Wow....this song has an eerie undertone. It reminds me of my partying days in college in the 1980's; that unmistakable spooky sound of a synthesizer droning on and on in a minor key is the perfect metaphor for for all the perils that go hand in hand with sleeping around.
@BrooklynNYC777 There is no modern version :-( No one makes music like the Old School bands!!! Brick, Cameo, Bar-Kays, Skyy... At least we can enjoy the recording or get lucky to catch the groups that are still kicking it in small club setting concerts.
I didn't realize till now where Snoop, Badazz, & Kokane got their sample from for their single 'Wrong Idea'....i'm a 90s kid forgive me. Love Cameo and Love Snoop and friends!
Did this in a lip-sync contest in my freshman year(85') and won!Made me a big man on campus for the rest of my high school career!Big up Larry Blackmon and CAMEO!!GEORGIA stand up!!!!
Ha! Not as funky as some older Cameo but takes me back, for sure....and this video is a sign of the influence Thriller had on every video after it........big group of dancers doing the same exact thing. LMAO.
Was in the pub earlier this came on. memeory block asked the the bar maid I got a memeory block who's this by? within 5 minutes everbody in the pub is giving there susgestion except Cameo!!
I was so green at 18 years old. A midwest boy with big dreams of making it big in the music business oneday. OMG did i have so much more& so many years ahead 2 learn. I remember i had my 1st car a 1970 Monte Carlo wit a 350 i used 2 gun all the time. Use ta cruise around town & on the highway all by myself thinking i was grown. LOL I bought this cassette & use ta bump it daily while i was driving. Had my gig at mcdonalds & used to say "I'm living the single life!" Ha haha Brings back memories!
this is that jam right here? sombody bring back the flat top.. Lol.. for real!
