I can't bear to remember. Nostalgia is too painful. I just lost my mother a month ago and my aunt last year. The '80s were the best times we had.

Still loving this song in 2024....

[@eopal-uk265]

There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.

[@beautifullife543]

Gloria Estefan actually wrote the lyrics and composition for every hit song and most of her songs, She is a rare talent and the most successful crossover Latin artist of all time, worth 500 million. Gorgeous Lady

[@humbertholloway7701]

What amazes me more is the musical arrangements.....absolutely gorgeous, thick, tasty guitar chord arpeggios and wonderful synthesizers and digital keyboard accents, or melody lines. Maybe her husband gets credit....but it goes deeper; I think they used some very good session players in their band in order to get recordings this good.

[@timstreitz4700]

What a great singer. What a great songwriter. What a great human being and what a beautiful woman. I love this song.

[@dennylibertario2246]

@@timstreitz4700 Don't know whether you're of my generation....but to live in the prime of one's life during the Gloria era was special. Had an absolute crush on this woman.....she was the epitome of sexy but wholesome at same time...and her real life story.....a family tied to the Communist Cuban Castro era and escape to America and Florida and taking the opportunity to use the free enterprise system and the greatness of USA to set a course in music industry and come out on top like she and Emilio did, wow, you have a poster child on why most of the world wants to come to the USA.....a wonderful woman and life history.

[@timstreitz4700]

Denny Libertario I’m almost 54. I’m from Minnesota. I’ve been a huge fan since the late 80’s. I’ve been to 2 of her concerts. I’m such a fan, my wife surprised me during our wedding by having When I See you smile played during the ceremony without telling me. She is the total package. Of course today is her birthday.

[@dennylibertario2246]

@@timstreitz4700 Didn't know today was her B-Day. Must be Karma.....amazing.....I can only add my wife/I love the Estefan's resort down on East Coast of Florida.....very posh....yet very removed from crowds....and great ambience and great food/drink. Check it out.

Truly, the 70's ,80's and 90's were the best years of music. Music that stirred emotions and connections with its audience. Music that moved and held meaning beyond face value. Not that music nowadays isn't great, its just that those were the years of true music.

My God good Lord I was so lucky to have lived the 80's. I didn't even pay much attention to it and I regret it and just dawn to me that the 80's was the bestest years of my life. I am writing this comment in the year 2017. Golly I wanted to go back so bad from 1980-1990! 2017 is good but, the 80's was great!!!!! I missed songs like this one, 80's artist were so talented in a different way. They sang without too many cursing, pure love songs that penetrate the heart, genuine, lyrics were simple and yet powerful, you can feel the emotions...................life was easy then. I can never go back, only memories i have. God it was good!!

[@haroldelrod8515]

Such a perfect song about the thoughts someone has about whether or not to get out of a relationship. I love the Latin sound that Gloria was known for, and those unique tempo changes, which go from mournful to insistent and back again as if truly to emphasize how indecisive she is. Excellent track from an amazing singer and songwriter!

[@deputybluevein93]

It's absolute genius, and I totally agree with your statement

[@sparklemosby5886]

When you're 8/9 years old singing songs, you really don't know what you're talking about but the lyrics hit you differently once you've experienced life. This song does that to me...

[@me2michelle]

Lyrics: It cuts both ways Our love is like a knife That cuts both ways It's driven deep into my heart each time That I realize How it cuts both ways Can't be together Cannot live apart We're heading straight into a broken heart But I can't stop (Chorus) 'Cause I feel too much to let you go I'm hurting you and it's hard I know To stay and fight for what we've got Knowing it'll never be good enough 'Cause you and I are dangerous We want too much and life ain't that way Don't ask for more Don't be a fool Haven't we already broken every rule It cuts both ways, we're in too deep for sorry alibis Can't have regrets or even question why We can't say goodbye Because it cuts both ways No more illusions of the love we make No sacrifice would ever be too great If you would just stay (Chorus) Cuts both ways Our love is like a knife that cuts both ways It's drivin' deep into my heart each time I see we livin' the lie And it cuts both ways It cuts both ways, mmm Cuts both ways Cuts both ways

At that time, Gloria's music sounded like nothing else on pop radio. Her voice and musical arrangements sounded so fresh and energetic, even when she was singing slow ballads. I still associate these songs with being a 10-year-old kid, and going with my mom to the store, or seeing these videos played all the time on VH1 (especially "Coming Out of the Dark" which aired about every half-hour!), which I watched all the time in 1991-92.
