    Puffy sampled this song in 1997 with 'Cant hold me Down'. If an artist was performing on the Number one music show Solid Gold in the late 70s/early 80s it was like appearing on American Bandstand in the 50s and Soul Train in the 70s. Matthew Wilder got the call in 1984.

    This song was Matthew Wilder's one and only Top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the late fall of 1983. The song peaked at the #5 spot. His performed this song on the very popular music variety show, Solid Gold. The dancers who performed with Matthew on the music video called themselves The Solid Gold Dancers. The dancers and the show were very popular in the 1980s.

    I loved seeing your face light up when you recognized the chorus. A little fun fact, the reference about going to China for laundry, because in the mid 1800's when the Chinese came to America, they offered laundry services since they couldn't work elsewhere, not being able to speak English. Just in case you were wondering about that line in the song.

    1. This is going to a hit
    2. It's going to be on the radio all the time
    3. This could get annoying very quickly :P
    A very catchy tune and a fun listen.
