  • I still have this entire cassette

  • @KraneAudra There's not one song on this album that I don't like. I also still have it on cassette but it sounds much better on CD....

  • I just recently bought the "in my house" best of the mary jane girls on CD. then I looked inside the booklet to read up on them. and it said "Shadow lover is about missing someone you can't have" and I was like wow this sounds really great. so I put the song on and wow I am hooked on it now! all the songs are great. I like Apollonia 6 to, but Mary janes rule... and just one more small comment. it's cool how they based this song on fantasy. kinda like def leppards photograph

  • That proves that you have the CD because that's just what it says in the booklet. How this never got much airplay is beon me. IMO the Mary Jane Girls never made a bad record. I can jam on any song. Any song they made could have been a hit had it been promoted correctly. Most albums have 1 or 2 songs and the rest are just fillers but not the Mary Jane Girls. I'm starting to see more and more people come across this who really love this track...

  • FireitupBedford, your comment in your info box was on point. This song was sooo overlooked.  I love this song. Thank you for posting!!!!

  • Your more than welcome. Never understood why this didn't get airplay...

  • @MrSexxxy20 Cheri went & auditioned for Shalamar after Jodi Watley left without telling Rick, & she was still under contract with Rick & Motown. Rick said, when she returned to rehersal after not making the new Shalamar line up, he told her to get the fuck out! That is why Cheri was not in the MJGs anymore!

  • Waddup B, I'm formally known as (Stone City), I see you are keeping Rick's legacy alive! Good 4 you bro. This is 1 of my favorite songs of all time, & 1 of my very favorite MJGs joints, but Musical Love is my shit!

  • what are they up to now? miss these girls!

  • I remember this song being on the flip side of the single "walk like a man" It seems like it should have been totally the opposite.

  • feel the fire n this song

  • I love this song The production on this was Dynamic!

  • How can I emphasize FEMALE R/B Soul groups from back in the day, and NOT play something from the late Rick James' treasure chest ?

  • this song is one of the best songs they have ever done...
