Orleans - Love Takes Time (Chris' Timely Dance Mix)

[@jesseadams8925]

Larry Hoppen RIP. You were an amazing artist and you're very missed!!

[@rogercarter456]

Great mix of a fantastic song.

[@fmk353]

I rarely hear this song on radio stations that claim to be a "source for oldies." This was good music back in '79 and it's good music in 2023. The oldies' stations must be managed by people who were born in 1990 and know little about the music of previous decades.

[@jesseadams8925]

So very true! They should pay attention to the such a huge audience for sure!!!!

[@brindafarr-boyd3347]

Love this song & group🤎🙌🏾

[@ronjontigerfan]

Only went to #11 on the charts. This was Orleans best song. '79 was a great year for music.

[@dude71761]

Hit top 10 on the Radio & Records chart - this was based on radio airplay. I could remember never being able to find the 45

[@jesseadams8925]

Dance With Me was also a beautiful song!

[@peterodriguez328]

Still the One was a good one too.

[@ChuckCummings-tm3yy]

T

[@rogercarter456]

Agree it was their best song following Still the One which I consider their best; but I’ll take either of them over any of the crap out there today.

[@chasinthewind1198]

It’s 20/24 and this is still my favorite song from 1979 and possibly all time!

[@brendafox9284]

Went to number one on my chart!!

[@hardlines4]

A time when we had REAL music!!!!

[@jesseharsley5119]

hardlines4 you,said that nicely. This world pushed real music for nnasty tramp, whormunger trash, nasty rap and garbage that brain washed these young people for all their money and and,tells,them crime is in? Nasty,dicussting garbage.

[@whitelighttrainwreck3021]

I had forgotten about this gem till last night, when it played while I was in a small local drugstore. (I wish I knew a radio station that played old hits like this.) If this were on Name That Tune, I could identify it within the first few notes (long before the vocals begin). Not only that, but I challenged myself to name the group. (If I'd had power on my mobile phone, I would've cheated and used Shazam!) When I reached my car, I made a note of the song title. Once my phone had power, I checked KZbin...and, to my amazement, I recalled the group's name correctly. My late brother (who had leukemia and died in 2021 from Covid complications) is responsible for my love of music. I enjoy a wide variety of music genres, and so did my brother. I wish he were alive to hear this hit. Not a day goes by that I don't miss him as well as enjoying music with him. He was my hero, my protector, and my best friend. If he were here, he would agree that we cut our teeth on the best music.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Thanks for sharing. I, too, lost a friend to Covid in the first wave. Enjoy the music.

[@joemontemurro4210]

A Music Masterpiece. So worthy of this Extended Dance Mix. Brilliant. ❤️

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Thank you. I appreciate it. Just working with what I have!

[@polomxl]

Play this song in my car this past weekend, More then 5 turn and gave me tumbs up! Saludos desde México

[@raymondhetes9783]

This song and love is the answer by those 2 dudes.

[@maymartinez8525]

Timeless. Never get tired hearing them all over again. Thank you so much.

[@keithcerasoli2220]

Such a fantastic, upbeat song.

[@wellnessforlifeinc]

It is fantastic. They don't make songs like this anymore...

[@jamesleone5468]

This tune was a big hit in may 1979 so many great memories!

[@loricop693]

Great Great Memories. THANK YOU!!!

[@elaineshelton5825]

1979...oh my goodness. Barreling down the road in my red Camsro ..windows down, speakers blaring....and cracking. Life was sweet. No worries AT ALL...so much fun growin up in the 70's. THE BEST DECADE EVER 70'S...

[@brianrondinaro9982]

What a Classic by a fantastic band…

[@jayray8097]

This song just makes me crank up the volume up every time I hear it love this song !

[@texan95]

Love this song, music that's timeless, A great message..This song was released weeks before I graduated High School.. What a wonderful time in my life..So many special memories..

[@rujadae]

Ahhh the mid 70s thru mid 80's were the best of times musically

[@jesseadams8925]

Don't forget the 60's too there were many treasures too!!

[@michaelpayne8000]

I was 15 when this song hit the airwaves back in 79..Brings back so many memories as a high schooler with my first girlfriend, makes me wanna go back and stay there forever..🎤🎶🎸

[@MysticLite]

Had this on 45 - great song, I was in Grade 4. I downloaded it from itunes a while ago and now my kids enjoy listening it to too.

[@UnendingChanges]

I grew up listening to this song on WICC Radio. It's a beautiful song.🙂🙂🙂

[@jeanwhite9593]

This is a great song and it is soooooo true !!! Be sure to take your time. If you don't, you may waste your life on a make believe, one sided love.

[@pappyodaniel1523]

Like building a house without laying a foundation first?

[@gracebarzyz5754]

I saw a shooting star the other night........it was beautiful ❤

[@suetullgren4564]

My favorite song by these guys. I just love them!

[@Mominator]

This is my favorite Orleans song. I recently heard it on XM, and had to come to You Tube to hear it again.

[@jeffclancy3564]

A song for the ages. This remix is fantastic - great job!

[@jasonruhland4473]

I love it.

[@markparadise7157]

I remember Bob Leinbach! He used to play with the Fabulous Rhinestones...did keys and trombone if this old memory serves me right!

[@davidbrownbrownie5960]

This version needs to be mashed up with the other recorded versions as well, great timeless song from the mid 70's! We did our thing back then , only to see those of the future generations degrade our music into what theirs is today!

[@ElaineTurner-g5g]

Love this song beautiful

[@EdgarRavizzoni]

Música Linda Grande Banda Grande Época ❤❤

[@Derorilael]

The joy of listening to this song could formerly only be enjoyed for an extended period by playing it over and over again. You finally made it as long as it deserves to be. I remember when this song first came out, and it still blows me away.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Someone gets me!!

[@321watch]

I keep playing this version over and over again. Seeing them this weekend !!!

[@starmnsixty1209]

If you're still out there, 👍👍

[@slshusker]

You're saying you didn't turn this amazing tune into a 45 minute mix tape?

[@Gljin40509]

GREAT version of this great song!

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Thanks. I enjoyed putting it together.

[@scottmayfield5706]

Definitely the best song by orleans they had a couple others

[@alisonhansen1525]

God, great song!!!!

[@felipedejesusmongeandrades8869]

1979. Yo con 18 años. Me primer año de Odontología me monto en un bus Blue Bird color verde. El chofer llevaba está canción a todo volumen. Que emoción. Éramos felices y no lo sabíamos. Yaracuy Venezuela

[@joemysterymusic]

Thanks for the awesome history and post, leftatalbuquerue. Had no idea. I am sitting here enjoying this with my daughter. She loves 60's and 70's rock though she is quite young. Good to be able to pass this on.

[@cruzalcantara6729]

Those were the golden years, I used to live in Dallas Texas and happy everywhere I went. Beautiful song.

[@gregspeers9246]

Love takes time! Used to play this while a top 40 dj in Georgia and Florida. Listening to this Orleans hit once again was certainly time well spent! It has been and is STILL one of my very favorites.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Hope you enjoyed my home-made extended version.

[@josephthomas4513]

Still sounds great in 2020

[@starmnsixty1209]

👍

[@leorunearthsr5253]

Such a talented group i remember listening to them back home in Michigan during the 70's and 80's i have wonderful memories

[@gizmozdaddy]

Great post...great band, great era, better lyrics and harmonies than all the "crappers" I mean, rappers in the universe tied to one giant baby grand could ever collaborate on. Miss this music...need more radio stations playing the 70s and 80's.

[@starmnsixty1209]

You got that right, gizmo if you're still out there. And do we ever need more like this!

[@emmaaum22]

Really great work extending this. John Hall should salute you in Congress!

[@Dolphin8762d]

Thanks for adding this version. One of my all time favorite pop songs!

[@Twilight1979-t7m]

I was born in 1970, and I remember this song , I was only 9 / 10 years old and this was on the radio and America Band Stand , and yet, I’m still listening it in 2024, thanks 🙏 for this Extended Version it’s Epic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏👍🗽❤️🇨🇺🇺🇸, B R from New York

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Thanks. I love this song, too.

[@loriashton2728]

Born in 68, and I loved this stuff. 1978 an ‘79 were great years for music!

[@MrZwip30]

Alot of your songs hit my wheelhouse..another 1979 forgotten classic:)

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Your colloquialism is one I've never heard before - you must be coastal... but yes, I'm trapped in an era where melody, lyric, and chord progression were SO much more an art than what seems to pass for pop music these days...and I've studied music and made it a career - so I know of what I speak! I'm glad you enjoy my selections. I came of age in the 12" Single era, and like the idea of hearing the WHOLE song! Some songs I've done perhaps shouldn't have been remixed, but if nothing else, it prolongs the listening experience.

[@MrZwip30]

"In my wheelhouse" mean something that is in my area of expertise or interest:) I am from Chicago Illinois. USA.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

MrZwip30 Where as I hail from Toronto and points north in Ontario - we are both Great Lakes Basin boys! - and I've never heard that expression before in my life, so obviously you are of a different heritage than I am (read: weird)! Enjoy my channel - there should be lots there you'll recognize. My fave is my Nicolette Larson Lotta Love and (believe it or not) my Donny Osmond Breeze On By remix /mashup.

[@MrZwip30]

The term "In my Wheelhouse" originated in baseball. So don't know how much of a fan you are..lol. I started collecting albums in the early 70's and have about 3,000. Yes I have the Nicolette larson Album as well as the Orleans one I commented on. So yes, I do enjoy your channel alot....I have found many of your songs to be some of my favorites.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

MrZwip30 Hmm - I would have thought the wheelhouse thing was a nautical term... GO JAYS. GO!

[@123ZAC456789]

How cool - great stuff on cool old equipment. HOW DID TAPE AND VINYL SOUND SO DAMNED GOOD ? Big thanks to the early engineers in the 30's and onward.

[@melissaanne4073]

Excellent remix#Thank you#

[@natlogue]

What an amazing song!!!

[@gusstathes1321]

[@MrMowww1]

I first heard this song in Feb.79 on one of those radio countdown shows while having lunch in my car and have loved it ever since. Bought the 45 single and later the entire cd it's timeless!

[@peterd.9522]

Superb remix!

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Thank you. There may be a lot on my channel for you. Check out my remix of Lotta Love by Nicolette Larson, and Alright by Christopher Cross.

Dam that was long time ago . they had a 4 or 5 year run if I'm not mistaken and they were good they rock` N ~ rolled and the babes always came out for them great memories thanks for posting

gostei demais principalmente em dance mix com 7:06 joinha

[@cienh2o]

Interesting how the vamp section is a bit reminiscent of Frankie Valli's "Who Love You," which was a hit in 1975. Still a great song.

[@ianzukswert3185]

Two superb songs and Who Loves You is my fave pop-rock era song and this one by Orleans and Love Is The Answer by ED & JFC are my faves from 1979.

[@guaxola]

This record reminds me of American Bandstand

[@Joe-d1y]

Can someone recommend other songs that have this sound and feel besides the Christopher Cross, Allen Parsons Project, Lionel Ritchie, Kenny Loggins and Richard Marx? Thanks Everyone. Keep great music alive, no matter what year you live in.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

Try the band "Firefall".
