40 years later Morris Day looks the same i have what he's having

I love that Prince’s magic still lives on!! I’m forever an adoring fan of Prince! Love The Time!! 💜💜💜💜🔥💜❤️

They were all in a group together. Morris played the drums. Prince started a solo career. They no longer had a lead singer so he came from behind those drums lol. No surprise that they sound alike. Starting playing together since high school.

Amazingly beautiful

Yup

I was having the best romantic part of my life when they were out Went to the movie and listened to prince and Morris, etc

This is how my generation had fun. Good music and dancing, no fights or shootings at a party. Just everyone having a good time.

Big facts.. it had a real soul train vibe! It was a party!

Morris Day and the Time never gets old...

Amen

De mi

Absolutely. I was a teenager in the 80s and I been a fan ever since. Me n my friends would do the bird in the hallway after lunch. Good times 😂🤣

I'm so glad to have seen the whole band in London . i'll take that to heaven when i go...

Yassss! What being a performer really is. Some of these new age could NEVER!!!!

YES he sure did!!🔥

Yeesssss!!❤️💯

That's facts. I miss real music

Yes! and 64 years old…. Our people are something else…. WOW!

Mm They don't suffer from arthritis my started in my late 50 s

He's 65, he's been preforming since 1981

He is Morris, He is 😎

Yeah I noticed that and wonder do he suffer for AR

No autune

Yea…the audience didn’t pass the vibe check.

Love me some Morris day and the time as well,need 2 bring more .music like the back

@Msshadylady21, The whole audience was up dancing, singing, & loving it! Every age! It was electrifying & one of the best hyped audience’s & on their feet enjoying a performance that I have seen. They had the top 3 or top 5 audience loving it & enjoying themselves in the history of award shows of all time. Morris Day & The time are in the top 5 of audiences at ward shows enjoying themselves. Top 3

Yes ,you are right. The young people in the audience was exciting to watch, but I was referring in general, the younger generation of today.

I'm on the same page with you 💯 percent. This generation honestly need to study a page from this book. This performance was excellent.

I agree! My question is why does Morris have dudes dancing behind him mimicking his every move? .. just sayin'

.. oooops 🤪! Loved the lovely ladies immensely! 😍

@@robertmorrisey7140 don't ask questions....have a seat and watch what cool looks like!

@@Yemaya888 I ask questions.

@@Yemaya888 😎✌️

🎯 yes I agree

Yes and Stephanie Mills.

@@tgd9477 Absolutely you're right

Most definitely💯💯

True i like to see the real time band all the first members all get in that movie purple rain as i watched it over great flick glad it was done at that time Prince showed the whole world how good he really was as he had all the actors in place and some funny stuff as well a part i liked was morris and Jerome was coming on the stage to perform they were about to walk up the steps ran into Prince and Morris said stick around let me show you how its done Jerome was helpping Prince close his jacket that Prince had on as to say leave i was like dam thats classic funny as hell

Hip replacement is amazing! Lol

He is 66 this year! Actually today! I love Morris Day! 80sbaby here 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽

I bought 'What Time Is It' on cassette at Rosedale Mall (Twin Cities) in 1984. I had heard it before that, but didn't have enough cash to buy it when it came out (1982, when I was 12). The record store clerk even gave me a nod of recognition. (This won't make sense to anyone born after 2000 or so) Awesome band!

That was a have to have in 84!!

Indeed

Ethnicity has nothing to do with music taste.

I am white and grew up in the Motown era and every white person I knew loved Motown. Charlie Pride was the first black person to be a country music star and now we have Darius Rucker, who is a member of the Grand Ol’ Opry.

@Ezarhia do you have any idea what the name of the guitarist is? I can't find the info anywhere! TIA.

@@manjufrodoI believe that was Jimmy Jam

@@1079noel Jimmy Jam was born in 1959... the guitarist in the video looks too young to be JJ (and doesn't look like him).

@@manjufrodo I meant Terry Lewis, same slim build, no facial hair

@@1079noel Lewis was born in 1956. The guitarist looks too young to be Lewis.

This was me.........💃🤗💃😃💃☺💃😊💃

But didn't realize Morris was the only member performing, everyone else were rentals!?

Me too, from ear to ear! 😍

Me too🔥

the Houseband. At least some are the same musicians, as seen with the JiimyJam/Terry Lewis-Performance he did, or some of them who went on stage with Prince and Sheila E on The ALMA's. As i've seen it twice now, i saw some familiar faces. I guess this was done to prove a nasty point in the ongoing legal debate with the Prince-Estate, who own the NAME "the Time". Morris gets a kick out of hearing the synth lines done by real horns he said. sometimes it's not for cheapness or "fakeness" or whatever, sometimes it's the business itself, shooting itself in the leg. That didn't stop Uncle Mo from doing this properly for one last TIME.

That's not Jerome

Are you out if your mind??? Morris has had so much damn surgery on that face he not only doesn't look ANYTHING like himself, he doesn't even look human....

@@pauledwdz yeah, it actually is....

@@giondennis6808 lmao that's funny 😁

True. After almost 40 years.

Thank you for saying this. I'm 33 and a huge fan

@@FunPhonicswithSelina No problem. You're welcome.

I caught that too, @teri. Everyone seemed to know the lyrics, regardless of age.

💜

My mama showed me, and I am showing mine Hopefully, it'll live on ❤

Swag was on blast. Pimp AF

I hope they perform until the wheels fall off

The walk up is the best...lol

"YUP 💯% FACT!!!!"

Yessa❤

Yup! I was waiting on him to break out the mirror…ICONIC! Respect. 🙏🏽

That wasn't Jerome

@@Natefunk49 yes, that is Jerome Benton

@@Natefunk49 yes that is jerome

My man Jerome Benton, how you doing Morris?

No cussing no naked people fresh music they still sound the same.all the song are good

Same here, you couldn’t help but move your body !!! Back when Prince, Morris Day & The Time, Vanity, Tina Marie were rocking it !!!

Yes!!! Took me way back!

Same here, my late husband and I danced to this and pilrdy the kids in the car to watch purple rain at the drive in. Wonderful memories.

I thought I was the only one with tears in her eyes - Took me to another time, place and space!!

It fills your heart to know after everything we’re still here too.

They do most of they're shows in clubs in Minneapolis.. on a regular basis I have a ball everytime I went to see them

Yes, he was!

James Brown's band

@@1971bubbaj Yes, it was!

Mr Morris ILOVEYOU musical 🎼 ❤❤❤Debra always ❤️ 😅🎉❤❤❤

Love Jerome....he got it going on just grooving there!

Except the BAND wasn’t there.

@@SuperBass1964 exactly, the Original 7ven is who should have been there and been honored

@@PearsonJd2 I hear ya, Bruh..Jimmy & Terry are busy running their label and producing, Monte is busy producing, Jesse went solo and is playing with Deangelo, Jellybean is doing his own records (he's been playing guitar and is pretty good. He has a song out called, "Renaissance" and Dr. Fink has a keyboard solo on it👍🏿😊). I do wish the original folks would get back together and do another album. It's been 11 years since "Condensate". Peace.

It should be a national requirement that everyone has to see the movie “Purple Rain”, so they can understand

@@ayo0o0o0o0 omfg...u know JEROME? IM SO JEOLOUS! LOL

True entertainer. 💜

This is how my generation had fun. No fighting, no shoo.

Real talk this is the forever jam

Indeed

Da Baby in his diaper would disagree. smdm…

Classy in clothes is right. Dignified style is a thing of the past. This noise today is disgraceful. I miss old school class act singers.

Just love them man❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Yes, they are😎👏🏿💜

I agree with you 100 percent I enjoyed watching this performance a couple of times and wished I could have been there to see the epic performance!

Not really you just don't listen to much music if you think this

@@nathanakpe4897 Not many come close to the sound of James Brown, Little Richard, Prince and Morris Day.

Meeeeeeeeeee💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃

🤭😂😂😂😂🔥

of course i had to. 😃!!!!

Yes, they having!

And they still look good. I Remember before Prince ascended to the heavens and did that Super Bowl half time show I was jealous as fk. I wonder what is in their diets?

SEE! Right there!FRFR

@Checkmate_213 No, I was making a reference to *Prince's* song verse: _"Cause tonight we're gonna party like its 1999!"_ 😏
