    Forget Me Nots is one of the hardest tracks of the era, an exemplar of dance music production, melody, harmony, funk, groove! Truly a piece of music history, and it still bumps on the dance floor hard as ever. It is worth mentioning that it recently had a run as a trendy song on tiktok.

    As for my record itself, the mix is longer than the LP version, soaking up the funk, and kicks WAY hard. Fucking get it.

      Mix with Cameo's "Back And Forth." Same BPM, same key, and compatible chord progression. 112 / F#. Enjoy. :-) https://discogs.pelisguay.com/Cameo-Back-And-Forth/master/237844

        Those were the times we had,Sharing a joy that we thought would last, Memories of love and affection, Never really was just, like a dream, Was it the simple things, That made me so crazy about you, Was it your charm or your ion, It's not hard to believe, I love you and I need you so I, Sending you forget me nots, To help me to , Baby please forget me not, I want you to -Patrice Rushen 5/5

          Nice classic disco track here. 'Send Me Forget Me Nots' was sampled extensively for Will Smith's 'Men In Black' song. The backing music is the entire music from this song, with a beefed up kick drum. His vocals even sound similar to the lyrics from this song.
