i'll take a guess and say that this one was... 1976. but d-eye and finess are the gurus on stuff like this for sure. smile

coincidentally, this is the song that jimmy fallon is imitating in his track "idiot boyfriend".

yeah, i love the feel of this track too... makes me remember a better time...

this is sooo strange...

last night Leo's song "When I Need You" was a prominent part of my dream. I haven't thought about Leo, or heard any of his songs for a very, very long time...

Funny. But after remembering this cut, his hair was the next thing that came to mind. You mean he's still rockin' that curly afro?

"You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" (1976) is da jam! I love this one.But,for the most part,I don't really like any other songs from Leo Sayer.I find his music to be bland.He should have came up with more smooth,funky jams like "You Make Me...".

Hey UptownDeb. He's still got the hair, but like he hasn't washed it in the last decade.

Also he's terribly rude and thinks he's gods gift 2 women. He was on a tv programme recently and he just came across weird!!
