1993 is the cutoff for me. 1994-1999 were good years....but gangster rap (around 1989) was making waves by that time. It was all about looking/acting hard and not having fun and enjoying life and being around people not fearing you losing your life.

No black family reunion or any bar-b-que is complete without this ‘feel good song’. This song also gave rise to several popular dances along the way. It remains a staple in the black community and is still popular at weddings and other gatherings to this very day. In the Deep South, we could always tell when it was last call and last dance in nightclubs because the deejay would put this on the turntable, signaling that the lights would be coming on and the club was closing for the night - usually around 2:00 AM ....... A Classic

Every Saturday night, I’d be at this bar down near London Bridge drinking with some friends(I made more as time went on) and the dj would always play this song and EVERYONE was out on the floor dancing. Thew job didnt work out and I had to mover home in the spring of 1993 but I never regretted taking a chance moving from the midwest to the desert. Great people, good times.
