A sad and sexy song at the same time! I just love Kim´s voice. My youth in the early 80s.

Can't believe it has only 27k views. Incredible. Kim's best song followed by Draw of the Card, When I'm Away From You, More Love, Hit and Run, Don't Call It Love

I just found my "Mistaken Identity Collection" cd on Razor & Tie in a drawer. It still holds up.

I loved this song the first time I played it (turntable days). I bought the album at Tower Records on Sunset in Los Angles. Great album.

THIS SONG SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN MORE AIR TIME WHEN RADIO WAS KING.

I love the album photography, some kind of "intriguing". When I purchased this album in 1981, I did fall in love with now, 2020 and beyond. And this 2021 (April 1981), it is turning its 40 anniversary.

I literally play this track to relax after a long day. Gets the alpha waves going!

[dmitrystetsenko]

Kim is one of the few God blessed Divas I witnessed within period of mid-seventies till today. What a voice! Still love her song as much as before.

1981, un año de grandes recuerdos. Y por supuesto, esta artista y su música forma parte de dichos recuerdos.

When your lover leaves you in the dust then just pops up as if nothing happened.
