The Emotions had a total of 3 Top 40 hits which reached numbers 4, 40 and 4.
Their debut earlier on in the year was the record they're best known for, "Best Of My Love", which had also been number one in America. That record was written by Maurice White and Al McKay from Earth Wind & Fire.
This follow up was penned by Emotions members Wanda Hutchinson and Jeanette Hawes. It appeared on their "Flowers" album from 1976 which came before "Rejoice", the album from 1977 which contains "Best Of My Love". The fact this song was older perhaps went against it chart wise.
The line where they sing the title was used as a sample on "Loaded" by Primal Scream.
Their final Top 40 hit came in 1979 as collaborators on "Boogie Wonderland" with Earth Wind & Fire.
