    I LOVE my little sister. I remember (back in the 80’s) when we blow dried our hair out and lip synced to this album. Our Mama loved it! GOOD times. 😂🤎❤️🎉💕

    When they start into the second chorus, simultaneously vocalizing different melodies in yet perfect harmony and June belts out, "Oh, yes I do!" just before they sing "I need you" in the chorus in the same notes, you can really hear the incredibly powerful range and soul that June possessed with her voice, as well as her gospel roots that she never abandoned. What a gift! She is so dearly missed.

      YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!! This is a love song (true enough) but if you listen carefully to the lyric... you MAY think is about carnal, romantic type...but it really isn't about whoever you crawl in bed with for sexual gratification, but actually is about sibling love. Sister's love in this case, and this song really touches my heart because well...my 4 brothers mean the world to me, so I identify with it =)

    Love, love, love this performance. It is extra special. Actually all their live performances are superlative. Their beauty and authenticity not to mention extraordinary talent illumine every show, interview, appearance wherever, and I have never been to a live performance. They deserve so much more recognition and honour for enriching all our lives. I am so in awe of them but missing Anita especially. Love them all and pray Ruth continues to keep the Pointer Sisters flag flying high. Oh what a treasure! ❤

    This song always takes me to a good feeling place that only the 80's can. The 80's is a moment put into the microwave, pre-heated for seemingly my own fine, magical selective tastes. Every song back then sounded beautiful and angelic with bells, all the slow ones that is.

    @Cicilio1983 RCA sent this primarily to R&B radio, where the Sisters had struggled for airplay. This got up to #13 and then R&B radio forced Automatic as second single (Jump was supposed to be released, but got pushed back). It may not have been a pop hit, but it paved the way for Break Out to be a multiformat smash. INY has been included in every PS GH release showing the importance of the song.
