Such a motivating song! I never tire of hearing it! 🤩
One of the great dance tracks - full of happiness and joy, but I do feel that Luther’s version is the best.
Great song 🎶
Happy Birthday. Love your song.
Thanks for sharing.
Have the maxi singel.

Throwback to 1972 when 'Backstabbers' by the O'Jays took over the charts! 🕺 #1 on R&B, #3 on Pop, and the first PIR single to be certified gold. Who knew betrayal could sound so good? 😂✨

There’s a timeless quality to this song that doesn’t leave it fixed in any one particular era. When Angie Stone sampled it for “Wish I didn’t miss you” a new generation were able to appreciate the groove. One of the best O’Jays tracks and testament to how important the Philly sound was to soul music.
This tune helped change the landscape of R&B/Soul music.It cemented into stone that "The Soind of Philadelphia" was the here and now, a force to be reckoned with. When "If You Don't Know Me By Now" and "Me and Mrs. Jones" followed behind with similarly successful results it was cemented into stone. Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff w/Thom Bell...those dudes. Just killed it for YEARS.
