FUN FACT: The boys in the video (Minus "Samms"), were ACTUALLY students at Eastside High when Joe Clark was principal.and they confirmed that he REALLY made them sing in the bathroom!
Jessica Webb Yes, they were Riff first. They had a single called "If You're Serious" that I used to play all the time. Then, a few of the guys moved on to join Men of Vizion.
'' *Ooh Lord*....'' I love that part when the guy sings it!! Never judge a book by its cover!! These guys were mad talented!! On Key!! Even Joe knew it!!! One of my favorites scenes of this movie.
That is a great song, but the clip left out the best part of the scene! Joe Clark grinning at Mrs. Powers when he congratulates her and tells her "Take a bow Mrs. Powers, you've rewritten our Alma Mater!"
fair eastside, by thy side we'll stand and always praise thy name praise thy name praise thy name to heaven, yeah lend our hearts and hands to help increase thy fame oh lord the honor yeah, of old eastiside high brings forth our loyalty loyalty loyalty so cheer for dear old eastside high lead on to victory"
this makes me so happy ! being that i graduated from EHS and got the privilege of leading this song at my graduation c/o 2015 & last year's graduating c/o 2014 💜 'Once a ghosts Always a ghosts' 🎓👻 #TeamEastside #Paterson
Black, white, spanish or asian. Everyone should know this movie. I worked with a woman and she went to school when Joe Clark was teaching there in Paterson. Nobody could have done a better job than Morgan Freeman. Classic movie.
I'm changing this to "By thy side I'll stand, and always praise thy name. To ever, lend my heart and hands to help increase their faith. The honor of Jesus Christ brings forth my loyalty." - Getting that small verse tattooed in cursive on my forearm. =]
"fair eastside, by thy side we'll stand and always praise thy name praise thy name praise thy name to heaven, yeah lend our hearts and hands to help increase thy fame oh lord the honor yeah, of old eastiside high brings forth our loyalty loyalty loyalty so cheer for dear old eastside high lead on to victory" All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. All aboard all aboard for Eastside High. Get on that train.
Its wild to see this cuz I just saw the guy with the curl last week! He now sings with Bishop Joe Clark! And the bright guy was with Bishop Darrell Mcfaddin!
the look on his face is PRICELESS!(It went from yeah right to ALL of yall aint soundin like THAT!)Riff was very underrated.Got caught up in that 90's singing group buzz and came and went with some of the rest.i beileve if they had some decent song writers that they would still be around(although some of them are in other groups now.last i heard dwayne best is a member of shai)

morgan freeman should have gotten an oscar nomination for this movie....
He should have won.

the most famous school song in history...
I love the fear of the principal in their eyes as they sing...singing so beautifully with those facial expressions
Loyalty, loyaltyyyyy! I wish Mr. Clark let them finish the song.
I know right???
I was hella mad they cut the part off
Lol!
Who tough you that

FUN FACT: The boys in the video (Minus "Samms"), were ACTUALLY students at Eastside High when Joe Clark was principal.and they confirmed that he REALLY made them sing in the bathroom!
Yes this is very true.. At that time they were a group called Men of Vision.. Now they called Riff..
Jessica Webb
Yes, they were Riff first. They had a single called "If You're Serious" that I used to play all the time. Then, a few of the guys moved on to join Men of Vizion.
This movie was back in 1989

NellyBelle shout to Riff. Talented group that probably never did enough. They could definitely sing but their catalog just doesn't tell you so
I love to hear black men making such beautiful music. There's something so poetic and refreshing about it. Wonderful!
That is a great song, but the clip left out the best part of the scene! Joe Clark grinning at Mrs. Powers when he congratulates her and tells her "Take a bow Mrs. Powers, you've rewritten our Alma Mater!"
