Man, you are soooooo right on point about this song's history. Spent many, many days listening over and over again. Had the tape so it didn't last long. LOL! Just ordered the cd on eBay and can't wait to hear it for myself again. Not much airplay, but a DEFINITE CLASSIC!!! Thanks for the memories...
I wore this out,but at the time it was never released on CD,I still don't think it is.I played the hell of the cassette tape,it was the B side of the original.However I got hooked after hearing the Tear Drop version. I have never heard THIS version,thank you sooo much for posting this..
You clowns on here kill me with acting like the OG version isn't DOPE AS HELL too, only mediocre at best. The only reason why you even know about these other versions is because of the OG so you must have really liked the song from the start. Besides if the OG wasn't all that then it wouldn't have been a bonafide hit & the classic that it became so stop frontin' just because this is a rare hard to find non lp version!!!
Aaah man -- MY FAVORITE! I wore this maxi-single OUT back in the day! Stokely was truly in a class of his own with this record. Love it -- thanks for posting.
Can I ask where did you get this version. I have been trying to buy this song for long it's not even funny. And yes, this version is the best version of all the others.
@fyredragon5270 After looking for it for years, I saw someone on a website called musicstack (dot) (com) selling a maxi single. It didn't have a track list but the description said it had 5 songs on it. I figured that had to be the one so I just took a chance and bought it. I'm so happy I did.
@fyredragon5270: I'm right there with you on that. This was the version that I use to hear on the radio when the song was out. Imagine my extreme disappointment when I purchased the "Meant to be Mint" cd and this was NOT the version on it. Still a little bitter about that to this day.
Best version ever! I never saw the point of the other version; only that it was bassier. But this one is smoother and tender-er. Some reason Stokely and the rest of the band is hidin' this one in the vault. If they were smart, they'd put this as an album-only cut on their new album and watch that thing go platinum.
you have brought happiness back to a pitiful sad life...this song is all i have to remember of my first love and i want to personally thankyou from the bottom of my heart
