    This song reminds me of my senior year in high school in 1982. Getting ready to graduate and venture off to college. This is a very powerful song. Love the Gap Band.

    I can't begin to tell you how much this song means to me. The Gap Band was the first concert I ever went to. And this was the song I sung at my first audition, which landed me a world tour with a famous artist. I got to meet Charlie Wilson and his band the night of the gig. Lovely guys, so full of charisma, who really encouraged me to sing and gave me amazing advice. Now, as a woman, full-grown, this song resonates in a very different way...
    I love this band.
    Part of the soundtrack of my life.

      I know what your young through brother. I lost mom in 2005, pop in 2008. I bring this up because the more we here the pain that we are going through from others, the less lonely we feel inside. Take care friend, our parents will always be with us.

    The Gap Band’s Gap Band IV album was their biggest selling album which was certified platinum topping the R&B charts and was also a top twenty pop album peaking at number fourteen mainly on the strength of the hit singles Early In The Morning,You Dropped A Bomb On Me and Outstanding. In my opinion The Gap Band IV is truly my favorite all time Gap Band album. Rest in heaven Robert and Ronnie Wilson.

    I was listening to this on the radio today with my 10 year old girl whilst in the car. I was about to turn the radio off as we reached our destination and she was like "mummy leave the radio because i want to listen to the rest of the song". I always make a point of playing the oldies to her so she understands good music. I love the Stevie Wonder line 'if you really love me'.
