My brother was pulled out of retirement when Chaka Khan asked him to be her sound guy for her 1983 tour. He had been her sound guy in previous tours and she really wanted him on that tour. My wife and I got a call in California from my brother saying that Chaka would be at the Circle Star Theatre in San Carlos on 11/6/1983. He said that "friends of the band" free tickets would be waiting for us at the counter. We got to sit in a special row for friends of the band and witnessed one of the most entertaining concerts I have ever been to. At one point there were some sound problems and my brother ran out to the stage, crawled around the amps and was able to get the sound back to par. I'll never forget that concert or my brother who sadly passed away in 2020.

This song is so amazing it would've been a hit no matter who sung it, but it's definitely the perfect match for Chaka. They were gonna give this to Michael Jackson if Waner Brothers wouldn't push it as the lead single. MJ definitely could have made this great too, I could even hear Tina Turner doing it justice. But it's tailor made for Chaka Khan.
