[Striplights1980]

@bethany2781 Me too! It is playing in the scene where they go to the Blanchard's pool party.

[TeresaKG100]

[leehalloran]

this 1 got that warm feeling!!!!! :-)

[theeuprise]

my childhood!!!!!!!!!!! old school. this was when i used to record songs of the radio

[egnod]

Back in the early 90's HBO did a documentary on the making of the SI swimsuit issue. This song was part of the back ground during the photoshoots with the classic beauties like Kathy Ireland, and Paulina Porizkova. You know, women who didn't have to be skin and bone, who were MORE than a pair of implants. They could have been your neighbors, (if damn lucky). Such stunning women may never be seen again I fear....

[martaajoku1]

:)

I love this song...

and for some reason in this video he looks

kinda like maxwell in the luxury:Cococure video

or is it just me..lol anyway nice lyrics

[SandyRocky69]

Sensual,Erotic and passionate about life. This song is addictionate!!!. I am a little bit envious on teens of 1990s cauz they had such great passionate songs.

[erikiux100]

[KKP20111]

I LOVE this soooong!!! :)



[LASVEGASGHETTO]

[aftershock71]

Why oh why can't we have music like this in 2011?? Most music these days is not even singing....but whining, yelling, and sounding like a dying cow.

[OSKRTORRES]

Love this song...brings me back memories...20 pounds less, more hair, no mortgage...what a beautifull times...

respect from Puerto Rico!

[bigGaza1]

She had and attitude I cant explain, Never know if your in frame, Tying me up with elastic words, Im on the countdown till I get hurt... Man them some lyrics.

[bigGaza1]

Perfect song, Always loved it but has more relevance now 4 me.

[neuroplastixxx]

It still takes me to another world. No matter how many times I listen to it.

Wishing to go back to these better times.

[kajus44]

Nie mogłeś zrobić tak, żeby tekst pokazywał się sekundę przed śpiewem? Jesteś zajebistym mistrzem synchronizacji, tylko, że tak się wyrażę: "na chuuuuuj mię to" jak nie mogę zaśpiewać każdego pierwszego słowa w wersie?

[092485Andyvixen]

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG



[afroblack1000]

Pure Soul, f....k Lil Wayne and Lady GaGa

[felicidad939]

[SUZUKITENPEI]

初めてレゲエってすげーとおもった曲だ。

リズムと声の迫力がハンパない！

[thexenomancer]

@SUZUKITENPEI I agree. It is difficult to find this type of talent, nowadays.

[jeremygeorgemusic]

Your best one yet, I like this very much.

[ppppdmt]

fantasic song. This is definately one of my favourite song and my mum loves it too.

[kybalion97]

greate music

[leeloo1967]

He's sooooooo sexy!!!

[BrownBear725]

I randomly heard this an hour ago and got around to looking it up. love this song. I keep waiting to hear this re-done by a modern rap, hiphop, or R&B artist. It would be dynamite in the same way "You" was for li'l wayne, and "Get it shawty" was for lloyd.

The other song I keep waiting for is a song by the artist Dale, "Soulful moaning".

If you agree, give this post a thumbs up to keep it on top so an artist, label ceo, or producer will see it and DO IT! Who wants to make some money!?!

[truepureblue]

@BrownBear725 I kinda agree with you on it being done by an r&b artist...but I can't see it being done by a rapper. The only r&b singer that I can see redoing this song would be Maxwell...maybe even Jamie Foxx.

The only way a rapper would be in the song is if they were trying to put a little twist in the middle of the song...Jay-Z, Lupe Fiesco, or Drake. but the rapper would only have a small part in the song.

[BrownBear725]

@truepureblue

I agree with you on this, would prefer an r&b person over a rapper. but i realize bigger sales and wider recognition results from collaborations.

[NewWorldRob]

I always thought this was a woman for some reason.

he sounded way better in the '80s ! Theres no comparison, and he wasnt far removed from '80s here...totally diff sound to his voice tho.

[truepureblue]

@NewWorldRob I always thought it was sung by a white dude. lol

[BrownBear725]

@truepureblue

I used to think it was sung by a white lady...once upon a time.

[BigSly83]

WOW...I think iam in real love...once more in my life...second time

[westamulla]

Lasers oh yeah

[ashutosh3]

thats a singer

[agiedee]

ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh­

[skoobi25]

Maxie babeh ! love u this tune neva gets old...

[smalltugz]

daaam he can sing... nobody today has such a beautiful voice no homo

[LoveforGia]

Bonafide - top album........... my favourite when i was about 11 or 12... hahahaha

[LisetteCanWrite]

Aww.. wow.. what a backflash it's been forever since I heard this play.. love this song!

[HappyTrash1]

Tune !!! Just have to dance when I hear this...:)

[MegaJohnnymartin]

listen to the shit they call music today really makes ya appreciate old skool music yeah when music was music!!.

[1311107]

Just takes you to another world!!!

[MJUSAYIN]

Such was music....once long ago, in a world with no naked Britneys and freak fake mavericks like Lady Gaga.

[GialloHorror]

@MJUSAYIN Well said, my friend. Music today, isn't even musci. It's fabricated, carbon copied, shallow, garbage.

Music is supposed to have soul, and feeling. Today's music has soul. It has no meaning. It's an empty shell of what it used to be. I'm hopeful, someday, we'll get to hear real music again. Until then, we have youtube to relive the good old days

[tootsiegirl93]

love this song

[samawatif]

Maan!!!! Back in da day...

[tickledbiscuit]

It has been 20 years since the last time I heard this..!! The song that you kept close to your heart..!!!

[bfrost77]

love this shit...

[MissTerri1979]

I don't get goose bumps, I just "like" it.

[kepr1]

caught that weird limbo no mans land while transitioning between the 80s and 90s

[TunedPortZ28]

@kepr1 speak for yourself, this song is still the shit!

[danNYx86]

I've goose pimples when i listen it

[boru25]

The music in this song kinda sounds like the music from 'Streets of Rage' on the Mega Drive. Especially at 2:40.

Why are there 2 videos to this song?

[TimberoMayor88]

omg i was a kid but exelent song great memories

[lovelyxnoir]

Love the 90's! .. remember my mom always played this at home ♥

[azores5]

this is not reggae, this is pure SOUL, change the description !!!

[BEJCHS]

@azores5 why has he got to change description does it matter to you that much? what are you the youtube police? get a life sad act!

[magnatepetrolero]

muy bueno

[njtonraglan]

Another song that takes me back to the good old days! Luv u Maxi

[Godzillaloc]

[jezzabelle75]

I remember going clubbing while only 18 ( legal age back then was 21 LOL ) and mellowing out to this...mean

[STARSAPPHIRE91]

Legal age is STILL 21, don't know where you've been! If a walked my 18 yr old ass into a club, i would get tossed right the fuck out when asked for my I.D. Unless, of course, i was screwing the club manager or something! LOL!

[dl30wpb]

Hey they used to play this in Tijuana and any age is legal down there lmao

[hork111]

He's got a fine voice, distinctive, full of charisma and charm and spice without being overpowering. I'm surpised he wasn't a bigger star.

[7bikerboy7]

im 36 and this brings back memories of my first girlfriend

[ChaseTheSun69]

childhood memories......

[babycat967]

@ChaseTheSun69 did u make up corny dances like me my one michael j one landed me in hospital lol

[ruantengyi]

I am from Australia and this song went to number 2 in 1990. It was so close that it would have been number 1!

[Aardcore]

Just at 2:45 is where the song always hits it off-- it only lasts for five seconds but DAMN what a small piece of heaven it is! That riff alone is class.

[MEAMERIE]

so its 2 versions of this music video...this 1 is better

[smallvilleluver80]

i like this song alot good song

[dongmaa]

this is what it's all about! my childhood song... another one to miss from the past. simple music, lyrics - nothing fancy, but a classic
