  • FORGIT ABOUT IT

  • Ah, those vocal harmonies - incredible. The cut-up vox on the intro was the nuts too!

  • Even to an old head like me, Teddy Riley was the shhh. Can't doubt this fact.

  • Growin up in NYC in the 90's and great music like this in regular rotation the good old days when no one knew Cash Money Records or Maybach Music!!! All thats played on current radio smh

  • My sister went over to Canada and came back with this in about 1988 I think. Took me unitl the late 90's to prise it away by which time she ahd emigrated to the USA anyway. Remember the 1st time I played this at a party in London. How many people rushed the decks to try and grab it I dont know! Did people really go out and dance ALL night?!? Hell yeah.......

  • KISS and WBLS-NYC played this more than the LP original. lol

  • This is a player ass song from my adolescence. Used to dedcate this to a redbone named angie!

  • they came out swinging and had plenty of hits very underrated but i think big bub planted a seed for the big guys him and heavy d.

  • Big Bub!! where da fuc you at son ! these cats had flava

  • these brothas where real underrated. they had some nice jams..

  • I love this song! My fav part is the hamonizing at the end starting at 7:36....so smooth, such memories....

    jl

  • OMG!! This song was the business back in the day!!! So much good R&B back then!!

  • Sooooooooooo Carrie Lucas' 1982 R&B hit "Show Me Where You're Coming From" HAD to have been connected to this song, as it's the SAME DAMN HOOK! To the tee

  • Nothin like a good 12 inches- I always Love 12 in versions of the GOOD SHIT

  • "Produced by Gene Griffin." Gene Griffin didn't produce Jack. Teddy produced all these songs and got robbed by Gene Griffin, his manager.

  • @monogee

    Good to know!

  • @monogee Gene signed Guy to a "Five Heartbeat" contracts.....all the money flowed through him......he was getting paid as a manger, so called producer and group member.....

  • Love this song, this album got me through those first rough months away from home stationed in Europe.

  • Yep Yep! 

  • The song is so great. I just can't seem to get enough of it. I used to have this 12inch version untill it got stolen. I miss those type extended version. Nowadays I only hear extended version in house music. I hope that will change some day.

  • Classic! I'm gonna sing this song to my baby!

  • Comment removed

  • Yes indeed,this was my shit in 9th Grade!

  • Did they have a video for this? Big Bub and today were tight.

  • wrecks n effects, guy, bobby brown, swv, xscape, today, Keith Sweat will make all these new top 40 so called artists sound like sesame street. New jack swing era was so hard. please have a reunion tour soooon.

  • Whhooooooo!!!

  • Harmony, music with layers and changes! Sorry but these mainstream new producers/artists really need to step it up. I know this is said quite often but I didn't really appreciate the good music that we had in the 80's and 90's. I thought it was a right. Obviously today's mainstream proves that it's not. What a shame...

  • @Palmpat I understand what you mean. This was and will always be great music. The problem is not so much the producers of now. They can make this if they want to. It's the (young) people that so used to hearing one groove. In order to make music interesting for them producers have to make what you are hearing now on the radio. And yes, it is a shame.

  • My favorite Today song hands down,I remember seeing them Live,i belive they came to Tampa Florida in 1988 with Guy ,they were bad.I was a Jr in high school.

  • Another classic from the unforgettable 1989! Probably my most memorable year in music.

  • This song is the JAMMMMMMMM. Every time I play this song I am transported back to I so wish it would never end 80's. For all those that don't know you better ask somebody. LONG LIVE THE 80'S, THE GARAGE, THE LOFT, THE DOME, THE ELECTRI CIRCUS, BENTLEY'S, THE CHEETAH CLUB.Thanks so much for posting. I am in heaven.

  • Thank you for reveal the Carrie Lucas reference.

  • Touche !!!!

  • the 80's was the best decade ever!!!this song was the jam thanks for posting.

  • This was my jam,even though i was only 7 when it dropped i remebered this song use to play at my sista card game parties and everybody would get up and just dance for an intermission then they be right back playin cards again,it was cool

  • This brings me back to my clubhopping days back in 1988 in NYC. Savage, Justine's, 70 West, Silver Shadow, Level 10, Bentley's, Zanzibar in NJ just to name a few.....Teddy Riley was putting his foot all into the New Jack Swing sound when he produced this track for Today.

  • just remembering the days, when we use to sneak around on this one(lol)

  • Thanks a million for this post. Anyone know where I can find this CD. Holla at me. please another one from my E-Club days at MCAS EL TORO,CA

  • OMG! I remember seeing Today and Guy at the Beacon Theater and I still remember how they tore this song up. I still do the dance moves when I hear it. This does sound like Show Me where You're Coming From by Carrie Lucas.

  • teddy flipped it like he flipped the reddings remote control into my perogative and flipped Livin It up on Friday Night into Just Got Paid

  • @Risse227 That is exactly where this song came from Carie Lucas

  • @Risse227 It sounds like it cuz it's the exact same same hook. Today just changed the words from " show me where ur comin' from" to "Girl I got I my eyes on you" and it's dope too!!!

  • You're the shit man for posting this... thank you gracias!! I'm 38 and I love this music, era...The whole New Jack Swing, T. Riley, High School days for me, good *ucking memories...

  • OH! yeah I remember this jam well ! Just sumthin bout it makes ya wanna move your pelvis.(on Da Dance floor of course what were u thinkin!!).It was the start of my love affair with TODAY !!(BIG BUB) Lee Drakeford (MUAHH!!)..if you listen closely you can hear GUY ..Aaron Hall at the very end .(7:45)..NEW JACK SWING FOR YOuR NeRVes !!!

  • Gotta love it.

  • Nice

  • It's been 30 years since I've heard this ORIGINAL!! It's just as awsome NOW as it was back then. Anybody think about puttin' it back out there????

  • You must mean 20 years, right? 30 years is '79

  • omg! i like this mix!

  • Hiphoplegend. Croon3. You peeped it my brother. That Carrie Lucas influence[show me where you're coming from]. Actually Teddy Riley started working with Leon Sylvers when leon moved to Virginia and that's where the connection came from for the song and also the song Before I let you go by Blackstreet was done by leon Sylvers.

    Peace

    Croon3.

  • GLAD SOMEONE PUT THIS BACK UP

  • Carrie Lucas influenced,,,gotta love it.....Babay...
