I'll post an earlier Timex S.C concert @ the State Fair when we had a Live Band that was actually playing the songs, but this is a nice video especially for the Bay history of pre-rap hip hop whatever.

this is the parent song to "why you treat me so bad" by club nouveau.

Now that you mention it, there are some similarities in the beat and the lyrical content between the two songs.

yes---producers foster& mcelroy were originally slated to re-do and produce the track for "thinkin bout ya" just like they did rumors. they started re-writing and re-arranging the track on their own thinking it would go to mike marshall and timex, but the group opted not to do business with jay king, who hired foster & mcelroy. so they kept the foster & mcelroy version, wrote new lyrics and melody, and "why you treat me so bad" was born.

The 1st Club Nouveau Album entitled Life, Love & Pain, contained 2 covers of original Timex Social Club songs. The first was "Jealousy" (Rumors) and then came "Why You Treat Me So Bad" (Thinkin' About Ya).

Also of note, "Lean On Me" (Bill Withers) was also a cover song, so, out of the 8 tracks on the Warner Bros. album, only 5 were originals. Hold Up!, lets recount. Since track #8 was just a reprise of track #3 "Lean On Me", that would make it 4 originals. This was an early example of how to go platinum using other peoples songs. Ya dig?
