Um, this was tha JAM! Just an all-around R&B classic. The instrumental track alone is enough to make this a favorite. But when you throw in Bobby's vocal performance, this song becomes too good to handle.
Gotta dig this out and jam right now. 1979

An R&B classic indeed. Go West did a nice remake, but it doesn't compare to the original.

I'm gettin' my life to this song right now. It's smooth and a jam. Every part is a hook. Ugh, it's just so damn good!

One of the best 70s R&B/soul songs and all-time best "Blue Eyed Soul" songs. 2pac replayed the song's chorus in his posthumous 1997 hit "Do 4 Love". Many songs have sampled the main hook of this song, such as Tantaya Ali's 1998 track "Boy You Knock Me Out." When I was younger, I heard the original Bobby Caldwell song on V103 and defunct WNUA 95.9 Smooth Jazz on the radio.
