[@KarolPawlowski-mr9td]

Yes, "Criticize" and "If You Were Here Tonight" are his next best tunes.

[@michelleluther3621]

My two faves from Alex

[@demery9140]

“If you were here tonight” omg what a tune

[@ruff500]

"Sunshine" also a great song😊

[@robertlawrence954]

'What's Missing' is another great tune.

[@user-be7tc2bd6e]

Fake is still a-JAM-and has a bad beat too. A song of substance that still pertains to women even today. LOL. Criticize is also a very GOOD song with a nice video.

[@clutch236]

Alexander O'Neal & Cherrelle: "Saturday Love" (written & produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis). 👍🏾

[@Great-Documentaries]

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, former Morris Day and The Time members who grew up with Prince. In fact Prince replaced O'Neal with Morris Day to create The Time out of local band Flyte Time. Criticize is the song they'll like the best, but you're right that she will like Saturday Love the most.

[@bridgemanjr]

The beat gave it away. Classic.. mashup with NASTY needs to be done ASAP

[@alexandervasel6845]

You could spend a month just doing songs produced by those 2!!!!!

[@empire7179]

@@Great-Documentaries Wow!! I didn't know Morris Day replace O'Neal to start the Time's??? This should be on the front comments not a reply👌🏽👍🏽✌🏽

[@erikagholston6610]

Please react to this song. It is fire.

[@raymondwoodard6779]

One of his best is a duet with Cherelle "Saturday Love".

[@user-hk6bi1zz2e]

🎶Alexander O'Neil other hit ,Upbeat jam"Criticize" and love song "If you were here tonight" big romantic and smooth hit🎶👍

[@comvoice]

This is a Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis jam! Hitmakers in the 80’s and 90’s for Janet Jackson, Cherrelle, Human league, etc. members of The Time before Prince fired them for missing a concert…best thing that happened to their career!

[@djhyjak]

And he fired Alex for asking to get paid

[@robertlawrence954]

I understood it happened as they had done some production work, for the SOS Band, against his wishes.

[@MarcoSpeaksNadsat]

Years back I went to a joint headline concert of Barry White and Earth Wind & Fire. Barry had to pull out at the last minute because of ill health. It was announced at the packed concert. You can imagine the disappointment in the crowd. As a replacement, Alexander O'Neal was announced. Silence in the crowd. He came on stage, on his own, no band, no backing singers, just him in his suit and a microphone. He belted out his hits, dripping in sweat, got the crowd singing, dancing and cheering, and set everyone up for EWF. The guy was a machine, and turned around a crowd disappointed that Barry White didn't show.

[@morryswigs2005]

He's boss.

[@keithbenson2627]

That’s sad that you never got to see Barry White Live ! I was fortunate to get the chance to see Barry White live sponsored By Kiss Cares Concert at Madison sq.Garden NYC .Bryan McKnight, the Gap Band , and Isaac Hayes was the MC

[@richardyoung2578]

Rob Squad, you guys absolutely nailed it with the review of Alexander O'Neal's song 'Fake'! What a thrill it was to witness such an iconic artist in action. I'll never forget the moment I got to hit the stage and dance alongside him at one of his gigs, and when he reached out to shake my hand, it was pure magic. Growing up in the UK during the 80s and 90s, his music was the soundtrack to countless memories. As he embarks on his farewell tour this year, it's a bittersweet moment for us all. His contribution to the industry and the way he became part of the fabric of British culture is simply remarkable. I'm eagerly anticipating your future explorations of his discography, Some other AO classics "Criticize" "If You Were Here Tonight" "Saturday Love" (with Cherrelle) "Never Knew Love Like This" "What's Missing" "Sunshine" "The Lovers" "All True Man" "A Broken Heart Can Mend" “Innocent”

[@DemiGod111]

“Saturday Love” with Cherelle is an 80s pop/R&B classic. Also his other duets with her: “Never Knew Love Like This” and “Everything I Miss At Home”

[@markchawner1586]

The Legendary Alexander is known as the Ladies Man ! 😘 Have seen Alex live in the UK a fair few times, really great live .... He was probably bigger in the UK than the U.S. and he has a great following. His other Masterpieces include "What's Missing" .... "Criticize" .... The absolute epic "If You Were Here Tonight" (That one is a cert for you to review, please ! ... What a Ballad) .... "All True Man" and his brilliant duets with Cherrelle "Saturday Love" and "Never Knew Love Like This" .... A great artist indeed and he was originally one of Prince's backing singers 👏😉

[@misterdoe]

I can't believe that in all this time you guys haven't played Alexander O'Neal before. You will definitely like his music. He was the original lead singer of The Time (when they were called Flyte Tyme), but he said he was too hung up on money for Prince's liking, so he was replaced by Morris Day. Check out "Innocent" (the album version if you can), "You Were Meant to Be My Lady (Not My Girl)," "Sunshine," "Criticize," "Used," "Somebody (Changed Your Mind)," and lots more. You will also like "The Rain," by Oran "Juice" Jones, especially when he tells his new ex about herself and sends her packing

[@jamesway]

True, but Prince was famous for under paying. Morris and others had problems with the money issues.

[@wandadavis2124]

Love his song Sunshine ❤

[@benjibradshaw69]

If you were here tonight is a gem also.

[@user-qy1tu9nh3h]

I got his greatest hits.. He was amazing in the 80s and my most favourite is Saturday Love featuring Charelle. I so love playing these tunes in my car and people start to dance to Alexander Oneal

[@Winnib7479]

Alexander O'Neil is a part of the Minneapolis sound as well Prince, the group The Time which included , Morris Day, Jesse Johnson , Jimmy Jam And Terry Lewis who were all friends.

[@franklinterrell9392]

Alexander O'Neal, part of that Minneapolis sound in the 80's. "If You Were Here Tonight" and "A Broken Heart Can Mend" are two good ones.

[@darrenwestbury8569]

Another good tune by Alexander O'Neal - What's Missing

[@rhondaatkins1776]

I rediscovered this song maybe about 5 years ago after not hearing it since it was out way back then. I still knew all the words.

[@bertisjordan1085]

Did you know Alexander O'Neal was the original lead singer of The Time before Morris Day was lead singer and they were The Time that we know now?

[@lesal.1373]

He was being considered by Prince but it wasn't a good fit so it didn't happen.

[@Stevenc1970]

@@lesal.1373actually, that’s not how Morris tells it. “Prince had Alex as the singer and I was cool being the drummer. I had always just been a drummer. But when it came down to it, Alex wanted too much money and he ended up leaving. So Prince asked me ‘why don’t you do it?’ “

[@rhondaatkins1776]

@Stevenc1970 I wonder what Alex says.

[@jasondawson92]

We know that wasn’t the issue Alexander will explained that

[@jacqueline4514]

“WHAT’s MISSING” is a MUST Alexander O’Neal song!!! 🔥🔥🔥. Jay, you are right; we had so much going on musically in the 80’s. But the “fake” out there today is off the charts; insane.

[@timanslinger2831]

That whole album “Hearsay” is straight fire!! Every song on this album you should review!

[@blackblake3658]

He has so many good songs. For female Friday, his duet with Cherrlle, Saturday Love, was the jam back in the day.😊

[@revgurley]

Great song! Thanks for the reaction! Notice how the lyrics are appropriate for today, too? Fake hair, fake lashes, fake nails, fake personalities. Got to love the Prince and The Time influence. He was part of their first band, Flyte Time. Even Morris Day does a cameo at the beginning.

[@Whitebrowpriest]

Alexander O'Neal was huge back when I was in H.S. He and singer Cherrelle used to do duets a lot back then too; one of which was a very popular song called, "Saturday Love". Cherrelle herself was popular too in those days; one of her monster hits was, "I Didn't Mean To Turn You On".

[@NeptuneLady1957]

I loved Alexander O'Neal so much. I named my son Alexander!! ❤❤. About the song, it's about pretending you are something you are not whether it's outside or inside.

[@RockinRob69]

"What is this thing called love" GREAT jam!!! "Sunshine" a great slow jam.

[@562goodguy]

Another great 80's song is D-Train, "You're The One For Me" has that synth bass thumping!

[@Hueymerle]

You'll be surprised at "If you were here tonight." Baby makin' music!

[@baronvonsatan]

Absolutely!

[@officialalexanderoneal]

Thanks for showing the video from my Channel

[@TheSpookyDuke]

Alex O'Neal is one of the 80s greats, no doubt about it!

[@whodatguy8213]

His song Criticize was my jam.

[@DarrylSellers]

"Can I get some NASTY bass! It's gonna be kind of right tonight!" Those lines lead into "Fake" the song the shook up the nightclub scene! That's the Minneapolis sound at its finest! I had the pleasure of seeing Alexander (Oh So Good) O'Neal perform this and other songs in venues around the Twin Cities including If you were here tonight, Criticize, What's missing, Innocent and Never Knew Love Like This (Both of these songs with Cherrelle)! Alexander was in the group Flyte Time with Jam and Lewis back in the day...but he was replaced by Morris Day...later becoming "The Time." Another cool fact, Cynthia Johnson was also in Flyte Time. She left the group, went solo and had a Mega Hit "FunkyTown" which was recorded here in Minneapolis! Alexander and Cherrelle are Golden on "Saturday Love" an amazing, up-tempo duet, reaching #2 on the R&B chart and #26 on the Hot-100!! Great memories! 😊👏🏾🎤🎶🎸🥁🎹💯

[@nickhaswell6011]

Saturday love with cherelle is an absolute must and never knew love like this with cherelle and criticise of course

[@peterbuckingham5866]

I come from across the pond and from the 80s. This brilliant artist was played throughout all the clubs and pubs in Birmingham during his peak. Fantastic tunes and what a guy

[@gwenstevens1963]

Oh y’all are 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️❤️💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽 been loving him since his career ❤❤❤ him and Cherrelle sang together

[@butterflymama0838]

My favorite is "If You Were Here Tonight." Such an awesome song!

[@HarrisMiller-qw6xh]

I had the pleasure of going to the Brixton Academy in South East London back in the 80s, great performance, it flew by so quickly, last song he had a bed on the stage with one red rose on the pillow, and a spotlight shiningon it, he pulled a girl from the audience, sat her on the bed and sung to her "if you was here tonight " awesome singer!

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

Alexander O'Neal was huge back in the day! I love this song!! I loved the eighties because there was a wide variety of music to choose from and I listened to everything from New Wave to Funk to Metal to Punk!💖💖

[@ladyleopublishing966]

This whole album was EPIC! When he did duets with Cherelle they were unstoppable.

[@leidellgettis7926]

"Sunshine" is the next to react to by Alexander O'Neal. Beautiful love song.

[@karmagal1796]

Alexander O Neal’s “All True Man” another great song!

[@mickarnold]

I’m looking forward to seeing Alexander O’Neal performing live at a local theatre in May, loved all his hits during the 80s and 90s

[@MnS101]

"Sunshine" by Alexander O'Neal is a GREAT song by him.

[@terrimilka7805]

I love that song ❤

[@wedge4hire]

It's been a long time since I heard this one!! Late 80's and filled up the dance floor to the max! Great pick!!!!

[@Giveittome2012]

Such an awesome reaction J&A! Takes me back to my senior year in HS. Heard it nonstop that summer. Big time banger in the clubs too. As others have mentioned, his" Saturday Love" duet with Cherrelle was a banger. I'd also suggest his first big hit" Innocent" ... and a lesser known slow jam "Sunshine".

[@CynicAtLarge]

Thanks for playing this. I had forgotten about Alexander O'Neal even though I used to have his album.

[@davidtrevitt9753]

wow the voice is here,saw him a few years back and the after show was amazing,does a great ballad too

[@evangeline3152]

I always love this song! How can anyone sit still listening to this one? I can’t and I didn’t. 😂

[@mauricecooper9594]

The Force M.D.'s "Tender Love" is another gem written & produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Those two are music production ROYALTY!!

[@EricRussell-ud8sg]

A couple of his great ballads were "A Broken Heart Can Mend" and "if You Were Here Tonight". My favorite two club hits of his were "Innocent" and "All True Man"

[@richardsear8008]

When I met my wife in The late 80s I was into punk and new wave and she was into Stevie Wonders, Luther Vandross and Alexander O’Neil and we went to see him live a number of times at Wembley, London. His thing was to invite an audience member up on stage and serenade her (of course) and then jump off the stage and run down the aisles and around the audience. My wife was so excited that she actually got to touch him on one of these audience laps. Do ‘Criticize’ next.

[@jofoster1596]

If you were here tonight is my fave by Alexander

[@keithroberts4952]

A Jam and Lewis production classic!! Alexander O'neal was the original lead singer of the Time, whom you have played before. They were known as Flyte Tyme back then and when Prince got involved with getting them a recording contract, there was a falling out regarding money and Alexander was removed as lead singer and Morris Day was put in his place! Alexander became a great soul singer in the eighties and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis from the Time, produced the bulk of his hits with Fake being one of them!

[@niallmcentee9400]

Check out his song Criticize

[@MrSwitzerland1234]

This was my song this and Saturday Love

[@hayesboy2481]

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis jam. Massive in the UK. The 12 inch version is a banger with extra beats on the b side. His first album is still one of the best debuts I've ever heard.

So glad someone mentioned that Alex was the original lead singer for The Time. And guess who The Time was associated with??? PRINCE!!! So much Prince influence with this track. Just listen to the music on this song. So funky and so Prince/The Time.

[@alyarout]

i love this song. thank you so much for reacting to this song. good times to you.

[@kimberlyluttery8455]

The Minneapolis sound in the 80s was everything. Producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis were members of The Time that was formed by Prince. Prince wrote a number of the group's hits. Jam and Lewis wrote many of Janet Jackson's hits as well as other artists like Alexander O'Neal, Cherelle, and The SOS Band. Prince fired Jam and Lewis from The Time when they were working on The SOS Band's album because they missed a concert date due to a rare snowstorm in Atlanta. That departure led to them being one of the biggest hit making duos of that time.

[@kcprice1115]

This was thunder on the dancefloor 👌⚡ especially when the bass was cranking

[@Chefcorky]

This was my JAM!!! Another Jam and Lewis produced joint. Check out "If You Were Here Tonight". Nice slow song. And the fade at the end is so beautiful.

[@rosemarywatson1231]

Still relevant. This is my jam! Fake eyelashes, at one time women wore colored contacts, weaves and wigs. Still doing it.

[@theoldempressrv6193]

Seen Alexander o Neil live and damn..he can sing.

[@ohfour-seven6228]

Alexander O'Neal produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis was an incredible collaboration. Check out his song, Innocent, it has a similar vibe. He also had two duets with Cherelle. Check out her song You Look Good to Me. Jam and Lewis produced a lot of Janet Jackson's music and when she was ready to put together her new album, they wanted $1 million's to produce it. She refused and they gave the music to Cherelle instead. You Look Good to Me was on that album. Eventually she came back to Jam and Lewis and paid their price. That's how good they are!

[@courtnayzeitler8564]

Total banger

[@sgtrocksheadbangersball]

Oh...this was rocked hard in the clubs when we were in the late 80s! And yet, another great 80's great breakup song! 'The Rain'-Oran "Juice" Jones and I'll just leave it at that!

[@jamesfriday9054]

Alexander O’neal was the original lead singer of Prince’s group The Time, but he was fired before they released their first hit. He was produced by Jam & Lewis and had a good run for a while.

[@darrylvonrokk]

so many cool 80's dance jams!!

[@fantasyguru26]

Alex's first two albums - self titled and 'Hearsay' are pure gems of 80's R&B. Get regular rotation in my playlist. Produced exclusively by the greats Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, it was an almost perfect collaboration. My favorite Alex jams - "What's Missing?", "A Broken Heart Can Mend" and "(What Can I Say) To Make You Love Me".

[@subby111]

phantastic song, phantastic album. major highlight r/b record.

[@kishiagoins2541]

I forgot about this jam. This is still so baaadddd!!! ❤ love it!

[@rhondaatkins1776]

I'm so glad you're doing Alexander O'Neal. I'm hoping you do more of him and the duets with Cherrelle. So many R&B artists of the 80s get overlooked though their music is what everyone lives and ither style themselves after. Early Alex when he was with The Time (they may not even had been called that then), you can clearly hear where Bruno Mars got his style from.

[@srsdj1]

Love Jay's reaction to him being called Clyde! 🤣🤣

[@leroyrs]

That was real banger in the clubs those days. But what you also have to do is "Criticize".

[@pcal6654]

You need to go down this whole list of hits with Jam + Lewis. They basically defined R & B hits, and pop hits, throughout the 80s/90s. Probably the most prolific songwriters of that Era, "No cap!" You don't understand how influential these two were to a generation. It's like we were hearing a song written by them every other week: •The Time [a band of which they were members] •SOS band •Human League •Klymaxx (their first album -so underrated! ) •Change •Alexander O' Neil •Cherelle (A MUST for female Friday!) •Janet Jackson (every single one of her albums/hits) •New Edition (from 1988-98) •Sounds of Blackness •Cheryl Lynn (Encore) •Patty Austin (In the Heat of Heat) •Soul 2 Soul Many others I can't even think of. Thr whole Minneapolis Sound - with them and Prince - was boss!

[@jacobhams6341]

oh yes alex oneil... "criticize" and "saturday love" (with cherelle) 80s club bangers !

[@poppingjaz]

Alexander was supposed to be in the band the Time. He was in that Minneapolis scene in the early days. Morris Day ended up becoming the lead singer (Morris was a drummer) because Alexander and Prince supposedly had a falling out.

[@SlimDaddy9]

Alexander O'Neal's whole album was produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis of Flyte Time Productions. They are former members of The Time with Morris Day. When the word got out that they were producing on the side, Prince fired them from the band. From that point, they went into music peoduction full time. Flyte Time has a distinctive sound in that they're heavily layered sound of electronic instruments. Yet they manage not to induce ear fatigue and muddy the music or its impact. They rose to prominence in the mid 80s.They worked on the albums by The S.O.S. Band, Janet Jackson's Control thru at least the Velvet Rope Album. They also produced half of Johnny Gill's album, where Rub You the Right Way was the smash single. They also produced the whole N.E. Heartbreak for New Edition. They also produced music for Cherelle. They have a boatload of singles, such as Diamonds and Making Love in the Rain by Herb Alpert, and Tender Love by the Force M.D.S. In this video, there are several members of The Time on the stage. Jerome, a mascot of sorts for the Minneapolis sound, is up to his usual antics and introducing a new dance.
