This actually won her a Grammy, I suppose her last Grammy. It really sounds like elevator music, but I like it anyway. V. laid back.

Good Song. It's overplayed on Soft AC radio. XM and Sirius seemed to be awfully fond of it.

I like it. The second of many big hits she had for Arista.

This 'Deja Vu' is better than Beyonce's by far.

Unless this has been posted before, I apologize. This was penned by Isaac Hayes in which I thought was one of the best ones Dionne has ever did back in '79. It's a guilty pleasure to me that I love this song, but I've no idea as why. I remember reading through the credits of her album that Barry Mannilow did some piano work on some of Dionne's recordings. Lovely in a sense of it.

Good tune. I have it on '45. One of her best.

I like it too. Was this on her late-70s album that Barry Manilow produced? I bought it... listened to it once... and haven't see it since. It also had I'll Never Love This Way Again on it.

Deja Vu reached #15 in 1980 and is one of my two favorite tunes from Ms. Warwick(e) the other was "Then Came You"

Oh hell no! I love B but this one is a true classic pinned by Mr. Isaac Hayes.

I like it. My favorite 70's single by her. Written by Isaac Hayes and produced by Barry Manilow. I think this would have been even better without Manilow's gloss (although probably not the #1 AC hit it was). Isaac Hayes is all over this.
