Joe Jackson - Breaking Us In Two??

I went to IHOP the other day and they were playing this song that sounded just like Breaking Us In Two. Does anyone know the name of the artist Joe sampled (if he sampled...I don't know whose song was released first)? The music, arrangement etc. was practically identical but the lyrics were different. The song I heard sounds like it may have come out before the 80's.
Here is the youtube clip http://www.youtube.com/wa...C-xazgqpPc
Ohhh you keep saying stay the niiiiiiiiight
Just let me rock you 'til the morning liiiiiiight
It's cold outside
And much too late to driiiiiiiive
You know I need you baby
I'm so lost without your love

That's it...that's the song I heard. It definitely came out before the 80's...the video displays that smile. Now I know where Joe Jackson got his influence for the music and arrangement for Breaking Us In Two. Here's Badfingers video http://www.youtube.com/wa...K3fvaDEd_Y

Thanks for your help biggrin

I love this song

I have Joe Jackson's CD. I like the Badfinger track as well...I have to pick it up. Do you have any background on the group (hit singles, era they hit the scene)? Was Day By Day a huge hit for them?
