This R&B, Soul and blues from back in the day is the greatest music ever create on this planet! My mother and older relatives had great, great music to help get them through some rough time! I thank God for that!
I dig you! I spend spend time in Black Households and remember parents playing the blues. It was blasted in a stereo console in wee hour of the night. And I'm Asian! I notice something else with UTUBE kids, they over complement, but mean well LOL. But don't really feel it like you do. But then again I lived in tough housing projects in 1967 - 79 and that's all I listen to. Good reaction Greg to a reaction.
I tell every girl I meet, never ever love me, there are my reasons, I don't cheat, etc... I just bring ppl down. You will break my heart, but it's better than me breaking yours
A friend told me about her husband being abusive, until she told him, if it continues, she'd beat him in his sleep with a cast iron frying pan. That ended it.
"Thin Line Between Love & Hate" was their biggest hit in the 70's. A couple of other songs by them are "Love's Gonna Pack Up (& Walk Out)" & "Some Guys Have All The Luck".
Haven't heard that song in years, and the look on your faces was priceless, good song, but I expected that from a great channel, love you guys and thanks for bringing back the oldies lol.

The sweetest woman in the world Can be the meanest woman in the world If you make her that way, you keep on hurting her She keeps being quiet She might be holding something inside That really really hurt you one day
"I didn't think my woman could do something like this to me" -- It's great to see them perform this song live, but the studio recording draws out the musical emphasis behind the lyrics in far more chilling ways. "Thin Line Between Love and Hate" was The Persuaders biggest hit, breaking into the top twenty back in 1971. They also had a couple of top ten hits on the R&B charts in the seventies, "Love Gonna Pack Up (And Walk Out)" and "Some Guys Have All the Luck", a song Rod Stewart took to the top ten in 1984.
I relate 😪 I was her for 16 years. Then I cut that thin line. Been happy a long time now. Actions do speak louder than words. Love U Two and your reactions 💓
@@theresagallagher9161 Yes I think everybody fell in love with that song. I know they would really like it. I also loved - Baseball Game , United , Slow Drag & I Wanna Know Your Name. We were blessed with so much amazing music.
Shawn & Mel, from Wikipedia: Thin Line Between Love and Hate" is the title of a 1971 song by the New York City-based R&B vocal group The Persuaders. The song was written and produced by the Poindexter brothers, Robert and Richard, and was also co-written by Robert's wife, Jackie Members. The song was released in August 1971. This painful, tragic song tells a story about a man coming home early in the morning to find his wife waiting for him, seemingly unconcerned with his being out all night. But he warns against taking advantage of a woman's love and acceptance, because one day she might break -- advice he gives from his hospital bed. This song was #79 on NYC’s 77 WABC Top 100 of 1971.
My family and I use to watch Soul Train. Good days... good days. My parents were from Sicily and very much into all kinds of genre of music and I am so very grateful they raised my 4 siblings and I listening to the variety of genre of music. Thank you mama and papa. God rest your souls 🙏🏼 ❤️ I luuuuuuv love this song! YES! YES! YES! Mmm mmm 😍❤ You guys man... love watching your reactions!
Freakin’ GREAT!! This was also a FANTASTIC ERA for Soul!! I know all these songs, cuz this is what I grew up with in Junior High/High School in Oakland…..so many GREAT EXAMPLES of songs in this era….unbelievable stuff!!
Both of you guys had the best reaction out of all reaction videos I've seen.. I was laughing my A## off!!🤣🤣..Oh I love you guys👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽✌🏽 I have to watch it again. That reaction was Classic..
Shawn, look like this song put the fear of God in you😂 However, the song speaks the truth. A lot of guys have paid the price of mistreating their woman. It's best as the Temptations song says "Treat Her Like A Lady". Thanks for the reaction. Really enjoyed it!
After listening and watching this, I would know better than to do that to my woman. When I was younger, I considered this song to be a counter to all those songs that talk about cheating on your significant other (“Me & Mrs. Jones”). I don't think I wanna be Shawn sitting next to Mel after hearing that, but your reactions are damn priceless!
I memorized this vocal when I was a kid. "Didn't think my woman would do something like this to me..." I asked my friend if her dad (Black man) was nice to her mom (little Japanese woman) because she was Asian. She said, "Yeah, after she stabbed him."
priceless reaction, lol.....yeah, most of us true R&B old heads have, for decades, known, have LIVED & will, Even Today, instinctively & WITHOUT SKIPPIN' A BEAT, know how to finish that line: "the SWEETEST woman in the world, could be the MEANEST woman in the world........... (#if #YOU #MAKE #her #that #way)
You guys are so funny: “nothing open at 5AM but legs!” 🤣🤣 What do you think she did? Run his @** over? Lol…They made a movie titled “A Thin Line Between Love and Hate” with Martin Lawrence. Funny AF!
This song is so toughing and bring backs so memorys. I was so lucky to know someone who I loved so much but he's deceased now. It didn't work out for us. I couldn't reach him. I lost and so did our children. I cry when I hear this song.
Great song from the Persuaders. You guys should listen to the Pretenders’ cover of this song where lead singer Chrissie Hynde sings the song from the wife’s perspective with her unique voice. 👍🏽🙏🏽✌🏽🇺🇦♥️
This was real with couples back when I was younger...just ask my first husband...come home one too many times at 2 n the a.m....met a broom stick from feet to head...FOR REAL
Wow! I have never heard that song before. I love the Soul Train videos. As Tyler Perry would say "I think she hit him with a grit ball!" :) Seriously though, very very powerful song.
Stone Cold Sweet Soul.these guys had a lot of other great records here's a few.Let's get down together. Love gonna pack up.Trying girls out. Mr Sunshine. The original version of some guys have all the luck was a big hit for Rod Stewart.A lot of their records were written & produced by singer song writers The Poindexter brothers Richard & Robert.These guys as well as the Persuaders. Are so underrated & underappreciated.The Poindexter brothers.wrote or cowrote coproduced some of the best soul records to come out of the 60s/70s. Also gotta say guys that's got to be one of the best reactions I've ever seen you made me chuckle 😆✌️♥️
@@jdw5678 Which Pretenders are you referring to, the original soul & R&B act .or that fake group of Pretenders that stole their name with Christie Hynde on lead vocals?

What I can’t believe is that I am so old that I used to listen to this as a kid. You can’t compare music today to the music back then
Me Too , Isn't it the Best Though?!

You're not 🚫 older you're gotten better,wiser and happened to remember that kid listening to this.😅
I have to admit, sometimes I still find it hard to believe you guys have never heard some of these classic songs... Especially in Black households.
lol
Agree

Me either, I was blessed to listen to mom and dad music from the beginning of "Our " rock n roll, and the early 60's music
You took the words right out of my mouth.. My sister said she think they lying just to get views😆
Men dont like the questions. But when a woman doesnt ask questions thats when they should worry. Lol
In the hospital? In a state of shock!
I tell every girl I meet, never ever love me, there are my reasons, I don't cheat, etc... I just bring ppl down. You will break my heart, but it's better than me breaking yours
@@davidmanka5953 That is truly sad not to be loved!

I loved loves gonna pack up I have not heard it in years
He was bandaged from head to foot because he closed his eyes to sleep
Over and out... Great reactions from you guys..
I always loved this song as a kid. If only i actually paid attention and followed the words of this song when i was older :(
I never missed a Soul Train show! Damn, they had the best shows and artists.
I remember the movie too. The song is just as crazy lol.
Haven't heard that song in years, and the look on your faces was priceless, good song, but I expected that from a great channel, love you guys and thanks for bringing back the oldies lol.
That's a famous line.... Thin line between love and hate..... And a soulful song that will never get old. Ty for playing.
OMGGGGGGGGGG Mel !! "There's nothing open at 5 o'clock then LEGS"!!!!!!!!! LMAO- GREAT QUOTE!
Don,t let quietness FOOL YOU
This R&B, Soul and blues from back in the day is the greatest music ever create on this planet! My mother and older relatives had great, great music to help get them through some rough time! I thank God for that!
Best beauty of the old school music it had😊 it had a lesson
The sweetest woman in the world
Can be the meanest woman in the world
If you make her that way, you keep on hurting her
She keeps being quiet
She might be holding something inside
That really really hurt you one day

There aren't too many images to convey the ominousness of this song.
I think the Leaflet from the movie 'The Exorcist' does an excellent job.
She had something bad waiting for him .She should have gotten an academy award for her performance.LOL.
My my my🤕. This is quite a song and could open a lot of eyes & hearts! Loved your reaction ☮️🇨🇦💜
I relate 😪 I was her for 16 years. Then I cut that thin line. Been happy a long time now. Actions do speak louder than words. Love U Two and your reactions 💓
Shawn got me screamin'!
#ShawnandMel ... Shawn you better watch out, Mel was smiling all the time he was talking about being in the Hospital.... You better ACT RIGHT!!!! LMBO
I love this song reminds of my teenage days in High school, what a jam ♨️
Haven't heard this in years, Mom played it among many others. Now thanks to you guys I'm replaying these songs for her.
This why we call it grown folks music!!!!!!!!
This is real SOUL music to me....can't get much more real than this -the words, the style, etc..ONe catchy tune that you never forget.
Woah I was not expecting that
Oh I remember this song lol. I suggest The Intruders- Cowboys To Girls & I’ll Always love My Mama ( Both performed on Soul Train).
...'Cowboys to Girls'. The Daisy air rifle, Fanner Fifty, and Colt .45 that used 'Greenie Stick-em Caps' began to gather dust at this age.
I'll always love my momma.... omg loved that song. Hope it gets played. Would love to see their reactions!🙌

That food got Rusty Iron shavings from the head of the axe!!
"Too much Iron in Your Blood!!!"🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
That lead singer was fiya🎉🎉❤❤❤
I met the man and this was very personal for him, that’s why he wrote the song and you can hear it in his voice.
She dogged him out. Hell has no fury like a woman scorned..
Man...it's been forever since I heard this one..y'all taking it back lol...y'all gotta do some Blue Magic and The Stylistics now...love this
Please do the Dramatics, “What You See is What you Get” love you guys! Peace ✌🏼
Wow last time I heard this i was in 9th grade. Thanks. And now I understand the song
This is real music.
Mel your face had me rolling. LOL!
Remember that Willie Nelson got sewn in the sheets and a broomstick was taken to him by his first wife.
wow didn't know that.
After listening and watching this, I would know better than to do that to my woman.

I waited for your reaction, priceless 🤣
Shawn, you kill me! "Baby please forgive me" 😂
Your down to earth reactions. 5 o'clock in the morning. Did you eat yet? Hilarious.

My absolute favorite part of this video starts at point 6:47. Shawn had me screaming with laughter.
Definitely one of your best reactions.
I love u two reactions to the old school songs
H-Town did an amazing cover of this joint worth checking out!
But the Persuaders is scary and serves as a cautionary tale to never abuse the ones you love.
Among others The Pretenders did a great cover of this song.
The Pretenders did what I consider to be the definitive version of this song.
I agree!
i agree as well
Pretenders is a good version, but THIS is the definitive one. Can't beat the soulful original.
First heard it by The Pretenders as their remake and only much later did I hear this original version. Love them both.
