First Time Hearing Atlantic Starr - Am I Dreaming (1980) REACTION🔥🔥🔥

[@uvprofile67]

The men weren't drinking. They were receiving their dream girl who's the embodiment of raising wholesome, respectful feminine daughters.

[@collapsiblechair9112]

what's wrong with butch daughters?

[@randymccloud5743]

"When Love Calls"..."My First Love"..."Send For Me"..."Always"..."Secret Lovers"... I could go on...and on...

[@bighurt7548]

Just a all around great album 😉👍

[@erickthefantabulous1]

Yeah, Atlantic Star should be in someone's Hall of Fame if there's an R&B hall of fame, definitely. Honestly, it's just refreshing to see that A group of 20 year olds who appreciate classic R&B Honestly, I feel sorry for the generation now. When it comes to music this trash . They listen to now it's just sad..

This is one song I DON'T! play with. . .it's a magical piece of work

[@georgedavis6119]

This is when music was real! I grew up in the 70's. Thank you God for Blessing me with great music in the 70's.

[@DanielleGillmoreJohnson]

This was the original Atlantic Starr, which included Sharon Bryant as a lead vocalist. Awesome music! You get songs like this when the band has actual singers and musicians. The songwriters came up with lyrics that had meaning. No auto-tune. Just real talent. Oh...and their harmony was out of this world! ❤ After Sharon left in 1984 and there were other personnel changes, the group crossed over to the pop charts. Their classic R&B sound changed. You'll hear the difference between their early 80s R&B music (i.e , Send for Me, When Love Calls, Love Me Down, Circles, Let's Get Closer) and their crossover pop songs after 1985 (i.e., Secret Lovers, Silver Shadow, Always, All in the Name of Love).

[@bjware511]

Very good synopsis!

[@dra4600]

They had us drinking Love, Tenderness, and Understanding. Being welcoming from the BS from the world. We offered that to each other.

[@jeffreycooper5187]

I’m 59 and I am so glad that I came up in that era. Our music was unmatched!

[@serpentinefire77]

Thank you for celebrating the music of grown folks. These groups of that era were truly blessed.

[@tiffanyspencer2782]

The female is Sharon Bryant. When she left Atlantic Starr, she covered Steve Perry's song Foolish Heart. Steve started in the rock band Journey. You gotta check them out. They're amazing. Steve has 1 of best voices ever. Check out Sharon performing live on Soul train. Thx

[@sirjer73]

Steve Perry is a legend. He did for Journey, what Michael Mcdonald did for the Doobie Brothers, JT Taylor for Kool and the Gang, and Johnny Gill did for New Edition. The key additions to these groups really help propell them to new levels!!!

[@youknow3843]

She is my favorite female vocalists

[@user-eh8zq1vi4e]

Ashley I grew up across from Detroit Michigan. A White Young Woman from Windsor Ontario Canada in love with R&B and Motown during the 70sand 80s,and 90s. Falling to sleep to the gorgeous sounds of WJLB radio out of Detroit. Dancing in some of the best clubs in Detroit with my wonderful friends. We connected through these sounds. I am a musician and my granddaughter is being introduced to this gorgeous time period. So many female artists overlooked for their beautiful talent. I am glad others are being introduced to this soulful journey. Grandma from Canada, Lori.C.

[@user-hu9wj9ku7p]

You like the way Atlantic Starr sound. I have a feeling you'll like this one too " Secret Lovers "

[@bam55sgarage77]

Her name is Sharon Bryant and Alantic Starr had some jams back in the day.

[@antonioingram3857]

Atlantic Starr and Midnight Star were both great back in the day. As a 53-year-old man, I missed this music.

[@josephdouglas3399]

Yep, this is what we were jamming as teenagers at the house parties, slow dancing with the lights off in the 1980s.

[@thinkbetter49ers]

Back then our men really loved our women

[@derrickturner7163]

Ashley has the greatest appreciation for great music. Her reaction indicates that.

[@ronaldcheatham1321]

Yeah. Our era sang of love. The bonding of man and woman. The EUPHORIC SPLENDOR. Of what love does to you. Changes you. Strengthens you. We CHOSE to love. Amen.

[@jyerl]

Atlantic Starr definitely had some jams; check out "Closer Than Close" and "Send For Me"

[@reginaldfrazier7725]

Black Love is Alpha and the Omega of Our Existence. A very Powerful energy.

[@RxRec]

When indigenous people made real music❤

[@possumslim3420]

Youth is sooooo impatient. It always has been. At this time in the world, everyone wasn't in such a hurry. When a slow song came on at the dance, we wanted that moment to last forever. It may be helpful for today's audiences to understand that: this music was representative of a desire to slow down the pace of the world...not speed it up. And the music reflected that fact.

[@veot.2869]

WE NEED MORE ATLANTIC STARR REACTIONS!!!!! 💢💢💢💢💢

So many babies came from the music 60's 70's and early and mid 80's, real music, we slow dance and talked , held hands and walked, we went on real dates no distraction. This was couples skate jam at skating rink , i remember it well,

This was a jam when I was a kid! They dont make music like this today! I dont think they know how to!!!

[@OlleStahlberg]

Her voice was really one of the smoothest. 💘 And also☝🏼 If not for reaction, at least listen to their ”Circles” and a few years later with new female singer ”Silvershadow”. ✨ In May1980 I found soul/funk, 13 years old, in Sweden.🇸🇪 1978-1983 Golden years for this genre. 👴🏼👍🏼

[@patriciadavis5939]

That’s so true. Guys back then if they wanted a woman they’d go all in. 54 years with my guy. He’s gone but I’ll never love another man like that. Imagine being told everyday how beautiful you are. Yes Mam. He was that and more. A musician.♥️♥️♥️

[@altheafox1556]

Every Song was a HIT! Saw them sing Send For Me! The whole stadium stopped in their tracks and listened! ❤

[@TheDudeFromFairfax-tw2rz]

Between this song and "Send For Me" ... yeah, Atlantic Starr was something else.

[@ProfitPathTV-zf6je]

To answer your question, the female vocalist on this song is Sharon Bryant, the original female lead singer of Atlantic Starr. The male lead singer on this is David Lewis, brother of bandmate Wayne Lewis. David and Wayne both sang lead on many of their other hits.

[@lbell5185]

Long intros because they were just as special as the song. The instrumentals AND voices were just amazing back then. Love your tributes and reactions to oldies. Music that just makes you feel good.

[@LinwoodKing]

It's believe that the don't make music like they made it Back in the day I'm 62 years old there or Artistes In this time frame that sing so beautifully and real to the heart that they to will be spoken of with the same wonder as those in time pass like your Kems Anthony Hamiltons ,M Soulchild Keisha C ,Her Ella's M, Avant, Maxwell, and the list gose on but what I believe is missing is the Hearts of these young that thinks what's love got to do about it. People nowadays are so scared of g5 hurt that they throw up they're guards to keep from getting hurt . What they don't know is this type of adduetued robs them of the beauty of real love one most open themselves up to the joy and pain that comes with True love if you shone the pains that comes through your interactions with be in a relationship you will never reap the the joy that comes from being in love with another.

[@OlleStahlberg]

Nice! 👍🏼 Try ”When love calls” (same album?), mid-tempo 🌟 and their 1978 Gimme your lovin’. It’s THIS funky 👉🏾😎+🤩

[@cocopuff7038]

Nice, great reaction love my music from the 70' 80' and 90's. Tradition music for tradition people back then. But if you have some time can you react to Atlantic Starr "Send For Me" that one is a banger 2.

[@kennethbeachem3776]

That was one my favorite albums Atlantic Star and midnight Star 😮wow... Back in my 70s and 80s when I knew I was in love😢😢

[@JDavis-vq1rx]

Yes Ms Sharon Bryant, the first lady lead. Later it was Barbara Weathers. Both were awesome divas.

[@nenebisou-trey2807]

❤ young lady I’m so happy that you appreciate the early music. I was like seven years old when this came out. Grew up in a household that stayed playing music from the 50s up.. * I’d really like for you to check out this singer, Milira. The song, GO OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN 🤯 ✨fyi, Atlantic Star had one female member that was switched a few times, but All had powerful voices ❤ Sorry for the lengthy comment, but I myself am a music fanatic. Oh, p.s. The group Escape & Keith Sweat made over “ Am I Dreaming . 💯

[@yama5182]

Sweetie…yep❤

[@Charles-qm3mo]

🔥 group !

[@gregpech]

If you pay attention some of the best oldies, and what makes some of them better than others is a lot of those great songs will at some point in the song break it down and either tell you a little story about what’s going on in their heart and their mind as the music is playing or they’ll sing about wants going on and take you on a little detour and then bring you back into the song. In this song in particular he starts saying in the middle of the song “Sometimes I need you to show me it’s not a mirage…” , and when he’s done talking to her he jumps back into the song. It’s pretty cool, and gives a little more depth to the lyrics. Some of my favorite oldies are the ones that break it down in the middle or some point in the song and tell you why he’s singing the song 🔥

[@dwainwilder7337]

I’m listening to this 4 months after you posted it. You have to know by now that this is a rabbit hole worth going down!
