They Had It!!!
Love this song!!!
Look at the 9(nine) footstep movements TO THE BEAT, by the trio to the right, from, 2:31, to 2:36. They did it in sync, beautifully. I really like the first step by the one to the left within the three. She extends, and brings back the right foot smoothly.

"Iiiii know you want us both."-1:43, to 1:45.- BEAUTIFULLY said baby. She has a FANTASTIC ability to change her voice. That's because she sings in a higher voice from 2:31, to 2:33, when she says. "It might hurt me for a while, but of one thing i am sure."-Get em, baaaby.

Not true. The song was written by Anita Pointer and Bonnie Pointer, with a small credit to David Rubinson for the title. Anita wrote the song about one of her relationships.

On Apple Music it does have June and Ruth listed as writers for some reason. Anita and Bonnie did write it though
