Dancing In The Street - Martha and the Vandellas - 1964 - Music Video 

IT'S 2021 WHO"S STILL LISTENING TO THIS GOOD MUSIC BESIDE ME?

It's 2024 Who's Listening 👊✌️ Soul Music Forever 👍

This song reminds me of good times that we didn't fully appreciate until now.

I don't care who covers this song NOBODY can sing it like the Vandellas!!! AND I MEAN NOBODY!!!!!!!

It's going on 2023 and still listening to these old jams! Ain't nothing ever going to stop these old tunes!! 👍

In 1964, when this song came on our car radio. stop the car, get out wherever, and start dancing in the streets. You betcha. San Mateo, CA.

One of the best songs to come out of Motown.

This song makes you feel happy!!!

No one could sing this song better than these three Beautiful Ladies.!!!

This will be our country’s anthem after COVID 19.

Thank you sisters❤❤❤

Music that will never die, they don't make them like that anymore

Nearly 60 years on and it's as good as it ever was. My 9 year old grandson grooves to this. Thank you for all the good memories

I get old, but the music doesn't lol ; )

I was dancing to this when it first came out..... I was six.....I'm 62 now....still dancing to this..... It NEVER grows old. Just awesome music, that, sadly is NOWHERE to be found today. Thank Martha and the Vandellas! Love You

Can you believe how good this song still sounds almost 60 years after it was recorded? This attests to the quality of the recording process that Barry Gordy insisted on. The Funk Brothers really drive this song along with the Vandellas' vocals. The drumming is just out of this world. What a great, uplifting, positive song for everyone, no matter your race, creed, etc. Awesome!!!

It was the first week in August when summer school ended for me. Behind me in Algebra One sat a friend from high school -Denise Walker. She poked me in the back and asked if I’d heard this record yet - she pushed a copy of “Heat Wave” at me. I told her I hadn’t heard it yet. She clutched the 45 tightly to her breast and said, “Oh my God it’s fabulous.” I left class that day and walked to where a guy with a 1957 red convertible Chevy was parked - my ride home. As we drove away, “Heat Wave” came on the radio. I was stunned by how brilliant that song was. I went home and learned it on piano that day. I still love to play it. One of the best R-n-R records ever.

Entertainers back then, were so elegant, the way they dressed and dance moves, really appreciate it.

The music I grew up with. There used to be so much music that would just make you HAPPY and want to dance every time it came on! What happened to all that great music? It's here on RU-vid. Let's dance!

OMG. Martha Reeves had a set of pipes that just would not quit. Love listening to her music in August of 2021.

One of the greatest songs ever! Love the old Motown acts!

Martha and the Vandellas ROCK! One of the Greatest Rock Tunes of All Time - a Golden Rock n Roll Classic that will Live On Forever!

Still sounds as good as it did to me dancing to it when I was 8.

When music was great.

I'm so grateful that I grew up with this music! And still listening, never getting enough of the real Motown sound.

It's 2022 and i am still listening. Good music.

Martha knew when she recorded this song that it would be legendary!

I have no idea how a person can listen to this and not want to move. Gets me moving really well on my slowest days. Thanks.

Dick Clark was a great classic act! He didn’t see color! Showcased a lot of us black brothers and sisters. Thanks mr. Clark. Rip!

As fresh today as the day it was recorded, a true classic.

This white man grew up in Baltimore , loved Motown and still listen to it on CDs may be a senior citizen but I listen to oldies.

What a time to be alive great music the greatest

From Switzerland to Morocco I been driving my car with this music.. I like it.. I love it

Started listening to 60's rock and roll on you tube just a few weeks ago and just can't seem to get enough of it even though I have XM radio always tuned in to 60's rock and roll music

-Even a few who tried to copy & do their own version of this 1964,65 Motown monster mega hit just really couldn't come close! ,,,Even much of todays high tech aided songs still get blown away in comparison. And just think, that this was only but 1 early to mid 60s Motown mega hit.

Yes, this is one of their very best, and my favorite. You go girls. Boy glad i was a teen in yhe '60's

Martha made the scene and she brought her Vandelas along as well. Pretty hard to beat a deal like that.

1964 .... I was 14 Living in Philadelphia Loving life Dancing Don't get no better !! 😎✌

Those were the good days growing up in the 60's

How the crap do you not dance to this song??!!

This was a Great song! I'm not feeling well, at the moment; but this certainly cheered me up. I always Loved Martha Reeves and the Vandellas.

Damn Awesome Great Song!!!! Takes me way back!!!! Great Music 🎵🎶🎶🎼!!!!! I'm 70 still Rock n Roll!!!! Oldies Great Era!!!!!!

Wonderful. I heard this when I was 7, over 50 ÿears ago and still love it as much today. Changed my view of magnificent music. X

One of the best songs EVER. Just EVER.

One of the greatest songs ever. Still gets me up and dancing after all this time.

i have no idea how many times i come here and listen this excellent song. like the host said i lot of people done this but never sound quite it excep when they do it!!!!!!

I LOVE MARTHA AND THE VANDELLAS!! THEY ARE IMMORTAL AS,WELL THEY RUN NECK AND NECK WITH THE SUPREMES, I LOVE THE SON , JIMMY MACK, SUPERB!!!

I was living in Brooklyn New York. This song came out, and the birth of the block parties began. This song was played over and over.

This is the kind of music that'll stand the test of time!!👍

I use to could not wait for Martha to say I can't forget the Motorcity representing the D.I lived right down the street from Motown in 1967 and saw a lot of acts in our neighborhood not really knowing they were going to be famous Martha was a receptionist at Motown I remember her front gaped teeth I also remember two of the Vandellas being Marthas sisters Classy ladies the outfits were on point too my mom dressed like that.

What beautiful talented women. This music was before I was born good music doesn't die down. Love it.

I grew up on this type of music and it was and still is great. Love Martha and the "V's"! Still rocking this song 57 years later. If i ever get rich...a club that plays Motown, Disco and Classic Rock from the 60's and 70's.

all these Motown hits still popping off, better than the garbage out today.

I was 15 years old when this came out .helped me through some tough times.

This is 1 of The Main St Cuts that GOT AMERICA DANCING TOGETHER in da streets RATHER THAN Fight...I REMEMBER IT WELL!

I'm thinking this song came on the scene in 1964 and I turned 6 that Summer of '64. The song was a BIG HIT then and to this day in May of 2022 it STILL IS!!..In addition, I believe this is the ONE Motown hit that went global and touched people EVERYWHERE!!

I love going back to memory lane, still listening March,2021

Happy Music!!!

Keep that kinda music.playing.it keeps our.youth alive. Those we or old.our minds or young..as long as.we.can still remember.

This song helped start the music revolution.. It was exciting. The music SMOKES!!!!. This song released an energy, that some elders felt was 'dangerous'.. How can you listen to this song, and NOT start to move your body.. One of Motowns many finest moments

We are dancing in the streets this weekend! Peace, Love and Good Vibrations, BanjoQueen

I remember this song as a teenager in the burbs of Washington D.C. they were fantastic!

Yes! Still Jamming to this song in 2021 at 71 years old Thanks !

Never gets old this song

Have every single album that these girls had put out.....FABULOUS

Rocked out on this while standing on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C. listening on my transistor radio waiting for a bus. Didn't know that just in a few weeks I would meet my wife of 58 years. The rest is history!

we needs songs like that now

Don't know why todays people can't create such a cool song like this

This has to be the single best rock anthem, period. MOTOWN will always rock.

This was one of My Comadre Mary Lievanos and my song's. We had so MUCH fun in our teen year's. Stopping the car and getting off car and start dancing. Thank God we didn't get hit or cause an accident. So sad I type this w tears 😭 pouring out my eyes. Pinche covid came Christmas Eve and ended her life here on Earth and was taken by Angel's to a way better place. No more hurting for my Comadre Mary.

I always loved this song and Martha and Vandellas.

One of the best songs ever recorded. Period!!!

Have to agree. One of the best from the golden age of music

The absolute best version of this song by a country mile.

I am still listening to this song, January 25, 2021. I was 9 years old when this song came out in 1964. Seeing all the violence and protests occurring in the United States today, I think about this song.

LOL...I remember my Mom scolding me once for running out to the street in front on the house and dancing when I heard this song on the radio...I truly thought it was the baaadest thing out ...mom hollered: boy!...u better get out of that street and I mean it!"

My friend and I saw Martha Reeves and The Vandellas about 3 yrs ago at NYC'S B.B.King's Blues Club. We had front row cafe seats. The show was UTTERLY MAGNIFICENT!!!! Her brother even came out and performed solo. He sounded great with his beautiful and rich baritone. Her sister was singing back up so wonderfully as usual too. Talent definitely runs in the family. We waited after the show and I got her to sign her autograph on my Best Of Martha Reeves and The Vandellas double CD and she was gracious enough to allow us to take a picture with her as well.SUCH CLASS!!! I will cherish my autographed CD forever! She even asked me and my friend if we were singers and we both quickly replied "No, we're nurses!.We wished that we COULD sing!" We all had a nice laugh. We knew that we were in the presence of TRUE MOTOWN ROYALTY!!! This was a night that one could NEVER EVER FORGET!! Thank you Ms. Martha Reeves for a FANTASTIC and MOST MEMORABLE PERFORMANCE!!!!!🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏

Love dancing in the street and any where else I am BABy Boomer and this is one of the songs I dance to Portland, or Also I am 71 so go and dance in the street I loved the 60's take me back

The sound track to my young life. Went to Vietnam when this was big. Got there in late 65 and made it back Dec. 66. My life was never the same.

Released on July 31, 1964...got to #2 on the Billboard "Hot 100" chart... #8 on the R&B charts...and #4 on Cashbox...a CLASSIC!!!

Am 73 years old and I loved this song 👌😊 back then and still do ...

As the man said, nobody does it like Martha. It's just way ahead of the crowd.

As a boy born in 1960, I would like to say thank you to all at Motown , for the priveledge of being able to listen to music like this in my life. The best music ever.

Those women, especially Martha, were and are still just too fine.

Better than ever! Back when music was made for fun dancing for boys and girls, together.

I'm 70 years old and I still love this long I listen to all the songs I always have music in my head ever since I was born

Remember when music brought us together instead of pitting us against each other. You can't hate each other dancing to this.

Listening 🎶 forever ♥️ 69yrs old, my adult kids and grandkids 🎉

Its almost 60 years old but it still sounds like the most exciting thing you'll ever hear.

This music will always exist, just play it! As much as Martha's voice gave this song its voice the Motown band gave it a lowdown thump on your heartstring with that driving bass. People instinctively knew and understood the music they were playing, no electronic augmentation just raw soul and genius

I was so fortunate to open up for her...2012...I WAS THERE !!! :)

I grew up in suburban Detroit in the 60s and 70s. Motown coming out of CKLW Windsor Ontario. I'm still in love with this music.

Such Class. Thank you girls

All these years later, still makes me want to go dancing in the street!

If that song don't move you, you have a heart of stone.

A brilliant and talented proof that you can still dance with these girls 50 years on...and more

A real classic song! This was when we had street dances in the streets of America. When I was forever young back in the day. Fantastic song.

I remember this song being played on the radio for an entire summer.

WHAT A GREAT SUMMER OF 1964 MARTHA AND THE VANDELLAS THE SUPREMES AND SO MANY GREAT ARTISTS SMOKEY AND THE MIRACLES THATS WHAT LOVE IS MADE OF!! FOR A LAD OF 14 INCEDIBLE MUSIC!!!

All we need is music! Now get out there and dance and dance in the street too!
