Belita Woods was the lead singer on one of the baddest jams of all time, “Loving Is Really My Game” by the late 70's group, Brainstorm. She passed away yesterday, 5/14/12. Here is that jam, in her memory. Hearing this song I STILL gotta get up and dance, arthritis and all! Rest in Peace, Belita!

I've heard it said that a great disco 12" single builds and builds the energy like a pressure cooker until it releases it and the dancers go wild as it is a sort of musical orgasm. If that is the case then this record has the hottest musical climax of any, and all of of us dancers needed a cigarette afterwards. (just kidding; no cigs but the beer and cocktails were flowing); it was a blast!. This was Brainstorm's best track in my opinion although I remember another one called "Hot for You". Sylvester did a re-make of this song; it is pretty good but not a volcano like this baby. I made the mistake of letting someone borrow my 12" copy of this and he never returned it so I bought it all over again. I consider this one of the best disco 12" singles ever made.

I can’t get no man Hanging out at the Disco-Tech Now I believe in the boogie Ohh but the Boogie don’t believe in me.... Classic line!!

The city was broke, the subways were filthy (and usually late), much of The Bronx was a burned-out wasteland, crime was rampant, Times Square was as seedy as could be, Son of Sam had just had all all in terror - and yet, just HEARING the awesome opening riff of this incomparable classic and I am LONGING to be right back in that Time and Place. The club scene then, well, you had to have been there to believe it. I'm sure the kids today are as devoted to their music and their clubs, but for all of us lucky enough to have LIVED 70s NY, we know the truth. Our fun was on a scale quite incomprehensible to the kids of today. 84 King Forever...

That's how it was in San Francisco, too, and I'm sure it was this way in many places across the country and around the world. That time and this music (any disco, really) made us all get up and dance the night away. We were younger, at least I was, and lived every day as if it were my last. I'm grateful to be alive today, so many of my generation are gone. But when I hear music like this, they're alive again, and for a moment, we can dance the night away, one more time!

I remember wearing out the Paradise Garage and Better Days dancing to this classic, feeling the waves of vocal and instrumental brilliance crashing over my youthful and energetic body. It was a magical experience. Christ, I'd give anything to be transported to to that transformative era!!!

disco just doesn't get much better than this. I'm proud to say I met Belita Woods and made sure I mentioned Brainstorm, and she seemed surprised (she was doing an in-store appearance with George Clinton). Rest in peace Belita, but I REFUSE to believe YOU couldn't "catch no man hangin' out at a discotheque", fine as you were.

Love this high energy song ! Takes me back to when I was 18 years old and loved to dance on Saturday nights in Atlanta.

I fell absolutely head over heals in love with this song the first time I heard it. It was the summer of 1998, I was 14 years old, and I was just discovering that I had a true passion and love for disco music. The movie 54 had just came out in theaters, so I begged my mom to take me to see it - which she did. That's where I heard Lovin' Is Really My Game for the first time. It's 24 years later now, and it is still my absolute favorite disco song of all time, and it always will be! 😁

It was exhilarating then and has not lost an ounce since.. what an incredible arrangement and holy crap, her voice!!! I will never ever forget the wonderful times back then.. the gay clubs, the sense of freedom and all despite the dark cloud of AIDS and bigotry, we never stopped dancing.. so glad progress has been made (though we still journey on). Songs like this leave an indelible mark and that rush of memories bring me right back as I crank this up dancing again at 65, thinking I’m 20 as I’m flooded with a euphoria that only the 70’s club scene made possible!

Oh and turning 60 at the end of August 2023.

My god - this is a special find for me... kinda hunting back to look up old vinyl albums I had as a kid. I was a little 10 year old white boy in a tiny town of Nova Scotia, Canada. I bought the Stormin' album at our record store at the mall. I was only a kid, and literally bought albums based on how the album cover art spoke to me. I will NEVER forget that chrome brain !!! Which is why I remembered today, in 2022, to look this up again. *I am kinda shaking and a bit tearful listening to this track right now* As I'm heading into my senior years, I think of how I was blessed with such a huge variety of music when I was a kid. I had no idea what Detroit Funk was... nor any knowledge or influence about race or "black music" in North America. A ton of my albums were from black disco & funk artists at the time - and I naturally loved it as much as everything else. Maybe even more. Hearing this as an adult, decades later - OH THE MAGIC. It was ALWAYS good - it's like a universal given. Now I have the ability and maturity to look up all the information about the band... My GOD - *BELITA WOODS* (RIP) What a freakin' QUEEN ... and *Lamont Johnson* on bass WOW - a master class! Even as a kid, that bass playing stood out to me. Didn't know why it was special - but now I can totally understand. I didn't even know this was a hit song !!! I just loved it, hands down. I'd say it's in the top 25 standout/remembered songs of my childhood. All because that chrome brain led me to pick it up and buy it. Was it fate? I cannot imagine never knowing or discovering this song.

Lamont Johnson was hot on this jam

Jesus, the entire heavenly host falls down on you like nothing you've ever experienced!!! I've experienced this masterpiece at the Paradise Garage,with Larry , in European clubs in the 90's and lastly at theMonster in Nyc pre Corona Virus. Damm I'd give anything to have my body beaten into submission by this masterpeice, again in Feb 2020!!!!!

When i went to the Casino, Russ Winstanley used to play this back to back with Eddie Holman's 'This Could Be A Night To Remember', by the time they'd finished you knew you were at an allnighter!

I had this disc back in the day.......memories of dancing too it in Baltimore and playing in my basement "disco"

This song just epitomizes a true disco jam. This is the 33 1/3 aka Disco version just represents the best in brass, woodwind, percussion and those beautiful strings of the violins. I was 15 years old when this song was release. The Motown sound was in full effect. During that era, we had so many local groups coming up in Detroit. That mid to late 70s still and away will have a special in heart and mind. At the cabarets in Detroit would also play Brainstorm. This high energy disco version song just gets me so excited when I listen to it.

This song. Along with the first two albums really were a mark of genius. This song was a perfect storm. Since this group I've been blessed to play in concert with or side by side a few of the Divas that could do justice to this song. Nobody can be what Belita was to this song. Nobody🎺

What brilliant disco music sounds like I'm sure millions of different dance groups could invent thousands of different dance styles to this song

This song is everything! RIP. Ms. Belita Woods.

So right, no song has ever made me feel a rush of the holy ghost like I feel with this masterpeice, my body moves like it did when I first heard it at The Paradise Garage spun by the Master Larry Lavan!!!! Every Angel in heaven falls down on me and lifts me up into pure bliss!!!

The strings are gorgeous! :)

The strings are what made this song so memorable. Strings have always added so much depth to all our disco cuts. Any song without strings remains a forgettable tune.!!!!!
