I was sent this song on cassette by a fellow Prince fan years ago because they thought it was a duet with Prince.
I'd never heard it before but even though it wasn't Prince I really liked the song. | |

I really love this song! It appears on a collection of hers which of course concentrates on her disco stuff (which is really good...not just "Knock On Wood"). I wonder if her other eighties material is good. I don't think it's easy to find. | |

Come to think of it, this was the only tune I remember hearing from her in the mid-80's--and I could never find the albums, only the single! ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

Yeah I finally bought the 12" years ago and looked on the net and saw the background singer name. I think that guy on the radio was confused or he said "Friends"... LOVE THIS SONG. Reminds me of my mom. She used to sing it while washing the dishes over and over. Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records. | |
