  • Bob Zilla from ChicagoIt's a party song from one of the truly great writers and singers of party songs. It is not expected to carry any big moral message that might make people feel timid about having fun, but it ends its refrain by saying that the boys and girls you party with should be someone you really love.
    Which is a nice message in a party song.
  • Chris from Germany GREAT song and a small Hit on the HOT 100 back in the summer of 1994 by reaching #59 there

    Had massive airplay ob College radio stations like KROQ in the US but it even reached the Mainstream Top 40 Pop Charts.
    3 years earlier they had another Hit on the HOT 100 with There is no other way
