Saw K&TG 4 times live here in the UK during the 80s on the "Emergency" tour... My sis had a mini bus full of friends but no driver so I drove but wasn't keen on going to the gig itself but did, AND OMG I was hooked from the get go. Superb 😊👍
I always liked that Kool is the one usually in the back playing bass. These guys were a huge part of the 80’s. You couldn’t have danced for long without hearing them.
The 80's were fun! People still dressed up, DANCED (not like today) and were just...happier and nicer. I never thought I'd look BACK on a decade and miss it...but I do.
I remember the song but had never seen the video or what Kool and his gang looked like. Seeing Kool's 'product' drenched hair styling reminded me of the fun they made of men's hair products in Eddie Murphy's fun movie 'Coming to America'. It was like a running gag throughout the movie. (India, if you haven't seen that movie you should!!!).
I just had a flashback! Riding with mom and dad in her new T-roof Mustang. Baby brother in his carseat. Summer time, eating vanilla cones and heading to the mall. Good times!
I was a teenager in the 80’s. The music scene and the dance clubs were 🔥. I Kool and The Gang gave us a lot of great songs to groove to and there were so many more great artists(Prince, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam.......)

I was in 11th grade in 1985 when this Song came out, woohoo! 🙌 YES, The 80's WAS THE BEST! ❤ 💜 🇺🇸 😎 ✌ #OldiesButGoodies 👌 #1980sMusicwasTheBest ❤ #80sHitSongs 😎 👍 💜 🇺🇸 #KoolandTheGang 🎹 🎵 🎸
J.T.Taylor a former teacher joined Kool and the gang and put them on the map..Love them. "Joanna"," Get down on it", "Cherish the Love","Celebrate. Sooo many hits.
I love this song so much too my grandfather use to play this in his Corvette now I play it in my SS Camaro in this generation tradition lol overall great review on a catchy song from 1985...👍😁
Kool and the Gang. Kool is the bass player. He comes out briefly with his bass and dances while still playing the bass. The lead singer James Warren Taylor or J T Taylor. Joined the band in 1979. During those years the group had their most success. Ladies NIght, Celebrate. Both big hits. Then he left and band only had minor success after. Great party band.
I'll watch any Kool and the Gang reaction you do! One of the biggest bands in my teens. So many songs to choose from. Get Down On it, Too Hot, Jungle Boogie, Hollywood Swinging, Celebration, Misled. Thanks!
Back in the seventies and eighties kool in the gang where the best music groups they had so many good songs you can still take this song and music to any disco club's and people will get up and dance the night away ❤ 👌 😴 🤣 🙌 😂 ❤ 👌 😴 🤣 🙌
I have seen them in 2017 in France And It was one of my best musical experiences !! Just Amazing, juste like in the 80's ! Same sound, Same energy...Thks So much guys.💎💎💎💎💎🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I just found you today and saw this video reaction, so cute. I love Kool & the Gang. My favorite song by them, mislead, is sooooo 80s and I love it. I would love if you would react to the music video.
The break dancing moves mixed with some sweet James Brown footwork. Speaking of James Brown, I have yet to see anyone react to his stuff. Payback is one of my favorites, but he has so many.
Hi India, I love how you take time to listen to the words and not talk over the lyrics. It kinda hurts when you refer to this song as “ back in the old days.” Sadly, you’re right. Haha I played this cassette in my car over and over.. especially this tune.
Check out the temps, the tops, the coasters We had the best music in rock, heavy metal, pop, soul and and blues You go back to the 60s&70s the greatest music and the coolest people We had a blast
I know you have reacted to a couple of each group but both groups (Kool & The Gang and The Pointer Sisters) were great groups and they both had many songs that were great. If you like this song "Fresh" and the "slow hand" by the Pointers Sisters, you will like others by both groups. They were great in the 80's. I love and appreciate your reactions India
Kool & The Gang (Celebration, Joanna, Too hot, Get down on it, Cherish, Fresh), The Pointers Sisters (Jump, I'm so excited, He's so shy, Slow hand, Automatic, Neutron dance, Fire, Dare me)
