Will always rank among my most favored moments in my career... What a great time working together on this with Toto and David Hawk Wolinski. I still believe this would be a hit today if released again....
There was a night time slot on the radio in Cleveland Ohio called For Lovers Only 93.1 WZAK FM they played this song every night back in 1985. I was nine years old.
I'm so glad to see that others still have a love for this song. I. Asked my friend, and played it for him and he said he did not remember it. I rushed to the comments I saw that Im not the only one who remembered this beautiful song
It's 2 am in the morning and I am listening to this song...... you talk about bringing back memories. I had this song on repeat for days...... Listening to it now, feels like it was yesterday. This song is still so fresh in my mind. These are the real singers from back in the day........ We need this sound back.
YAAAAZZZZ... I was listening to WZAK 93 FM For Lovers Only. (Cleveland, Ohio) 1985... I had a few cassette recordings of this song. It was a song I could listen to OVER AND OVER AND OVER... They don't make songs like this anymore! The falsetto, the piano, the near tears leave your heart on the floor love song... Ugh.... Nothing will match 1980s soul!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I have been looking for this song for for 33 years. I heard it at Purdue University, and never knew who sang it. What a beautiful ballad. It reminds me of fun times on the Yard.
OH MY GOODNESS!!! I'm so happy I've found this song! Been looking for it for years. I remember being 11 years old, laying in front of the radio all day waiting for them to play it so that I could quickly hit record on my cassette player. Haha #memories
Sheri Hauck I just bought this album about a month ago. when I played this song, my neighbor knocked on my door in tears asking can I make a copy of it on CD. She didn't think she would hear it again because she didn't know who the artist was.
I've been trying to find the name of this song and the artist for 27 years! Now I can finally write them both on the insert card of my TDK cassette tape! ;)
Roger Plummer Tell me about it!!! It took me 30yrs. I always knew the song chorus a little bit, but could not remember who sung it. I used to sing it to people and tried using song identifying apps when the technology came out and I still could not find it. Some people thought I was imagining the song 😂😂 November 2017 and I am still blasting this underrated throwback jam.
kikik boyd Very underrated, if it had better promotion I believe it would have became a #1 hit on the charts. This song was ahead of its time I believe.
This song reminds me of my sister Tiney. She kept calling me telling me to prepare things for her but I was listening but then again I wasn't. Well 6 days before she passed I kept that last phone call in the back of my mind but I did not believe that the worst was coming. She left me on June 26th 2015): No don't you say you have to go go away...CAUSE I LOVE YOU SO! I NEED YOU I REALLY DO!.....gone too soon.):
EXACTLY..IT WAS ONLY RELEASED IN TH TRISTATE ARE IN THE MIDWEST..SO ONLY A FEW OF US HEARD IT! a one hit wonder but so special. It influenced a lot of us musicians from that area..ohio indiana michigan..etc.. this was da JAMMY jam..! lol
kwp1911 heheh !! babyface is from indianapolis, and ( Wayyy before me) went to my high school..north central.. so that midwest"sound" that he had, and this song too, were part a culture that defined R&B for 2 generations!! im proud of my heritage and my peoples!!
This song will always remind me of my first crush 1985. I lost my cassette after moving. I found this song at a record store on the west side of Chicago that specializes in lost dusties. I will never lose this song again.
Sing it my brothers and get your lady back, and don't ever let her go away sad or broken hearted. Appreciate all things about her, if not, you will be sitting here looking stupid and feeling lost like me! Word from a man!!!
T. Nina Jackson never saw an album, only had this one on the radio and as a single..didnt remeber the B-Side...? If you have an album darling please , for the love of god, upload it for us!! hehehehe!! i will be so grateful, and im sure all the fans of this song will be too..
Darryl Ellis. Was the master mind behind this song. No one got to know this because he passed away when things began to get started. I bet you can't find another hit from this band. Y? Because he was so talented his absence left a whole. I know, I was there. He it's my cousin. Rip.
I taught myself how to play this song on the piano when I was 16. Such a beautiful song. Looked for it for years online but couldn't find it. So glad someone shared it here!
This is one of my absolute favorite songs. I had just graduated from 8th grade when it was released. It has taken me years to find it. My sister found it for me on a mix cd. It's so beautiful and heartfelt. Thanks for giving me another way to hear this great song!!!!!
Early 80s first time skating with a girl on 95th and State Street on the Southside of Chicago she was as beautiful as this song. I don't remember her name and that hurts but I'll always have this song.
The words to this song is superb, and real man would admit his faults, and beg for his lady not to leave! Amazing meaningful song! Powerful begging.... yes!!!
OMG. Sitting up late just thinking of songs from back in the day and THIS is one of the main ones I came up with. That.... after I FINALLY figured out the name and band again. WOW what memories!!
🤦🤦🤦OMG....... IT TOOK 3 YRS TO FIND THIS TRUE PUPPY LOVE GRAMMAR SCHOOL & HIGH SCHOOL HIT. WHILE LAYING DOWN LISTENING TO THIS SONG THINKING OF MY CRUSH

The late Ruben Locke on vocals. Written by Paul Richmond. Truly amazing song by Amusement Park. Chicago's unsung.

This Song is one of my Favorites from High School! A lot of people don't know about it
I do Sis. I recorded this song on a cassette tape. My rewind button eventually got stuck I rewinded this song so much. Lol
@@MzPami72 what I use to do in those days I recorded 3 times so I don't have to rewind to many times.
This was my favorite cut from High School too ....... After I got over a major break-up
YAAAAZZZZ... I was listening to WZAK 93 FM For Lovers Only. (Cleveland, Ohio) 1985... I had a few cassette recordings of this song. It was a song I could listen to OVER AND OVER AND OVER... They don't make songs like this anymore! The falsetto, the piano, the near tears leave your heart on the floor love song... Ugh.... Nothing will match 1980s soul!!! ❤️❤️❤️
One of my favorites! I worked at an arcade where the middle school and high school kids came and played it.
I have been looking for this song for for 33 years. I heard it at Purdue University, and never knew who sang it. What a beautiful ballad. It reminds me of fun times on the Yard.
My alma mater
