The greatest record Diana Ross never made.

Sounds just like her, doesn’t it? And as we approach Valentine’s Day, its lyrics are suitably romantic and sung by a woman too. This is good because, contrary to popular belief, women are apparently far less romantic than men. On Friday, for example, who’ll be expected to buy the champagne and roses and book the table for two? Exactly. But this wonderfully romantic tune redresses the balance. Oh, wait a minute – Stephanie Mills might be singing it but who wrote it? Ah, James Mtume and Reggie Lucas.
