It's crazy that Philippe Wynne, who sings the lead on this, was actually abandoned by his mother.

[@davidturner5730]

Still crying every time, I hear this song.

[@TaylorMadeCori]

Listen. I had to stop watching this a couple of times....whew. So grateful for my Mom. This song is such a wonderful tribute to the angels on Earth who go by many different names, but are always Mama to us. Phillipe Wynne....from the Spinners was one of the BEST to EVER do it. They say that he was the KING of the ad-lib. I read that after awhile, they would just give him the last few minutes in the song, and let him just...soar. Even in this song - at one point he goes "let me run, let me go, let me go on"...but I think he was riffing for at LEAST a few minutes before that, just going off the dome. So grateful to my older siblings who put me on to the Spinners at an early age.....

[@teresamcclellan3228]

Well stated. My older brothers and sisters also turned me on to the Spinners and all great groups from the 60's and 70's.

[@annetterivers7423]

I lost my mother at the age of 17, in 1966. This song came out when I really needed her. It gave me strength to carry on without her. I cry every time I hear this song. Thank you

[@michaelprice3992]

Great song about his mother..a Spinners standard....every time I hear it, it still reminds me of my grandmother....

[@kevbrown341]

Your "reaction" confirms how unsung "The Spinners" are, as everyone stated yesterday. Thanks! to @Music Man for hooking JJ up. Peace!

All-time classic Philippe Wynne at his best I've been playing this a lot lately at work such a Timeless song Tupac did it some justice...Phillipe also song on the Ext version of Knee Deep by Funkadelic which is one of their baddest cuts and 15 mins long. Young man your reactions are some of the best I've seen and I respect ur knowledge of samples and appreciation for the old school God bless

[@yousexymf]

R Kelly did a great job covering this song

Why did he stop and not let the full song play

[@ragjamrock]

Philippe Wynn was the lead singer on this song.Every time I hear it I am reminded of his untimely passing.Truly a great song by one of my favourite groups.🔥👍

[@IceManLikeGervin]

The ultimate mother appreciation song. The Spinners have to be moving up your list of favorite singing groups and you just barely scratched the surface of their music. JJ, you should have checked out the live performance of this song as it takes it to another level all the way around. I will link it up in my reply to this comment.

[@beeseewill2407]

The Spinners were so underrated. Beautiful singing voices.Great storyline.He said she was living in the past .Probably suffering from Altzheimers before she died, but he remembered her for the beautiful person she was when she was whole. Allways brings tears to my eyes when I hear this song.

[@KNichelle]

😢This song makes me so emotional..I miss my mother and grandmother who were definitely like “Sadie”. Lyrically it doesn’t get much better than this.❤️

[@richardcogbill6791]

Love me some Spinners. One of the many Philly-Soul groups. This same singer sings, One if Kind Love Affair, How Could I Let You Get Away I Need Somebody Soon?

[@loriannrichardson7644]

"Such a beautiful song." You are so right!

[@jodykessly8696]

Thank you JJ! It always brings tears to hear this song. It should also be noted JJ, that Philippe said "I love you grandma and momma," because I think so many people are raised by their grandparents...and so this would ring true! It really makes me so happy when a young man such as yourself, hear songs where writers wrote complete phrasing and lyrical content that met great expectations. JJ, you're so young that this song has been sampled at least 5 times off the top of my head and covered by several artists, including R Kelly...all well b4 you were born or really young. I love watching the spark go off in your head when you get the connections of those who came before you. You're wise enough to receive it and there will be no limits to your success! JK

[@peterhudgens8817]

Sweet lyrics about the power of love only a mom can give you. I can never get enough of this beautiful jam. Thanks.

[@zanohoriamazo1]

Powerful! Spinners always brought it! Anyone with a mom or even faithful loving stepmom can relate. Ironically Phillipe’ Wynne, who sang lead on this song, & on other songs, would bring the gospel flavored ad libs & riffs near the end such as, That’s The Way Love Goes, or Could It Be I’m Fallin in Love, suffered a massive heart attack during a show, I believe in Oakland. He was only 43. Such an amazing talent & personal sound he had, like no other. I guess the closest to his voice may have been Rev. Al Green. It was like they could take the soul world to church, a trait associated with Sam Cooke. I guess most black artists music had that element. Another great hit they had that Phillipe sang lead on was, I’ll Be Around. Jeffery Osborne also recorded that one with smooth jazz group called, The Rippingtons. He’s still hittin, but his main airplay & video era was ‘80’s & ‘90’s, ‘On The Wings of Love, & Baby Stay With Me Tonight. Powerful voice & was also in awe Are The World, but wasn’t given a solo.

[@leroywilliams1176]

Yeah Jammin, the Spinners songs are very emotional because they're relatable. This is my favorite groups from the Atlantic record label. Phillipe Wynne's singing style will touch your heart. My all time favorite love song is "Love Don't Love Nobody"; but I love so many of their songs because they touch my heart until the tears flow.....

[@teresamcclellan3228]

That is another good one. I also love "Living Just a Little, Laughing Just a Little"

[@leroywilliams1176]

Jammin, if you like story telling then, the Spinners are the group for you.....

[@dlove7141]

Since you seem to appreciate and relate beautifully to this song I believe you will really enjoy " Better Days " by Dianne Reeves ..another great song for the culture..

[@wfoster-graham6363]

This song gets me every time I hear it. My mother turned 93 this year, and I cherish every day I get to spend with her, especially now, hearing her share her stories, sharing memories. Beautiful reaction!

What you're trying to put into words is the emotional impact of the song because of the universality of our love for our mothers.

[@joycesmith53]

I seen them sing this in concert, so many grown men crying.

[@elisageorge1798]

Your reaction brought tears to my eyes... Beautiful, touching to the soul reaction!!! You feeling this song; just like I remember the older generation did back in my day... I was I believe 16 when this song came out. I knew none of us your age and younger reacted to this song like you..Man! You made me play this reaction video over and over! And my boy Philippe Wynne killing that lead take over as usual. He'll always be my favorite Spinner. Always hearing him reminds me of my brother that died at 39 years old. He was 18 when this song came out. Philippe was his favorite Spinner. And as a teen my brother use to sing and imitate Philippe. He had him down too! 😂 And my brother continued through adulthood , especially when he got drunk he'd be singing and imitating Philippe. May they both continue Riparadise. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@pmd467]

I was 17 when this came out. And I still 😢 when I hear it..

😢 mama, although we were poor, we never knew it because of the love you gave us . I miss you, Mama! The premiere of ladies!.

[@ronniepatton7730]

JJ I was waiting on this reaction this song is a bonafide tear jerker to say the least makes you think an hopefully appreciate our mothers you only get one to quote Stevie these three words is all it takes but a little action to go along with it helps as well this is my No.1 from The Spinners but if you get a chance check out It take a fool to learn that love don't love nobody! Keep up the good work and I'm m glad our era of music is meeting with your approval!

[@Lfg117]

God bless music man. Always on 🎯.

[@karendavidson7538]

This reaction was life, everything about this song still hits truth today, it's just a shame that every son or daughter don't feel the same way today about their mother's as we did back then,if you're a human being with feelings at some point in your childhood someone showed you this type of love, I love the music we came up with and miss it very much, I can really respect the fact and admire any youngin who can appreciate the type of music we had.

A song that we all connect to cause we all have moms. The delivery and the music just brings it even closer to us with our moms. Love this song and it stands the test of time because it is about people we love

[@rescuetheweak]

One of my favorite songs of all time, my dad left when I was two and I was largely raised by my mom. I love a lot of the Spinners songs that I grew up on, but if I could only own one, it would be Sadie.

[@dgodfrey3914]

This hits you right in the feels...

[@JustJammin]

Yup!

[@teresamcclellan3228]

This is my favorite Spinners song. It is timeless. I also love Tupac's "Dear Mama" that song touches my spirit. Love your reactions, your channel is my favorite.

[@justtrust426]

I lost my mother a day before Mother's Day a few years back. It is true the world becomes a lot colder when you lose your parents. It does not matter how old you are when you lose your parents you feel just like an orphan. Enjoy your parents people, when you watch them lowered into the ground just know part of you will go down in that grave with them.

My mom’s mom, my Grandma was a Sadie. My mom cries when she hears this song. ❤

[@Nonchalant_248]

Childhood memories with this one here. I was maybe 7 or 8 years old.

[@danielfuentes7191]

I’m lucky to have grown up in a time when Sadie were in every family , on one hand I’m proud and on the other sad for children today that unfortunately may never know what it was like to have such beautiful women as real role models. strong and loving and didn’t have to announce it the way they carried themselves told you all you needed to know. What a beautiful tragedy.

That was a great reaction, JJ! Man... to be a "fly on the wall" to witness Philipp'e Wynne (Spinners' lead singer)... laying that track down in the studio... with ALL of that emotion, you know?! No disrespect to your privacy and all... but I did not understand what you meant, by saying that "you could not cry?" HNY... come on, 2021! JJ... there are many other "social media influencers and reactors" out there... but your "grind" is respected, and not to be played with!

I just haven't cried in such a long time so I don't think I could if I wanted to.

This is the hardest song for me to listen to. Not because it's bad but because I cry every single time I listen to it. It brings back memories of my grandmother and I still haven't gotten over losing her. The Spinners hit a place in my heart that no other song can touch and it takes a lot for me to shed tears, but this does it every time. I'm wiping tears away now. Lol. Great reaction.

R (The pervert ) Kelly covered this song and pretended that he wrote this song. A song that I relate to is "Toby" by the Chilites. I hope one day you react to that one. If you wanna hear another mother song from back then you should try "I will always love my mama" by the Intruders.
