      Yes..and the way he comes up behind her and she turns around and they share a passionate kiss. He kisses one side of her neck then goes across her face and down the other side of her neck. It would be dang near impossible to resist a kiss like that.

    What a passionate song . I remember when Terrance first came on the scene back in the 80’s. His voice was so unique. He sounded like Sam Cooke and Bobby Womack in one voice. What a talent. It’s been a while since I’ve heard this song and it’s only gotten better with time. The classics have a way of doing that. No music today can come close to the 60’s-80’s era.

    This song brings back so many memories! I was 17 years old in 1987. I was working at a place where we where all young, between 16 and 22, and two or three nights a week after work we went to a bar near our workplace. In Sweden you have to be 18 to drink alcohol at bars, but I guess I looked older than my age 'cause I never had any problems ordering drinks.
    We were a group of 15-20 people going to this bar, and every night we played this song on the jukebox, over and over again. We all loved it!
    Then came the day when I turned 18, March 16:th, 1988. Of course it was a birthday to celebrate, and of course we went to our favorite bar to celebrate. The owner of the bar noticed we where celebrating, and asked me what the occasion was. I said "It's my 18:th birthday!" and he was at first mad. "What?!" he yelled. "You've been drinking here for months, and you weren't 18?! We could have lost our permit to sell alcohol if anyone would have found out!" (The laws for selling alcohol at restaurants and bars where, and are, strict in Sweden).
    I felt a bit ashamed, I hadn't been thinking about that, all I cared about was partying and drinking with my friends. Luckily, the owner soon calmed down. Maybe he realized how much money me and my friends had spent there during the past six months or so... ;-) He actually came and congratulated me, and then he said that me and my friends could get free drinks for the rest of the night!
    It was a memorable night - although some things are a bit "foggy" for some reason - that night almost 33 years ago. Terence trent D'Arby, Sign Your Name, good friends, party, turning 18, my whole life ahead of me...

    This song has bittersweet memories for me. I was 7 when this came out and my mom sister and brother were alive now they are gone. We were homeless at the time but with music we got to live vicariously and hope for better days since my father was abusive and we barely had anything. I’ll always cherish these times, holding on for better days and that God continues to wake me up. If it wasn’t for music I wouldn’t be here or dream. Man, I miss this era of music. That kiss at the end is everything! So sensual. I remember having a dance audition to this song and danced for my mom since she was a victim of domestic violence.

      nice try, but i really don't think he ever has had a monolithic ego. personally i think his name change is part of a Spiritual Journey that includes transcending ego. but i don't know the man personally so that's just a guess.
      in any event not i'm not him. if you don't believe me i'd be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet ; )

    This Guy is a Legend!! He had His own Unique Style And Qualities with a Style simular to Prince, MJ and Otis Redding it's Like He was Mixed all into One! A Little bit of James Brown also!! Great Artists are no longer around and Music devolved into the crap that's out in this Generation!! Bring back the Real Artists Like This and Stay Blessed My Brothers and Sisters in JESUS CHRIST Always

    A song with a catchy melody, meaningful lyrics and a song i've only recently discovered. There was some real substance in the 1980's. Now the songs have no beat, and no meaning.We really didn't appreciate the 80's enough.
