Eugene Wilde - "Gotta Get You Home Tonight" and "Don't Say No Tonight" Eugene had a few hits on the R&B chart in the mid to late 80s including these two #1 tunes:
Gotta Get You Home Tonight Don't Say No Tonight | |

Love them both, but I am partial to "Gotta Get You Home W/Me Tonight," as it felt more original. "Don't Say No Tonight" seemed like a copy. "Be glad for what you had baby, what you've got..." | |

Jean Carne rejected "Get You Home Tonight" for obvious reasons 
ALL these years of listening to this song,,,,I didn't find out that its a Philadelphia International Records creation untill recently  | |

He kinda copied "Dream Merchant" from "Don't Say No Tonight" if you hear it correctly. | |

They probably were since the songs ended with "TONIGHT"! There was a time when I thought both were the same song. Actually I still think that is the case.  "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

I loved the SHIT outta these songs  The only thing I couldn't handle about Eugene was his damn hair  I was pissed when I picked up a Best Of cd a few years back - they did something to that version of "Gotta Get You Home", I swear they left out an adlib phrase from the end. I used to know that song word for word so I know it's missin'! BITCHES   I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |
