      @douglastaggart9360 Yes- it was released in 1989. It was an instant hit. It was also played at my senior prom. I started college in Fall 89, and it was still a hit at college parties well into the following year-at least where I went to school. 😊

    I remember groovin to this as a 20 something, and another one of their's Keep On Movin. Ck that the video. The UK had some great R&B groups that came out in the 80s Soul II Soul, Loose Ends, etc. Anyway, thanks for the post. Great group 🥰

    8th grade, I had the coolest school bus driver. He would turn on the radio and turn it up. This song would play hourly, along with Girl you know it's true, Blame it on the rain, Straight Up, Forever your girl. Milli Vanilli, Paula Abdul and Soul II Soul were kings of the radio.
