    This is the era when you used to look forward to going out, just having a good time. No drama, just dancing, networking, and then the meet-up at a restaurant afterward just to keep the party going.

    Kwame and A New Beginning created something special with this track, the dance floors of that time at the NCO Club on Fort Dix, NJ were jam-packed with this cut, well arranged, the horn section sounds real even though I'm sure played with a sampler/synth, then ending with what sounds like a real trombone. To this day I remember the excitement on the dance floor with the beginning of the 2nd Verse @ 1:34; Kwame's delivery is crisp and clear, and Tasha's Vocals, forget about it!!! Lastly, the great sample-groove is from Bobby Byrd's "I Know You Got Soul"

    if there's any hip hop artist that defined 1990 besides hammer & kid n play, it's Kwame. And this is a bonified club classic!

    The composition of this song is amazing. Ahead of its time by decades. I was in third or fourth grade when I heard this song for the first time while riding in the backseat of my dad’s car in Louisville, Kentucky! I remember that day like it was yesterday. A dj was doing a Saturday night mix on an urban radio station and played Ownlee Eue. I was blown away then and i am still blown away over 30 years later. i also had a crush on Kwame lol

    After all, frankly this is amongst one of my best dancing songs at the club. O. M. Goodness, anyone you need to watch me danced this beautifully crafted rap song at the club.
    As such, another of my undisputed dancing songs. Therefore, my salutation to Kwame well done song, and a good nice video as well.
    Moreover, honor to all the other singers, whose songs kept me on the dance floor for hours. Due to, their beautifully flawless crafted dancing musical.
    In addition, I honored the other kinds of songs like the smoothing, calming, love, etc . Sincerely, these other kinds of music, I also enjoyed listening to, if I am not on the danced floor.
    Thanks a bunch, to all the artists whose beautifully crafted songs kept me on the dance floor for hours. Meanwhile, I am grateful to all the other artists whom songs make me very happy listening to them.
    Spiritually, I give thanks to heaven for the gifts of flawless music on this Earth realm.
    Happy birthday to me, and as an official senior citizen.
    Happy, happy, prospered and safe 2020 to everyone around the Globe.
