"Do It Now" by the SOS Band (1981)


I just bought their second album last weekend after hearing you say this song sounds like "Take Your Time". I've been loving it.

sos band has awesome cuts, but they all sound like one another. Probably cause they're all in the E minor and/or G major scales

hmph!







lol

The one that really had me confused:

"Anytime" by Brian McKnight
"The Only One for Me" by Brian McKnight

When I first heard "The Only One for Me," I seriously thought it was a remix of "Anytime." I still can't believe they were back-to-back singles. They're a nice song though. biggrin

I love take your time and tell me if you still care, I discovered them in the 90's when other artists remade them and came to realize they were remakes, and loved the originals way better

hell yeah. i think they even had a law suit about that one.
if we were talking about songs from the 70's i think "to be real" and "best of my love" sound identical. i like "to be real" more though.

Yeah it cracks me up too lol it's such a blatant rip-off of "My Perogative".These guys didn't even seem to care that they were all making the same songs,lol.

The New Jack Swing sound was very one-dimensional and rather boring,imo.
