The genius of this song is overwhelming. I’m not sure if it’s Crystal Waters’s haunting vocals that bring awareness to the less fortunate or it’s that incredible crawling bass line. The way the song balances lyrics with singable melody and the way the drop offs round out the composition is perfection.

[@VincentDonald-kb3ij]

Crystal waters said in her live interview she remembers an older homeless lady singing . She remembers when she was a kid , that it was a homeless lady always singing while asking for change in New Jersey . That's why says constantly repeats the chorus . she remembers her everyday life in New Jersey. It's a timeless classic from.my high years back in year : 1991.
