I was 18 when this song came out , And we did drive around in our cars blasting this.! The Baby's were one of my favorite bands as a teenager ...

[@ernestrobles2995]

I was 16. : )

[@buckdurant5336]

Gotta hear Isn't It Time?!!!

[@statnerd9263]

Definitely!

[@donnabruhn6907]

My favorite Baby's song

[@Marcus-Oh-really-yes]

Killer song! You might also like the Babys' hits "Isn't It Time?" and "Back on My Feet Again."

[@User_vjp_92753]

"Isn't It Time" is a great song ! He really shows his vocal range

[@VelveteenRabbitinRedFern]

This and "Isn't it Time" are my 100% favorites!

[@charlesfitzgerald9631]

YES & YES !!!

[@musicloverchiefsfan5410]

Yes and Yes (seconded) !!

[@dvdknight1]

One of my favorites from back in the day. The lead singer John Waite was also lead singer for Bad English and had a great solo career. Love you guys!

[@WineSippingCowboy]

The title of this song appears as the 1st words in the song Missing You, which was written by John Waite, Chas Sanford and Mark Leonard. John Waite on lead vocals, guitar 🎸 and bass guitar. Jonathan Cain on guitar 🎸 and keyboards 🎹..Ricky Phillips on bass guitar 🎸. Tony Brock on drums 🥁. The Babys broke up 💔 in 1981. Waite went solo. Brock joined Sir Rod Stewart. Cain joined Journey. But in 1987, Journey broke up 💔. Waite, Phillips, Cain, Neal Schon and Deen Castronovo formed Bad English. Greg Rolie and Ross Valory formed The Storm. In 1997. Both.bands broke up 💔. Journey reunited. Steve Perry quit again. Atnel Pineda is the recent lead singer.

[@tammyshawl546]

My favorite song by the Babys.

[@monteggooverman8341]

I was born in 1970 I remember listening to that song in the 1980s I loved it

[@dudeusmaximus6793]

Love this song, love this video. Best backup singers ever, blonde girl can belt it out.

[@User_vjp_92753]

John Waite is a great singer ! Thanks Shawn & Mel !

[@60sbaby70sgirl]

I've seen so few reactions to the Babys. Thanks for doing this.

[@kimcutts6153]

Not heard this one before! I like it, I like it a lot. ❤ 🎶

[@bencolquitt7828]

The Babys really great band Midnight Rendezvous banger. Really awesome reaction Shawn and Mel ✌❤

[@ShawnandMel4Life]

We agree!

[@lisaclark1181]

Oh my! I'm still crushin' on this man!! And this song! Sooo glade you found this! 💗💗💗

[@user-ts1mw1xh4i]

81 Had knee surgery Then Back On My Feet Again, Midnight Rendezvous Racing Cars on Westheimer Houston (WHEN HOUSTON WAS EXCELLENT) AWESOME MEMORIES ❤TX

[@keithespinoza2064]

Yep, came out in the spring of ‘79, my Senior year! John Waite became a huge solo artist in the 80s.

[@katiemanning3761]

Great song, the band had a couple fairly big hits. His voice is one of the great ones from the 70s and early 80s. The backup singers on this were unstoppable!

[@monteyoung7126]

Such a positive message ! How can you not love this?

[@williamjehl9636]

I saw John Waite in concert just a couple months ago. He still sounds great.

[@genx8980]

You can hear the 70's and the 80's in this song. I never thought of that and you are so right. That is really an astute observation.

[@delisamarchetti5926]

Hi Shawn and Mel, beautiful song. I haven't heard that in years I loved it. That was a good description of the time period Mel, 1978-81 were great years for music. People don't often talk about that special sound that came in between the decades. There was a lot of really cool old school music being inspired by the new sounds, yet the new sounds were still rooted in the old school. It was truly the best of both worlds!

[@gkarbee1273]

It's so positive, how could you not be positive!

[@DaisyAnnabelle65]

I love this song!❤

[@demeemiller347]

The Baby's are totally underrated!! John Waite went on solo and had great hits, himself

[@ChristinaFromFlint]

The lead singer, John Waite, was in an 80s group named "Bad English." You should check out "When I See You Smile"... An AMAZING love ballad!!! Love you two ❤

[@ajruther67]

They were such a good band. Jonathan Cain of The Babys ended up in the group Journey along with Neal Schon who was in Santana before he joined Journey.

[@laudanum669]

When Jonathan Cain was with "The Baby's" he wrote the song "Open Arms". The rest of the band didn't think it was right for them. Then when Cain joined Journey they decided to record it and it became a huge hit.

[@Deborahtunes]

Also their second Bassist Ricky Phillips has been with Styx since 2003...

[@dgator3599]

Great band! Other great songs by The Babys: Back on My Feet Again, Midnight Rendezvous and Back on My Feet Again

[@tonys2473]

Agree..must listen to Isn't it time!... also Midnight Rendezvous is killer!

[@womanonthinice1276]

Love the Baby's! I was a Jr in high school and listened to the Baby's on the radio to and from school. Drivers license, 16 and a car!!!!

[@sassymess7111]

Wow, thanks for reacting to this! I was like 10 or 11 when this came out.

[@Almcingrid3663]

Saw them in concert. Awesome band. John Waite (lead singer) went solo years later & saw him in concert. "Missing You" is an great ballad.

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Damn I still have this album! In “cassette!” The whole album is great!

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

Nice pick. Haven't heard this song in ages and have never seen the video. Nice reaction.

[@Really658]

You guys are cool. Love this song.

[@gene2049]

Love it !!

[@pattymckitrick7436]

❤❤❤❤

[@alienresearchlab]

I get the feeling they were hooking up in the band. There is a lot of emotion there.

[@craigmarkowski7156]

They have a Huge Huge catalog ! This came out the year I graduated high school ! Love the Baby's ! The lead singer is John Waite, you guys have reacted to one of his songs in his solo career after the baby's broke up !

[@thequieterubcomethemoreuhe1198]

It's about time that you got to The Babys! Isn't It Time❤

[@BIGBLOCKJOE1]

Seen them in 1979 open for styx Hollywood fl great band.

[@pompanomark2024]

LOVE LOVE this song!

[@1001Hobbies]

Yes, when this song came on the radio in the car it was freaking awesome! You had to crank the volume. You can't "not" get into this song. Such a cool sound.

[@demeemiller347]

I wore this cassette OUT!!!!

[@nobodysbusiness566]

I always loved this song, I was 15 then blasting the house with this back then and being told to turn it down by my parents. I always loved it , also their other one called Isn't It Time, they are such classics and should be passed on to future generations and not forgotten. Not many songs move me to the point of getting a tear in my eye but these two do it to me everytime, I'm not in love or remembering a person inparticul, it's purely the songs. .

[@Grizazzle]

Wow! Thanks for this! Haven't heard it in so long that I had forgotten what a great song it is.

[@gotrhythm1]

I saw them live in 1979. Great show!

[@sorgism]

Midnight Rendezvous is a good one too.

[@cherylcercopely5496]

The Babys were an awesome band! Also check out John Waite's work in Bad English and his solo stuff (especially Missin' You)!

[@johnkelley2201]

Midnight Rendezvous is another really good Baby's rocker, besides the other songs mentioned here! 🙂

[@montbob100]

i saw them.i was 15 and they opened for rush and we all booed and heckled because it was not hard enogh for us.

[@bobbavet]

I was 10 and this was awesome on the radio in the car.

[@jjsteel43]

A popular song back then

[@bobbarnhill8557]

Listen to Union Jacks. Great stuff. And yes I have all the Baby’s albums on Vinyl.

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Whooo Wheeee! This is a classic hit! 💝💙✨

[@FUBAR1986]

❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@vikkitrishrunnshaw1127]

This is a great song , isn't it time is even better

[@jamestate5059]

Oh man, you gotta hear his band Bad English and the song When I See You Smile

[@GratefulNole1]

Saw these guys open for Journey in 1981....Amazing show

[@bumperu]

Cold wet Saturday afternoon in a small bar in a mall in the suburbs of Chicago and this song comes on the jukebox and I get drunk as hell.

[@tnfunfearlessfem]

MUST listen to Midnight Rendezvous. Kicks ass

[@tammyshawl546]

Hi I am a 61 year old women and in the seventies I fell in love with a song by Shirley Peeples call I can't stand the rain would love to see you reaction of it . I am on a fixed income and gave tight budget but will donate when can if you would play this forgotten gem 😅

[@Deborahtunes]

Their second bassist "Ricky Phillips is now in Styx...

[@Jellybean0009]

I saw them in concert 1885 at UC Davis ❤

[@bigb6046]

Wow , they have been around longer than I thought. LOL

[@jeffurbanski5627]

Check out “Back on my feet again”....Great song!!!

[@randybaker6042]

Well put. Great song constructing on this album. One of the most underrated albums even with the hits it produced. The background vocals are the Babettes who were Myrna Matthews, Pat Henderson and Marti McCall at that time. I think Myrna Mathews is the lead background vocal. It's not the background singers in the video. Myrna Mathews is Black and has done a lot of work with Steely Dan and many other artists. I think she sings backup on Whitney's I Want To Dance With Somebody.

[@cindyerrington7099]

Thank you!!!

[@ogmike7302]

Nice you two discovered John Waite. 👏👏👏 I’m not Missing You is a great track. Is a banger by him too…

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

I love John Waite ❤ solo but this song is amazing.

[@VelveteenRabbitinRedFern]

Oh good for you SandM, you finally got into real music!!

[@stephenhuber1219]

Bad Animals - Journey & The Babys

[@stephenhuber1219]

Journey's Jon Cain was in The Babys

[@cindysimpson1046]

This song came out at EXACTLY the same time that me and my ex were dating and my parents wanted me to have nothing to do with him. But their driving to force us apart just pushed us further. I got pregnant and we married a few months later (justice of the peace) and had our 1st daughter. My family came around but only for the sake of their precious granddaughter. Long story short...one more daughter and a narcissist and emotional/verbal abuser later (30 years), I finally divorced him. That was 13 years ago and I have earned the right not to feel guilt or self-hatred. I've been freed. A beautiful, poignant, and very well orchestrated song and I love it so much, just a bit ironic ya know.

[@scar4265]

John Waite has out a documentary called The Hard Way it's been out for a year you can find it for free. You'll find out everything that's happened to him its raw and reall the unvarnished truth about the music business.

[@deancallander2483]

Run to Mexico is a banger

[@cmholmes1067]

React to their Back On My Feet Again!

[@davidtatunghuang3805]

Reactions to a couple of songs by Gary Lewis And The Playboys will be appreciated: This Diamond Ring, Just My Style,...... Thank you so much!

[@brianherrington7226]

Isn’t It Time I personally think is their best.

[@BruceStanton-pb7wt]

Woman with pink shirt can wail, "hedlok

[@kimsherrell6588]

[@Joesfosterdogs]
