She's done many uptempo songs.In 1979,she had a huge disco/dance hit "You Know How To Love Me".In 1983,she had another dance hit "Riding The Tiger".In 1991,she had an uptempo Number One R&B hit "Don't Wanna Change The World"....a dance track that even features a brief rap by Phyllis!

"Riding The Tiger"


I hate that song,,,,,it proved to Phyllis that she sounds like shit if she ever made an attempt on going with the motions.

Narada Michael Walden must've been high on dog shit when he decided to give that song to Phyllis, coz he sure heard something we ALL didn't hear disbelief

I have this album but don't remember this song. Tried to get through it but couldn't. Maybe I blocked it out.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off
