This track is a cult classic in the gay community (for all the obvious reasons). The Weather Girls (Originally billed as Two Tons o' Fun), were the backup singers for Disco legend Sylvester (a gay icon himself). Martha Wash ("we're your Weather Girls") went on to have a successful solo career.

Total classic. Everybody was up and dancing to this back in the 80s when I was in college in San Francisco. Gay, lesbian, straight, if you you weren't up on your feet, get out of the club! RIP Sylvester.

@vegasbaby3669 2 жыл бұрын

Hey there, they actually didn’t win the Grammy, and the category that they were nominated for wasn’t “Best Dance Tunes”, there’s actually no such Grammy Category by that name. 😁 They were nominated for Best RnB Vocal Performance by a DUO or Group. They lost out to a Rufus (feat. Chaka Khan) song called “Ain’t Nobody”, at the 1984 televised Grammy Awards, honoring the 1983 year. I’m sorta an “Awards Buff”. 😁

Then one of them got robbed by CC Music Factory - they stole her track for their monster hit, “ I Got the Power” . They had a skinny model lip syncing her voice in the video. So she actually was NOT a one hit wonder. Watch 20 Feet From Stardom documentary about the greatest backup singers.

Lisa Fischer "How Can I Ease The Pain", and Martha Wash "Everybody Everybody" were the two most underrated singers of that era. Lisa IMO was the MOST underrated with that incredible showmanship and unbelievable range. Martha has lost a bit off her high end, but Lisa can still hit that really high F6. Incredible woman. As for The Weather Girls (Two Tons' Of Fun), their other great cut was "Just Us".
