Oh, yes. Roses are Red was my summer jam back then. Saw them live at the State Fair of Texas back in '88. I think they're from Dallas, my hometown.

Here's a slow jam by them that I used to like too!

I wonder why they turned down a great song like this confuse It would have fit perfectly on their 'Just Gets Better With Time' album.It woulda been a big hit just like "Rock Steady".

I remember L.A and Face talking about years ago on video soul. I believe
they just wanted a rocking uptempo jam like Rock Steady versus something
mild like Roses are Red. Hey Rock Steady worked.

Isn't the rumor that the groups switched songs? I think they both would've been hits no matter who sang them.
