Earth, Wind & Fire - Let's Groove Video (MV)

Music Video

"Let's Groove" is a song by American band Earth, Wind & Fire, released as the first single from their eleventh studio album, Raise! (1981). It is written by Maurice White and Wayne Vaughn, and produced by White. The song was a commercial success, and was the band's highest-charting single in various territories. It peaked inside the top 20 in countries including the United States, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Canada and other component charts in America.

In 1979 and the early 1980s, there was a severe backlash against disco music. In spite of this, the band decided to revive the disco sound that was included on their previous works and later records. Musically, "Let's Groove" is post-disco, pop and funk which includes instrumentation of synthesizers and keyboards along with live electric guitars.

NME placed Let's Groove at number 16 on their Singles of the Year list of 1981. "Let's Groove" was also Grammy nominated in the category of Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group.

The song peaked at number three in the US, becoming their 7th and last top 10 hit. It also spent eight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart in late 1981 and early 1982 and was the second R&B song of 1982 on the year-end charts.

The single sold over a million copies in the US and has been certified gold by the RIAA as until the RIAA lowered the sales levels for certified singles in 1989, a gold single equalled 1 million units sold. "Let's Groove" was also certified platinum in the UK by the British Phonographic Industry.

The style of the music video influenced that of Bruno Mars' "Treasure".

Earth, Wind & Fire - Let's Groove Lyrics

Lyrics

We can boogie down, down up on down
The boogie sound, down up on down
The boogie sound, down up on down
The boogie sound, down up on down

Let's groove tonight (down down upon down)
Share the spice of life
(The boogie sound, down upon down)
Baby, slice it right
(The boogie sound, down upon down)
We're gonna groove tonight
(The boogie sound, down upon down)

Let this groove get you to move
It's alright, alright, alright
Let this groove set in your shoes
So stand up, alright, alright

Gonna tell you what you can do with my love
Alright
Let you know, girl
You're looking good, you're out of sight
Alright
Just move yourself and glide like a 747
And lose yourself in the sky
Among the clouds in the heavens, gods

Let this groove light up your fuse
It's alright, alright, alright (Uh-oh-uh)
Let this groove set in your shoes
So stand up, alright, alright

Let me tell ya what you can do with my love
Alright
Gotta let you know, girl
You're looking good, you're out of sight
Alright
Just tell the DJ to play your favorite tune
Then you know it's okay
What you found is happening now

Let this groove light up your fuse
It's alright, alright, alright
Let this groove set in your shoes
So stand up (Stand up), alright, alright
Let this groove get you to move
It's alright, alright, alright (Yeah)
Let this groove set in your shoes
So stand up, alright, alright

You will find peace of mind on the floor
Take a little time
Come and see, you and me
Give a little sign
I'll be there, after a while
If you want my love
We can boogie on down
Down, boogie on down (The boogie sound, down upon down)
Down, boogie on down (The boogie sound, down upon down)
Down, we boogie on down (The boogie sound, down upon down)
On down (The boogie sound, down upon down)

Let's groove tonight (The boogie sound, down upon down)
Share the spice of life (The boogie sound, down upon down)
Baby, slice it right (The boogie sound, down upon down)
We're gonna groove tonight (The boogie sound, down upon down)
Uh-oh-uh

Let this groove light up your fuse
It's alright, alright, alright (Uh-oh-uh)
Let this groove set in your shoes
So stand up (Alright), alright, alright

Let this groove get you to move (We're gonna groove tonight)
It's alright, alright, alright (Share the spice of life)
Let this groove set in your shoes (Baby, slice it right)

Let this groove light up your fuse (Just move yourself)
It's alright, alright (Just move yourself)
