Who is listen this song in 2024?
Brings me back to the 80s and early 90s when I was in Germany. Killer stuff. Janis Siegel is the bomb.
DEFINITELY LISTENING.
Just played it on my Twitch stream last week!
🙋🏾♂️
I am, now
Rod Temperton was a genius. His music lives on. Manhattan Transfer took this song and made it their own. A jam for lifetime.
This was a song that Rod Tempertom wrote for Michael Jackson for Thriller. Michael recorded a demo for it but it was later scrapped from Thriller (Michael chose Baby Be Mine over this) and the Manhattan Transfer ended up covering it, and what a jam it was! 👏🏽
Always liked this. Surprised and not surprised Rod Temperton was behind it.
Rod Temperton is a badd dude!👏(Unsung also)
Rod Temperton is JUST NOW getting his just do recognition!(he's been "unsung" for a long time!👏
Love it!
Really? I never knew this.
Great tune. Timeless!!! Rod Temperton pure genius
I can’t believe that I did not know Stevie Wonder played the harmonica on this jam. Should have known. Manhattan Transfer really did a good job on this. Timeless❤
Greatest jazz singing group ever. And much more.
Brilliant singers ,and Harmonising, that track was supposed to go on the Thriller album, but changed it and put ,Baby be mine instead, and roders gave the song to M Manhaten Transfer,, looking back was the right thing to do 🎉🎉
That woman's swagger is through the roof, Janis is a legend.
Manhattan Transfer + Rod Temperton + Stevie = Too good for words!!
Could very easily have gone onto Quincy Jones The Dude album, brilliant song 😬👍
@@Louisejames23 It is being said that Michael Jackson did record demos of Spice Of Life and Mystery
rod Temperton was a great composer of sophisticated funky tunes and Manhattan Transfer where is superb 4 voice Harmony singing group...this one is one of my favs
He was the genius and treasure of the world. Far too young to be gone.
When I found a good music and tried to find the composer, a lot of them was written by Rod.
Such a classy song. Sets you in the mood for a saturday night out
The early 1980's had a few great songs like this. But Manhattan Transfer is doing it like no one else.
You can tell she's having an absolute blast singing this song.
Man i used to love this group!! They sang they had good rhythm!!
There will never be a better four-part harmony group than Manhattan Transfer.
TAKE 6 is good too, However MT is Monumental. Love them.
Totally agree!!
You are so right!
@@tinkhix 100% agree
Debarges
Timeless music. Thank you Rod Temperton. Rest Peacefully amongst the Giants.😢😢😢
Proper comment....Big up, SIR!
Respect!
Charles Mcbride Had to look up Mr. Temperton. Amazing stuff so many songs!! Died too young😔
You could tell this joint was written / produced by the same guy who did Michael Jackson's "Baby Be Mine." The lead singer also sounds like Randy Crawford, who sang "Street Life."
Rod cast his net far and wide in the music world,great writer and member of the fabulous Heatwave with Jonny Wilder who died tragically after he was paralysed following an auto accident.
Janis Siegel - what a voice
I remember that this song briefly charted on the AT40 and I heard it only couple times on the radio back in 1983. It is a totally underrated song.
It was massive in UK
Definitely deserve Consideration for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Janis Siegel. What a voice. Love the Stevie Wonder harmonica solo too.
YES!!!
Yess
I knew it!
Stevie's harmonic solo is the cherry on top of this song.
1980
Love them. My teenage years.
Yeah baby!!!!
Happy days! I'm in tears with joy!
This is one of my favorite songs by MT. One of the best jazz vocal groups ever! Rod Temperton did songs for Michael Jackson, Karen Carpenter, and of course the Manhattan Transfer. Incredible. Janis Siegel and Team delivered a hit like no others.❤
I didn't know Rod Temperton did this song, that explains why it sounds exactly like Michael Jackson's song Baby Be Mine.
This is so as Spice Of Life is one of the songs shortlisted for Thriller album, Quincy gives a green light to this song, but Rod and MJ rejected it. If not Spice Of Life is Michael Jackson’s song in Thriller album.
素晴らしいの一言です!!
Agree with you 100% .... this also my favourite song from MT... 🥰😍
Chooooon!!
R. I. P. ROD TEMPERTON ❤️
HELLÓ Gigi
Yes, this has that familiar grooviness of all those Heatwave tunes. Yes, Rod Temperton was the bomb.
Never tire of this song or Manhattan Transfer. First class
Yes, that Mr Stevie Wonder on harmonica !!
One of my absolute favorites 1983!!❤
Wow this group is amazing I miss their music,I remember them when I was a teenager. Love your music
Manhattan Transfer I'm lost for words extraordinary and blessed by the Lord to sing like this
Always loved Janis Seigel's vocal style. Their versatility allowed them to do jazz. pop, R&B and more.
I love this band a great jazz group 😁👍
Somewhere in the vaults of Sony and MJ Estate there's a version of this with Michael Jackson vocals , the track was considered for the Thriller album in 1982
Not only is their harmony second to none, their showmanship is top-notch too. The way Janis looks directly into the camera just to her right, Cheryl taking over vocals for a few bars, her animated finger-snapping, they give you something to watch, not just listen to.
TAKE 6. and After. Nothing
@@edoardozampetti4601 Then why are you here? To rain on people's parade? Who asked you? I didn't. Go click on a Take 6 video and leave us alone to enjoy the Manhattan Transfer.
Forty years ago The Manhattan Transfer spiced things up with Spice Of Life!
Love the bald guy- looks like frasier crane- or someone's uncool dad dancing- but is actually fantastic mover- absolutely love this tune
Tim Hauser, the founder of the group.
Unfortunately he passed away on October 16th, 2014 RIP 🌈
I wish they made more songs like this....
Loving this song my 47 year old self just as I did in my teens lol
Superb
Omg I remember the 1st day it came out even now it still gives me an up lifting feeling today 2023 amazing song I miss those days brilliant times 👏👏👏🏴
Such an underated group - amazing
love their dance and harmony (from Korea)
Still listening while I’m painting! Love them. Saw the once in concert.
Always liked this. Surprised, but then again not surprised that Rod Temperton wrote it.
What a great Manhattan Transfer video! I like the choreography. And Janis Segal's lead vocals are spot-on. I believe Stevie Wonder supplied the harmonica riff at the 2:00 mark. Lots of fun!
That's also him on Chaka Khan's "I Feel For You."
Sure sounds alot like Baby Be Mine from 1982. The year prior to this. Both great tunes by the fantastically talented Rod Temperton. RIP. Derek Bramble is another favorite.
I never listened to "Baby Be Mine", and I really don't have the urge to. Although, if it's anything like the similarity between "Watching You" by Slave and "Inside Out" by Odyssey - I might give it a shot.
@@martyemmons8692 You mean your never listened to the Thriller album?
@@Underhills, no I never bought the Thriller album. Do you know what I mean by similarity between Slave and Odyssey?
@@martyemmons8692 I don't think those tunes are as similar to Spice of Life as Baby Be Mine. But as mentioned both tracks are penned by Rod Temperton. I find it hard to believe you never listened to the biggest selling album of all time. ruclips.net/video/O3tnOVideSo/видео.html
@@Underhills, okay I'll listen to "Baby Be Mine". But, "Thriller" is not a song that I like. I guess I prejudged the album based on the title song.
I just listened to "Baby Be Mine" it is similar. But I still like the Manhattan Transfer song.
Sounds fantastic still today!! 😘🎶🕺🎶
What a nice band!
Damn!! I had only associated this group with jazz and doo wop. What a treat! Absolutely love this song and a very well produced! This song only makes me want to smile and dance 😀🕺🏽
Man, these folks really created some magic with "Spice Of Life"! There's no genre that can contain this song. Critics would have to use words like fusion and a few / (slashes).
POV: blind assassin and an invisible satellite
Jojo reference
Janis what a voice!!
After many years this is marvelous! Zoltán from Hungary
This group is sensational!!! Keep Singing!!!!
ONE OF THIER BEST SONGS EVER.
This was my jam! Love this group! Manhattan Transfer was off chains!
Mr. Steveland Morris on the Harmonica!😎
STILL LOVING THIS!
Still good
I'm still listening during the pandemic.
Loved watching them do this song on Soul Train.
Saw these talented four folks live several times back in the days. And I'm a sixty-four year old "brutther!" Got to taste the spice of life, especially these days!
Puxa, quanta saudade!!!! Manhattan Transfer, um dos melhores grupos de todos os tempos!!!!
Janis ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ what a voice......they all had wonderful vocals.....greatest vocal group ever x R.I.P Tim Hauser - you were a genius!!
Looks like four 80s stockbrokers have jumped up at the office karaoke!
Banger of a tune
The transfers best track for me.
40 years later and I'm still listening. It sounds that good.
Iam into my R&B in a big way and I had totally forgotten this tune by M/Trans ...quality tune from an unexpected source.....
Alan Paul, you got da moves, man!
This was my all-time favorite of theirs. Just the best. They were not big on the dance moves but they did not have to be. They could SANG!!!
Great energy and enthusiasm in this song by Manhattan Transfer
GOD Bless them....Man, I loved their music so much back in the day....
I've always loved that song.
My favorite ManTran album, Bodies and Souls....
Damn this song and video are the definition of the 80s for me
Got here because I searched the lyrics of the song. I was hearing this way back when I was a child in the 80s and then during studying in college during 1998-2000. It just hit me when I finished driving trying to catch the lyrics of look for the song and guessing the artist
Unmistakable Stevie Wonder Harmonica solo
oh please!.... bring back great music!! class! love this tune so much timeless!
LA Session legend J.R. Robinson layin the drum track!
Thankyou
@@johnjrrobinson4527 you are welcome Sir! Big fan here!!
@@johnjrrobinson4527 you're an amazing drummer. I hope to meet you 1 day
Magnifique j ai cherché cette chanson ça fait plus de 30 ans !!! UN VRAI COUP DE FOUDRE À 9 ANS. Nyota
Sublime 🎧
Rod Temperton, Cleethorpe's finest
...a HIGHLY underrated tune, swapped for "Baby Be Mine" for Michael Jackson's "Thriller" Album, finds the 'Transfer' ditching their "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy In New York City" image, and snazzin' it up, with 80's contemporary GLAM...their FINEST era, courtesy of Rod Temperton....
Solo un genio come Rod Temperton poteva scrivere un capolavoro del genere
Wow, I'm a new fan. How did I miss them in the 80's??
Kewl. They look like some of my random neighbors. Yet they are carrying the soul molecules.
💕 love this song
From " Bodies & Souls", 1982, written by Rod Temperton. ---------WolfSky9
The greatest band in the Universe !
(Obituary jojo reference) but actually this is pretty good
Как поют ! Вот это музыка ! А то слушают некоторые всякий мусор, наподобие пугачёвой, киркорова, орбакайте, БИ-2, земфиры, бузовой, газманова... The Manhattan Transfer - is one of the best bands in the world.
So Nice I Hadda Play It Twice !!! Sweet Manhattan Transfer Harmonies and We Know What Rod Temperton Does . .
That dance routine in the beginning! Hot damn
Should have been a bigger hit than it was - the closest MT got to mainstream pop and they did it brilliantly on a Rod Temperton gem.
Great song. Happy times love it man
The 360 group i call them, they can sing how ever they will turn things around and a minute.
harmonica stevie wonder
Seen them in concert at Caesar's Palace in the 80s man they put a out of this 🌎 concert my dad and some cousins went with us they were bragging cuz they got to go we all lv them they were awesome
Beautiful song!!
Outstanding tune. This band represents an awesome era!
For a time they blasted the sound waves with being the dominant group of having the most powerful vocals. Asia was pumped with this quartet!
This is favorite from them 1983
Cool musick from a long Times! This is orginal beat jazz thank you
RIP, Rod Temperton .-------------------This is from '82 --------------how i wish i could go back !! 2020 is just a terrible year. -------------------------WolfSky9, 73 y/o
So was 2021 and what is left of 2022
I became aware of MT with "Chanson d'amour" in 1976, and "Birdland" shortly after that. But when I heard this in '83 - it was like someone had switched the light on.
And here we are 39 years later in 2022 - and it's even more amazing than it was back then!
Simply and utterly magnificent.
Wow that’s Michael Jackson baby be mine a great tune rod tempelton was a great producer
