Where would Will Smith's recording career be today, if Patrice Rushen hadn't released this classic tune back in 1982? I have always thought this tune was incredible -- from the vocals, to the saxaphone solo, to the danceable beat... WOW!
Oddly enough, I hated the song "Men In Black"... Go figure!

This song is a jam! Patrice has a bunch of great songs. I love "Feels So Real" and "Remind Me" too.

One of the last "disco" songs to get attention on pop radio.
It was a really good smooth, danceable song. Will Smith's "Men in Black" was enhanced by the "Forget Me Nots" sample.

One of the all-time best 80s R&B/dance/post-disco songs as well as her best song overall. Still a favorite of mine to this day. Always heard this as an old school cut on WGCI, V103, defunct 103.5 Jammin' Oldies and I think B96 played it too when I was younger. I'm also aware of Will Smith sampling this song in his 1997 hit "Men In Black", which I considered to be his best "Big Willy Style"-era song. album version www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zHn-A8C64812 inch version www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDxmk6k8lh4 |
