Boogie/Disco perfection from West End. This one encapsulates the underground urban vibe that was happening in 1982. Wonderful mix by Martinelli & Todd put it over the top.

PERFECT: 10/10

One of my all-time favorite songs, it is funny, joyful, up-beat and so powerful that it's become a guilty pleasure. Released in August 1982, it didn't make the charts but after listening to it, you wonder why. The keyboardist and piano man make this one work, as Taylor and her backround singers keep reminding us we can't have it both ways when it comes to love.
