My dance teacher used to play this for our lessons back in the late eighties. I had forgotton how good it was... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyGUkKVoUxE

Peace, mother, brother, peace of mind
We got 2 love one another all the time
Cuz a kiss on the lips is better than a knife in the back
Can U get 2 that or is your blue train runnin' on a Koo Koo track?
U're 2 laxed, 2 lazy 2 dig all the facts
What it is y'all? We need a new plan, new plan of attack
Everybody jam, we've got the knack
Let's party y'all, let's party y'all
Cuz a kiss on the lips is better than a knife in the back

Now everybody say it

Koo Koo, Koo Koo
Koo Koo

It's your world (Your world)

Sheila's self-titled third album is her best work,imo.I just hate the fact that it didn't get the full attention and promotion that it deserved "Koo Koo" is a nice track.

Yes, and she had another song that was out around this time, the slow jam "Hold Me". Love that song! Shelia is just so awesome.

"Hold Me" is heavenly.....a truly sexy,sultry slow jam.It did very well on the R&B chart.

Sheila never sings 'Hold Me' live.

Yes, she did Noon Rendezous also. She's supposed to come back to First Avenue again this year on her birthday. I've seen her several times the last few years. I wish she would do Sister Fate, Dear Michaelangelo, Koo Koo, and I could go on and on.

She does more of other people songs than she does hers. Sheila I'm just realizing how gifted and talented she really is & why here & Prince(r.i.p.) were musical soulmates. The way she controls her band with the background singers including Lynn Mabry(with her baritone voice) and the musical arrangements she puts together, even the ones she mimics from Prince's(r.i.p.) songs are simply AMAZING & spot on. Plus she's a good dancer & moves pretty good for a woman in her 60's. Plus she's not a bad singer.

NOW since i've forgiven her. I can now give her the triple threat title. That I rarely give any artist.

^^Yes and I wonder if "Hold Me" and "Noon Rendevouz" are about Prince?

Prince wrote Noon Rendevouz, so probably not about himself.

Speaking of Sheila, I didn't know that Nicole Richie was her biological niece.

Yep, Lionel Richie allegedly 'discovered' 2-year-old Nicole Camille Escovedo (her birth name) playing the tambourine onstage with Prince during a Purple Rain concert... And since her parents were not able to care for her, Lionel and his wife Brenda decided to foster her, then officially adopting her when she was 9. But I fear we've gone out of topic a little!

Oh yeah, that's right, was just listening to it the other day from Originals. Beautiful song.
