This has got to be one of the best songs I’ve NEVER heard. eek2

A friend gave me this to listen to. He picked it up on a no-frills CD for $5 at the supermarket.

The song is incredible. Great melody....great arrangement....great singing....great driving disco beat....great clean, fun song. It almost makes me want to get back into playing again.

How is it I’ve never heard of the song itself OR the artist? I’ve been disc jockeying and collecting music for years. Never saw this one until my friend gave it to me. No one ever even asked me to play either the title or the artist.

Was this song a “biggie” in the USA at one time....in the Disco era? I’m really surprised I’ve never heard this tune before.

P.S. I think the version I got here is an extended remix….it’s 5 ½ minutes long. Probably better than the original version. Whoever did the remix really knows his stuff.

Anyhow....can anyone tell me about this tune?
