This was a great pop record that fell out quite rapidly. I'm not a fan of his however, this song off the hook! I heard it today (because I was looking for it out of the blue) for the first time in almost 20 years!

I misunderstood the lyrics and thought Paul was going perv on us. I thought he was saying, "Tell me to press, right there, at your chest". It wasn't until the song had long since fallen off the chart that I found the lyrics to it in a book called "Song Hits" and found out that wasn't really what he was saying (it was actually "...right there, that's it, yes".)

I liked the song a lot, I remember- the thing is, it had great music but the lyrics weren't that good, the public had had enough of Paul's stupid lyrics at this point and this was his big decline point- after the "press to play" album, he never really got it back together and the big million sellers in the US were long gone- though I think he had a few good songs - "Put it There," "Calico Skies"- no more hit singles.

I was so disappointed, when he came to Oklahoma City on his last tour, I thought for sure that he would play it!!! :'(
