I'm 14 years old and i like to think i'm a old man at heart. My utterly amazing mum has brought me up on so much good music as such northern soul music and it never fails to put a smile on my face. I would in a heartbeat rather listen to this amazing music than whats on now. Remember to always KEEP THE FAITH!

...the greatest time of my life....I’m 73 now, still love this music, and has me up dancing. Thanks ! 🤪

In the early 70s, my dad ran a pub in the Midlands, these tunes were my lullabies, coming up from the bar downstairs... KTF.

These Artists never sold there souls.

Sitting in bed clapping at the appropriate places and my feet moving like I’m on the dancefloor, singing my head off. Northern does it every time. Keep the faith

Northern soul will never die keep the faith x

Don't care who likes what better, wish all would stop arguing about this and that concerning NORTHERN SOUL. My daughter is battling cancer and this music is all that's keeping able to deal with it . Never stop dancing and KEEP THE FAITH !!!!!!

Still listening in January 2020 a week before our 36th wedding anniversary ! Oh my god it takes me back to those wonderful days waiting for the night to come so we could get on the dancefloor after work. No matter how tired you were, always up for the next tune ! God I miss it all 😭💗

What an era! Great music, dancing and memories of simpler times. Loved dancing to Northern soul in the mid 1970s. 62 years young and still loving the music! Keep the faith.

How lucky are we that we know about this music. Ktf

I was North London soul boy and have some distant memories of listening to some Northern soul records.I have recently rediscovered the music and am so so hooked.Wonderful stuff!

Hi, I'm 59 years young, back in the 70's I was in the middle of the Lancashire Northern Soul seen, Blackpool Mecca, Lemon Tree, Wigan Casio and more. Now living in LA when I hear the music today it takes me back to the all nighter's Keep the Faith Rob

Eat, sleep, breath soul music I'm 60, loved it since 14 always till I die, been the core of my being thank you soulx

I am a life-long American fan of Soul/Motown music and I've had never heard any of these gems until two days ago. How did all of these songs become iconic in the UK without making a blip on the radar in the U.S.? Also, I had no idea so many labels in the U.S. other than Motown, Stax, and Atlantic released this genre of music.

I am now y7 years old and have been full of soul even today when I listen to soul my feet will not stay still takes me back to Wigan and Blackpool when I was in my early twenties but that's all I can move these days from my electric chair maybe old and disabled but my mind and feet will never forget those great places and great sounds of soul

My sister met her husband at the twisted wheel Manchester in the late sixties they are still together just coming up to 50 years married

Out on the floor is the epitome of Northern Soul . There are other great tracks but that was written for Northern soul dance floors . Timeless classic !

I am coming up to 85 and going regularly with two daughters, Northern Souling. Love watching the top dancers. I do my own thing and enjoy every minute 😊
