Love that. My mother used to wear the shit out of that record...I was actually thinking of getting a cd copy for memory's sake

I LOVE that song. I heard the songs years back when I was a kid and then I found it on iTunes a few years ago. I'm so glad I did cause that song is FIYAH! It's my favorite Aretha song.

Love the 12 Inch.

It's one of my favorite uptempo songs that Luther wrote.

I was 18 and I remember

Uh oh...did you have that romantic someone that you could identify the song with? I can imagine an 18 year old girl being a little, er, uh 'romantic' thinking about her new sweetie to this

I think I was too young to know everything the song was saying at the time...but from my teenage fantasy world I understood enough of it though

Definitely one of my faves from Aretha...totally missed it in the 80s somehow.

Good song, GREAT album...

"Just my daydream" is my favorite track on the album.

My favorite from the album is (It's Just) Your Love.

You just gotta shake your head when you hear this quality and then check what these no-singing "R&B" wannabes get away with today.
According to Luther, this was a first take performance by Aretha.

And Marcus Miller should get just as much credit for co-writing/producing that track.
Supposedly Luther & Marcus put the song together during a break on SNL.

Yep they did pen it during a break @ SNL. I have to admit I really dig this song... I didn't @ first listen. It took awhile before I played this puppy in the club, after that it was on, and in the mix...It wasn't that the crowd didn't like it...just me.

Superb track.

Fun lyrics.

Catchy melody, not only on the chorus.

Nice production: the track is juicy yet not over produced (like for example Kylie's "WOW").

Vocals of the chain.


Other great songs from that period:

Aretha Franklin - Get It Right

ARETHA FRANKLIN - Who's Zoomin Who (starts at 1:00)

The damn pop tarts of today don't know nothing about first takes at all. Nuff said Case Closed.

I like the song "Love Me Right",which was the second single

Luther was the ideal producer for Aretha.He supplied her with some excellent material.

I love that cut!

I want to buy this CD. I hope it's in print.

purplecam said:

I believe it is still in print.

daPrettyman said:

Unfortunately most of her Arista cds are out of print.


I have her stuff on vinyl.

purplecam said:

Cam,

Incredibly, they're asking $28.08 to $44.45 for USED copies on Amazon.

CDUniverse is asking $32.85 for an import version.

I always dug her transition into R&Bish dance pop. "Who's Zoomin' Who" was awesome
[Edited 3/15/08 7:15am]

okay, so why isn't this considered disco?

sosgemini said:

I'm inclined to agree with you on this one. Since this song was released in '82 then, it is technically during the wind down of the disco era.

It's totally different from her mid 80 album release Who's Zooming Who.

Too much drama behind that album caused by 2 petty divas god rest one of their soul and bless the other.
