[@reginaldpeters5142]

When times was so pleasant and peaceful boy do i miss the 80s.

[@TyroneEpps]

Motown stereo r1984" nightshift" album commodores😊😊😊😊

[@bobcummings8228]

They jammed this song in the 80's and it was one of my fave songs. Still is in 2019!

[@reginaldpeters5142]

Yes it was awesome

[@RitaMBuda-tz6bi]

I love this song. Heard it for the first time on the radio back in 1985. The video is cool too. 😊😊😊🎤🎤🎤🎤

[@gizmonovack]

Music was so fun in the 80s

[@martydaymudefromdc]

Creatively it was the most prolific decade in contemporary music, reaching into the 90s. The sheer volume of artists and independent record labels which existed throughout the 80s is unmatched. It's a pity really, the 80s gave vast numbers of new as well as established artists the opportunity to have their talents introduced, heard and celebrated by music fans across the spectrum. Music, particularly R&B and Dance music, reigned supreme and dance clubs were diverse social gathering venues for those who shared a common love of music and admiration for the artists who created some of the very finest songs in recorded music. Music appreciation was a holiday. And great music is eternal.

[@martydaymudefromdc]

After Funk, R&B and Dance music all other music is just noise.

[@adelfaragalla3621]

I wish I had a time machine and go back in time. The music in the 80s was the best.

[@lewisjones4130]

RIP MILAN WILLIAMS

[@josebrown5961]

Damn! So this song gets stuck in my head. I just couldn’t remember who sang it but I remember it was cool. Thanks to the modern internet I find that it was by The Commodores? This was of course after Lionel Ritchie left the group. For some stupid reason I thought that their only hit was Night Shift. Thank you for posting.

[@garciakarlo]

fantastic song,this one cemented the foundation of love for funk music when i was a teenager and i have never seen the video till now, and boy that eye ball action from Milan just frightens me a little as if it were a lions stare just before pouncing onto its prey

[@tyroneepps3018]

Hi.commodores I like this album I will put it in my library so keep the jams coming your no.1 fan

[@abayomiabi]

Bought the album in 1985 and still loving it and will forever love this and Nightshift, good music never dies.

[@FrevrYng07]

Love it...Thanks!! Met the Commodores back in the 80's...everyone was nice but Lionel.

[@pillgrimm]

Always listened to this album when driving too and from my nightshift gas station job. This one was always my favorite and was so great to start the CD on

[@tonymontana8991]

The best song Commodores has done in my opinion.Cheers !!!

[@noelbusterz.wiseman7718]

You are now in COMMODORE COUNTRY!! And that should be the R&R HOF!! RIP Milan Williams.

[@jellyfish3333]

I agree! Come-on get it together, Rock & Roll HOF!

[@vaidute2576]

amazing place this COMMODORE COUNTRY!!!

[@giuseppeiannicelli9099]

Schöne music......man denkt imer an die gute zeit der 80 er..........echt super und schöne zeit..

[@bobcummings8228]

I still have ANIMAL INSTINCT when it comes to this classic Commodores hit from 1985! I still love to DANCE to it!

[@edwardwills3775]

RIP mr. Williams

[@tonymontana8991]

Pleasant,rhythmic,funky,immortal,I think one of them best songs Commodores has done !!!

[@vonlomor1906]

I just brought home vinyl. 2022

[@frankmilitary]

I like the song, but 2 keytars AND a keyboard player?

[@2005peasah]

Brother Walter Orange was on the drums with the Commodores before he took over from Brother Lionel Richie. RIP Milan Williams

[@georgemathie8123]

This is 80s r and b funk at its best and the JD Nicholas years are so underrated

[@edwardwills3775]

My jam 80s

[@martydaymudefromdc]

Epic bassline! I'm gonna be your prey tonight, I wanna be your primitive lover,.....I hear the call , the call of the wild,......

[@bobcummings8228]

STILL my FAVE Commodores song from the mid 80's! #ANIMALINSTINCT!

[@ChocolateButta]

This song is dopeness!!! I had the cassette back in the day, I was waiting for a female dancer dressed in a leopard print body suit with red heels to come out and do a high kick or something, you know some 80's videos had something to that effect : )) I miss the old school....

[@bernardchava4362]

So im not the only one that loves that?

[@Влюбин]

Вот так бы всегда🎼👍🎹👍🎤👍🎷🎺👍🥁👍

[@bernardjones4565]

Great song…!!!!!!

[@graphicdesigner5188]

This video looks so cool and underrated. It should've gotten the recognition it deserved since then. Not to mention nightshift was the last album on the Motown label.

[@dangiles5307]

Nightshift is a fantastic album! And although I like this song a lot, the whole album is, again, fantastic, including the title track!

[@bobcummings8228]

Still DANCING to this in 2018! I love this hit to death!

[@babatundeogunshote475]

Animal Instinct! One of my favourite tracks from the Commodores!👍👏 Enjoy the lyrics below! Commodores - Animal Instinct lyrics On my back You're on my track I can feel you creeping up on me Such a hungry love on the hunt Stalking through the night We're running wild In your eyes I'm the prize In the lion's den I can't get free Now we're alone Don't let me go Cos you're bringing out The savage beast in me My scent's in the air It's everywhere I'm gonna be your prey tonight I've given up the chase I'm ready to be tamed So tonight you better use your Animal instinct (Oh baby) Let's set the beast free tonight Animal instinct (Come to me) I wanna be your primitive lover Set a trap Then you attack Bringing me to life with every bite A single touch is just enough To stir the animal inside of me Lost in your jungle Weak from the heat I'm gonna be your prey tonight I won't hide anymore Listen for the roar I know tonight you gonna use your Animal instinct (Oh baby) Let's set the beast free tonight Animal instinct (Come to me) I wanna be your primitive lover A savage heart Hungry for the touch In the dark I'm ready for the hurt I hear the call The call of the wild Every night I need to feel your Animal instinct (Oh baby) Let's set the beast free tonight Animal instinct (Come to me) I wanna be your primitive lover Ooh, ooh ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh My scent's in the air It's everywhere... I'm gonna be your prey tonight I've given up the chase Ready to be tamed So tonight you better use your Animal instinct (Oh baby) Let's set the beast free tonight Animal instinct (Come to me) I wanna be your primitive lover Animal instinct (Oh baby) Let's set the beast free tonight Animal instinct (Come to me) I wanna be your primitive lover Ooh, ooh ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh Ooh, ooh ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh Animal instinct Animal instinct

[@TommyIrl77]

Still listening to it in 2020....🖤🖤🖤🖤🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@robertcummings8088]

This song still brings out my personal ANIMAL INSTINCT in 2018! LOL!

[@gdub520]

lol forgot how much i liked this song....the synth sound definitely was something different after listening to the commodores with real drums and guitars and horn, etc...but this was a good typical 80's song

[@antoniojohnson8456]

This song was so underrated. Should have gotten more recognition. When I heard this song for the 1st time in 1985, I thought they were saying "Cannonball Instinct " lol

[@edwardwills3775]

My favorite video

[@MrKooled66]

This was my favorite track from the night shift album

[@vvdik]

such a great track. i played this on my stereo when a guy i had a crush on in 1985 (never told him that) was around. just getting to know each other as friends. he so got his groove on without realising i was mad for him. crazy days haha

[@SafaAlkan]

Now are you married with him ?

[@Terabagen]

Music...soooo gooood!

[@masa4936]

Mate ! what a great track....I have the vinyl :)

[@jellyfish3333]

Lionel who?

[@poeha007]

Best Commodores track ever...wow *hands down*

[@angeluvsvid]

Does anybody remember their song Stay With Me i cant find it anywhere it suppose to be on this album

[@Stephengichaga-jd6rv]

It ignites my instinct in commondores in my mid eighties 👍

[@chipdrusano]

My first time hearing this and i love it!

[@38yofrmut]

How neat! I'm 44 & first time I heard (& saw them perform it) was on a Summer '85 episode of Solid Gold! Then saw the single 45 in stores & of course the album (cassette & album). Then heard it here & there on the radio! I miss the '80s!

[@corybangerter5845]

+38yofrmut FYI: They never performed this on Solid Gold. They lipsynched to a prerecorded track with both instruments and vocals. NO ONE EVER performed live music on the show.

[@38yofrmut]

Cory Bangerter Guess what, Cory? You are absolutely right! But the point is, they and other musicians/singers appeared on the show! That was the point that I was trying to get at.

[@sandor1326]

I like this song what a catchy tune this song it didn't had much airplay like Nightshift did but is a great song.

[@bobcummings8228]

still a dance jam in 2019!!

[@1manarmy850]

I didn't know they made another video with that 'fake lionel richie.'....HALL OF FAMERS!

[@chadbartley2063]

Love song

[@Gerri000]

I LOVE IT ! Thank you for sharing.

[@edwardwills3775]

RIP mr.williams

[@JHollowayNetwork]

diidn't they use a vocoder (distorted voice) in this song where they said the chorus "Animal Instinct?"

[@bigguys45s29]

Good tune, but I wouldn’t rank it among their all time best tunes. Peaked as high as No. 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1985.

[@ClariceArt]

the whole LP nightshift with a good beat in background could it be a dance 2012 hit

[@bobcummings8228]

ANIMAL INSTINCT! Let's set the beast free tonight! NOW!!

[@MissTee1966]

i used to spin this back in the day...but it's the first time I've seen the video...lol

[@ACGUZMAN777]

On my back You're on my track I can feel you creeping up on me. Such a hungry love on the hunt Stalking through the night We're running wild. In your eyes I'm the prize In the lion's den I can't get free. Now we're alone Don't let me go 'Cause you're bringing out the savage beast in me. My scent's in the air It's everywhere I'm gonna be your prey tonight. I've given up the chase I'm ready to be tamed So tonight you better use your Animal instinct - oh baby Let's set the beast free tonight. Animal instinct - come to me I want to be your primitive lover. Set a trap Then you attack Bringing me to life with every bite. A single touch is just enough to stir the animal inside of me. Lost in your jungle Weak from the heat I'm gonna be your prey tonig I won't hide anymore Listen for the roar I know tonight you're gonna use your Animal instinct - oh baby Let's set the beast free tonight. . . . A savage heart Hungry for the touch In the dark I'm ready for the hur I hear the call The call of the wild Every night I need to feel your Animal instinct - Oh baby Let's set the beast free tonight. . . . My scent's in the air It's everywhere . . . Animal instinct - oh baby Let's set the beast free tonight. . . . Animal instinct - oh baby Let's set the beast free tonight. . . . Animal instinct Instinct Instinct

[@tedder1931]

This was also one of the best albums that the Commodores ever did.

[@avinashdadlani2870]

Who is listening in 2020?..👍👌

[@desmondhack335]

[@dwanollah]

Morals of 80s music vids: you could never have too many rhinestones. Or too many keytar players.

[@rodschweizer7069]

👌👌👌

[@tedder1931]

Great tune. Im suprised it was not a big hit. These guys never got enough credit after lionel left.

[@shoulderlift]

The guy on keyboard has a sexy mustache!

[@oholm09]
