I've heard this before. I kinda like it. Better than most of his Sunshine Band stuff.

The duet reached #2 on the Hot 100 in early 1980 and Teri never had another top 40 hit on her own or in a duet.

I cannot find a video for this on YouTube.

I much, much prefer the original by Barbara Mason. She was also the writer of the song. It peaked at #2 R&B and #5 on the Hot 100 in 1965.

Don't much like any version of this song

[unicorns]

Horrible.

I love this song. I played it quite a bit earlier this year when I asked out a woman for the first time in many years.

This is probably the cheesiest song that I love.   This or "Just When I Needed You Most" the classic 1979 song from Randy VanWarmer.   Pure cheesy delight
