Motown had the grip on the charts in the 70s. Fantastic music that will never be repeated...

[@christophercarpenter2496]

Same!!! Metal Head immersed in Soul, Funk, R&B and Disco. Parents played this since before I could walk. Now 50 years later, still strikes a chord. We are the byproduct of Parents. They listened to everything and passed that open-minded thinking on to me. Never had children of my own. Guess the road ends with me.

I remembered hearing this song for the first time around 1972...I was four, and my Dad first purchased his 1972 Chevrolet Caprice...he washed it, waxed it, and took me and my brother a ride around Chicago. He was playing this song, and I remember riding in the back seat looking out the back window, enjoying the summer breeze...memories

I'll turn 76 this coming Saturday ( 9/25/21...born 9/25/ 45 ). When this song came out I was 27 years old, and it seems like yesterday! We had the most awesome music in that era, and probably didn't realize it at the time. Anyone reading this who is young please take special note: time passes very quickly, enjoy every minute of your precious life. Stay away from substances that'll cut that precious life way too short. Many are dying around us of addiction to opoids...fatal overdoses are common in all aprts of the country. Living to old age may have its problems, but it sure beats checking out in your teens, 20s or 30s - causing untold grief to the people left behind.

I don't care how much money you have or how pretty you are, you can't buy class or style. These brothers had it, still do for the surviving members and out sold every r&b band in the 70's. They never get the full recognition they deserve. I saw them live at Magic Mountain outside L.A. of all places in the 70's. First come first serve, the seats went down from the entrance about 30 rows and 50 feet. Once they opened the ropes, I raced in to get a front row seat at the bottom. there were so many people. I remember getting pushed and I rolled down 20 rows to the front row. I was bleeding from my head. I stayed put and danced (very woozy) from opening song to finale. My friends then took me to the hospital where i received 6 stitches. It was worth every one plus the scar. "I'll be Around" bless u all and mother earth!!

*I still am amazed at how vibrant the string section is. You can hear the scratch when the rosin on the bows go against the strings. I'm a musician and sound engineer. The string section is the most difficult to reproduce on a synthesizer or even a computer. Computers can only Sample but never generate from Scratch, the sound of strings. However, this arrangement is the best music. The musicians and the backing band are absolutely the best. You can feel the magic because everything went perfect. This song will Be Around for Forever*

35 and climbing here, it's great to continue the appreciation for alot of the older music and in a way it's our responsibility to make sure it gets passed down to further generations and so on, simply to prevent it from being forgotten in time.

I was 7 years old when this came out and loved the production and beats - so smooth and easy to dance to - eventually got to listen to it at disco's and local night clubs - the most perfect time to be alive xxx

This is our fork in the road Love's last episode There's nowhere to go, oh no You made your choice Now it's up to me To bow out gracefully Though you hold the key, but baby Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Whenever you need me, I'll be there I'll be around I knew just what to say Now I found out today That all the words had slipped away, but I know There's always a chance A tiny spark will remain, yeah And sparks turn into flames And love can burn once again, but I know you know Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Whenever you need me, I'll be there I'll be around, yeah Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Even if I have to crawl, I'll be there I'll be around Just call me on the phone, I'll be there I'll never leave you alone, I'll be there Just call out your name, I know I know you know I'll be around I'll be skipping and jumping, I'll be there I'll be a-rippin' it up, I'll be there I'll be calling out your name to let you know I'll be around

[@lindadee2053]

"And now it's up to me, to bow out gracefully." I lived those words in 1972. We got back together a couple months later, but 10 years later I bowed out permanently. Soon met the love of my life and we're now going on 40 years together. As sad as you may feel, always remember, better times are just around the corner.

[@xilefregnu232]

One of my favorite soul jams. Growing up as a white teen attending an all-white suburban high school during the mid-80s, I'm certain I was the only person at my school sitting in their room figuring out the guitar parts to this song, cranking it up, playing along, and just flat out boogie-in', groovin', singin' and dancin' to it for an hour.

[@astrid4532]
