Rooted in its “clan” values and its deep appreciation for hip hop, On And On has built itself looking up to iconic record labels such as Rawkus and Stones Throw. The first couple of On And On releases pay a tribute to these legendary labels. For instance, 20syl’s maxi Malade, a jazz/funk infused track, is emblematic of the crew’s fascination for classic Hip Hop. So is the Flying Saucer breakbeat produced by he collective Coups2Cross (who will later become C2C) that came out soon after on On And On.
Right from the start, On And On Records stands out for its authenticity and its innovative take on the music business. Hocus Pocus’ second LP 73 Touches is released by On And On in 2005 which brings a considerable amount of attention to the refreshing label. Soon catching up with the hype and without compromising its sharp and exclusive edge, the label releases Place 54, Hocus Pocus’ fourth album, in 2006. Rewarded by a Gold Record, the opus fast tracks the label out of the independent scene. From that point, On And On keeps asserting itself as a key player on the contemporary music scene, until reaching colossal success with C2C’s first full-length record Tetra, crediting the crew with four French Grammys and a double Platinium Record.
On And On has remained grounded and true to itself despite the huge amount of exposure gotten since 2006. Now fully operational without having to compromise, the label works on both major releases and artists’ development. Recent releases like Ledeunff and 20syl’s EPs, embody On And On’s ability to build an audience for singular and eclectic artists.

Songs of the 70s were feel good songs that made you feel sweet.

“When the first time is the last time
Can make you feel so bad
But if you know it, show it
Hold on tight
Don't let her say goodnight
Got the sun on my shoulders
And my toes in the sand
Woman's left me for the some other man
Aw, but I don't care
I'll just dream and stay tan
Toss up my heart and see where it lands“

"Poor old Jimmy saw his woman kiss another man. Takes a ladder and steals the stars from the sky. Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry."

These lyrics are absolutely a pleasure to behold. Not often do you run into songwriting that takes one's imagination like a paintbrush and lays out images of such beauty in the listener's mind. Thank you Stephen Bishop.

Growing up I was the kid who had no friends and was always picked on. Music is all i really had growing up. This song and a few others of the same time frame always remind me of childhood. I was the nerd at school dances.. standing in the corner. Wanting to ask a girl to dance, but feeling like a part of me had died every time the girl said no and then she'd look at her friends and laugh. So I would go off to the side of the dance floor and listen to every word in each song played. Trying to imagine the girl in a song would be the one to fall in love with me. Fast forward 40 years. It still hasn't happened. So hard to meet people anymore. Its hard not to feel like the same loser from middle school that nobody wanted to hang out with. If you're reading this, I hope things work out for you in this life. It goes by too fast. Enjoy every minute while you still can. I wish you all the best.

This has always been one of my favorite songs.
The middle lyrics alway get to me: "Puts on Sinatra and he starts to cry. On and on. He just keeps on trying. And he smiles when he feels like crying."

I loved this song since I heard it in the late 70's but I never knew it was Stephen Bishop who also song my all time favorite "It might be you".
