"you know,no matter what the problem
there's one who understands
and you can rest assured,feel secured
she'll make you her only man"



Finess,I just LOVE this song!! It was a sizable 1973 hit for these talented fellas.In fact,this is probabaly my favorite Dells song.Actually,it's a tie with their 1980 hit "I Touched A Dream".

worship but I still have a passion for "Stay in my corner"

When my mother would play that album, I would sit and look at the album cover for hours!! It had the guys in cartoon form (I think) walking on a rainbow!! I used to draw on it... smile adding flowers and stuff. Singing along with my mother!! smile

I have a passion for the Dells, period. We played cards last night and I played this song, our family's favorite Dells track. My personal favorites by them are I Touched A Dream and The Love We Had(Stays On My Mind). Dru Hill actually made a half decent remake of the latter.

Stymie, I'm looking at the picture here trying to remember which Dell did it. Was it the guy in the bottom left-hand corner?
