"Could It Be Right" by Earth Wind & Fire (1984) 
One of my favorite EW&F ballads.From the 'Electric Universe' album.Should have been a single!! This song is a lost classic,as far as I'm concerned.It's another collaboration with producer David Foster,who co-produced the excellent "After The Love Is Gone" several years earlier.I'm surprised that nobody has come along and re-made this song. | |

This song was okay. Wasn't the other ballad on the album a single.
We're living in our own time. My cousin female of course used to want to listen to my album for that one song. I always wanted to hear magnetic or electric nation. Wasn't this the album where verdine first went into the lab to construct his infamous perm.  Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

"We're Living In Our Own Time" is a nice ballad but I don't think it was a single.The three singles from this album were...
"Magnetic" "Touch" "Moonwalk" | |

Although it's a beautiful song, outside of the vocals, the other classic EW&F elements have been stripped away (rhythm guitar interplay, Philip Bailey/Maurice White verse/chorus/bridge division of labor, horn support).
This is one of the main reasons I stopped seriously listening to their albums after Faces. You can smell David Foster from the piano intro.

Yeah,you can tell this is a David Foster production,from the very first note This song is similar to the stuff he was doing with Chicago and Lionel Richie around this time. | |

Horrible 80's cheese that sounds nothing like the good ol' EWF It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I know I'm in the minority but I enjoy the much-maligned 'Electric Universe' alot more than 'Powerlight'.Neither album can be considered a classic but 'Electric Universe' sounds alot more energized and aggressive while 'Powerlight' loses steam halfway through.I always say that if 'Electric Universe' had been recorded by another band (say,The Human League or The Talking Heads),it would have been a blockbuster. 'Touch The World' was considered a return to form.I love that album. | |
