The song is actually based on an incident that involved her manager, who would have breakfast in "Tom's Diner", here in NY. The story is told through his eyes. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

so where he now? I dunno, I think he is still around. The original is an a Capella, a group of D.J. called DNA added the music years later. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

The acapella version was quirky, but DNA took it a whole new level. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Nope. This is one of those songs you don't give a damn. You just jam. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

I caught her in concert about 1 1/2 years ago, and for the first time she did both versions onstage! Her band entered on the a Capella version, and they closed with the DNA version. It was great.

The funny thing about that remix is that it was first done as a bootleg. Her manager got a hold of one and they wanted to sue them. They later made an agreement in regards to rights and credits.
