing 🫨
Their voices blend so beautifully
This tune is so smooth and contagious. Incredible singing talent. Opening 2023 with this amazing masterpiece!
The Bobby Debarge Movie brought me here. Said a lot about this families story. 😢
Same here I just saw it tonight
One of Detroit finest DeBarge I really do like it
Smooth! Love when a dude singer pulls off a falsetto!
They sound just like they did in the studio
Absolutely love this song! I was a Sophomore in high school when this came out.
They sound just like the recorded version on live. WOW!
This isn't an actual live performance.
You send chills up my spine, every time I think of you...

Some fine debarge brothers ❤❤❤ummm

Isto é maravilhoso !!👏👏👏
The ladies don't give no credit to El Debarge' Brother his brother song real good to lead it off you barely even hear his brother sing he deserve credit just as well as El Debarge to, don't give all the credit to El Debarge give it to his brother also
I agree....Randy sounds awesome...I personally like his voice better tho they sound very similar
Robby had a great voice and a great writer for the group. And sexy and very handsome. Why he was not in front of the group with his brother El. Show business I guess.
If you ever get a chance to watch the Bobby debarge story you'll find out alot. It was on TV one. Bobby and els voices are so similar
Bobby was singing lead for his group Switch who came out before DeBarge. That's why he wasn't in this group. He was already in a famous group. Plus he got on drugs and was messing up at this time
Wow
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bunny debarge brought me here
They just don’t make music like this anymore 😢
They played Ts out of them in that Tubi movie they was lookin like prince. Hella makeup
They sound amazing. The rhythm of them dancing is super inconsistent tho.
They debarge not the Jackson’s 😂😂😂😂 singing is all they can do
@@koreygrant157 but swaying on beat? 1 and 2?
I mean they were half breeds🤷🏽♂️
I thought the same. How can they sing so perfectly but be off beat with simple swaying? El admitted they were NOT good at dancing. That's they're white side.😂
Awe, look how cute baby El is. Where do you get all these videos?

Coco, he's been in the Business since he was a Teenager.
@@mysticakhenaton1701 I know! He was only 16 or something when he wrote time will reveal!

They all had their dads ears.
x1.25 speed gives you totally different song. Thanks me later
Feel like I'm in a club in the 80s, a time I wasn't even alive for lol.

Tommy sounds the same as El. All these years I thought El did the whole song...oops
You mean Randy...
Who is playing the musical instruments? Is this live or record to lip sync?
Lip sync
They should have let Mark sing more
Seee? El is not the lead in this song
What you know bout this?
I like it!
Comon my young ass love this 😊
There is a cut at 2:44 where they remove most of El's falseto section, totally tasteless and insulting removing the best part of the song.
He was not dressed pretty like the rest of the group. He had on like a cover on top of him. Like covering his body. Too bad
That’s not Soul Train. Those are not Soul Train audience members.
Yeah someone said it's from Solid Gold.
Hey Nelly stole a line from this song
Yeah he sampled it
