I know this one.It's from the 1975 'Mahogany' movie soundtrack.It became an underground disco classic.Jermaine has another great song on that soundtrack...it's called "She's The Ideal Girl".I found this album on a recent vinyl dig.

I find it weird that his bros left Motown to write and produce their own material, yet Jermaine (in the same year his bros were battling Motown) produced and wrote a few tunes for the Mahogany SDT.

I bet that Berry Gordy used the 'Mohagany' project as a way of making Jermaine stay with Motown....

"Yeah Jermaine...we're gonna start shooting this major motion picture pretty soon,and I could sure use some new music for the soundtrack.This movie is gonna be HUGE....dont'cha wanna be a part of it?! I'll let you write and perform a few tracks.It's gonna be wildly successful.You'll become a superstar!"

lol

I know the song a few years now but I always thought JOE Jackson has written it.
