The Floaters Float On Reaction

[@paigemills67]

You have just experienced REAL R&B! This song came out in 1977 and yes, during the famous skating rink days. They sure don't make songs like this anymore.

[@shevawn1973]

You got that right! I'd go back in a heartbeat ❤

[@Lfg117]

🎯

[@hmeezy2190]

Music like this will never be made nowadays, gotta appreciate this even more ✊🏾

[@TheRealRealOK]

I love this song. I miss the 70s synchronized dancing.

[@annpriddy7941]

They don’t have choreography like that anymore. 😁

[@katie-didellis2437]

I always loved watching the choreography. It was just class. We had some of the best music ever. The 60s 70s some of the 80s the greatest just the greatest. RMR love your reactions.

[@marcusbetancourt3760]

So smooth, so clean, so pure and right to the point. Laid his cards on the table and told her how he felt deep in his heart. No other words were needed.

[@cbilky2914]

Danced to this in the late 70s at many school dances, This was their biggest hit. we need to hear some The Gap Band with Charlie Wilson..mmmmmmm

[@jamespasifull]

Capricorn.......& my name is James, I like a woman who digs real tunes like this!! 😂 Float on!!

[@AutomatikSystematik]

I always loved this song. They all had such great voices!

[@Husselbu1]

Sagittarius... And my name is Helen.... ♥️ That song... Count me in

[@JamesBond-pb2qy]

My Middle Daughter too

[@non-alphagamer3618]

The Floaters were so smooth. When I was a kid, I wanted to either be a Floater or a Pip. Loved all that soul!

[@kellyvarn7519]

Omg one of my all time favorites!!! At work my friends and I would seriously die when he says, CANCER, My name is Larry!!!

[@kevinthetruckdriver353]

I prefer the *11 minute version* of this song the best.

[@Jsimm100]

+kevin the truck driver Me Too.

[@papapabs175]

Not me, loved the Floaters style.

[@seanswinton6242]

I'm with you! It's the smooth groove. Timeless!

[@incarnateTheGreat]

Yes! Such a tuuuuuune

[@ARIKIP]

Love that version...Its basically just the instrumental and the unedited single version combined. Classic Classic Classic.

[@mr.h.36]

come on man this is a classic .....home cookin'

[@Sunshine123x]

Amen x

[@robj8201]

Beautiful song from the 70's....a time when men groomed their long hair or Afros and then came punk and everyone spat at each other...but bands and songs like this lasted till the 80's till the dawn of the teeny boy band and the stampede of hip hop took over and things have never been the same since. 🎶🇬🇧🇺🇸🎶

[@TheMsPhyl]

Youngster your reaction is priceless. Yes we know them too.

[@monticlassictv]

This was the 1970’s love song that you got the girl of your dreams on the dance floor for the the last dance of the night and many a family was started listening to this song and absolute beauty from 1977. I’m now 66 and still listen to these fantastic 1970’s classics.

[@AutomatikSystematik]

Released in 1977. I was like 10 when this came out and I've loved it since.

[@JNante]

I was 14, this was one of my favorite's.

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

This is a new one for me. Before this reaction, I had never heard of this group, or song before. Loved it!

[@schranalderman3522]

First time watching you I just had to see your reaction to the floaters singing one of my favorite songs I remember back in the day I was doing just that off of that song (baby making music) I'm glad you liked it, you are so funny 😂

[@bridgetlaw1484]

OH OH.....Your Mom would certainly remember.....Rose Royce.....Love don't live here anymore....PLEASE react to this

[@cbilky2914]

Workin at the ''Car Wash''..lol or ''I wanna get next to you''

[@vaderjones357]

Remember the car wash dance we'd do??

[@calme-dx2dp]

Those cats were cool and smooth back then, and that was not so, so long ago, my how things change.

[@colinglen4505]

I knew you'd like the falsetto of Charles. he and Larry are my favourites on this. good reaction Ty. : )

[@yvetteadshead4212]

You're cracking me up with your looks lol, hey forgot about the intro's, Paul's not too fussy about his women lol

[@purpleprincessang6812]

Omgggg the JAMMMMM!!!!!!! THEY WILL NEVER MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS AGAIN!!!!! 👀💘🙏🙏

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

This song will be a bop another 45 years from now. Just a great great record. This is an awesome idea, even if I'm familiar with a lot of the content. You bring me back to a lot of songs I grew up hearing my parents and older relatives listen to at get togethers and parties.

[@angiefountain1208]

This is so cheesy, I love it, will have to be Larry for me 🤣 I'm old enough to remember this 😁

[@seanswinton6242]

Angie Fountain Cheesy is the perfect word. Not many lyrics just a breakdown who the performers "floating". Love It!😂

[@mardigrasbeads]

This song came out in the late 70's, but I didn't hear until the early 80's. It's still one of my favorites.

[@davidmills9685]

Same and I only heard a few times and loved the song first tim i heard it.

[@judylee4787]

Love this song

[@workingman6681]

Thank you so much for playing my song. Me and my buddies would sing this song all the time. Looking forward to tomorrow!

[@davemoss9505]

I truly enjoyed watching you enjoy this song. I had the exact same reaction when Charles started. I put my hand up in the air.

[@maymeclayton1402]

That was their only hit in the 70's when horoscopes were popular and this song was very popular.

[@cathyjoyner2838]

one of my favorite groups!! Float On!!

[@nainoswad2725]

Thank you my friend..reminding me of school discos...and the Teacher with a 12" ruler to make sure you don't get too small.

[@ujimajame4601]

Your assessment of this song and comments at the end were spot on, especially about how someone would sing this song today! Their moves were smooth and classy, very reminiscent of Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - the group that launched Teddy Pendergrass, who you should check out doing "I Miss You", "Hope That We Can Be Together Soon", "Bad Luck" and "The Love I Lost." (They also did the original version of "Wake Up Everybody.")

[@karenr1688]

They are all describing me!! So they can all have me!!! 😂🍷🌹❤️

[@JamesBond-pb2qy]

I've been listening to this since I was a kid in Detroit

[@SPOR1965]

Charlies with his fine self--this is one of the smoothest songs of all time

[@annieleitch5656]

Libra and my name is Charles. What a voice.

[@MJM830-SP]

One of my ALL TIME favorites! Happy to see you discovering new music…

[@brendaa2373]

MRM, you are hilarious! Love your comments and reactions!

[@megawhitesox0574]

all four could sing on their own they are that good.

[@robertkennedy1776]

Beautiful song i was about 8 when it came out. My mother loved this song. It was just such a nice time for music people and everything.

[@gyloir]

King Floyd - Groove Me is a great older soul/funk song I think you'd like if you enjoyed this song.

[@TheRealRealOK]

gyloir That’s a good one.

[@kimperes5987]

Gyloir great choice!

[@tammywoods1347]

That's all they knew was to SANG...YASSS❤

[@ImDatBamaLdy]

Watching these young kids discover us OLD FOLKS’ music for the first time is just a trip🤣

[@vaderjones357]

Yay! You did this too! While I watched Strawberry Letter 23 I wondered if you'd done it. Another youth center dance tune!! 💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜 Float.....float on

[@go234ko96ts5]

Another one of those soul classics from the late 70's. Boy, you can feel the vibes and depth in their voices. Great song guys, thanks for the video

[@jomama2757]

Yup, it registered... Floaters were the bomb. If you liked this, try one by the O'Jays called Forever Mine

[@SPTNN]

Forever Mine is a Great song

[@bpeaches58]

YOU ARE SO CRAZY! LOVE THAT SONG! IT CAME OUT IN 1977 WAS VISITING MY MOM AND MY SIBLINGS! COOLIDGE AVE TRENTON NJ....🎼🎶🎵🎤🎧🎵🎶🎼

[@bgvan37]

Love youngins seeing and hearing our music

[@leesher1845]

Loved your smiles throughout this fabulous tune and great choreography. How can anybody not smile when listening to this song. It really does make you feel like you’re ~ floating ~…

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

I remember my parents playing this song as a kid. I loved Larry because we have the same sign, plus, he was the coolest! Ha Ha. That was released in 1977... back when astrological signs were very popular on the dating scene!!

[@ff_drill1332]

Love this song I’m a Cancer to I cruise to this song all the time Larry is my favorite!!

[@jscalf5585]

Im in my 50s. I remember this song. The Floaters was very famous and this song was #1. !! Music city. Tennessee 2022

[@brendawilson8208]

Welcome to the 70s!!! The best decade .... I'll say it again ... The best decade of music!

[@dranet47]

I do remember that song. I think I had it on a K-Tel.

[@michaellomax843]

I think we all had K-Tel or Ronco LPs back then ;) A cheap way of having at least 20 hit songs from recent charts... I still have some. 'SUPERBAD' was my first by K-Tel in 1973 or 4...

[@jacquiethielen]

Wax version of a mixtape. I often buy those compilations at thrift stores.

[@annieleitch5656]

Mmm Take my hand let me take you to Loveland Bring back slow dancing

[@daveperala4723]

Man did you reach for this one. I do remember it however. Some serious belly rubbin on the dance floor music.

[@colinglen4505]

Ty is absolutely right ... that's exactly how the song would be sung now.

[@reahseals6737]

Mr. MRM, you better float on - I thought you'd like the Floaters. There were previously 5 floaters, beautiful love song, don't make them any more.

[@dougnelsin1480]

I am almost albino white and i LOVE the groove of this song. It speaks to my soul.

[@glenyswana7259]

Gosh, haven't heard this song in such a long time, I miss those amazing songs

[@bc58]

I love watching these young bucks reactions to this lost talent. Lost forever.

[@waynestumbo2408]

OMG I haven't heard this since the mid 70s

[@susandiane311]

There's a song called "Love Land" from 1970 by Charles Wright that you should give a listen to.

[@yvetteadshead4212]

Crikey, takes me right back to smooching at the end of the night, love it. Do they still do slow dancing any more ?

[@stacymoore9836]

I graduated in 1979. That song played at a lot of school dances. It was heavenly!!

[@karenr1688]

I love their voices and their tight pants 😂🤣😂

[@gwenfusco7292]

I love your channel! You are the complete package in so many areas. Thank you!

[@ayseclark-carter8744]

[@melodysullivan434]

I wish more of the young generation would experience more the old school cultures!!!

[@jdsguam]

[@bennyrobles9194]

These guys were smooth.!! Different honest times, great memories. I was 15 yrs old. I like the younger generation appreciate our times.!

[@doplinger1]

I'm so glad there was a video for this! There's a long version too, about 12:00. "Cancer...and my name is Larry.." Cheech and Chong did a parody of this song called "Bloat On" that's worth a listen :D

[@galaxy7176]

Hey how's it going? I remember buying this song as a single (in 1977, I just turned 17,lol!) The song is just as good now as it was back then.Thanks for playing it. Brought back some good memories!

[@cynthiamarymonteiro3399]

Love the Floaters! You had me Laughing! I Subscribed! Lol

[@philcrane2426]

MRM...... Only the long version should be played....this is only the back half. One of the smoothest recordings of my generation and very very underrated. It does Float on! Amazing. Keep this going you are keeping real music alive.

[@MRM-Wendy]

Everytime I hear this song I think of that episode of Fresh Prince when Jazz and Jewel got married. They were coming down the aisle to this song. Classic!

[@kempmt1]

There was one group that did "Float On", but had the guys doing a rap in place of the talking.

[@puttytatt61]
