SoulAlive	Alot of people criticize the "J.T.Taylor years" but I think this is a solid cut....a truly soulful midtempo R&B jam.There's nothing "crossover" about it.

I agree.1983's 'In The Heart' album was their last great album,imo.'Emergency' had one great track ("Misled").

this might be my favorite K&tG track from the "JT years.."

I like how he starts singing in a lower range, but then by the end of the song he's riffin' in a MUCH HIGHER falsetto..

& that whole

"you can have it.. if you want it.."

I remember pulling more than 1 female back in the day with just that 1 line..!
