This song represents the long summer nights before social media , cellphones only landlines back when you had to actually holler at a female face to face shoot your best shot and if you were lucky you'd take a walk thru the park or sit and make out in your hoopty at inspiration points, then grab a bite to eat take her home, talk to her on the phone for another hour then both fall asleep on the phone together. ahhhhh the good old days!!!!
This is pure R&B. No auto-tune, no rap, no sampling. just smooth heart and soul. The record industry really dropped the ball when they let R&B morph into the crap that is out there today.
I remember listening to this over and over back in 86. They surely dont sing like this anymore. He put his heart and soul in the damn song. Love it....im white ppl ask me all the time why i listen to this type of music. I say its pure soul. Give a try.
This is what R&B really Is its about how one really cares about and to know who that person that they are in to really are and feel 4 them factz and im only 24 saying the truth born 91.
Summertime '86 baby... no jheri curls and too young, was scared 0f girls, lmao! Just started middle school in 87. Then the 90s happened. Experience coupled with growing into my muscles and style. Then the girls came with the duke flat top, lmao!
One of the best parts of this video to me was 1:16, when Bernard Jackson sang, "I want you bad." Just the look of seriousness and finality in his face when he sad the word bad was a trip to me.
That's cool that Columbia Records sent Surface and the production crew to New Orleans to film this video. The way this song was sung and Bourbon Street as a backdrop, just a perfect match.
This is mine & my husbands song! He dedicated to my over the radio back in the day! We fell in love to nothing but the Surface album Second Wave....I love you honey Tommy!
I love this song bring back so me memories back in the day . Life was sweet things was cheaper. People knew how to love an men an women was connect them back in those days someone tell me what happened to the people in the world today
CLASSIC MUSIC!!! Thank you RU-vid for providing this video network so people can share their videos and relive their youth when music was good. Also a special thank you to SurfaceVEVO for posting this video.
This was the jam when I was in basic traing back in '89. I was stationed at Ft.Sill,OK and when we could listen to our walkman, this is the cassette everyone had. Good times indeed go by fast. Drew,MS ......wzup John Sanders in da house

Ooooooooohhhhhh this was my jam back in the day...whaaaat.......this was REAL music....laid back love making baby making kuts....I miss them days..this was really a treat :)
Man this brings back some memories...Black AC Radio stations were playing this and if you weren't listening you had no idea this song was out. I remember buying the CD and falling asleep while it was playing, woke up and "Lately" was just starting. Lost a lot of sleep that night since I kept playing it over and over...
