The bass groove is what draws me to this song plus the little guitar riff. The vocals are as expected from the DeBarge clan.

The bass is kicking, the synths are on point, the drums and percussion are slamming, the uitar riffs are funky not to mention the vocals are tight.

The song is great.

HEY ALL!!

I agree with all of you indeed. the synths and chords, the arrangement. I thought I was the only one. this could be one of them type of songs ya know? you are the only one jamming to it and others look at you funny?

I didn't know that the song was sang on facts of life. I remember it being done on soul train or dance fever maybe?

I also didn't now jesse johnson did something on the song as well.

it wasn't a big hit but hell it got the radio play. it is just banging

Wasn't this after they sort of made Jo more feminine with the feathered hair 'n stuff? Yeah, I remember this episode - this and the Jermaine Jackson one are unforgettable in that cheesy, endearing, 80's sort of way smile

Remember the episode with Stacey Q?

Yep,I remember the Stacey Q. episode nod I haven't seen it in ages,but it concerns Tootie and Stacey entering some singing contest.The two of them bond and Stacey tells a sad,sad story which makes Tootie allow her to go first.She gets up there and starts singing "Two Of Hearts" while Tootie looks on,sadly mouthing the words,thinking "that could have been me".
