HAHAHH! I taped it off the radio many years ago, and play it once in a blue moon. Definitely had that New Jack Swing touch and sound. "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

I remember that song and Teddy had the record burnin'...But what a coincidence that I requested Culture Club's "Miss Me Blind" about 20 minutes ago off of the New Power Radio site...Dang, that radio station kicks butt!...Aloha~ | |

I bought this album back in the day! The album was actually called High Hat, and had some other Teddy Riley productions on it as well. A decent project... | |

BTW, if you are ever in London, go see the show he wrote and scored, "Taboo." It was phenomenal!!! Let the rain come down...17 days.... | |

I already had At Worst.. The Best of Culture Club, but I had to buy Classic Masters:Boy George for this song. It's still fun to dance to. | |

This was a really great song...now I have to go find it and play it again...!
BTW - he had a song on that album called "You Are My Heroin" that was really cool... By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

I still play "dont take my mind on a trip" now and then. It's part of one of my old mix tapes. What's really the beat though is "Miss Me Blind (Misty Blue Remix)" That shit is hot! Bringing Together Five Decades of R&B/Funk/Soul/Dance

WAIT WAIT!!
Wasn't "Sold" with "Everything I Own," BG's first time-out? No pun intended. I did like the Don't Take My Mind album though. And ironically, I liked the Bobby Z produced tracks the best. Specially - "Combination Skin." "her mother called her angel so imagine her surprise when she walked in to the party with a black boy by her side..." | |
