Me too. 70 year old poor white trash. I was raised to listen to country music; which I don’t regret, but man you can’t just pass this beautiful, really better music. I swear sometimes I just don’t understand my race. We need to get rid of this f#@ked up rap shit and stanken assed,what they are trying to pass off as country. By the way, where’s our good old time gospel???

When I went back to see her, she was sitting in her wheelchair ,there's my oldest daughter, called out my name. I was so happy and blessed that she remembered everything ❤️. Played Johnny Taylor and dancing in the streets New Orleans music 🎶. She was moving her head side way. She asked for more ice water from dehydrated for almost a month or more. ❤ She is talking.

I loved this song the minute I heard it on the radio in 1973. I went out & bought it as soon as I saved enough of my allowance. Seems like I remember you could get a 45 rpm single for about 45 cents. I was probably the only white girl in my school who'd bought this record, but I didn't care, because I knew good music when I heard it. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for rhythm & blues, & this song is a classic. Of course, I love Johnnie Taylor's soulful voice, but I also love it when the female backup singers come in - like icing on a cake.

Love is a action Word,thank you Mr J.Taylor.

If the music you listen to the most doesn’t invoke you to think and feel deeply about yourself.....your life....to face what reality is for you and inspire you to be your best and overcome all adversity......then that explains why you might be lost and confused about yourself. Music like this song and or what is massively referred to as “real music”, was predominantly produced in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s because one of the reasons, it was practical to learn how to play an instrument, especially becoming a self taught instrumentalist. The devotion to producing, creating and making music was greater than the desire for fame and money, these artists put their heart and soul into being the best and created volumes of timeless, priceless music, so vast that it seems like they completed what music is and ‘should be’, it’s not old school, or whatever category the industry wants to label it.......no it’s simply what music is suppose to be, why, because it’s The Best of humwoman expression musically, the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and some 90’s......and a little bit of 2000’s. That’s my perspective.

I grew up listening to this ole soul music, family cookout's. Auntie's, Uncle's, and Cousins all around, us running around. And the older one's playing the record's, and sippin on Canadian Mist. Getting "tore" up, talking trash, and reminiscing. But "NEVER", arguing, or disrupting the mood. 60 years old, and those memories I still hold close, just like the "true", ole'skool music. Make you think of the "GOOD" OLE DAY'S, drop a few tear's, for the one's the Lord has called home. Shake ma head and smile, for the late nights sitting on the front porch. Listening to Blue Monday, woo woo wooing and girl on the phone. Awwwwww "SHOOT", bring those day's back👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾💪🏾💪🏾💯💯
