It starts out different with different ad libs at the beginning.

Her 1986 album "Destiny". The long version can be found on a Japan disc called "Perfect Fit", which is a compilation of her 12-inch" songs from the albums "I Feel For You" and "Destiny".

that album is so painfully underrated

to me it was the bomb back then, and it still is the bomb today

Has anyone tried unplugging the United States and plugging it back in?

I know. Many of her R&B fans hate it because it's a more Rock oriented album. But, with the exception of "Earth To Mickey", it was a fantastic album. I still keep it in regular rotation.biggrin

I'm not crazy about the Destiny project

and it's towards the bottom of my list

of essential Chaka albums..

but it's not ALL bad

I do love "The Other Side Of The World"
