For those who grew up in Grant Projects on 125th St, & Amsterdam Ave in New York City, we were hanging out at Grants Tomb, Riverside Park, & Stone Gym and we were blasting our "tape recorders" and I simply got down and party my ass off and y today enjoy it's memories with all this fine music. You will never hear good music like this, this music is love, feelings coming from the heart, Music from this era was all true, Ain't no half stepping here.SIMPLY OUTSTANDING RIGHT ON!
I am not sure, but I was told by someone that Prince wrote it. Again not positive on this. If anyone know who wrote it and sang it first, please share.
it was Prince, but i guess since meli'sa did such a good job, a lot of ppl aren't sure, plus i think her version is a bit more radio friendly lol... I've heard her version on the radio more often than Prince... probably because of obvious reasons.
Prince wrote & recorded it..in the early 80's..this is a great cover..it was said that he recorded this song in the studio(I guess Paisley Park) dimly lit with candles....
@deere772d ...This is actually Prince original song she did the remake of his song which mean Prince get paid for her singing it...When ever you use the original artist music they cash in........
@deere772d PRINCE wrote and sang it for his Controversy album in '81 or '82 (i forget when it was released). But his version has a faster tempo and piano. Plus the way he sang it was really sexual with moans, grunts, and yells at the end. I don't remember it getting any radio play when I was younger. But then this version came out in like '85 or '86 and it was more soulful like a ballad so it got a lot of radio play and people kind of forgot that it was Prince's song. YouTube his version.
This is one of the very few (if not only) remakes that I feel totally shits on the original. Prince's version is o.k., but this version is flawless, raw, and untouchable. No one can sing this song like Meli'sa, not even the creator.

Sounds a lot like Prince's version, I suppose it depends on whether you prefer his or her voice. I'm not keen on women singers in general so.
