I fell absolutely head over heals in love with this song the first time I heard it. It was the summer of 1998, I was 14 years old, and I was just discovering that I had a true passion and love for disco music. The movie 54 had just came out in theaters, so I begged my mom to take me to see it - which she did. That's where I heard Lovin' Is Really My Game for the first time. It's 24 years later now, and it is still my absolute favorite disco song of all time, and it always will be! 😁

The city was broke, the subways were filthy (and usually late), much of The Bronx was a burned-out wasteland, crime was rampant, Times Square was as seedy as could be, Son of Sam had just had all all in terror - and yet, just HEARING the awesome opening riff of this incomparable classic and I am LONGING to be right back in that Time and Place. The club scene then, well, you had to have been there to believe it. I'm sure the kids today are as devoted to their music and their clubs, but for all of us lucky enough to have LIVED 70s NY, we know the truth. Our fun was on a scale quite incomprehensible to the kids of today. 84 King Forever...

[@Kevierae]

That's how it was in San Francisco, too, and I'm sure it was this way in many places across the country and around the world. That time and this music (any disco, really) made us all get up and dance the night away. We were younger, at least I was, and lived every day as if it were my last. I'm grateful to be alive today, so many of my generation are gone. But when I hear music like this, they're alive again, and for a moment, we can dance the night away, one more time!

***** I feel you njpir!!!! I arrived in NYC in 1982 at 18 yr.'s old. I remember the dirty, sexy, dangerous ,exciting city NYC was before gentrafacation and all the yuppies took over!! There was an raw energy and electric charge that made the city vibrate with creativity & life. This song takes me back to the Paradise Garage and Larry Lavan who killed us with this classic masterpiece until the club closed in 1986. I'm so grateful I experienced NYC at this time in it's history, it will never be repeated again……...

[@stephenhardy6340]

+njplr AMEN I moved to New York in 1982 it was so much fun, I'll never forget!!! The Most Grimmy, sexiest heaven on earth to be had!!! I lived for the energy and ever present danger around every corner! I was so F-----g young and dumb! I remember wearing out the Paradise Garage and Better Days dancing to this classic, feeling the waves of vocal and instrumental brilliance crashing over my youthful and energetic body. It was a magical experience. Christ, I'd give anything to be transported to to that transformative era!!!

[@abandoned-mines-novascotia]

My god - this is a special find for me... kinda hunting back to look up old vinyl albums I had as a kid. I was a little 10 year old white boy in a tiny town of Nova Scotia, Canada. I bought the Stormin' album at our record store at the mall. I was only a kid, and literally bought albums based on how the album cover art spoke to me. I will NEVER forget that chrome brain !!! Which is why I remembered today, in 2022, to look this up again. *I am kinda shaking and a bit tearful listening to this track right now* As I'm heading into my senior years, I think of how I was blessed with such a huge variety of music when I was a kid. I had no idea what Detroit Funk was... nor any knowledge or influence about race or "black music" in North America. A ton of my albums were from black disco & funk artists at the time - and I naturally loved it as much as everything else. Maybe even more. Hearing this as an adult, decades later - OH THE MAGIC. It was ALWAYS good - it's like a universal given. Now I have the ability and maturity to look up all the information about the band... My GOD - *BELITA WOODS* (RIP) What a freakin' QUEEN ... and *Lamont Johnson* on bass WOW - a master class! Even as a kid, that bass playing stood out to me. Didn't know why it was special - but now I can totally understand. I didn't even know this was a hit song !!! I just loved it, hands down. I'd say it's in the top 25 standout/remembered songs of my childhood. All because that chrome brain led me to pick it up and buy it. Was it fate? I cannot imagine never knowing or discovering this song.

[@FriendofDorothy]

I've heard it said that a great disco 12" single builds and builds the energy like a pressure cooker until it releases it and the dancers go wild as it is a sort of musical orgasm. If that is the case then this record has the hottest musical climax of any, and all of of us dancers needed a cigarette afterwards. (just kidding; no cigs but the beer and cocktails were flowing); it was a blast!. This was Brainstorm's best track in my opinion although I remember another one called "Hot for You". Sylvester did a re-make of this song; it is pretty good but not a volcano like this baby. I made the mistake of letting someone borrow my 12" copy of this and he never returned it so I bought it all over again. I consider this one of the best disco 12" singles ever made.

I will never ever forget the wonderful times back then.. the gay clubs, the sense of freedom and all despite the dark cloud of AIDS and bigotry, we never stopped dancing.. so glad progress has been made (though we still journey on). Songs like this leave an indelible mark and that rush of memories bring me right back as I crank this up dancing again at 65, thinking I’m 20 as I’m flooded with a euphoria that only the 70’s club scene made possible!

This song just epitomizes a true disco jam. This is the 33 1/3 aka Disco version just represents the best in brass, woodwind, percussion and those beautiful strings of the violins. I was 15 years old when this song was release. The Motown sound was in full effect. During that era, we had so many local groups coming up in Detroit. That mid to late 70s still and away will have a special in heart and mind. At the cabarets in Detroit would also play Brainstorm. This high energy disco version song just gets me so excited when I listen to it.

[@ernestanderson3894]

This was one of my jams in my roller skating days. I loved dancing up and down the hills of Central Park to this tune on my Walkman.

[@mitchellscottkushner5307]

This song as few others will forever bring back joy! Flamingo NYC late70’s I will always remember a sea of beautiful men pulsing dancing and releasing incredible energy to this classic!

[@richerndon9244]

I danced to this and wore it out every Saturday at the clubs back in the day. I would no sooner here the first chord and I was on the floor and DARED any one to stop me!

[@071oakland]

Disco soul at its best!! Lead vocalist Belita Woods(( Rest In Peace))) also the co writer.

[@opensecret629]

Really! Thanks for that info. I love this song, her voice and the arrangements.

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

disco just doesn't get much better than this. I'm proud to say I met Belita Woods and made sure I mentioned Brainstorm, and she seemed surprised (she was doing an in-store appearance with George Clinton). Rest in peace Belita, but I REFUSE to believe YOU couldn't "catch no man hangin' out at a discotheque", fine as you were.

God, I remember being on Riis Park Beach one hot summer day (an afternoon, post-Garage session, I'm sure!) and this song was coming out of every boom box on the beach, and let me tell you, in 79 EVERYONE went to the beach with a boom box. No headphones then, either, we all shared our music, it was WONDERFUL. I can still see that beach, everyone boppin', swayin', groovin' to this song....Truly, it was a magical time to live in NY. When 92, KTU ruled the world...:)

[@larrysims5520]

This song. Along with the first two albums really were a mark of genius. This song was a perfect storm. Since this group I've been blessed to play in concert with or side by side a few of the Divas that could do justice to this song. Nobody can be what Belita was to this song. Nobody🎺

I am a straight grandpa but when there's no one around I put this on and make some moves I really shouldn't be able to. at 4 minutes 58 seconds there is probably the most sublime disco moment ever, uplifting

[@two2goats]

I love orchestral disco, Philly Soul, funk, etc. but my wife calls it "crap". She just doesn't get it. There are very few things in life that can beat 4:58 on this track. I'm sitting smiling away at it. Pure magic. The best kind of feel good factor. I feel sorry for people that don't know about this stuff or who can't get it. Keep posting it. I need more!

I just heard this song for the first time about a year ago and I absolutely love it... I can just imagine people dancing their hearts out (back in the 70s) to this awesome disco hit like they did on Soul Train (which is all before my time)... The part that's really killing it is when the horns and what sounds like violins comes in during the musical interlude... Beautiful Belitia Woods had the perfect voice for this song... :)
