Neville was working the New Orleans docks when he cut this for Par-Lo, a label built to release it.

Number twenty-four on the Hot 100, and still a Song of the Year nominee; Ramone cut it at A&R.

Elliot Wolff wrote and programmed it alone, Fincher shot the video in black and white, three weeks at number one.

Two voices and one acoustic guitar, dropped into a funk metal album, and A&M got a number one.
