At my wedding last weekend, my uncle was shirtless within seconds of this song being played. He’s a 300+ lb man. God bless this amazing song.

RIP the two members of The Isley Brothers
Rudolph Isley (April 1, 1939 – October 11, 2023), aged 84
O'Kelly Isley Jr. (December 25, 1937 – March 31, 1986), aged 48
You both will be remembered as legends.

I was born in 85, this shit still bumps! My Mexican family doesn’t understand a word The Isley’s are saying but god damn do they jump and shout to this masterpiece.

If you're listening to this song and your feet are not moving, there is something wrong with you !

Just added this to my sister's wedding playlist. Rest assured, it shall be played at the wedding.

Fun Fact...Barry Gordy locked them in a room and wouldn't let them off Motown label with this song..he said he was sure someone on his roster wrote this song....hours later....they were off Motown and Shout was in their hands as their own...Master recordings and all... unheard of...but it was their song!!

Every DJ worth their salt knows that this is the ultimate wedding song. Watch the floor fill up with every generation, every age. Amazed every time it happens.

Strange Fact: This song didn't even make the Top 40 in 1959
"Animal House" showed a new generation of listeners how great and underrated it was.

One of the most energetic songs of all time.

I hear R&B, early rock, gospel, and even some slight *bluegrass* tones, and I love it.

[RZAJW]

This is probably in my top 3 best songs of all time, this song is just full of energy, groove and soul. There is no other song that makes me feel the way this one does, i fucking love it.

I went to a wedding and this wasnt played. I took back my gift.

[vegan]

My kids aare staring at me gobsmacked. They've never seen me dance like this. This tune just took over me...like POSSESSED!

[DylanGirl]

THE definitive R&B/rock & roll song. 1959.

If this song isn't played at a wedding is it really a wedding ?

[gigiclink]

One of the best songs ever recorded....

[raqueldizon]

I always turn up the volume when this song is playing.

[samurailevi]

I’m 24 and I absolutely love this song. The people in my gen who say older songs suck clearly have no taste.

[jamieherberger]

As a born and bred Buffalonian, I can say that I’ve known this song since birth. We love those oldies, not to mention the BILLS SHOUT SONG! I SERIOUSLY have NEVER been to a western NY wedding where this song HAS NOT been played! Bills make me want to shout!

[ramonmunoz]

I've loved this song for years, I'm currently 28 but it's still a timeless upbeat song!

Cannot believe this only reached No.47 on the Billboard back in '59. It would have blown listeners minds 63 years ago. Clearly years ahead of it's time, especially since re-releases and covers peaked highly.
