THE 80s!! FIRST TIME HEARING Shannon - Let The Music Play REACTION

[@chrisw3421]

This song will always be bumpin to me... so good even after 40 years

[@dorianjaypaat6239]

Facts of life .

[@MikeJG6453]

I was a DJ at a skating rink in the mid to late 90's and even a decade later it was still a hit to skate to, along with other 80's freestyle type music.

[@allisterfiend_2112]

Man, this song was all over the clubs back in the day.

[@derekfiedler772]

Great music. Great decade. I miss the 80s!!!!

[@BruceJohnson-om5kl]

57 years old. Block Parties, basement jams And Neighborhood Bars. Shannon was played in the hood in Philly.💯✌🏿

[@TheIddieMorris]

And DC, along with Go go.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

Give Me Tonight would blow the roof of clubs! They knew how to rip that synth.

[@dghatt3491]

"Give Me Tonight" was another banger by Shannon. 🔥🔥🔥

[@MoMoMyPup10]

That was the one that blew the roof off of clubs, every time!

[@agentsmithmememe]

That song was amazing

[@dorothyannford8448]

Always on my playlist. My Hearts Divided is also an awesome song from the same album.

[@haroldt1999]

80s freestyle is so awesome #80sRules

[@jaywillingham4085]

Fun fact: That is not Shannons vocals on the hook at all. It is actually a white man named Jimi Tunnell who worked with the producer Chris Barbosa on many hooks during the freestyle explosion which this song set off. His voice was like butter. You should check out My heart gets all the breaks by Monet. They showed out.

[@slappymcbutterballs7326]

it's what we used to call "the bomb"..

[@catserver8577]

I was a freshman girl in HS when this came out, and this dude I liked was a dj and he sent it out to me at a club (settle down, people, it was early 80s). It was the best of times and the worst of times. He broke my heart, but this song is so good I refused to make it remind me of anything bad. Still listening to this day.

[@bryanCJC2105]

Oh man, 1984 Prime clubbing years 3-4x a week! When song would come on at the club, the dance floor would fill UP and people would dance the hell out of this song! There's nothing like dancing all night long drenched in sweat. I still love dancing! Back then, music videos were mostly crap. It was expensive and new artists just didn't have the budgets for slick videos. They just cobbled together a few dancers and colored lights and that was it.

[@jacqueline4514]

YES! My time 😀! I lived in the clubs in the 80's (the real ones, with all kinds and colors of people; not the popish top hits ones); it was all about the dancing (and drinks, lol) till 4:00 AM ❤. The DJ (that's what we called them; really they were creators, putting techno beats and sounds together) that created this beat never intended for it to have vocals; a producer brought Shannon's vocals to it and when he heard it, he cried. The rest is history! Do you want to know Shannon's better song that was even bigger on the Dancefloor in Brooklyn? "GIVE ME TONIGHT". 🔥That one still makes me STILL makes me break out in full song and dance. With Shannon you are dipping your toe in the "Freestyle" genre water. Love it!!!

[@neohernandez7789]

This song 🎵 was the beginning of Dance 💃 Music 🎶 Known as the 1st Dance song to break into mainstram & start the Freestyle Genre. Dance music 🎶💃 🩰 🕺 ❤🤍💙

[@IAMisLove]

[@ChuckinAurora]

“If I was a DJ I would start my set with this song”. 🎊 🎉🎉

[@brookehornback1896]

I was all about this song when I was a kid,I still love it.

[@user-lk3pb9pe9z]

I remember being in college in Boston and when this and Give Me The Nite hit the clubs Everyone hit the Dance Floor..it was a Huge hit World wide in clubs..Nile Rodgers and a few others in industry have said the begining riff of this to be the best of any dance hit.💓

[@patrickchilds5486]

Loved Shannon in the early 80’s…

[@Wishes890]

During the 80s I was in my twenties and whenever I went to a Christmas party or a wedding reception I would ask for this song to be played and the DJ's never ever had it so I went out and bought the record and took it with me to those parties from that point on and if they didn't have it I gave it to them to play it was my favorite song to dance to along with some ZZ Top

[@dorothyannford8448]

Another great from the 80's id Rhythm is A Dancer! Fire!!❤

[@lisalopez8026]

Classic! always made me go crazy in the club

[@BrookieMonster1313]

This song and songs like it when I was a kid, gave me my love for breakbeats and the 90’s rave scene i think later. I can’t point it out, but it’s a similar kind of feeling when I hear the two music styles (not feel as in by sound, feel as I’m by goosebumps and that feeling in your chest when you hear something you really love). Although, this song does have an old school Florida kind of breakbeat feel to it.. I may have even heard it sampled.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

This was her big hit but her song that made the clubs go crazy was Give Me Tonight (the extended version is great for clubs; not so much for reactions)

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

Another banger from the 80s. Nice to hear this song again.

[@scouseofhorror104]

Believe it or not this is the original hiphop sound! Before it got hijacked 😢 You should react to it's sister song 'Give Me Tonight' 🙂🤗

[@JoseFPulistar-f1y]

@@scouseofhorror104 WORD! HIP HOP WAS JUST MAKING ITS ENTRANCE IN MAINSTREAM RADIO...POPPERS WERE POPPING TO THIS...

[@jzekas21]

Loved this song!

[@dghatt3491]

Bruh! This was a monster hit. You could not help but dance. Breakdance too.

[@dorianjaypaat6239]

I was a kid in the 90 s when I heard this song for the first time. I enjoy freestyle music which this genre is called and I grew up in the Bronx .

[@chrischar9428]

React to "Like a Star" Corinne Bailey Rae.

[@angelskunk2206]

I don’t thinking she’s singing about literal dancing.

[@agentsmithmememe]

Not to mention she was damn hot

[@mrxces69]

You tto damn old to be hearing this for the first time. You lived in a hole in America?

[@dignerds]
