    I'm an old white country boy and this song was popular when I was in high school. I have NO problem admitting that this is one of my all time favorites and I can sing it word for word!!!!! And no my comment has nothing to do with race just saying that great music doesn't see color or have boundaries!!

Too see him live ...mannnnn...the energy was banana's.. He is 73 and can blow these youngers cats at the water today.. Stage presence is bananas, voice is STRONG and CRYSTAL CLEAR. Energy is like he is 20 and performance wise..he commands your attention.

      was Lionel Ritchie with the Commodores at that concert you saw at MSG. That would have been a really bad ass, triple bill. btw…the brass players peel off of their hands on shoulders line up one at a time in a pirouette, keeping their feet to the beat. As you say, showmanship at its best.

    This performance let Jeffrey Osborne know that he was ready for Prime Time. He is a brilliant singer. Rarely misses a note. I had all of the LTD albums. Still have one of them.

    Jeffrey Osborne was the man 💪✊I love this song I've never seen him look this young I found about LTD long after his Whoo Whoo Whoo Days , but I heard the song just didn't no it was his old group and I've been listening to them every since

    Around the 2:50 mark . Always liked this breakdown/bridge of the song and it’s pretty cool live as well.
