I love the original version, by one of the members of the group Chicago, Bill Champlin.

I was gonna post this version last night, but was too tipsy. Steve Lukather, of the group "Toto" and Benson's producer, also get a writing credit for this song. Ironically, Donny Osmond does a slammin version of it. It's almost as good as Benson's. Bill also co-wrote, EW&F's "After The Love Is Gone", with David Foster.

George was (and still is) the man. One of the hippest guitar players on the planet. He crossed over from jazz to R&B radio with no problem. Sad you don't hear songs like this on the radio anymore.

I would love to hear him and Stevie to a record together.

I've always loved this song, it's a timeless classic and such a feel-good track!

I'm so sure someone sampled it in the 90's, but I can't figure out who and when
