My dad has the extended 12" single of this song. Around 20 years ago he started moving his vinyls to CD's, I pretty much heard his entire singles collection over an entire month blasting at full volume in our house as he transferred them across. I knew half of the songs, but the one that I'll never forget hearing for the 1st time is 'Nightshift'. My dad loves his hi-fi and invested in having the best possible sound he could afford and the production of this song really comes across when you have a high end sound system. The percussion and harmonies are so superior and so organic, If you have a music streaming service, listen to this song with the highest quality bitrate, close your eyes and enjoy a masterpiece. Whats even better is the meaning of the song, the lyrics are a perfect homage to Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, they refer to their songs so many times...and even better...'Nightshift' means 'heaven' and when you listen to the song with that in mind, its a whole new song. JUST WOW!

"Nightshift" by the Commodores is a soulful tribute to two legendary artists, Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, who both passed away in 1984, shortly before the song's release. The song honors their contributions to music, particularly their role in shaping R&B and soul. It is filled with emotion and nostalgia, serving as a reminder of their influence and how their music continues to resonate, even after their deaths. The title "Nightshift" metaphorically refers to how their voices and legacies continue to work their magic, even in the afterlife. The nightshift can be seen as a time when their spirits "work" by comforting and inspiring people through their music, despite no longer being physically present. The song praises them for their roles in bringing joy and healing to people during difficult times, as referenced in the lines, "You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift." The Commodores use the song to bridge a sense of loss with a sense of hope. The melancholic tone is balanced with a message of continuity and legacy, portraying the idea that the essence of Gaye and Wilson lives on through the music they created. Musically, "Nightshift" is reflective, with smooth, gentle rhythms and soulful harmonies that evoke the emotional depth of the subject matter. It became a crossover hit, resonating with audiences for its heartfelt delivery and timeless theme of honoring those who paved the way in music history. The song is not only a tribute but a reminder that great art and the spirit of its creators can transcend time and death.

Not like today where the music industry is run by corporate marketers and $$ motivated product designers. Back then music was mostly created, not manufactured. Every generation has its high points. Back then music was honest and real, and if you chose the right groups it promoted fun & hippie love. It was an amazing time for growing up. It was an amazing time for music. I still play this noise in my home all day long. :)

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKPOdneba7Gdp9Usi=u0zbkjxyM7NX3DE8 ❤🙏 this song makes me sad. I’m not even sure if it is related to the movie “Night Shift” but it came out at the exact same time. So I always assume it was written for that movie kind of like “Romancing the Stone” by Billy Ocean which wasn’t actually in the movie by the same name. Anyway, I have long since lost most of my family and I miss them terribly. This song reminds me of the only time I ever went to a movie alone with my dad. My dad owned a chain of movie theaters in the DC metropolitan area. When dad would do surprise inspections at his movie theaters on weekend nights I would beg to tag along. On really bust nights dad would get behind the concession stand and scoop popcorn or help out in any way he could. And I would do the same when permitted. On the night dad and I saw the movie “Night Shift” we were visiting one of his theaters that I only visited that one time. It was called Cinema 7 in Crystal City (where the Pentagon is located right across from the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial on the Virginia side). I remember that night like it was yesterday. My dad was a very good man but very serious and didn’t speak much. I never doubted that he loved me with all of his heart but being the child of an immigrant family that had seen horror dad was reared in such a way as to not show emotion. It was a defense mechanism that my ancestors had been forced to develop that enabled them to survive atrocities the likes of which those of us in the west will never have to endure (unless we re-elect Trump). On the night that dad and I ended up seeing this movie I had assumed that we were just going to drive around from movie theater to movie theater checking on things. But this night was like no other. It’s possible that dad wanted to see the movie in order to predict how well it was going to do in order to strategize how many copies he wanted to lease or how to negotiate his terms with the production company. OR, maybe dad had another idea in mind. Cinema 7 was notoriously dad’s least crowded movie theater and presumably only existed because dad happened to also own the building it was in. I can’t be positive but I want to believe that dad chose for us to visit Cinema 7 on that one special evening so that we could enjoy our company together without distraction. Dad knew practically everyone in Washington DC. Had we gone to a theater in the District or in the crowded Maryland suburbs dad would have been besieged by people he knew wanting to shake hands and/or making small talk. I’d like to think that dad purposely took me to Cinema 7, a city that no native Washingtonians would ever visit as it was essentially known only for being a bottleneck for traffic exiting DC over the Key Street bridge. At the time that we saw this movie Crystal City was the site of a few apartment buildings and maybe a few restaurants. It was a stretch to even call it a “city.” The ONLY people who would purposely go to a theater in Crystal City would be workers from the Pentagon or government employees living in one of the several apartment buildings as there was absolutely nowhere to park and no subway access at the time. I remember loving the movie and my dad holding my hand the entire time. And I remembered dad seeming “less worried” that night. Dad was a tortured soul. Something that only he knew tormented him throughout his entire life. Dad was incredibly moral so i can only assume that he felt tremendous guilt for being alive. I know this sounds odd if stated in a vacuum, but “survivor guilt” is real and can be as paralyzing to some connected to a tragedy as the very victims of that sane tragedy. Dad and I watched the movie and then we went and had pizza together - just us. And on that one night dad didn’t rush. We even talked. I don’t remember what we talked about but it was light hearted and probably observational. In other words, we were moving our lips but not listening to the substance of what the other was saying. We were simply communicating our love for one another via random waveforms. The substance of this moment was not in the dialogue but in the physical waveforms we were creating with our larynx. The love was encrypted into the core of the tone of the seemingly meaningless sounds separate and distinguishable from any meaning derived from them through the lens of a human dialect. I miss my dad. Dad suffered to ensure that I never did. All I see around me are horrible parents. These parents shower their children with insincere platitudes. But the kids are nothing more than accessories in the lives of yuppies who must have everything. I chose early in life to never bring a child into this cruel world because I don’t have anywhere near the strength or emotional intelligence to raise a child as perfectly and as lovingly as my father and mother did theirs.

There was friction between the Commodores and Lionel Richie as his role in the band drew increasing levels of attention. The other band members felt hurt to read newspaper music critics writing to the effect of “what is a talent like Lionel Richie still doing playing with the funk band Commodores”. Ouch. Once Lionel started with his first solo album, the band agreed to wait as he recorded it on the understanding he’d come back to the band, which he did. However, when that solo album took off, he was approached to record a follow up solo album. He asked the band members to go on hold again, but as they had bills to pay and mouths to feed, they couldn’t afford to stand on the sidelines for Lionel, thus leading to their separation.

I agree in a way. I think - and this may sound stupid at first - it is because of the digitalism / internet that this feelings are a thing of the past. We just did not know didn't we? We knew so so little about everything. We read it in the paper, we heard it on the radio or saw it on MTV and such. The world just was a lot slower. News traveled so slow. Today we know everything. We've seen it all ... it is just an endless repetitive datastream bringing us nothing new. We long to see something real; something really new. But bits and bytes cover everything in a millisecond. Books, movies, shows, music, news, shopping, sharing pictures ... an endless ocean of 0 and 1 that makes just no difference. It like at the end of The Truman-Show: The last episodes has ended ... what's next? And I work in software development and grew up in the 80s ...

Their hits are timeless classics , yet this song 40 years later still touches my soul in a way no other has. Young , struggling and surviving true urban life and ALL my hope and inspiration came from my music. This song covers it all in it's word play and melody.... It was not only about Marvin and Jackie but i felt it was to inspire us to strive and make a difference. All of us who used to jam with the Commodires on vinyl , in concert and on the airways in thise days were and are heavenly bkessed. We were and are fearless....our generations music will last forever.....alot of my generation are enjoying oerformances everyday with Marvin and Jackie....and until i take my seat at the "live concert" on the nightshift , i will continue to listen to this emotional and heart stirring epitone of what soul music encompaases and is about -- rising and striving to leave a thought , a legacy , a mark thought that will resonate forever just line the Commodores and Marvin and Jackie and Berry who wrote forJackie , produced Marvin and gave us the Commodores.....

I don't think the song has anything to do with us. Marvin and Jacky.
