this song was the shit when it came in '85. brings back alot of memories. todays music doesnt compare to music in the 80s as far as r&b goes. todays r&b isnt r&b in my book.

Now you know you have to be cool to sing about a tree, a bird, an ice cream castle and pair of panty hose and still pull women like a freight train! LOL. Nothing but Love Morris!!

I agree, I cut my teenage teeth on great music like this!! So many great R&B groups, Atlantic Star, Midnight Starr, Kool and the Gang, Alexander Oneal, Cameo, Lakeside, The Deele, I could go on for days! Then decent rap came along up until the early 90's and then it all went to hell. Rap is 99.9% crap nowadays. You have to censor everything you and your kids listen to.
