    I am a 65 year old black gay man. Listening to this in November 2024 and wondering “where did all those yesterdays go?” This song represents the best of living/ being in NY in the 70s and 80s. The music, (disco), the clubs, the fashion.These women are beautiful goddesses, without the need to twerk or be naked, bringing such joy with their music. Grateful to still be here and have these amazing memories. Unreplaceable………

It saddens me to learn those beautiful ladies have passed on. Makes you wonder what it's all about. As they sing where have all those yesterday's gone. They definitely don't make singers like they used to. Rest in peace beautiful ladies.

    This reminds me of a dear friend who passed away last year. He loved this song because he was a true native New Yorker.. couldn't imagine living anywhere else.. He grew up in either Mt. Vernon or New Rochelle I don't remember which but then lived all over the city for his adult life, Fordham, Staten Island, Sunnyside Queens (for a short time) and Woodlawn which is where he felt the most at home. He had to move in with a friend in Dobbs Ferry because of financial reasons.

    This song reminds me so much of my best friend that passed away maybe 30 years ago. I was maybe 14 and had just moved along with my parents, step brother, step sister to Croydon (The South of England) I knew no one at all. I can't remember exactly how we got introduced (His name was Trevor) but I soon found out he played bass guitar, he was self taught teaching himself of his Dad's bass. I was amazed and we soon became friends and I was soon begging my parents to buy me a Bass guitar which they did. We weren't a rich family so at the time it was a huge outlay. I would go to Trevors house and would patiently show me all the baselines he had worked out how to play by ear. These looking back where the best days of my life. Trevor soon after started to play guitar and we eventually got asked to join a band Trevor was always a better Bass player than me a his ear for music was unbelievable. He had a fantastic record collection some from his Dad but others he had purchased himself that was always a source of inspiration for us. I spent many hours even days in that house with him and his brothers watching videos eating oven chips whilst his Mum was at work nights and his Dad was away from home weeks on end. Trevor sadly passed away when he was maybe 17-18 years old. I remember being in the Doctors surgery oneway waiting to get seen and he came in with a girlfriend saying he had a headache and passed away few days later.I was devastated and that loss still affects me now 30/40 years later. This is one of the songs we would most doubt have listened to and learned and it reminds me of him as do many others. RIP Trevor Gittens xxxx
