R&B/Smooth Jazz Classic of the Day: "Is It You" by Lee Ritenour (1981) "Is It You"
(written by Lee Ritenour,vocals by Eric Tagg) Someone's just outside,knocking at my door A stranger,somebody unknown Someone's in my dreams,can't get it off my mind I'm tired of being alone Someone's trying to find an easy way inside Come on,I'm right here at home,right at home (chorus) Is it you? Is it you? Is it you? Is it you? Who's that deep inside,sneaking around my heart Are you somebody in love? Show me what you're doing and tell me who you are Hey,I'm ready for love,for love (chorus) Is it you? Is it you? Is it you? Is it you? (bridge) If it's you,come out in the open You don't need to hide your love If it's you,you know I'm hoping cause it's way too late to run away don't run away from love,my love Is it you? (instrumental break) Is it you,knocking at my door? Is it my imagination? Is it you,I can't get off my mind Is it you,you,you? Is it you,sneaking around my heart? Is it my imagination? Is it you,I can't get off my mind? You,you,you | |

The jam used to be "Cross My Heart" Only thing I don't like about either of these songs is Eric Tag. That dude has an awful voice.
But Lee's best work was his first two albums "First Course" and "Gentle Thoughts". The line up on those albums was awsome and include some greats like Patrice Rushen and Harvey Mason. Very funky stuff. [This message was edited Thu Jun 17 11:05:11 2004 by intha916] Bringing Together Five Decades of R&B/Funk/Soul/Dance
