[@brownb1959]

Dance club all night. Leaving at 5am sweaty and tired....ahh the Good Life back in the day!!

[@aggierowe9574]

I would eat an early breakfast after clubbing...somewhere near Broadway near NYU!!

[@vincentgarcia3400]

This jam will never get old. Never. True classic music

[@iamJoeTheThird]

Facts!

[@TheOnlyOneStanding8079]

The 80s was the best time for music

[@11dsw]

This song belongs to the 9os...no doubt.

[@fatceaserdagreat241]

The 90's had some hits too fam ...the 80's was insane to put it nicely lol

[@jerryg6230]

Hard to listen to this song and not get emotional. Thinking about how life was then. Man..

[@rosbifle413]

Hearing those harmonies on "Good life" gives me goosebumps. Shame that today music is totally dead.

[@Dstyle77]

Beautiful Detroit Techno. Giving love from Chicago. Our House and your Tech. We can't go wrong.

[@lof7845]

America is the birth place of hip house, hip house, house , Latin house, techno, freestyle, rock, salsa, blues, punk rock, folk, r&b, gospel, grunge, alternative and so on.

[@CrowdPleeza]

Was Inner City from Detroit?

[@defmasta7883]

ONE OF THE BEST HOUSE TRACKS EVER !!!

[@alicemcleod6149]

The 1990s were filled great music, the 1980s, 1970s, 1960s, 1950s were filled great music! Today's is music is weak and uninspiring to say the least.

[@jasonbradley6447]

👍 Agreed

[@Ruby-eq1qg]

👎Disagreed

[@jazzsoul1695]

And it's crappy, encouraging getting high, having sex too quickly and being an addict! Screwing yourself up.

[@stanleymasterson1135]

Correct. Today’s music is absolute garbage

[@80samandatheretro]

I totally agree older music is recorded with analog equipment and todays music uses stupid autotune.

[@Nomis2779]

Detroit! Stand up!

[@javy-81]

I'M HAVING BIG FUN!!!!! /DELRAY STAND UP!!!!

[@Emberdays]

It’s all Detroit. ! !!!

[@MR_MR843]

she sholl makes my Detroit stand up😏

[@FdotStizzy]

🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

[@toneyyasss2457]

Yes

[@Greatest1979]

Today's trancey edm bullshit will never ever be as good as this classic anthem and all that other stuff from the late 80s and 90s. I soooo glad I was 18 in 1988 and got in at the right moment to enjoy all that good stuff to the fullest. Great music, great parties and the best pills!!! I would jump into a time-machine in a heartbeat if I had one and do it all over again again and again!!!

[@locadisa]

Not just pills!

[@pieterlugt8553]

this song was released shortly before Christmas in 88, it is one of the defining songs of my high school years. I remember it being a huge hit in all the clubs we went to, and recording mixes of the song on tape to play on our walkmans...

[@janellerollins5893]

One year before i graduated h.s. #classof89

[@kwehibb2391]

I also was a HS junior in 88. This song will alway remind of hangig with a buddy that has since passed away. We lived in NYC and had caught the vibe house music bug when a friend took us to the club Garage. We went a year or two before it closed, and continued to go until it closed. After that was club Tunnel house and many more. You could completely loose your self an inhibitions in that scene. The women were gourgeos, and it made me chill with the whole gay scene and see they were people like us. We all would party the nights away, those were good days. This song still makes me want to dance.

[@guerreropac]

I first heard this jam when I was 14 yrs (1989) at a back yard, first party I had ever gone to on my own and I was blown with the entire scene, Los Angeles

[@unexpectedvixen5685]

No wonder I remember hearing it so much,I was 6 months old and my mom constantly listened to it lol

[@christopherhazell420]

It was still being played in Berlin, Germany, in 1993. While I was stationed there...

[@1tsar]

I have total respect for the 1980's, the music, the shows, the movies, and the awesome looking clothes is something that should definitely be brought back!! Today's music cant even compare to the awesome 80's and 90's!! Most of today's music is forgetable after the first 2 weeks. Where as the 80's and 90's will live on forever!!!! 80's live forever!!! :)

[@staygold15]

To me the 80s were the greatest in terms of music.. Movies... Sitcoms... Fashion.. Music videos... Cartoons .. Toys.. Etc... Then when the 80s ended we all got to enjoy the 90z as well .. The NBA was the most exciting in the 90z ... For 20 years we were all so lucky

[@luiscastillo7009]

Video games too

[@Laurenishful]

I love this song! I don't care if makes me sound old. It actually perks me up to hear it , it's a happy song :)

[@MsRadar23]

It’s timeless

[@cadanmccann]

Man, those chord stabs at 3:42 are absolutely heavenly...this track is just an all-around classic.

[@toneyyasss2457]

Yes

[@geoffreykruszynski8103]

The Golden era of house music

[@leegungrave3282]

80s club Slap. It's good to be 53.

[@latonjabell3837]

STILL MY ANTHEM IN 2023! GOOD ❤️ LIFE! THIS SONG PLAYED ON SOME OF MY ROUGHEST DAYS!

[@jeffwilliams2933]

Will always keep my Dad’s legacy in loving this song and will dance in the club for it. ❤

[@sherwinfitz]

Man I miss my house music (Inner City, Crystal Waters, Black Box, CeCe Peniston). Great times in the 90s

[@quintonroquemore6495]

Can't believe this song came out in 1988. I honestly thought '92-'93.

[@smayorga79]

No more rainy days the sun will chase the clouds away

[@Earlyterrorhead]

The early techno sound still brings me chills,,it take me back to my early rave days,, and how me and my friends would stay out all night till the break of day,,,i would get in so much trouble,,,but it was worth it,,,, miss you guys,,,love you,,

[@FdotStizzy]

Agreed!

[@Dennhunt1]

Actually this isn’t techno. This is straight up House. Hear that bass line and that beat progression?

[@louisstephens7852]

FACTS!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😢 WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE TIMES

[@locadisa]

I remember those days too when I ran the streets.Clubin' every weekend and listening this type music.

[@britneyspears2683]

absolutely dumbfounded at the production value of this song, sounded super fresh for the time and aged extremely well!!! love love love

[@toneyyasss2457]

Yes

[@peacheslovesjesus]

Thanks to JESUS CHRIST and what HE did for me, I HAVE THE GOOD LIFE and will continue to do so FOREVER!

[@jasepaul91]

to anyone worried about younger generations experiencing this amazin house/dance music, im 19 so this was coming out whilst i was born ... if only my teenage years were when this music was around!!!

[@stourglassboy]

Massive respect to Inner City, their music still sounds fantastic today

[@blackmale78]

Awwww, man, this is giving me feelings of being young and free!!!

[@jeg3301]

The music from 85 - 95 may have been the heyday of R&B / Neo Soul. It's a lost art now.

[@jayscribe7547]

this jam changed the house music landscape

[@KoolMuddaFukkaSaid]

All FACTS 💯

[@labro8964]

I remember rocking to this at the Choice , in the Lower East Side, back in the last 80's early 90's

[@mrsmjj81]

This song lives rent free in my head and yet I was today years old when I discovered there was a video for it.... 🤯❤😂

[@maxcornish8864]

Yet another chapter in the incredible history of Detroit music.

[@mrsunshineshines]

Too many great Classics from a decade that will never be forgotten. The 80's will live on long after we're all gone.

[@AllieRX]

Crazy how this is an 80s song. You could play this on radio stations in the 90s and it would fit right in with that decade.

[@jawoody9745]

What a grin! Nothing like hearing this at balls-out volume in the club!! Kevin Saunderson is the god of house music!

[@mscinnamon729]

GREAT SONG! Makes you feel good even if you're not living the "Good Life".

[@pinkyblanco3329]

i love 80s music .. 💞

[@christopherhazell420]

Happy 35th anniversary on the release of hit! A unique era in music & society....

[@kyrapickart4109]

I love this song so much

[@JLanc1982]

I was 7 when I first heard this! Im 40 now and this is still my jam!

[@MondoTeeno]

I love how simple this video is and it lets you interpret what the good life really could be. Dancing? Absolutely. Such a great time warp to my childhood.

[@MichaelJones-wb8sk]

WOW!!!... This Video Bring Back Such Memories from Mid 80's Into The Late 90's Golden Era At It's Best

[@kvantonio2001]

This is Coming from a Chicago kid this is great music No Bias

[@fabioeduardomendes6700]

That song makes me forget about my problems and believe in better days! ;)

[@drcurv]

My all-time favourite Acid House track - just brilliant. Such happy memories of the late 80s; great week-end music, and weird chemicals on offer

[@alalove7186]

These are the kind of songs that makes everyone get tf up and dance 💃🏻

[@sandwich-breath]

One of the classics. It don't get much better than this kids

[@MsMiguel70]

An unforgettable groove and positive message from a beautiful woman that commands your attention from her strength,, talent and attitude, not her bikini. Played this 1,000 times. Don't regret a one. : )

[@Mantronix10]

This was and still is the jam. Brings back some great 80s memories.

[@F_YTB]

Damn this was my childhood man!!!!! #classic

[@jaro-ma]

Good life from Detroit. This is still in my mind.

[@Dave-cq1sl]

I discovered this song accidentally one day and never forgot how awesome it was, i was finally able to find it again :D

[@aphex303101]

This track is a total classic! Still playing around the clubs today and especially nice on a good system. Good times.

[@MGMOZfan]

I still have this cassette single! Great track!

[@ronjoshua8356]

Immediately I'm taken back to the late 80s..1989 to be exact when I was stationed at Naval Station Treasure Island, in the middle of San Francisco Bay..used to go into the city(San Francisco) and this song was always being played in every nightclub venue that I came across. So nostalgic for that time in my life.

[@lPROlxD4V3x]

her voice perfectly goes with the beat, amazing.

[@jamiewarriorwarlordmccallu5712]

80's classic awesome dance track, sold groove too. always loved this one.

[@craignowell]

Inner City - one of the best old skool groups there ever was, and this was the cream of the crop from their repetoire. Just great memories, and the dance floors were full listening to all this stuff!

[@TheConvict1965]

Never get bored of this song, better than the crap about today.

[@chocolate001able]

Tell me about it!!!

[@JayKhwaja]

AGREED

[@evelina1124]

I've loved this song since it's release. This will never get old!

[@kaotikdreamer]

A flawless house classic!

[@lookinforthe70s]

Takes me back to the 80s for a minute. Love it.

[@amfm8909]

Classic and legendary song 4 life! I'm pretty sure she didn't know that it was going to be a Classic!!!

[@saved1991]

I am an honorary U.K. lady. I have always loved this song

[@Chuloloc]

Awesome. Classic tune. I remember listening to this back in 88 or 89. When music was the bomb.

[@later39]

The movie BAPS is the reason why I love this song!!!

[@Ronald-ks2iy]

The 80s just had so much feel good music! I remembered how we used to dress up to go out!

[@believer779]

Thank you for sharing! Great memories of watching “Night Tracks “ on TBS ! 👍

[@ZariyaJ]

This song is definitely one of my favorites!!!

[@xavierkelly5793]

Music lives on forever 2023!!!!!

[@kadijanna5139]

Great memories! Despite all of the pain in our world so much beautiful art was created then....We danced the pain away! 80s and 90s music defined the era!

[@IDFK__]

My theme song for my future bougie life 👏😍

[@PICANCAPIEDRA]

esa época de los noventa fue única, nunca habrá una igual

[@Thetravelclub]

Timeless. and the soulful sound of her voice was and still is on par with the greats like Sade.

[@Soooooooooooonicable]

This track set the stage for the whole vibe of the early 90

[@YoungBlaze]

"go straight" If you know what im talking about ...you had a good childhood

[@darrellbrown8527]

Stage 1, 3, & 7 lol

[@CrystalFissure]

Wow, the early 90's seem to be my favourite time for house music. Those stabby chords, the soft chords, the female vox voice, the simple stab bass; everything was perfect! Compare this to current music; you can't because today's Mainstream pop is pure shot.

[@virginialledo7180]

Sensual rythm I would be dancing all night ☺😘💅💄💋💃💃💃💃

[@user-bw2ee4yy4h]

After house party summer 2010 at Astoria, NY ! DJ finished his set and party with this AWESOME track - that was the good life...

[@kbenjaminrichardson8814]

Everyone keeps commenting about this being the sound of the 90's. This came out in the late 80's. I believe it was 88'.

[@damonvp]

ur correct.

[@The305Garage]

Yep, and I was a House DJ at that time here in Miami. I was spinning this track in 1988 when it was released. Got it as a promo through the record pool I was a member of.

[@rufus317]

I remember this as a regular video in rotation on BET back in 88'

[@The7miledogg]

All-Time favorite song !!!

[@MisterShaq7427]

thinking about the good life, the best days of my life. Every friday & saturdayfor about 4 years, me & mum would take a walk to the chippy, come back and dance the night away to heart fm when they played the club classics like this. i miss those days. just glad i can replay the song to remind me :)

[@stephandebruyckere2331]

jesus 26 y old song, pffff years are passing by like hell. Still sounds fresh to me.

[@chrissadjedy8490]

Very good song. I love this song.

[@rpants]

Makes me a little sad for days gone by this track. Massive tune back in the day when I spent nights in London without a fucking care in the world. What time was it? 3am? 4am, 5am.....Who fucking cared!!

[@bradnobl]

rpants1975...I told myself I wasn't going to cry...now look what you done did!! HAHA...we WERE livin the good life back then!

[@watsonaqua4560]

Iconic song. Never gets old.

[@Edmundogarcia100]

These music video just do so much memories like crazy takes me back to certain days in my life

[@sandifjm]

I love this song so much it's hard to put into words (although this isn't my favourite version). I've seen DJs drop different versions of this track all over the world, and with no exaggeration, crowds everywhere ALWAYS lose their sh*t.

[@lesleycarpenter9066]

I’m here in 23 who with me🎉

[@Jacurlz08]

It's 2023 and I am still blasting this song 🎉❤🙌

[@harpiyon]

there was an era when music was music, movies were movies, arts was real arts, men were real men and women were real women. that times are long gone.

[@T2Dah1202]

Love This! Takes Me Back To The Roller Rink Days.....

[@AnnarieNicole]

Reminds me of living single ❤️❤️

[@Sensabull]

The late 80's was a strange time for dance music.....but we did get a few timeless classics and this is one of them.....

[@daveyboiyeah]

This song came about before the Renault Clio, yet I listened to it in 1992 in my new Clio I and I'm still listening to it on 2011 in my new Clio IV. Class.

[@VengefulBatz]

That black girl was happy as hell...

[@lucasrodenbush]

paris grey

[@RDoubt96]

That girl.* Black has nothing to do with it.

[@locadisa]

​@lucasrodenbush Paris Grey? Is that her name? I liked Big Fun too!

[@utubenoobie01]

1988 eh!! The year I left school.... Good times :-)

[@guerreropac]
