This song does not get enough respect, especially on the keyboard work! Holy smokes. Mad respect to Shannon and Chris Barbosa, Jeff Bova, C.P. Roth, and Anne Godwin.
On this day in 1985 {June 29th} Shannon performed "Do You Wanna Get Away" on the Dick Clark ABC-TV network Saturday-afternoon program 'American Bandstand'... At the time the song was at #94 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; five weeks earlier it had peaked at #49 {for 1 week}, and it spent 15 weeks on the Top 100... And on May 19th, 1985 it reached #1 {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart... On the same 'Bandstand' show she also performed "Urgent", it peaked at #68 on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart... Shannon, born Shannon Brenda Greene, celebrated her 59th birthday one month ago on May 2nd, 2017...
Chris Barbosa, who produced the first two albums, had such a great neck for making very melancholy dance songs. The intro of this song is just epic. If you like this sound, you should listen to Monet (her album was called "Leave the Lights On" and was produced by the same team. It sounds like the album that Shannon never made.
Supersound never heard. Super song never heard! Just came across it on Miami Vice during my second viewing in season 3 episode 3 minute 38. Of course, the re-mix of the maxi 'Let the music play' is unbeatable. But.... BIG thx. 4 sharing...^^. 🤩👍
@@moonraker30 I would think so this whole album/style/urgent Janet Jackson written all over it, even the hairstyle, it was really over for my boo Shannon when the rhythm of nation Era Janet started 1988=really game over😐😐😐😐😐
I love some Shannon best song in 1985 Do Want Get Away. Mark Harris II only just 7 years old perfect beautiful songs i like it and I love it? This song for you babe 👸🏿 Lasthisa Turner.

Yes, back to the 80s please!

Beautiful music from the 80s
Oh how I wish that I could escape back to the 80’s .........So much great music back then
Still a great song! I used to crank this up back in the summer of 1985.
My favorite song by Shannon, should have been just as big as “Let The Music Play”!
OMG EXCELLENT SONG THANKS unidiscmusic congratulaciones ❤
Thanks Miami Vice, a solid gem I would of missed otherwise
Love you Shannon,freestyle diva goddess!!!
One of the best songs that come from SHANNON'S music catalog!
All of these years, I could not figure out who sung this! Wow Shannon, great song of the 80s. Haven't heard this since I was a kid!
Ahh, this is my favorite Shannon jam.

I remember this song when I was a kid. I used to love the hook.

I have always loved Shannon. She needs an UNSUNG
She has one

Genial Shannon!!!... buena letra, voz y música!!!!
Nominada compositora bella Shannon!
always wondered why this didn't climb the charts.
Uuuh because the emergance/come up of Whitney Houston and Janet Jackson getting into their prime= game over for shannon
charmamillion In a nutshell, and she was pushing back when they trying to make her into a Janet Jackson clone

Watchin Miami Vice and this song came on.. I knew it was Shannon as soon as I heard her voice... Nostalgia 😆
That was the great thing about Miami Vice. That show had the best music.
One of the great montages in that seminal show.
Those were the days... That was my favorite song at the time.
This song has a lot of bass. I wish I could listen to it on my Boston Acoustics speakers instead of on my computer.
This really belongs on Spotify
Yes it does 😊
@@bandocraig2023 it is
This is why i purchase my music on cds and download on my phone because amazon and spotify don't have a lot of music or mixes
A great tune & time. From Shannon's second album. Should have done better on the charts...🎵🎶💙
Yes
I was born in 86 all my older sibling know about her but ive barely listened to her whole albums a few years back she was no joke.
Cómo si fuera ayer
Love her music
une voix unique et un titre énorme
Loved this! Yes Shannon
I found this song I never heard. I loved disco then I love it now.
This is called FREESTYLE❤️
I had a pair of Pyles that destroyed a speaker box for me during this era. Aaaaahhh the great old days
entered Billboard April 6, 1985.. reached #49.. reached 31 on the Dance Chart
classic hi energy! yes-this is the creatures!

!!!!!!
I can see why she was a one hit wonder. All her follow ups to Let the Music Play were forgettable clinkers like this.
Forgettable? Clearly, that's your opinion.
@@tomjoad4551 I totally agree with you Tom.
Forgettable?! You're taste is clearly questionable then.
She not a one hit Wonder she got more hit then you by itself lol 😆😆
@@bandocraig2023 yeah they try to make it that way, but No.
