From 1982, this song only reached #37 Black Singles, but it's quickly becoming one of my favorite songs ever. It's really soul/gospel, but it has one of the most irresistible bass lines I've ever heard, as well as some killer melodies, and Alicia Meyers' vocals are flawless. I can put this song on repeat over and over and it doesn't get old (and I have-- 42 times in the last month).

This is hilarious because I just listened to this about ten minutes ago. Amazing amazing song. I love it. My favorite Alicia Myers song. I don't have a single complaint about this song. I even had to get my hands on the 12" extended remix just so that it didn't have to end so soon.

I wonder where this former ONE WAY vocalist is these days? She was a great singer. This is a good song. My favorite by her is "If You Play Your Cards Right", which is incredible.

I do not like it at all. I think that the lyrics are mindless for so many reasons.

I often heard this one as and old school cut on WGCI, V103, and defunct 103.5 Jammin' Oldies when I was younger. Her best song.
