The O'Jays - Use Ta Be My Girl (Official Soul Train Video) 

This is what it's all about, best tunes on the planet, just wanna dance and sing, cheers everyone - one love :)

Who is listening to this beautiful song in 2024. Music for people that loves Old School jams. It takes the sorrow away... Love it..

2024 check-in...🤟

Solid masculine and talented Black brother singing a love song to a wonderful Black woman. No cussing, saggy pants or sissy make up. Back when men were raised with fathers in the home and not baby mamas with multiple baby daddies

As a 58 year old black man and musician, I have to make a controversial statement. Black men in 2023 (recording artists), do not sing about love and joy anymore. Period! That is so sad. I can't even think of any rapper/hip-hop artist in 2023, who's music is this joyful, positive and endearing as the O'Jays. It's not even close. Also remember that the O'Jays were "young black men" too, when this song was written and performed on Soul Train. It's an honor to have been an "impressionable" black teenage boy back then. All the R&B black music stars had a positive vibe and energy that shaped all of us for the better. I can't even imagine being a 14 year old black boy in 2023, and being shaped by rappers/hip-hop artists rapping about "bitches/hos/niggas". Yikes! I'll take a pass. In closing, this is a great memory, and the O'Jays really show how it's done here. Amazing music and performance! I know all you haters out there are going to come after me and say rap and hip-hop is the same "vibe" as R&B in the 70s. Wrong! Once again, it's not even close! Cheers, Sam.

I love the most underrated group in music history... July 29,2024.

As a 62 year old white man I must admit that this music was the best back in the day 😮 Love that music

“ AND IF I HAD THE CHANCE I WOULD TAKE HER BACK “

THEIR FOOT WORK WAS THE VERY BEST!🎉

This song is for my beautiful wife Tina because she the woman that I love so much Amen 🙏

Born in 1964. I grew up listening to 70s music . They don't make music like this anymore

Thing is, you either love this music, or you don't, in my 71 years on this Earth I have never met anybody who DON'T!!!!

Walter's voice was just so damn smooth.

I grew with real music I'm blessed

There is no better music than some old soul music.

Back in the day.Didn't we enjoy this song Dooley county👸🏽 In a young lady you wanna dance? Young people don't know nothing about these kind of song

Happy Birthday to Walter Williams (8/25/43). 80 years and still going strong.

I didn't know Walter sang lead on this! The O'Jays could sing and dance, and they looked great! Walter is my new crush - after all this time!!! Ikr???😊😊

Stepping, footwork, not happening anymore. Those were the days.

God is sooooooo good I meet my Fiance about 3 months and he said he my soulmate.The next Sunday in church a member said the exact same thing.This our song ❤🙏🏿😊

MY UNCLE PLAYED THE O'JAYS CONSTANTLY . I KNOW EVERY WORD TO EVERY SONG . THEY DO NOT MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS ANYMORE. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

It's been 60 years...no clue where you're at Donna...but I miss dancing to this with you

The 70s music will put you on a different planet that no one will understand unless you love the 70s music. You don't need drugs or alcohol to enjoy the best music ever. God....take me back to the 70s and leave me there....I'll be just fine.

When music was music not the rubbish that they come out with now.

I'm not trying to sound soft or weak but watching these brothers dance and feeling their music brings tears of joy to my eyes. Man i miss real soul music, i grew up listening to songs like this, the vocals are so dam amazing. No autotune, just real RAW TALENT! Yessuh!

Walter Williams is smooth.

There will never be music like 70 again music told a story back then😅

Jamming to this at the gym on the treadmill at 5am and don't care who sees😅

No music like this today. Pure class.

Folks, gives Sammy Strain his credit for being one hell of a dancer.

Just like how The Temptations had that "thing" the O'Jays did too!!!

Man lead singer voice is so Silky smooth....relaxing music

The 70s you can never forget it,

"Ladies and gentlemen put ya hands together for the Mighty O'Jays!" - Don C. LEGENDS

Great music like this lives on forever❤God gave me His Best for 29 yrs. & I thanked Him everyday for my Darryl Clifford Sanford🙏🏾 RIP MY LOVE❤️🥰💋

The choreography, the voices and the meaning of the song. Pure soul.

My dad used to play this in the late 70s/early 80s. He would sing and my sister and I would dance. I miss him tremendously. RIP Daddy ❤

This was the time when male singers intended to woo their female audience. It worked!!

2023 i aint herd hit on the radio sence 1958 lets party with are great jams its on

The O’Jays are in the process of doing their Farewell Tour. I’m going to miss these guys. Great voices, songs and dance moves/choreography. You can’t just play this video one time. O’Jays, you are the Best!

Eddie goes deep into his music , he sings a majority of the songs with his eyes closed ❤

OK. This is going to be a tad on the weird side, but the "Shoop do, shoo do, shoop do , shoo do" is a tune I hum to myself to swing a golf club. It gives me a good tempo and keeps me from gripping the club too tightly. Told ya it was gonna be weird! Thanks, O Jays.

I'm a 90s baby, i know a lot of people say that the 90s is the best musical era, but this music right here was obviously before I was even born, yet it touches my soul as if I was born in this era, to me if r&b soul were a tree, the 70s would be the roots, 90s the trunk

Soul Train is the reason I know most of the soul singer’s choreography from the 70s. I saw the O’Jays for the last time in concert as they are officially retired from touring.

Killing those dance moves! Now I know where the skaters get their dance moves from on skates.

Boy Eddie Was Gettin' Down 🕺🏾🔥

2024 Anyone 🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾

Y'all check out Eddie! In every live performance, he looks like he's thoroughly enjoying himself, especially at 2:09-2:26!

The man never understands the spirit of the woman . Beautiful song.

I have been so blessed to be alive for this wondrous time in this world!!! Thank you God, and your holy son Jesus Christ!!🙏🏻

God is sooooooo good I meet my Fiance about 3 months and he said he my soulmate.The next Sunday in church a member said the exact same thing.This our song ❤🙏🏿😊

Walter voice is amazing. Always loved him.

The OJays For as long as I can remember. Music that love can relate to.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Walter was so handsome💕

LIVING LEGENDS 👑 1#HOLY SPIRIT 🔥

❤ THE BROTHERS COULD REALLY MOVE! LOVE LOVE LOVE ALWAYS 💋

The O'Jays are an excellent soul group. Eddie Levert and Walter Williams are still going on strong. Nothing beats. Love Train. RIP, William Powell

Walter at his stunning best.

One of the O’Jays finest moments.The Tops for me,Levi was not just the greatest lead singers in a group,he is up there with the finest singers.

Happy Birthday to Eddie Levert, longtime member and co-lead singer of the legendary O'Jays, born June 16th, 1942. On June 16, 2024 he celebrated his 82nd birthday. By any measure, the O'Jays are one of the most important Soul Music groups of all-time. Whether delivering funky dance music, romantic ballads, or thoughtful social commentary in song

Love The O'Jays!! Still listen to them to this day and I'm 61 yrs old!

Hey O'Jays show these young untalented singers, and untalented rappers, how it's done

That’s what you call entertainment, now yall this is stepping, smooth guys.😊

Come y’all take us back to our lovely good old days when the music made you fall to your knees 😅❤

EDDIE SHOULD YOU READ THIS, PLEASE BRING ON THREE MORE Albums O' JAYS FOREVER!!❤

Man look how classy, and elegant this performance was that's what's missing nowadays. Music nowadays hypersexual and perverted what happened to just being talented, and dignified.

My dude Eddie is moving!!!

Can’t no other group step like dem OJAYS!!!❤

I was in the Army in Berlin.Man I was jamming.

Miss that Philadelphia sound!

Love this song!!!!!!!!! Ahh the 70s..hairy chests with gold medallion..a prerequisite for any budding singer...maybe not if yr a woman 😅

One of the great things about groups like the O'Jays was not only could they sing their azzes off, they could do it live while simultaneously executing complex dance routines; often with a different dance routine for EVERY song in their set. That is truly badazz. #respect.

Miss truly my 1978!!!!!!!!!!! And my parents 😢😢

Their choreography was sharper than a 1400s Japanese samurai sword💯

Love the dance moves, Eddie Levert getting his groove on 🕺🏾

LOVED 70’s music‼️❤️

I was born in the '60s, raised in the 70s, graduated from high and joined the Army in the 80s. Thank you God, I believe I had the best of all music to enjoy.

Love the lead vocals by Walter Williams on this timeless and all-time great love song.

Singing about bad luck and how God is this great song 🙂👍

I had a huge crush on Walter Williams. I liked them all but he was the one. Love the O'Jays...thanks for the beautiful music and memories, guys.

oh yeah, from back in the days of happy music and groups that were happy performing the same.

When I first heard this song in the 70s as a kid I thought it was one of the greatest song I had ever listen man and now look at this video the dance moves wow wow 👌 👏

In memory of lost love ❤ lord have mercy

Glad my days were in the 70's. That's when music was so beautiful and soulful. 🥰🎶💃🌴 The Philly Sound...WOW ❤️

My mom's favorite .. RIP ❤

Standing Ovation 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆The greatest❤❤❤❤❤

I grew up watching whatever tv channel had motown shows 9n and tried not to miss any, my late mother told me all the stories of the motown stars and the dances they did. She helped me embrace My soul so much she didn't sugar coat anything either i appreciated all that to this day thanks Mom ❤️✊ you were the best!!!

Walter was the cool, sexy crooner and Eddie was the passionate powerhouse. What a combo.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Classic and timeless.... One of my dad's favorite. Reminiscing about my childhood..... Especially with no bills to pay... Thanks dad and mom

I'll forever be team TSOP, and I'm not even from Philly. They cranked out some timeless hits.

It is a shame that the younger ones will never appreciate this kind of music. I'm a Hispanic woman born and raised in Texas. I'm 58 now grew up reminiscing about this music. Still listen to the oldies of the 50s and 60's. It is the music we all grew up with. Love watching Soul train love watching the dancing.

I THINK 🙏GOD🙏 FOR GIVING THE WORLD THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE THE "OJAYS" ONE OF A KIND TALENTS!🙏

Dreamy watching these guys ☺️

❤❤❤ this music, I was a70's girl, so many wonderful songs and memories,at the time we thought it would never end😢

D'accord avec vous Mister or Mrs J. C'est désolant aujourd'hui Rien arrive à la cheville des artistes des années 70s !!!!

Good Lovin! 💕🤎❣️♥️

There’s nothing like it

Hop aboard the TRAIN baby 🎶 ❤

Happy 😊 days the 70s and the O'Jays.

Choreography definitely 💯 on point. One of my favorite groups back in the day.
