Dear Greg T:
I never really liked it, either, but it did top both the pop and R&B charts, so obviously it had widespread appeal.

It was a dance tune, so yes, it had listeners. It was all about the dance back then.

Well, in it's defense, the lyrics aren't that bad to learn....what are you talking about.... I love that song!!!!
Now I am younger than you all, so maybe my brain is not on right
But seriously I do like it. It is better than some of the stuff today.
Happy Birthday, and keep it tight

I just watched the video, and those dancers are gay as hell. Whatever they were doing right at the beginning.
