Nice vocals by Jody, who co-wrote it.

Listen to Howard Hewett....he sings much of this in falsetto, pure ear candy!! Love how he effortlessly transitions from his natural tenor to falsetto...SEAMLESS!! He is a VERY underrated vocalist!!

Shalamar was one of the finest Disco groups of all time!!!

Not only their look, but their harmony had such unique distinctive totality. The chorus harmonies are so beautifully layered and you can hear all of them so evenly. Classic group

Ummm, Actually Jody and Howard did not hit it off at first.... Jody herself mentioned that she was not very comfortable working with Howard in the beginning.

Shalamar was not what it looks like from far.... They had more problems than any other group (that was the reason why the group split)

Probably my all time favorite from Shalmar. I bought this album on cassette when it first dropped. It was, in my opinion, from their best ever album, so if this isn't my favorite, my favorite can be found on THIS album. 1981 was a very good, memorable year and 38 years later, in 2019, this album is still relevant! (The video seems a little cheezy, though.)

Was my favorite band that 1981 year, by far

im 42 and I consider salamar one of the greatest and underrated artist on you tube . in my childhood they lifted my spirits when times were difficult and they still do today .their music is beautiful . simplistic in meaning and the harmony between jodys voice and howards just cant be rivalled. start a Mexican wave in lifting the views for their music

Every Shalamar song fills me with positive energy and makes me wanna dance! I'm so happy I was young back then when popular music was positive and lively and not so sick like today - I am thinking of Lady Gaga and all the "artists" selling shocking images and their bodies instead of music.

@gigimorphe6194

Yes true beside that now days musicians they cannot even sing. Most of them audio corrected in studio. Before musicians was not just good but they played and singed in live like records. That era had no digital stuff to correct they cannot bullshit they must be good and that way was it.

On the heels of celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Gold seller THREE FOR LOVE, as originally released on 12/15, making this a smash release for Shalamar, including the hits "Make That Move" and "This Is For The Lover In You." It all kept the ball rolling and signified that at the time known as the SOLAR sound.

Thank Heaven for Jody Watley singing out. If I am not mistaken she co-wrote this track. Regardless, this is one of the best five tracks Shalamar ever recorded and released to the public; that bass line is really kick butt too. I was always the Shalamar fanatic in the house and one day I peeped by older bother's I-Pod and he had Full of Fire and Lover In You listed; I just grinned and said, I'm the fanatic, what is this doing on there, He grinned back and said "cause I like them too" - LOL
