At the hospital due to swelling in my head and had a procedure done, woke up a day ago or so. Needed music so my wife brought me my iPad n speaker.

+David Smith First heard this when I moved to Philadelphia in the late 80s and I could not get enough. I begged the Dj to play it every night I went. Good memories
I'm a 90s baby, but it's beautiful to see the comments of people of older generations reminiscing about their club days to these beautiful tunes. I hope to one day experience a party w/out phones and just genuine human connection. House music has the power to do it. House music for life. 😍😍
Same man. I'm 17 and I can't get enough of these 80s/90s house songs. Makes me wanna party in a club in that era, but sadly- I was born way after. At least I can enjoy this shit nowadays, thanks RUclips.
I've been at it for 26 years, and Inner City live in DETROIT for Movement/DEMF 2010, Good Life, is still the best moment ever out of thousands of best moments!!!
Nothing compares to the first five or six years of house music. Nothing comes remotely close, it was the absolute zenith of dance music and a time so pure and unadulterated, free of horrible beer sponsors and beefed up wankers giving it large. Everyone was clued up, had choice taste and knew the score. It'll never happen again, that's for sure.
Sometimes I worry about the fact, that there are people who think, they're not fitting the scene because of their age. A lot of very influencing DJs and Producers are above 70 years now. House is universal and House has always been the essence of 70s Funk and Disco.
Imagine hearing this drop in the club on a good night out. No wonder historians call '88 the second summer of love. Of course it was tough living under Reagan and Thatcher, but at least there was music that made you remember that life isn't all that bad.
This mix of Goodlife was the very first House track I ever heard. I was 14 and I was immediately in love with House. It's my all time favorite track and this mix especially... A friend had mixed it back and forth with this other great piano house tune...
I'm an 80s chick, and 90s house music was totally awesome in NYC. Does anyone remember Kung Fu in the 80's every Saturday afternoon. It was Soul Train, then Kung Fu. Good times that will never be repeated.
I remember! Me and my pops used to watch on channel 5 at 3pm every Saturday! When we saw that Shaw Brothers logo, we knew it was gonna be some good ish!
Yasss...freshly moved to San Francisco in '93, just beginning to explore club life, and hearing this JAM at a queer club and thinking, "YEAH. THIS IS WHAT A GOOD LIFE FEELS LIKE." Happy nostalgia...
I remember buying the album paradise on cassette, as lad of 16 years old way back in 1989. How times change. Still feel like a teen deep down! This Album seriously needs a remaster and expanded version!
i was 9 when i heard this on the radio changed my life forever i learned what house music was ,it was running through my body never knew anything like it before now im 41 and still love this
The perfect house record. This remix is my favourite. It will never grow old, always be a reference, always draw a tear to my eyes when I drop it. This is house in its purest form. Thank you Kevin Saunderson: you're a visionary.
I was born in the 90's, but I totally wish I could've been born in the late 70's so I could experience the NY house scene and 90's golden era hip hop, love it
Simply can’t never resist to this. Everytime same story. I’m here on the couch with my hands up and my head is moving without control. Pure magic this is
There's something so upliftingly otherworldly about this. It takes my soul to another plane. I miss the days where I was transported by superb music to a feel good place.
Always thought it was neat how the old Sega games sampled and were inspired from this great era of House, Pop and other Electronic music. I immediately got Streets of Rage 2 vibes listening to this.
"it's still better than half the stuff on the radio in 2020." Half? More like the vast majority, general music is trash nowadays ESPECIALLY compared to this golden sound.
I first heard this version of this tune on Centreforce 883 a few years ago, I had to know what version of 'Good Life' this was. This is the best version!!
OMFG!!! I've been listening to music like this for decades. Very familiar with Good Life, but not this version until now. All I gotta say is I had to change my drawers after listening!! God-DAMN!!
Isn't it awesome how you can hear a song and then remember exactly where you were and what you were doing!!?? For me, this is one of those. 1988/1989. I was 18 year's old and serving in the USAF in England!! The home of great Dance/Electronic/House/Techno Music. OMG those were the day's!! 🔊🕺🔊💃🔊 I play this song regularly today when I want to be transported back in time to a better world. 🙏🏻💓✌🏼💛✌🏼💙
Spring of 2021, pandemic restrictions calm down & post studying college work, I’ll rent a Citibike in New York City at midnight & ride down the West side river starting from 96st to the World Trade Center & back. I’m happy I re found this song. I lost it & it came back on my algorithm. Feels almost as running into an old friend ✨
This jam throws me back to the 80's, me and my fine ass girl friend (now my gorgeous wife) cruzing down Lake Shore Drive on my white convertible Buick Riv playing The Good Life!!!
I had 22 years in 1989 and now I have 53 , still near 54 years in a few months and I arrived to this age, for me its a miracle have arrived to 53, having survived to the plagues from.our time, Aíds, drugs,never I used drugs, never liked me and maybe by this I,m.here and cause god allow it
@@sylvialupehernandez9154 In fact, GOOD LIFE was released in 1988 shortly after BIG FUN. The album (PARADISE, in the UK, and BIG FUN, in the USA) was released in 1989.
Omg! Dancing until the mornings in Amsterdam. Preparing with Friends with make up and clothes was just exciting as the night itself. Every friday and saturday night. What a privilege knowing these days with this music. I can die in peace. 😉😊. Sorry for the youth nowadays worldwide. Enjoying yourself with Friends and music is punishable now. Feel so sad for them. Youth is only once in a lifetime and very short. Hope you all have time enough being young in freedom. It is too important.
Partied in the 90's to all the most delicious house music, drum n bass, jungle, ragga, Aotearoa Roots, gangsta rap - all in Wellington, NZ - clubs like Willys Wine Bar, La Luna, Tatou, Sandwiches, Zebos, The Globe, all the Shed's on the wharf - daaaam i was lucky!!!!! This takes me right back there to those ecstasy fuelled nights and days and nights and days and nights!!!!!!!
Anything and or everything good in life comes with this vibe, the memories of yesteryear come flooding back in an instance. Peace ✌️ love ❤️ and unity 🤝 to all listening in Nov twenty two 🌞🙏❤️🇬🇧❤️🙏
🤩🥰😍We had Great times. Friday and Saturday Nights LIVE! Even through the social woes of drugs and gun violence in that crack era. This music took you away, if not for kust a little while. BUT WE'D BE TIRED AS HELL by the time the music ended on a extended super mix...1500 hours of non-stop dancing 'cause you can out dance anyone....lol
See this is perfect 90's house music!!! And man time is moving quick you dont notice it till you hear a great song you heard on the radio then realize that is 30 years old and your 30 years older GOOD LIFE

A tune for the hips. Happy, Happy House, a mick mills and away you go. Great times, friendly times. crazy times, rave on. Im 50 this year. I will always be that wee lad with his hands in the air and a grin on his face.
Man I wish dance music was still uplifting, and beautiful like this. It just fills up your soul. Now these days, it’s all about who can drop the hardest, bang the hardest, and blah blah blah!
What a beautiful era life is brutal now
Life is what you make of it ... but I get you...
Totally agree. I need this music and good energy right about now.

god i thought i was the only 41 year old still loving this lol
I wasn't around for any scene back in the day but I love this!
I am not kidding. When I heard this after 25+ years I started tearing up. Where did music like this go? I miss the House Nation days.
Agreed. This is one of those song that gets me in so many feels!
evolve or get left in the dust that's where it went
I completely agree.
I wouldn’t call the music industry today an evaluation….🧐
WE must educate and pass it on! Point blank!
I'm a 90s baby, but it's beautiful to see the comments of people of older generations reminiscing about their club days to these beautiful tunes. I hope to one day experience a party w/out phones and just genuine human connection. House music has the power to do it. House music for life. 😍😍
Those parties are out there! All it takes is the collective will of enough people who have a love for music and human connection, and bam, it's there.
If you live in the UK Field Maneuvers does that
Detroit has some excellent clubs playing more modern techno, but have that old warehouse vibe to them. Great atmosphere.
Word !!!!
house is good life
I wasn´t even born then and I miss those days.
I was born from músic and loads of acid

I was too young and missed it but still wish I witnessed it first hand
I love these comments 💞
So glad the younger generation appreciates real music still! They just don't make them like they used to!
You know when you've done well as a parent when your child reminds you of classic bangers you've forgotten through the bedroom wall. Go on girl

Nothing compares to the first five or six years of house music. Nothing comes remotely close, it was the absolute zenith of dance music and a time so pure and unadulterated, free of horrible beer sponsors and beefed up wankers giving it large.

You never know! Underground scene is not to be underestimated my friend ;)
Sometimes I worry about the fact, that there are people who think, they're not fitting the scene because of their age. A lot of very influencing DJs and Producers are above 70 years now. House is universal and House has always been the essence of 70s Funk and Disco.
