    Who's listening to this in July, 2023. 1986 was a good year. Larry Blackmon and Cameo had it going on. Love this jam.

      True story. 7th grade, I'm on the school bus heading to class. Our bus driver was hip and kept the radio tuned to 92.5. They played all the jams! I distinctly remember "Candy" coming on and everyone would go nuts!

      @@1HelluvaGuyBXIt wasn’t BLACK music, it was the sexual and violent nature that was the problem. Had they stuck to this, perhaps the crap hip hop, and gangsta garbage we see today, ruining the youth, could have been avoided. I don’t EVER remember any problems with playing Stevie Wonder, or Tina Turner, or what about MJ? You couldn’t turn on music channels without Jackson everywhere. Just because certain music, that used to be offensive in society was panned, does not mean it was racial. Motley Crüe was never allowed at first. And heavy metal? They were lucky to get a half hour show at midnight, on Sunday’s, and that was filled with useless talking….no real music.

    Cameo is the UNDISPUTED kings of funk. No one has done what they have. They stood tite , holding they own , amongst Prince & Rick . Starting that era with 'shake your pants' and ending it with 'FLLIRRRRTT ' ! , then went on a lengthy hiatus . The second coming of Cameo started with 'Word Up' and all that followed was smash mf hits! The transformation of their music was incredible ..
    .and no one has ever did that as successfully as Cameo. Fans are not always kind to change. I'm trying to stay away from the words "reinvent themselves" , bcuz it is more of an evolution of a band than it is a reinvention of one. They have lived 2 lives...
    & they still Cameo !

Hang out after work for a few hours go home and shower call your boys up and ask "Where the happenings at tonight?" The Cameo album "Word up!" Was always something that kept the dance floor packed. Your correct it was a great time to be young and in the clubs.

    LYRICS
    There's a special kind of person
    Sometimes she's not all she seems
    You only see what she wants you to see
    And before you really know it always seems to go
    Back and forth (Our love goes)
    Take your chances if you will (those looks can kill)
    It'll make you go round & around
    You got to know it by now
    That the truth is you just can't win
    Loves funny like that
    It'll make you blow your cap
    Sacrifice everything and money
    Love has no guarantee's
    And always will it be
    Back and forth
    Take stabs dip and dab
    Forever tryin' to find your way
    It's a sellers lament
    For all the love you spent
    You must have thought it was a bottomless pit
    You can't do it like that
    Love will show you where it's at
    What you put up you'll surely get back
    Cause there's no other way
    If you play you'll pay
    Back and forth
    Love has no guarantee's
    And always will it be
    Back and forth
