Hearing this song reminds me of some past trips to Ohio.
Perhaps its because some radio station near Akron and Canton had a Saturday night dance music programming block back in 2003. Boy were those the days. New Jack Swing is just the greatest!
Obviously this is an artificial percusiion SAW mix, but I think it's charming in another way and true to the original. I also love Sybil's kind voice!
We should say this to our partners & if they get it - the they are lovers, not skanks!
Wow, this is bringing me back to 1989-1990-the best time to be a teenager-I can feel the Massachusetts summers right now..sitting in the hot sand with our little boom box blasting the best music from that little radio station down at the Cape..
this was oneof the songs along with back 2 life and keep moving from soul 2 soul these jams were hits i remember listening 2 them while driving 2 work in ny. miss those days
This song takes me back to the time when my 21 yr. old was a baby and i used to ride with him in my Ford Escort listening to this song and singing. He used to smile when i sang this song, God i miss those days!
Wow I have always love tis song . Its a remake of Dionne Warwrick 60's version. I remember 98.7Kiss fm and WBLS both NYC radio stations blasting this song in heavy rotations. I rember sugggeting to my roommate at the time to listen to this song and it totally changed the relationship he had with his girlfriend. Dont try to make her over man.
Boring and repetitive and like most remakes (songs, movies) not as moving or soulful as the early 60's original (her first!) by the then slim and classy Miss Dionne Warwick-this sounds so studio manufactured and with too heavy a drumbeat-go listen to the original and you may cry when you hear and see Dionne whereas this makes me yawn.
I love this song. The 80's had some great music. This is just one of those songs that will never get old I love hearing this on the old school station. I'm not sure exactly when the song came out but I think I heard this for the first time in 1990 I was 7 years old then.
This is the sound/beat version thats better. I love it! People use to argue as to who made this sound/beat prominent at that time, Sybil or Soul 2 Soul(Back 2 Life). They both came out in 1989, so no one really knew then. Does any one...REALLY know? I love both songs.
I loved this song as a child but as an adult it means so much more. Accept me for what I am. Yes we need more of this!!! Too many woman today are altering themselves to please others. If we can't love ourselves for who we are no one else will
I used to go to the Zoo in mannheim! I lived in Stuttgart! All of this Stuff takes me back! Best 5 yrs of my life! I still go back to Germany to this day, but it isn't the same!
I'm sick of fucktards telling us that there "only xxx years old and I think this song is great yo! OMG!"
Of course you think it's great. It's OUR music. It was here before you're dad was fantasizing about your mom. Thanks for validating the music that was here before you, kid.
Don don don don't make. Don don don don't make. Don don don don't make. Don don don don't make. (cue the conga) Don't make me oVAaa now that you know how I adore Uuuu.....Classic
I didn't know at the time this song was a hit that it was a remake of Dionne Warwick's hit song... The song has the power to be great no matter who does what with it.
I never got a hold of this 12" back in tha day..Still wondering why since it was a good remake of Dionne's oldie..I do have Sybil's follow up on 12" "Walk On By"...Thanks for putting this up!
oh i really really LOVE this song...i never knew who sang it but now i do Thank god for you tube! her other song walk on by is nice too...yeah it does bring back childhood memories..miss those dayz
I heard the original song when Dionne Warwick first recorded it. Burt Bacharach and Hal David wrote it specifically for Dionne. I love this New Jack version from 1989.
this is one of my favorite songs since the early nighties...absolute classic. in fact the first time i heard DJays scratching on the radio was to this song right here...
Man, I'm a club Dj, and this beat and tempo is one the 1! I'm gonna get this n when I do another old school show. Has that Soul II Soul beat. I 'm most def gonna go hard when i mix this up!
This was actually the FIRST version of this song I ever heard. Long before I heard any other version. *Weird* but this has become the archetype for this song in my mind.
ahhh ths s better than stll picture like others do if they dont have the vid.. :d hehehe good job!!! and excellent music dude... !!!! my hats of for you here.. :)
I wished I kept that issue of Billboard from July '89 that reviewed this song: "(a funky treatment of Dionne Warwick's 60s chestnut) ...with smash written all over it. Top 40 and even A/C are in the cards" Alas, this didn't even make the A/C chart.
Great funky jam that always reminds me of Soul II Soul's brand of hip-hop in the late 80s.
aww man, i remember these days. this is when music was music. i remember when this song first came out and mtv was the only music channel. aahh the memories!
Janet Jackson's voice is perfect for this; she should include it in one of her sets on her next tour :)
