Oh hell yeah!! This song is one of my favorites.I love The Moments,I've seen them at a few of those "Super Oldies" shows that I go to.Other songs by them that I love...


Not On The Outside
Lovely Way She Loves
Just Because He Wants To Make Love (Doesn't Mean He Loves You)
Sexy Mama
Look At Me,I'm In Love



btw,did you ever notice that the sound quality on some of their early songs (including "I Do") isn't that great? Even their big hit "Love On A Two-Way Street" sounds as if it was recorded in somebody's living room...lol...

OOOOH Baby!

Reminds me of bein back in Brooklyn when my mom's boyfriend gave her 2 cassettes o' The Moments. That's the only reason I know their songs.

Du u like "Somebody Loves You Baby". That is a rare B-side. That is probably my favorite Moments song of all time.
