Sorry, I don't know how to post a video but he also scored a solid hit with "I got the feeling it's over." I still listen to that song more than I listen to "Shake you down." Considering he was a Wall Street broker (I believe) who just tried his hand at singing, he did a great job.

Peaked at #5. Was actually a bigger POP hit than an RB hit, peaked at #6 there. Funny thing is that alot of "One Hit Wonders" in america actually had more than one, the second one always tends to get overshadowed, or if the first was huge and the second was top 20 its not viewed as a HIT etc...
