Caron Wheeler, vocal goddess! Her solo work is definitely worth investigating. Jazzie B (on the key-tar) and Nellee Hooper (on computer synths and congas) were the founders of Soul II Soul. You’ll be meeting Nellee again on your Madonna journey.

So iconic! That beat is so classic 1989-1991 and I was just a kid, but I still remember those beats like they were yesterday. It also always makes me laugh cuz I have a few humor books of misheard lyrics that came out in the late '90s with hilarious drawings, and this one was "I wanna be a wombat / I wanna be anemic" (you'll never hear "however do you want me, however do you need me" without hearing that ridiculous interpretation) with a drawing of a fuzzy animal attached to a blood machine. So silly, it still makes me laugh.

The one thing that people forget is how different this beat was to everything being played on the radio in ‘89/90. When you hear it know it sounds like stuff being played today. But when this came out people were dancing to it while being confused by the rhythm lol 😆

The guy you like, that’s Jazzie B. He owned a shop in Camden, London back in the day…. I was in there every Saturday! Lol As well as being a dope ass group, they were also leaders of a very cool fashion Trend in the late 80s/early 90s. 😎 I really miss those days and this group!

Back when this came out, I didn't have cable. We had to call a 900 number on a video request line that cost a dollar if we wanted to see current videos. It went on your phone bill. I spent way to many dollars and had to make payments on my phone bill. This song was one of the ones I requested all the time. I might as well have got cable, lol.

I LOVE Soul2Soul. Jazzy B is a master in beats. Caron Wheeler singing her heart out. Now please listen to keep on Moving. That is another smash hit. UK soul at its finest.it was the Summer of Love!! In the UK you had raves everywhere. And the consumption of a certain mind expanding pill that gave people a feeling of XTC,.. made that summer,.. the summer of love. All the music and people getting together to party and just vibe together. Please say no to drugs…. But that combination of things just worked back then. I was 15 years old and watching BBC specials on the whole hype back then
