"... career-defining ..."
- PopMatters.com
"... excellent, custom-made tunes ... underline the renewed joy and self-reliance that infuse her singing ... they force her to sing out over settings that are both propulsive and lush. The finest compositions here hitch nifty catch phrases to neat hooks and build them step by step into towering climaxes ... (the ballads) become transcendent through vocal performances so warm and full and throbbingly 'sincere' ... (on the title track) Ross lets loose with some of the most uninhibited singing of her career."
- Rolling Stone
Written and produced by husband and wife team Ashford & Simpson, this acclaimed 1979 release from Diana Ross features the number one dance hit title track, which was also a top 20 single on both the mainstream and soul charts.
