Oh GOD NO!! This is one of my favorite songs by the J5 (from the "Dancing Machine" lp). I was also pissed when Troop remade "All I do Is Think Of You", and when of few groups that didn't make it tried to cover "Show You The Way To Go". mad Isn't this like the 30th remake Mary J has done in her career?

Such a great song!!
Thank U Harle 4 reminding me of this.
Gotta listen 2 the Jackson 5 version now.
Funny thing that´s not included but the Japanese
version.It could´ve been a hit single.
That third song on the album,"When we"
in the liner notes it say that it include
samples of Marvin Gaye´s "I want you",
but it´s "Just to keep you satisfied",ain´t it?
Does that mean that Leon Ware get credit & not
the songwriters of the basic track?

Hey, it's not a bad cover. Thanks for the link. MUCH better than that hideous Troop cover as mentioned above.

She traditionally does one every album as a tribute for her mother, who loves the songs she picks. She didn't do one on No More Drama I don't beleive.'

Correct me if I'm wrong. Unless one was on the import version.

Hey Harlepolis, who produced this song? Are there any other tracks on the import CD? I heard Andre Harris and Vidal Davis were supposed to produce a track on there (according to the DVD), but it didn't make the cut. Is it on this CD?

Nah sigh

She hooked up with the Floetry in some studion in Philly(which u can see in the DVD) but according 2 P.Diddy(who's the main producer in the LP) said that it ain't getting along with the texture.

Oh well, maybe we could get 2 hear the joint in her upcoming LP, whenever that will be!

P.S. I hope brotha Saadiq keep trying and call her so they could hook up on a lil' sumthin sumthin since he already produced a joint 4 her nod

Wow I never even knew the Troop song was cover version of the J 5 song.You made me go out and buy the Jackson 5 cd after work today. Dancing Machine and Moving Violation are on 1 cd.

Nah, that didn't work on something. Ray just said in MTV that he produced a joint esp 4 her and he's waiting 4 her 2 pass by his Pookie studio(where ever that is).
