My god, what a bunch of lovely weirdos! One of the most exquisite pop songs of the 70s and I always pictured beautiful people hippy types singing it. This gang looks more like my kind of friends. What a wonderful revelation.

Did the group go through a time warp and get younger? They be in their 70's by now.

Elaine, your singing style reminds me of Lisa Stansfield & Taylor Dayne. And in my humble opinion, you sing w/even more soul than both of them.

Alive N Kikin - Tighter&TighterAlive N Kickin’ (known originally as Alive and Kicking, and sometimes spelled Alive 'N Kickin’) is a Brooklyn band, led by singers Pepe Cardona and Sandy Toder, known mainly for their 1970 hit single "Tighter, Tighter" which reached #7 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.In early 1970 the band began recording sessions. A song written and produced by Tommy James, Bob King and arranged by Jimmy Wisner was to be recorded, and although James originally considered having his friends record the song - now known as "Crystal Blue Persuasion" - but he liked it so much he decided to record it himself. As a gesture of friendship to the group he wrote "Tighter, Tighter" for them. After recording the hit song the group replaced Vito and Dave with Ronny Pell and Johnny Parisio. With the new line-up "Tighter and Tighter" was released.The song was released in May 1970 and stayed on the US chart for 16 weeks. It sold over one million copies and received a gold disc awarded by the R.I.A.A.Two singles were almost immediately released to ride on the good fortune of the hit song, but after a lack of success with "Just Let It Come" and "London Bridge," and after increasing difficulties with their producer Morris Levy and the label's insistence on trying to make more singles so quickly, the band quietly broke up in the fall of 1971.(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Look at all the losers in the background. They are oblivious to good music. Going around their merry way looking to steal, rob and murder. The filth that entered into this country over the last 35 years is sickening. If you don't believe in America and don't want to follow its culture or language which is ENGLISH? Then don't come in and get the fuck out! Putrid scum foreigners!
