@@kiphayes4572 ironically, my fav song from them is "Itchin For a Scratch"... 1984 was best time in my life.

Think about this. In 30 years from now no one will remember Sexy Redd but people will still love this song. Love songs forever.

Yes Ashley, this is the original and they had some nice songs with their Harmony and the lead singer. Antoine "T C D" Lundy died of Lou grig's disease. Trisco Pearson I believe died of cancer. Jesse Lee Daniels passed away and DJ Dr. Rock died of natural causes. May they all rest in peace 🙏🏾

One of the most underrated groups of all time!!!! They were hip-hop pioneers and tore up the R&B and Pop charts as well with those sweet silky voices. Most have passed on. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The Force MD’s made MAGIC back in the day💯

You're tearing up because we will never get this kind of music back....

MY ERA IS UNDEFEATED!!!!!🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯 MUSIC FOR YOUR MIND,,,SOUL & SPIRIT!!!!!🤎🤎🤎

Those were some of Jimmy Jam's favorite chord voicings. He used some of them again later on on "On Bended Knee" for Boyz II Men.

Yes, the 80’s - this song was featured on the soundtrack for the classic movie Krush Groove! The Force MD’s were highly underrated. They were one of the first groups to overall entertain singing, rapping and dancing. You should listen to their songs Love Is A House and Here I Go Again - bangers!🔥🔥🔥🔥

Force MD's "Love is a House" !!!!!

You're such a sweetie tearing up. I love how u react to our generations music ❤

One of the most beautiful songs ever made.

This song is perfect in every way. What real R&B love sounds like.

Force MDSss had some bangers!!!

Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis strikes again. 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥

There was nothing negative or confrontational about the original…only pure love.

Oh this brings back Donnie Simpson and Video Soul flashbacks who knows what I'm talking about 😊

After working all day it was a blessing to see The Force performing on the ferry. "We came to the party about one o clock to take out all MCeeees!!" Shoalin, NYC

This song still gives me chills after all of this time

One of the most recognized love songs of the 80's, released in 1985. Everybody was playing this for their lady. Was from the sound track from the movie "Krush Groove". Check that movie out on your movie reaction channel.

Jam & Lewis really had folks in a choke hold in the 80s, man.

MD's stands for "Musical Diversity'. The decade of the 80s gave us the last era of true R & B groups and artist who sang what used to be called "Soul Music". There were recording artist who could actually sing whether in the studio or live in concert. Around 1986 one of the last of these groups The Force M. D.'s emerged out of Staten Island, N.Y. with the song "Tears". In 1987 "Tender Love", a song also included on the "Krush Grove" soundtrack and "Love Is A House", ensured them a place in music history as one of the last groups to successfully fuse Do-Wop and R & B. Although there were a few like R. Kelly who continued to keep R & B alive, in reality, R & B music died in the 90's and was buried by the cross-over general market success of Rap and Hip-Hop music. The Force M. D.s who were discovered while they were actually singing for their supper on the Staten Island Ferry for tips. They were extremely talented. Every member of the group could actually sing and their harmony was tight. 4 of the original 5 members are now deceased.

🔥🔥🔥Very Very Talented Group..They Sing And Rap. This Was A Hit Back In The Day..

this one of my favorite songs and groups ever force mds best ever.

ITS OK MRS ASHLEY,,,,THIS TIMELESS CLASSIC BY FORCE MD'S PRODUCED BY JIMMY JAM & TERRY LEWIS HAD EVERYBODY HOOKED!!!!!!🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

My freshman year of high school. I was still 13. 1985-86 school year. Great memories. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis said they just threw this song together in a rush for the soundtrack to Krush Groove! This is before we really knew who they were. They went on produce Janet Jackson and the SOS Band.

That piano melody is a tearjerker. The singing is cool, but I really think that the piano is the star of the show.

Since you're unfamiliar with them, it would have been nice if you could've seen the video, but they have other songs too, so you can still get the chance.

This is a sweet little song. Tender Love by the Force MD's is from 1985 so I think it is the original! Most of these 2000 and later R&B/HipHop songs are remade/remixed in some form or another.💖💖

I was a 'new' teenager when this song came out. My Dad would NOT let me sing it!!!! 🤐🤣

Yes, this is the original, WAY before the version you heard in the early 2000's.

This song was the epitome of romance when I was a kid.

Back in the day there was a thing called 'biting' that referred to stealing another person's style, moves, music, etc. When the West Coast gangster rap prevailed a lot of the old beats were 'used'/sampled from other songs and it became a typical theme. Now there is a big copywrite problem and everybody's granny is being taken to court. That's why the originals have so much weight. Also, the originals had a certain kind of meaning behind the song as well. Things have become twisted-a lot. And it has changed/damaged our society and way of life a lot as well. ⭐

Ashley Thanks So Much For Reacting To Baby Face, Force MD's & Jodeci, I've been Trying To Request Those For Months With No Luck😢 But Here's Another 1 By Jodeci That You're Gonna Love 👌"I Wanna Do Right" I've Been Doing Wrong For So Dam Long & "Shhh" By Telvin Campbell 👍& Here's 2 For The Ladies 👌"Guess What" By Syleena Johnson & "Make Him Do Right" By Karen White, Just To Name a Few, But There's So Many More I'll Keep Trying To Request 👌

"I almost slobbed ya'll." 😂

Classic!

Oh wow thanks for dropping this track…brings back so many memories ❤

Hello Ashley, I just recently came across your channel. I wanted to tell you that I enjoy your reactions when most others I don't, because you have heart, intelligence, and obviously some wisdom as you seem to be blessed with some great women in your family. So many people of the Modern world are foolish and insufferable. Thank you for the warmth and light you bring. It takes someone of quality to appreciate quality.

This is a talent show classic. A group of guys in my middle school sang this at ours. They weren’t that good but the girls went crazy anyway. 🥹😂😂

Back in my young day when I thought I was a "Macaroni"....LOL...Call a young lady on the phone, then put the phone close to the speaker and let this play...Thought I was FLY...Then when it go off, I ask, "You like that?", and her Mother says, " You ain't getting nothing Tender over here, and I am going to tell her Father when he gets home"!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

"Tender Love" is super 80's classic! You could have kept that Trina trash though.

You need to get into Patrice.Rushen a very talented singer song writer and Music producer you need to listen to the songs Remind me, forget me nots, and also high and me. You will not be disappointed , get your pen ready!!

I was in high school when this came out. I told everyone that I was going to conceive my children to this & "Careless Whisper" by Wham...lol Never had any children, but this is STILL my jam!!!!

Force MD,s started out a a rap group then Jimmy Jam and Terry found out the couple harmonize.

Hey Ashley, another Slow Jam that this white boy, well white boy back in the day (now 58) absolutely loves. Hugs

This is the original song and it was released in late 1985.

One of the best jams girlie like I said before I was born in 1969 and as a child my ears were against the radio speakers switching from AM/FM radio stations take all genres in. I tell all my young siblings this story it was great times I tell ya! And from a youngster till my teenage yrs I was Dj for all family events & my moms Fashion shows. Great Times!!

It appears it was not a remake, but someone who used part of another person or groups song portion in their own song. This is referred to as SAMPLING. Beautiful song!

Oh, I almost requested this, last week. Someone else beat me to it.

You should definitely listen & react to “Little Girls,” and “I can’t believe we just met,” by Riff. The same group that sang the Eastside Alma mater in the bathroom of the movie “Lean On Me.”

Peace Sis! I KNEW THAT PEN CLICK WAS COMING!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TC! ♥️🙌🏾

Yesssss!

I love this song! It was played at a lot of weddings 💒 that I have attended back in the day! The couple would typically have a cd 💿 as a party favor with songs on it and this is one of the ones featured! Great request and reaction from Ashley! 😎❤️

The Force MDs are overlooked because they blended the 80s R&B and the burgeoning hip-hop culture. Sadly, most of the group has passed on. They had some good upbeat songs as well. You should check out "Forgive Me Girl", "Here I Go Again", "Love is a House", "Touch and Go" and "Couldn't Care Less. Tender Love was probably their biggest song and it had the most lasting power. But they were quite hot for a bit in the mid 80s.

🎉🎉🎉🎉 this that 1!!!!!

I honestly didn’t remember that Trina sampled this though I know the song well! 😂 thanks for pointing it out. And yes, Force MD’s were the jam! 👏

If you think this one was a banger then you're going to love "Tears", one of their other major hits

BONE THUGS USED THIS SAMPLE ON "DAYS OF OUR LIVES"

A goodie !!! 🔥🔥🔥

I love the song I sang the song over the phone to a girl.
