      Right On! In the UK they are one of the most successful Girl Groups of all time and the first successful one. They kicked the door open for every UK Girlband that came after them most notably The Spice Girls. If you can, check out The UK Girl Groups like Eternal, Misteeq, The Saturdays, All Saints, Little Mix, and Girls Aloud and The Sugababes.

    Songs: Point of No Return, Let Me Be the One, Come Go with Me, Seasons Change. This would be a great group for Shawn and Mel to check out.

    This track was a huge 1986 hit, my senior year in high school. Nu Shooz consisted of then the husband and wife team of John Smith & Valerie Day.
    Unfortunately they only had two songs on the charts. The other one was "Point Of No Return"...

    There were a few funky white girls of this period which had big hits but few people react to. Try Tara Kemp doing "Hold You Tight", Ta Mara and The Seen doing "Affection" and of course the great Lady T, Teena Marie, doing "Behind The Groove" and "I Need Your Lovin' ".

    This is next to I Can't Go For That as one of the most sampled Songs of all time. John Smith her Husband wrote the song so he sings all the way to the bank due to writer's royalties. They did all of the shows back in the Day, American Bandstand, Top Of The Pops (UK) and were one of the few white acts to do Soul Train.

    this makes me homesick over a time in my life, not a place. Summers outside playing with the neighborhood kids in the garden hose. Knowing it was time to come inside when the street lights came on. Running home from school just to watch MTV because they played music videos back then. School was fun. We passed notes. We read books. We interacted with each other. No other time was more authentic than the 80s.
