First Time Hearing The Spinners - Sadie Live On Soul Train |REACTION 🔥🔥🔥

[@expecttowintv1858]

This is the first black folks Mothers Day anthem. This song is about mothers and almost all old school folks can relate to this song. Sadie has many names. This song is hard for those of us who’s mothers are no longer here.

[@martyemmons1859]

Don't forget about, "I'll Always Love My Mama" (1973) by The Intruders.

[@Mishy555]

@@martyemmons1859yesssss. That was a good one as well!!😊

[@peterdavis8471]

Glad I was part of the 70's era

[@expecttowintv1858]

Nobody came outside on Saturdays until Soul Train went off!!

[@bertc2314]

Ain't that the truth!!!

[@tonym362]

My mom was a Sadie. She kept us on the straight & narrow, always respectful. She's been gone over 27 years & I think about her every day. 🙏

[@kevinfoster4646]

The Mighty, Mighty Spinners rabbit hole is one that is most definitely worth going down. You won't be disappointed.

[@djrh3690]

The Great Philippe Wynne! No one could tell a story like him…his adlibs (like the last part of this song) were legendary.

[@primeminister66]

Almost tear up every time I hear this song. All time classic

[@greggrbassett2581]

Almost? Man, EVERY time...never fails...lol. For me, it's a combination of what he's saying and his delivery.

[@primeminister66]

Tearing up now 🎉🎉🎉

The Genius of the LEGENDARY Iconic Mr Thom Bell

The mighty Phillippe Wynne

[@princedejour2686]

He has such a great voice and I wished that he would have stayed with the group! Things ended not going well for him after he left the group. He also died young and tragically! He had such a unique and great voice!! RIP my brother!

[@greggrbassett2581]

You KNOW it's hitting its mark when you put that "stank" face on. Love you for keeping songs like this alive! ❤

[@peterdavis8471]

That's funny the stink face 🤣🤣🤣 thanks 👍

[@minniekline5408]

Soul train was the bomb!❤

[@mrfunnylookinhayes9088]

My mom was one of those Sadie who was there always to lead us in the right direction.

[@princedejour2686]

This is probably my favorite song by the Spinners! This is an all-time great song that just had me thinking about my mother, grandmother and any important woman in my life! It's such a great tribute to the ladies that give us unconditional love!!

[@arthurlangford5861]

Sadie represented the memory of all mothers of the old school. My mama Sarah, was a Sadie! We miss you mom! ❤

[@renee176]

For me and my Friends, Soul Train was a MUST watch back in the day!😊

[@user-li2ir5ss5p]

I’m from Chicago where Don Cornelius’s “Soul Train” originally aired locally in 1970 and was nationally syndicated and relocated to Los Angeles California in 1971. Soul Train was derived from another pioneering Chicago dance show named “The Big Bill Hill Show” which aired originally in 1967 and was hosted by William “Big Bill” Hill. Chicago’s “Soul Train” was a spinoff of the The Big Bill Hill Show. Another great song honoring Mothers was The Intruders “I’ll Always Love My Mama!”

[@kbquan]

Sadie is the Mother's day anthem. It was written just moms like you. Listen to the words.

[@michaelbaylor2923]

One of the best soul voices ever!!❤

[@greggrbassett2581]

DEFINITELY!

[@craigrobinson1410]

I love the fact that you do old-school r&b and you have the greatest eyebrows on Earth😂😂😂

[@abramking7164]

I was fortunate to see them at the 1st Disney World Senior Class night in 1973.

[@titoclayton7170]

Sadie and the o'jays brandy will put you in your emotions

[@primeminister66]

Brandy is a super cold underrated song for sure

[@kennydeez..1774]

🔥🔥🔥Great Song And An Outstanding Group. Great Reaction👍🏾💯👍🏾

[@christinewinn9150]

They play this song on the radio on Mother's Day.

[@vincerussell6893]

"Soultrain" was a Saturday ritual, you had to watch it! We never missed it.

[@ernieruiz7454]

This song makes me think of my grandma and cry❤

[@a.c.6475]

Hmm!...yes! Soul Train was the highlight of the week, we use to knock out our chores on Saturday morning so we could watch uninterrupted! Although 90% of the artist lip-synced, there were artist/groups that recorded live! Marvin Gaye, Harold Melvin & blue notes (featuring Teddy P.) James Brown, Al Green were a few that come to mind! We had some good T.V. shows back then too.

[@shamanwavemw3596]

You made my day! Not many people realize the power that was in this music. EWF is my all time favorite . Keep going gurl 😊 Your energy is 🔥. Thank you 😊

[@sonandsanford4963]

Philippe W. was awesome with the Spinners. Being an ol'skool Funkateer, my favorite song with him was in the "Uncle Jam's Army" Lp, Funkadelic. "One of a kind, love affair" was also awesome by the Spinners.

[@ProfitPathTV-zf6je]

He's singing about his MAMA. He actually mentioned that at the beginning of the song, how it was a memorial to those mothers like his, who live on in memory.

[@Sober2003]

Reminds me of my oldest brother. He played this and sung to it! Such a beautiful song ❤

[@marvinmcelvin1419]

Ms. Ashley, I was so blessed to be a part of the 60's, 70's, and the 80's. We grew up listening to this music!!!! Not hating on today's music???? What will be the new generation classics????

[@amontaineaurore4700]

I think the song is a tribute to mothers of the past, not just his individual mother.

[@lvthtxusa]

I did have an Aunt Sadie until 1996, and this Spinners hit remains in my inventory....Listening to it since 1974....The song symbolizes the traditional black woman revered at that time ❤ Including Our Mother.

[@kurtadams3021]

The LEGENDARY Detroit Spinners

[@MarcG7424]

Philippe Wynne sang with Parliament Funkadelic after he left the Spinners

[@MzBettyK]

I was worried for a while, Ashley. Finally, you caught on to the meaning and message 10:28 of the song. You admitted to being tired, lateness of the night. Sadie was much like my grandmother who lived with us and sent us to Sunday School while M’Dear was working 3 and three jobs. However, she made sure we had breakfast first. I owe so much of the nurturance I received from my Sadie. We always called her Mama. Good reaction. Thank you. I love this song. It’s a true story for this 77 year old.

[@darrylstaves748]

The Spinners set the stage for Dear Mama

[@michaelcarson7941]

This song stirs up emotions. I never heard a Jay Z song either.

[@michaelwilliams-vu2nf]

Another by them is LOVE DON'T LOVE NOBODY

[@kurtadams3021]

What is life without love 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@allthewaylivemedia]

3:13 Sadie indeed was not blushing.

[@dlove7141]

“Sadie” is his mom..❤ no worries sis😊

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

The song makes me cry! I miss my Mom! This reminds me of my Mom and Daddy and growing up w/my 4 sisters and my brother. Tupac's sample of this for Dear Mama was the best sample, in my humble opinion! 💖💖

[@dra4600]

Me too Ashley regarding JZ.

[@martyemmons1859]

You're playing some powerful songs, Ashley. This one will always touch my heart. No matter what time or day it is. Every Saturday was an event. We all made our schedule before or after Soul Train.

[@charlesbarber7523]

Kelly also did a remake of this song. This song resonates with the Baby Boomers generation with African Americans. We had our families and mother was the backbone and made everything alright when things didn’t look good. Today’s mothers will never understand because everything is about money and having the latest and greatest of things. All we needed as kids is love, good cooking and the lessons of life.

[@bakercarl8518]

Whoa Ashley!!! You have slipped past the history mummy's beyond 2 pac. I hope you enjoy this original.❤

[@kurtadams3021]

Sweet Philly Soul

[@victhebassman1]

Everybody always talking about The Temps! But The Spinners was my Group! The Best Harmony bar none! Henry, Pervis, Billy And Bobby and Soul Wynne! And please don't sleep on John Edward! He had about 5 octaves!

[@hooper4011]

We watched Saturday morning cartoons until 1100, then it was SOOOOUUUUUUULL TRAIN!!!

[@jerrybowen8722]

This is grown folks music😊😊

[@kurtadams3021]

I agree with you on J z

[@randywilliams2907]

On July 13, 1984, while performing at Ivey's nightclub in Oakland, California, Wynne suffered a heart attack and died the following morning. RIP Philippé Wynne!

That's a true fact that it doesn't matter how much wealth that you have nor does it matter how long you live it's what you do while you're on this earth, you make your own heaven and hell right here on earth, every day that God allows you to wake up count it as a Victory and never let defeat have the last word, I believe in mining your own business and change your way of thinking and keep on living, No Envy No Jealousy No Hatred in your heart and when you Walk always act like you have somewhere to go

[@Collapsus28]

“first time” my ass 😂 cant even

[@geraldjackson3921]

Hard knock life is the only Jay-Z song I listen to

[@tysonroberts9887]

Got that right 👍

[@levil4012]

Such a classic song and despite his issues I think R Kelly did a STELLAR job with the remake

[@donaldmartin836]

We all must understand that we are all part of the Village. Sadie has many names in different tribes here in America 🇺🇸.

[@djrh3690]

My Sadie is my grandma…i miss you, but will see you on the other side!

[@mrfunnylookinhayes9088]

I can say the same. I don't know not one of his song I like

[@princedejour2686]

I'm not a Big Jay Z mainly because of the way him and Puffy robbed and took advantage of all of their artists!!

[@sonyamcdowell8015]

Rkelly did this too.

[@FBA_God_Emperor_Doom]

Sadie was his mother.

[@AntoinetteRolark]

Then you need to check out Midnight Special girl you are late start with that go into the Midnight Special and work your way to Soul Train Midnight Special was a awesome awesome you would be amazed at the lyrics you will be amazed at the music you'll be amazed at the performance Midnight Special with something to really be hooked on we was hooked on Midnight Special that's where it all started Soul Train came later

[@geraldjackson3921]

Sadie is his mother

[@60mrsapm]

Ashley Brianna, you must listen to this song until the end (its entirety) so please do yourself a favor and listen to the album or KZbin full version.

[@dawg40fn]

R Kelly did his version of this song

[@sonyamcdowell8015]

This song keep uppering it build up and then back down Emotional.

Lost my mom in 2017 , I thought I could listen and not get in my feelings. Nope😢

[@kennethkoon3290]

.My neighbor wrote this son about his mother Sadie

[@sydboski]

Ashley, If you do reactions to Rap, you need to look up Rakim the GOAT of all lyrical MC's. Some of his hit are: I Ain't No Joke, I Know You Got Soul, Follow the Leader, and many more. I hear you say you like to know where the samples come from. Well look deep into James Brown. A WHOLE LOT of Rap, R&B, and Pop songs have sampled The Godfather of Soul. Listen to the beats and rifts A lot of stuff you thought was original, is not, a huge chunk of it came from Mr. Brown!!

[@minelliradney9132]

The leader left the group upset He tried to make it on his own He could not He died hurt

[@MrBishop1954]

All those guys are copy cats this is The Spinners Who finally got into the Rock and Roll hall of fame this year

[@yolandsrevels3288]

[@Dabridge4009]

I feel you on the jayz drag lmaoooo.....not feeling him..

[@sereneamani1713]

This song and "Let's Stay Together" are my two most favorite songs of time.

[@SlyVaughnHOBH]

JZ you ain't missing nothing. He's rock'n on the dark side.

[@AntoinetteRolark]

Then you need to hear The O'Jays For the Love of Money

[@expecttowintv1858]

I’m about to drop you some coins Ashley for what you just said. The Spinners, Al Green, The Isley Brothers, etc didn’t sample ANYBODY. People like Puff, Jay Z, Tupac etc took beats that were ALREADY HITS and put their lyrics on top of them.

[@TheOfficialAshleyReacts]

I think that’s what makes me have so much love and respect for older music ! 💓💓 it’s truly amazing when you think of it from that standpoint. They created music for years to come 😍🥰 these artist today definitely do it. Nothing is ever truly original nowadays !

[@dennisguild4052]

Unlike you i have only one JZ song and thats hard knocks life,none other.

[@generaines6369]

Don't worry about Jay-Z. I'm an old school rap-head and I don't really feel Jay-Z either. I do like Nas though?
