My upstairs and downstairs neighbors, they all learned to love this song.

I don't have the vocabulary to describe what an absolutely sublime piece of bangingness this is! I hope my neighbours agree.

This song was of one of those songs from 2023 year. 💜💜I will keep good memory of my love. Today I heard in advertising the sample of this song and of course it got on my mind like how happy I was that summer ‘23. I write this comment like a message in the bottle, knowing that it will go down in the deep sea of my love. I wish you well. 💫

A quite simply wonderful cover of Junior Walkers 60s soul anthem. Jamaican reggae at its best.

Alton Ellis, puts that feel into a beloved classic, reggae live on !

[@terryshorr7780]

I've never heard a bad rendition of What Does it Take. Everyone from Junior Walker, Santana, Kenny G, to Alton Ellis are all great treatments for a great song.

[@onetopcookie]

Gotta agree with that 100% 👍

[@pedrosotomayor5480]

Don't forget the version of the great storyteller ,swamp fox, Tony Joe White. The author of Polk Salad Annie, Rainy Night in Georgia, Roosevelt and Ira Lee, Even Trolls love Rock 'n Roll, As the crow flies. And some 30+ other great songs.

[@giuseppelogiurato5718]

Leslie Kong sound is so obvious... Nothing sounds like Beverley records... such a unique sound, compared to other producers of the time... You can tell it's him, whether it's Alton Ellis or Bob Marley or any other star; the "blackhead chini-man" put his stamp on it.

[@giuseppelogiurato5718]

Lol, I just realized this is Duke Reid, not Kong. (It sure sounds like it though; not a typical sound for Duke Reid)

Not to slight the great Ellis, but I've been trying forever via Google to find out the name of the primary woman backup singer because her intonation on her vocal is incredibly emotive and sexy. Anyone have any ideas?
