Haven't heard this since I was a child (around 8 or 9). I thought that I had dreamed this song. Youtube is off the chain...!!! Wow... Sounds like a great pick me up on a rainy day.... Very nice....
@MsVernita1 She hosts a radio show in the UK and has also moved into TV presenting. She still performs on the live circuit, but obviously the music she makes is a niche market in the UK.
If I'm not mistaken, wasn't relatively pretty young when she released this - around 19 or 20? I've always held a soft spot for this song, but I'm going to guess this was the UK version of the video whereas the 'beach' version was US released. I used to have the 'beach' version, but alas I have no idea of where it is. Perhaps we'll see it here again, but in the meantime I'll enjoy this gem.
It's sad but IMHO this was one of the last good songs of the '80s. It all went down from there. The '90s were really pathetic and the new millennium's even worse. Let's face it; pop music will never bounce back up to this level.
isnt there another video for this song....she starts out on a beach.......i dont remember this one......i'm a mica paris fan and there's another video for this same song!
@autismpete I here you. I was thirteen when this song was out. My brother was like seventeen and had her CD. I think I played it more than he did after school. He would always get mad at me for not putting the CD back in the case so it wouldn't sratch. I went between this one and Soul to Soul Keep on Movin. Man good memories....
Probably one of the world's most underrated singers EVER. This woman is up there with Diana Ross and Chaka.....she is such a lovely person too. This track knocked me out when I first heard it.....superb.....love you Mica!
This is one of my favourite soul songs of the 80's. The best of British music then. Mica Paris is a true soul legend. She's made made Britain proud. I hope this kind of music will be produced now.
This song is pure heaven. A great voice + great lyrics + great music= great song. Thanks Mica and thank you djtarzanboy. I had forgotten about this one.
I remember this, me and my friend angie, used to get ready to this in her room to go out to a club, we were the happiest girls in the world. I still love it.
Quality music. Meaningful lyrics with vocal ranges. Music isn't like this these days [2010]. This song appealed to a wide audience unlike music in this day and age. ''Music'' is now pigeon-holed to suit certain listeners. No wonder there's no new quality music anymore :-(
im not sure if average is the right word....shes got a great live voice,,,but i think she thought she was more of a star than she actually was...which is why after this song most people couldnt name another one.....she could of been bigger..same as Beverly Knight....most people couldnt name one song by her...but shes called Britains soul queen and stuff....put the graft in,make some world class songs,then enjoy the payback...dont believe the hype.. they sound great,but didnt step it up...shame
Haven't heard this for a long time.Remember driving home from a friends house back in the days with this song playing in my car.Still got her album.Thxs for this great upload.
I have loved Mica from the first album with "My One Temptation". Her problem is the US doesn't know good quality sometimes. Example, Will
Downing. For Mica, her career could have been great except that everybody (Al Jarreau [Feels So Good], Tamia [You Put a Move on My Heart]) covered what should have been her signature songs simultaneously while she was in the studio recording them. And because of their "pull," released before her original. This was like a shot in the gut and the career.
I love this song.
