Their 1990 debut album, Gonna Make You Sweat included four hugely popular singles, the most famous of them being "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)." Subsequent releases such as "Here We Go, Let's Rock & Roll" and "Things That Make You Go Hmmmm...." confirmed them as dance music's most successful act of the day.

Their sophomore release, Anything Goes, failed to match the mainstream success of its predecessor although it did produce a #1 on the Club Chart, "Do You Wanna Get Funky." The group disbanded in 1994 when David Cole died of complications from spinal meningitis.

Clivillés and Cole had recorded dance music under other names, and had showcased different vocalists prior to starting their C+C Music Factory project. Their production work for the group Seduction is the most well-known of these earlier endeavours. After the huge success of their debut, they became highly sought after producers and worked with Mariah Carey, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, Whitney Houston, and James Brown amongst others.

C+C Music Factory Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Long ago, I had a special friend
Someone I gave my heart and trusted till the end
But then things went down, he really did me wrong
And left me feeling so confused abandoned and alone

But then you came alone like a breath of air
Uplifting me, you showed me how much you care
So here we are, together you and me

Hey baby, let's share that beat of love
(Share the beat of love, share that beat of love)
Let's share that beat of love
(Share the beat of love, share that beat of love)

I wanna thank you for what you've done for me
How you helped me to express the love I have inside of me
I must confess, I held it deep inside
Until you came along and showed me how to let my feelings fly

So here I am so in love with you
Together we can feel very special groove
We've got the champagne, darlin'
Tonight's the night

Hey baby, let's share that beat of love
(Share the beat of love, share that beat of love)
Let's share that beat of love
(Share the beat of love, share that beat of love)

Let's share that beat of love
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
Let's share that, let's share that beat of love
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
Hey baby, let's share this beat of love

Funny how life can turn you around
One day you're lost, next day you're found
I'm so glad that we happen to find each other
The things that you do show me that you love me
And you know I love you too

So let's take this time to discover
All the possibilities love has got for you and me
I know the deal, this love's for real, yeah

Let's share that beat of love
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
This love's for real, 'cause I know the deal
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)

I know the deal, I wanna share that love
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)

I wanna share your love, let's share that beat of love
(Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
