Oh God, no, with all due respect to both of your fine musical tastes, I think I would easily give it to "Exposed To Love" even more than "PONR." At least for me, the original version of this song was even more of a freestyle classic than their first song, and I think that's because "Exposed..." didn't really see the crossover impact that "Point..." did.
"Let Me Be The One" was a good S.O.S. Band ripoff too.
FWIW, I saw them open for Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam at Radio City Music Hall in 1988 or 87, and they were cool live. But it was with the new vocalist. For Lisa Lisa, there was a cage dangling from the stage with a tiger in it, and they threw a cape on it, and took the cape away and PRESTO!! Lisa Lisa was in the cage writhing around! Cool show! 2 great bands for the price of 1 and my date was a little guidette cutie! The good ole days... somebody shoot me...

My favorite Expose song was "What You Don't Know." Expose was a great 80-90's girl group, I still remember them quite well especially the times when Casey Kasem use to countdown many of their hits.
I still hear many of their songs on my local Rhythmic/dance station called, " The Beat of New York" WKTU. They play alot of freestyle jams and 80's stuff like Expose, Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam, Taylor Dayne, etc. I overlooked WKTU before, but now I appreciate what they stand for, playing those great older pop-Rhythmic acts like Expose.

My favorites by them (as with many artists) are the ones that seemed to get the least recognition.
My favorite of their upbeat songs is "Tell Me Why" and my favorite song overall is "Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue".

"I'll Never Get Over You Getting Over Me" by a landslide. I love most of their songs that I have heard but this is by far the one that hits me the most

"Seasons Change" is my favorite Expose song. I loved the fact that they could sing but had light voices which pulled off their material wonderfully.

I love so many Expose songs that it's hard to pick out my favorite. My three favorites, listed in order of when they were released are:
Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue (Spring, 1990)
I'll Never Get Over You Getting Over Me (Spring, 1993)
I'll Say Goodbye For The Two Of Us (early 1996)
Note: The fact that Expose's three songs with long titles are my favorites is strictly coincidence!

"Point Of No Return" and "Come Go With Me" by far.
I remember back in late '87/early '88, Kiss 105 in Gainesville would often play a long club medley of "PONR", "CGWM", and "Exposed To Love". That was the jam.

"Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue." I believe it peaked at #10. I had the pleasure of meeting Diane Warren last year and brought up this song. She was very impressed that I knew that she wrote it.  |

My favorite upbeat song by Expose would definitely be "Point Of No Return". Another thing I just remembered... when this song was popular, Kiss 105 always played the original version (the one with different singers). I hated that version, so it wasn't until they started playing the medley I mentioned that I really began to like "PONR". Also, for some weird reason that's the version that AT40 played on their All American Fourth of July special in 1991. |

Was the version they played on that 1991 special different than the one usually played on radio? Yeah... the version played on the special was the original recording that hit the Dance chart in 1985. When the time came to make Exposé's first album, they brought in all new singers (the classic lineup of Ann, Jeanette and Gioia) to re-record "PONR" (using the same instrumental track). That's the version that became their pop followup to "CGWM" in 1987, and (IMO) Jeanette's lead vocals are infinitely better than the first ones. Anyway, it was just bizarre that when AT40 was doing the special show in '91 that they played the original version featuring completely different singers. |

I love Expose!
01. Let Me Be The One
02. Seasons Change
03. Point Of No Return
04. What You Don't Know
05. Exposed To Love
06. I Wish The Phone Would Ring
07. Come Go With Me
08. Specialize In Love
09. Tell Me Why
10. When I Looked At Him
Needless to say, I'm not nearly as much a fan of their adult contemporary ballads as their dance hits.

They had so many good songs.
I hung out with singer Gioia a few times at gay clubs she performed at. Her site webmaster had arranged a place for the fans to meet up. She is so cool.
It's too bad her solo album on Koch last year did not get attention.
My faves:
"Come go with me" (Jeanette on lead vocal)
"Let me be the one"(Gioia on lead vocal)

It was another one of my personal faves from the CD. Not sure if it was released to Pop radio, though (and if it was, it didn't do anything, I don't think), but it was a Top Ten A/C hit in the spring of 1994. |

I'll Never Get Over You (Getting Over Me) is a classic. My favorite though is "In Walked Love." The lyrics really move me....same with "Your Baby Never Looked Good in Blue." That song will hopefully become a country hit one day!!
