I went to Atlantic City NJ from NY in 1985. I Just turned 21, so I could gamble. I lost my money but on the way back, I heard this song in my Walkman. The local stations between AC and NYC loved it too, they played it several times. Thank you Deejays, you made the trip worthwhile.

This song is a whole vibe! 🎉🎉❤❤

Wow oh why can't they make songs like this anymore

One of my fav 80s ballads! His voice was soooooo smooth - and you gotta love the way that chiming synth and fat bass go together. Also: I NEED THAT ORIOLES HAT! 😃😃😃

The legendary El Debarge sings lead on this song.

You all are too cute together!

If its a david foster produced and arranged..its a hit. Incredible melody.

I've always felt that this is DeBarge`s best song...To me this is a classic.

This was one of my wife’s favorites cause it has her name. But I never remember hearing this until I met her in the 90’s😂 I grew up in the 80’s but missed this one 😂😂😂 R.I.H. Donna💚

You cannot go wrong with this group.

Nothing like them beautiful 80’s ballads ❤️🇨🇦

The production on this song is out of this world!!! Debarge knocked it out of the park on this one!!! One of my all time top favorites!!!

" I cant get Donna off my mind !"

I graduated from High School in 1985, it was by far the best decade for music 🎶 ❤

This song and “I like it” are my favorites by DeBarge

So talented.Such a tragic story they lived through. Still going strong.

I requested this song in the comments months ago, Now they finally played it! GREAT JOB 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Amazing group. Miss those days

Never knew they did a song about my name ! DONNA! Love it!😘

A dream with Bunny Debarge singing lead is my favorite song

great track

1984 FOR THIS HIT SING. I HAVE THE 45 STILL.-------------MJL,76 Y/O

I remember my crush on a real Donna in high school when this song came out lol. Unrequited love lol

This and "time will reveal" are the best debarge songs.

Hello. Great song by Debarge.

I sure do miss the old school R&B! 70's- early2000's R&B was the best. I was in 9th grade when this came out. Best of times and music. Great reaction!❣️

I am a Donna and never heard this before. 👍 Awesome 😎😊

We Appreciate the love! Great reaction

Debarge and the song "I like it"

One of my favorite song of All time. I used to sing this song in karaoke. That falsetto is so beautiful

wow... holy childhood batman... I was only a kid at the time, but i still remember this song playing on the radio and early days of MTV.

He always reminded me of Prince.

One of one favorite songs from the 80s for sure.

They are from Grand Rapids, MI. near us and we have always loved their music and incredible voices.

By far my favorite DeBarge song. Thru all of em this is it.

Bought the cassette when it came out. Still have it.

Another great group.

Absolutely beautiful song. Always have loved it❤

Thanks Shawn and Mel for doing this song! Had yet to see a reaction to it until this point. It’s one of my favorites.

Oh I can feel my 16 year old heart rebreaking. I was so in love with my high school sweetheart when that song was released and we broke up.

I think falling in love with someone who doesn’t feel the same( or barely even knows you ) prepares your heart for the one that comes along later who really loves you , it’s painful thing but it happens and makes your heart stronger for real love. I think it happens to young men more than young women..

Not heard this one before, it's lovely. "Rhythm Of The Night" by De-Barge is the only song (great) I know by them. ❤🎶

Song was released like a week after my gf Donna broke up with me. 😢

Starlight express is my favorite. Please do a reaction for that as well. ❤❤❤

Ohh man I remember this playing when I broke up with my first girlfriend

Listen to "Someone " by El Debarge.

Do you remember one of Buffy's lines from the pilot episode: - you look like de barge! I still wonder if that vampire was offended or not!😂

Try Debarge All my love and Anything by Switch

This jam came out around the same time my high school girlfriend and I had broken. Talking about who she was with and what she was doing? It brings back memories. Thanks.

They were the first biracial group on Motown. Like this was deep right before Teena Marie left to start writing her own songs. Eh, Teena left for Elektra records and Rick James just stayed with Motown. But Debarge had some funky songs like: "All This Love", "Stay with me (which was sampled by Biggie in One More Chance remix), "Rhythm of the Night", "A Dream" (sampled by Tupac in I ain't mad at cha and Don't Leave Me by Blackstreet), Time will Reveal, I Like it, Share My world (sampled by Mary J Blige), and Who's holding Donna now?

im currently working on a remix of this song. LOVE this group!

El Debarge is on lead. Please do A Dream by Debarge it's my favorite by them. Lead by their sister Bunny.

Good grr

I'm holding Donna now. She feels food FAM lol

Have you guys done Rhythm of the Night yet? If not, you definitely should. It's such a great song. Enjoyed your reaction. All the best!

In case no one told you, they were a family group One of them was married to Janet Jackson.

Please do I Call Your Name by Switch

Gotta do second time around by them and this ring...sorry it's actually SHALIMAR BUT THEY HAVE THE SAME SOUND 😊

They used to be called Switch

They don’t make music like this anymore

React to Where is my love by El Debarge and Babyface

Wasn’t El a teenager when he wrote this song?

A dream..
