You came with it this week, SjP...I love Ooh Child...makes me just want to do something positive...

And you can never go wrong with Stevie...

Excellent! Have a good weekend!

Oooh child indeed! Hands down, this may be the best true old school pick this week! It is a song that makes you feel better. Would have been a good pick for inspiration last week too.

And you're right, Little Stevie didn't need ANY help. He is his own group!

Have a great weekend!

Little Stevie! He definitely did not need a group. He's amazing all by himself.

I don't know if I've ever heard the Five Stairsteps before, the video won't play for me. :(

Great picks this week as you always do. I like, I like.

You know Stevie is a group unto himself!

Wonderful choices Sojourner. They both bring a smile to my face. You took it way back and Little Stevie was brilliant then and he is to this day.

I love that song Oh Child but never knew who sang it and would have never thought it was a "kids group".

Have a blessed week.

I was a old teenager when these guys came a long.My younger siblings loved them and i was still dancing. The teenage age group of my youth was Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers and the Bop was the dance. Goody Goody was my favorite song, that young man had a voice. thanks Sojourner! going to get out my CD's.

Oh my how my daddy would walk around singing "oh child" the song always make me kinda sad listening to it as a child, I'm not sure why just one of those things I guess, and one can never go wrong with Stevie.

Ooh Child is my husband's favorite song, and when Tupac remixed it, I was on cloud 9, our favorite song with my favorite rapper.

I forgot Stevie started off young. He has one of the longest successful careers.

MsMarva - this cut reminds me so much of my cousin. She loved this song!

VT - you make me blush...much obliged!
__________
SDG - much obliged...my old school is really old school...way back in the day. Glad you enjoyed them.

Danielle - I'd completely forgotten about them until they popped up on YouTube! Then I knew they would be perfect for this week. And just could leave Stevie out!
__________
Georgia - I remember Frankie because my "older" cousins use to really like him. But, the Five Stairsteps...well, that's my era. Brought back memories.
__________
TBG - did you read my response to Georgia above...LOL.
__________
Mrs G - I liked the Tupac remix, too. Course, not much I don't like by Pac...


Much obliged for dropping by...

I love that song it reminds me of my childhood. It was inspirational and sad all at the same time. Maybe sad for they way things were and hopeful for the way hings could be?? I don't know, but it was an awesome song!
And who does not like Stevie, that man is a musical genius!!

Chi Town In The House!

The Five Stairsteps and Cubie! Those folks know that they could sing.

And you really brought me back to my youth with Little Stevie Wonder! AAAAHHH!

Good choices SjP!
I love OSF!

Happy OSF! I recall the song (Oooh Child), but, I never knew the name of the group singing it. OSF educatin' a brotha!

Thank you for visiting my Ol' School Jackson 5 response to the 'Kid's Group' theme. I invite your blog readers to check it out if they have time or inclinaton.

peace, Villager

Sometimes doing these things is like a history lesson. I knew Stevie started very young. "The Five Stairsteps" song is awesome. I knew the song I hear it all the time, but never knew who did it.

you weren't lying at all...you surely did go way back. fortunately, i like some oldies and i am especially a fan of the first song/video.

great picks!

:::Marcus LANGFORD:::

Hey SJP!

Great picks! I had no idea that the five stairsteps were a kid group!!! And Stevie Wonderful is always a favorite!
