Wow, haven't heard this in awhile! Thanks!

Which reminds me, Didn't Eric B and Rakim sample the bass groove from this for "Eric B For President"? Or at least recreated a similar groove.

Love this song instant classic. Fonda Rae was more like a studio singer she put out some dance hits but I dont know what she looked like. I do remember her other song 'Touch Me (All Night Long) I enjoyed alot too.

There was called "Deputy of Love" circa 1982 (dont remember the name of the group) I believe she sang the lead as well.

Am I right?

God, "Over Like a Fat Rat" takes me baaaccckkk! Remember her song "Touch Me All Night Long" that was later remade by Cathy Dennis? It'll forever be associated with this scene from "A Nightmare on Elm Street 2"
