#2/Pop; top10 R&B
How come we never hear any more of Robbie Nevil? He only scored two strong hits and the other two are stiffs. But this song has that soulful influence in a way. If you have the remix of the song, it's better but somehow decent.

I never liked this song. Didn't he hit the top 40 in the 90's with something (i forgot the name of the song)

In 1991 he had a minor hit with "Just Like You"...
Used to love "C'est La Vie", but kinda got sick of it due to overplay. Still love "Wot's It To Ya" though.

Started out liking it, but soon got tired of it due to overplay. Didn't care for "Wot's It to Ya", but I think I might have liked another of his songs. Maybe it was "Dominoes".

IIRC, I think the song was just called "Domino". "C'est La Vie" was cool. I'm due for a listen right about now.

I've heard "C'est La Vie" all of maybe twice, but I wanted to chime in and say that "Just Like You" is one of my favorite "forgotten" minor pop hits.

I love it, but I get the feeling I'm gonna overplay it since I've discovered it in recent months. It reminds of Nu Shooz, that kind of (forgive me for the term) "80's white R&B" groove...

The remix of the song, which I own is off the chain! It makes me wanna...you guessed it. Ghett Down! But I like the "Dominoes" remix 10x better. As a matter of fact I like "Dominoes" better overall!

Love it. So catchy and fun. It's actually a cover of a song by Beau Williams that was released a couple years earlier.

The 12" version is crazy good (and was featured in almost its entirety in an episode of Moonlighting!). I play it in some of my 80's sets. It's a classic.
Robbie still writes for other artists. He's around.

The 12" version is crazy good. Yes, it's such ear candy.

"Black Mirror" reminded me of this song's existence and I am so thankful for that. What a jam this was.
