Sorry to hear you never heard of her. But I believe she did a cover of "How come you don't call me anymore."

Stephanie Mills was Dorothy in "The Wiz" on Broadway. My mom took us to see it when I was young. smile

She also had a very successful R&B career in the late 70s and 80s. Her hits included: "I Have Learned to Respect the Power of Love," "I Feel Good All Over," "(You're Puttin') A Rush On Me," "Something in the Way (You Make Me Feel)" and "Home", and "Never Knew Love Like This Before."


"Love Hurts.
Your lies, they cut me.
Now your words don't mean a thing.
I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..."

FYI: When Stephanie left MCA she stated that shae wasn't happy that they were giving all the attention to a new singer Mary J Blige.
