  • "How Long (Betcha' Got a Chick on the Side)" is a song by American vocal group the Pointer Sisters, released as the first single from their Steppin' album in 1975. Written by group members Anita Pointer and Bonnie Pointer with David Rubinson, the song's mixture of funky R&B and the sisters' soulful harmonies helped make it a standout in the Pointer Sisters' early catalog. The single was a significant success for the group, reaching number 20 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and was the group's first and only number-one single on the US Hot Soul Singles chart, where it spent two weeks at number one.[1]

    Look at the 9(nine) footstep movements TO THE BEAT, by the trio to the right, from, 2:31, to 2:36. They did it in sync, beautifully. I really like the first step by the one to the left within the three. She extends, and brings back the right foot smoothly.

      "Iiiii know you want us both."-1:43, to 1:45.-
      BEAUTIFULLY said baby. She has a FANTASTIC ability to change her voice. That's because she sings in a higher voice from 2:31, to 2:33, when she says. "It might hurt me for a while, but of one thing i am sure."-Get em, baaaby.

      Not true. The song was written by Anita Pointer and Bonnie Pointer, with a small credit to David Rubinson for the title. Anita wrote the song about one of her relationships.

      On Apple Music it does have June and Ruth listed as writers for some reason. Anita and Bonnie did write it though
