Did they really release this as a single. And if so, I can't believe it didn't go to number 1. I just love this song. But, it is extremely funky and soulful. Maybe most people prefer their softer side like Still and Three Times a Lady.
I wish The Commodores would have a reunion concert just to listen to them one more time. This music soothes the soul and brings back a flood of memories
@Monstroslocos Well said and my thoughts EXACTLY! Not only them though but EW&F,LTD,OJAYS and other artist like Peabo Bryson, Alexander O'Neal etc and many others of whom I just can't think of now but they were bad. EARTH, WIND & FIRE to me have those groups beat hands down though! I just LOVE them but that is by no means to say that the Commodores aren't in the runnin' because they're an excellent group as well.
@babypoes123 ...You should try the latest album by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings. They are a relatively new band with a great 60's sound. There are a lot of bands out there doing great music just like the Commodores...problem is, you don't hear them on the radio much and they don't get much press...too bad, though. Stay funky, ya'll!
@jarmainc I love what I've heard from Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings so far. Unfortunately, that's not been very much. I plan to remedy this in the future though.
beautiful tune! thx

I'm happy with the bootleg DVD I just had. This is surely one of the greatest songs they ever had, together with Brickhouse and Lady You Bring Me Up.

I agree...the only band around now is Mint CoOndition and they're older now...who will be next to stand up for REAL music?
