Great song. For years, I always thought this one was from the very next album after the one with "Take Your Time (Do It Right)" until SoulAlive hipped me to the one with "Do It Now".

Harlepolis	If I'm not mistaken, this is Terry & Jimmy's 1st production along with the Klymaxxx song(forgot its title) from their 1983 album. The reason why they were fired which is the best thing that happened to them, otherwise we wouldn't get Cherrelle, Baby Alex, Janet and all of those people.

I'm thinking they got fired while they were doing "Just Be Good To Me". I could be wrong though.

They got fired while working on Just Be Good To Me. High Hopes was one of their first writing credits, but Sylvers/Dozier produced the track (you can tell it doesn't instrumentally sound as much like their other stuff from that time period).

"High Hopes" is from their third album.I don't remember hearing anything else from this album.
