out of this world

I believe that is Lionel Richie on synthesizer!

Young and reckless

My country radio channel loved to use this tune for intro for certain programs...Never knew it was from this group untill today..And that was 40 years ago.😂😂😂

So shocking to see Lionel work it 50 years ago and still be a mainstay on the tube…second fave song from these gents

OMG... young Lionel Richie!!!!

1960年生まれの日本人です。素晴らしいミュージシャンですが、まさかライオネル・リッチーが、あそこまで登りつめるとは思いませんでした。ホール&オーツやプリンス、マドンナと並び称されるとは

Hey ladies!

some of these comments are amusing. no one cares what race you are.

I was 21 when this song came out and now I am 71 thank God for good old disco music 🎶 🎵 🙌

Kinda lyk it 🤩 0:58

This song is in Boogie Nights, right?

2024 and this still is 💯🤘🔥

70s kid watching Soul Train every weekend. Yeah!!

That dude is standing in front of a space ship 🚀 🛸

"50 AÑOS" se cumplen desde wue escuche esta cancion como cortinilla de fondo del programa radial EUROPARADE que dirigia el colombiano ALFONSO MONTEALEGRE desde Hilversum, Holanda 1974 para las Americas. Inmortal ver ahi en los teclados la parre magica de Lionel Ritchie y leer en los comentarios la cantidad de lugares donde tambien fue la cortina musical... Viva el Funk, desde Colombia Hans❤

After all these years machine gun still fires .

Lionel wearing the keys out!

Magnificent .

The 1970s defined (arguably) in one song

The music of the 1970s is truly timeless.

❤machine gun Texas Ft Hood .1975 get down, !!!!😅

Lionel getting down on the synthesizer!

Alt aber schön, eS ist vorbei und kommt ni wieder

U N B E L I E V A B L E C O O L !!!!

Hey Ladies by the Beastie Boys was sampled from this song

Today's music can't touch even 10% of what this music was. We've lost a huge part of American culture once the Internet came around. Makes me so sad. Remember black people who weren't rappers? Such a good time to be alive.

They were real good funk band

REMEMBERING KEYBOARDIST MILAN "CAPTAIN QUICKDRAW" WILLIAMS [03/38/2024]

Heard this on AM radio as a teenager, ran out and bought the 45RPM (had no money, old record player) and played the grooves off of this thing. Still have the 45 but it's trashed.

A Hora do Rush, com Mauro Borba.

Boogie Nights anyone???

Yianni is in motion with this song....!

From back when people danced. That's right, we actually practiced our moves before the weekend.

Commodores supertrooper! Live forever in my soul!❤

I still will never understand why there aren’t more bands like this in the world now ! You never see this anymore at bars and clubs …never understand why the black music community left the greatest music behind to pursue Rap .

Go Lionel! Love this song!! I was in 4th grade for it.

This makes me so happy. When I was a little kid in D.C. watching Soul Train on Saturdays at 5 pm was mandatory. Mixed with this epic, perfect song=heaven. Thank you so much for posting🙏.

The great and Big Big the commodores it's SO Big 70s Funky and Soul power music

Love it, Lionel Richie’s keyboard still had the baggage tag on it. They carried their own instruments.

Aww❤❤"Machine Gun." 🍓

Anybody asked what the 70s were like you point them to this direction…then will soon understand it was 1 of the best decades for music

as a purple man from the planet sirius you people are Phonekey

You didn't have to worry then about somebody swatting you with their iPhone while you're dancing.

Wow, their costumes were so striking

Buen,grupo✌️😎👏👏👏👏👏👏

Fabulous 👌

I love this so much, one of my favorites

Brings back memories of watching "Soul Train", "American Bandstand", and "Don Kirshner's Rock Concert" on TV every time they came on.
