This was THE JAM!! One of my favorites ! Such a great soulful dance song that brought Barbara back to the charts after an almost 5 year absence. This track along with the early house song "Put UP A Fight" were back to back #1 billboard club hits in 1987. After the great response from the clubs and radio, i felt like RCA dropped the ball and should've followed with an entire album. Barbara could sing the phonebook and i would buy it
This song takes me back! First heard this around 1987 or so, as an 18 year-old and even back then, my first thought was, "Man, she has a powerful voice."
@O.G Autistler in the USA, when someone says something is the baddest thing ever made, they means it is the best!!!! Looooool , it is a black american expression, "Baddest" as in super cool. to say that something stinks, you say it is terrible, or you say it is the worst thing ever made. looooool
@O.G Autistler black slang and white slang is not the same. Black slang is something that black, latins and those that hang around blacks understand. you have to take it into context also. But here she mean this is one of the best song ever put out meaning it gets her going!!!!!
Njikapetty Njengenja unfortunately no, KEEP THE FUNK ALIVE!!!! Gotta see see you tonight 🎼 P.s Your aunt got down on this funky jam! Santa Ana 🤝Orange Country👺
No she influenced Jocelyn Brown, that's her aunt and the one that got her into the music business, Jocelyn was doing background vocals for her. Barbara Roy had been around since the mid 70's and pushed her niece in the early 80's with Salsoul record!!!! loooool
DAMN I HATED TO SEE HER GROUP ESTASY, PASSION & HURT BREAK UP, WHEN DONNIE & ROBERTA MADE BACK TOGETHER AGAIN, I COULD'VE SWORN IT WAS THEM, IT HAD ALL THEIR FLAVOR, WRITTEN ALL OVER THAT SONG
NOT Loleatta Holloway BUT of that ilk / extremely good calibre voice. Barbara Roy / Barbara Roy Gaskins, Jocelyn Brown, Loleatta Holloway, Martha Wash, Millie Jackson, Aretha, Annie, Donna, Marvin, Isaac, Barry, Smokie, Tina, Patti, Michael McDonald, Ruby Turner, Caron Wheeler, Kym Mazelle, Angie Brown, Heather Small - just such amazing, purely amazing, outstanding, unique voices even if similar in calibre, but their own uniqueness....supreme, natural soul, legendary voices with the talent to perform live & record & make a sound so amazing n uplifting to & for the rest of us !
Billy Ocean & Shediah Garrett....Tom Jones......Ray Charles...Jamee Brown...."lots" of them.......but an absolute handful out of the billions of us who have thus far walked this earth.
I recently had a stroke. This is physical therapy!
So went can I see you. Rabbit ❤❤❤
So is you come around back to me again Rabbit.

This song reminds me of being in the club Boomerang with DJ Paco , Nairobi- Kenya in the eighties
Everyday, I play this song I must have been 13 years old 58 and still love this anticipation
Still tuff n fresh to this day! Love this Proto-House, dubby boogie sound
This song reminds me of being in the clubs of NYC in the eighties
Magnifique , vraiment trop puissant
Timeless good music! Still feels so fresh 👌🏽🔥🔥🔥‼️
this song was # 1 to me
I remember her performance on a local T. V. show called "SHAKE DOWN" in Baltimore back in 1987, The host was Harold Anthony.

Baddest song ever made
@O.G Autistler I think Leslie meant Micheal Jackson "bad" (as in "badass"), not "inferior" bad.

Drop this on a party and set it on fire. The 12" inch version sounds incredible and holds up. What an incredible choon.
