    9th grade, woodshop class, the new girl wearing a white fluffy blouse, baby blue shoes and spandex mini skirt and white stockings was singing this song as it played on the radio. When she got to the chorus, she looked me dead in the eye. Then she asked me for help on her project. I walked her to school every day after that. I have very fond memories associated with this song.

    ***THE JETS TRIVIA TIME!!!*** .....pssst....can I tell ya a secret!??
    ...about TIME The Jets get some 'Empress Love'! ...this was a HUGE Dance Club tune Spring 1986 for the Family members; It was the 2nd tune from their self-titled LP....THIS, was when the "80's" became VERY neon-centric, and The Jets' flashy teen garb, set off the "Saved By The Bell" era, for Teens!
    ...."Crush..." hit ALL the demographics, funky for Blacks, lyrics for (white) Teens, snazzy Freestyle influences for the Clubs...and, although the Family members were Samoan, but everyone thought they were Latino, so THAT helped....
    - ...the tune hit #3 Pop, among some VERY strong 80's competition...take a peek, June 1986....
    10. Nothin' At All - Heart
    9. Who's Johnny? - El DeBarge
    8. Holding Back The Years - Simply Red

    The Jets is one of my favorites from the 80’s, and I wasn’t kid or a teen, I was mid 20’s when this was released, but the video and the band embodies so much about being young in the fun 80’s, the synths, the dances, the bright colored “ mall” clothes, the hair, just so much fun cool style! And the lyrics about crushing on someone in secret, might be someone at school, at work, or someone you see at the “ mall” all time, since we spent a lot a time there hanging out. So blessed to be young and experience the 80’s, it was a blast!
    Oh, you must do You Got It All next(music video!) , it is also my favorite song from the 80’s, I play it everyday and watch the video too!

    They had a few very memorable hits, Crush on You is definitely one of them. Sadly The Jets got screwed by their manager. They only got a fraction of all the money they made. They also had to face creative difficulties with their record company. They wanted The Jets to incorporate hip-hop elements into their third album. After a long battle the album was finally released, and it bombed. The Jets disbanded after that.

    I'm getting "New Jack" vibes from the song and the presentation. Nice pastel accents on all their baggy clothes. Thin ties, bandana wraps, and questionable perms on the guys. Very eighties, more East Coast than West Coast. Menudo meets Madonna with a dash of Prince to spice up that cheese. Pop songs about crushes were not in my focus in 1986. I might have heard the song playing on the radio somewhere. It's catchy, like Sheila E. The way the video presents the song is remarkable because it was over a decade before shows like American Idol etc. choreographed numbers for television that way, almost like a wrestling match, with that stage and the various risers. Did Paula Abdul have a hand it it? I wonder.
