TWO 80's TUNES I need help with.. PLEASE

there's this song I hear almost everyday
on the oldies station here
(when I cover for the receptionist's
lunch period)
but I can never get someone
to pick up the damn phone
when I call the studio line to the radio station mad
anyway... this particular song
I know it's a Jam/Lewis production
sounds like a white group...
anybody have any idea
what I'm talking about?

one other....
what is the song that Mobb Deep
sampled for "Got It Twisted"

both of these songs are from the
80's I'm assuming

please help sad
I need these in my life
or on my mp3player rather LOL

I can never catch any lyrics
I'm usually answering the phone
or something...
but it sounds very
Cherrelle/Alexander/SOS Band-ish

I will check into it
when I get home
thanx pimp cool

it's a beautiful song

and no offense to the
white folk on the board
that was the only way
(that I could think of)
to get you guys to
know what I was talking about

there are thousands of JJ/TL
productions I'm sure

I'd call Parliament
a black group
if I didn't know who they were

so please don't take offense
to my sometimes FORWARD phrasing
cool

I'm thinking you are talking about human by the human league.
I'm only human born to make mistakes. I'm only human
born of flesh of man.

Jimmy & Terry produced:

Human
Love Is All That Matters
and I Need your Loving

for the Human League in 1986 I believe. They are all on the album "Crash"

Check those out to see if any of those are it. They were the only pop artists he worked with outside of doing the remix for George Michael's "Monkey".

Was that the answer? I was going to guess the Jets if that wasn't right.
