    Josie, I remember that song after I listened to it. The lead singer has some beaver teeth; but he's still a good singer.

    Mrs Jones, do you remember the paralell hit that came out in the early 90's " Stronger Than Before" ? Chaka Khan kept it famous, but there was the un-noticed character of a lovely and talented, Joyce Kennedy who sang that same song, the year that it came out. R&B stations like WDAS here in Philly, played both versions. I bought the un-known Joyce Kennedy album on the strength of just that one song. Surprisingly, a lot of the album was worthy, as well.

    I don't remember that song, but living on the west coast maybe I just didn't have the opportunity. I tried looking her up on Youtube and only found a couple of references. Maybe one day someone will put that song up.
