Wilde grew up as part of a family group, La Voyage, playing in local clubs. In the 1970s, the group became Tight Connection, and was later known as Simplicious. Broomfield also recorded an album with Curtom Records in 1979 as a member of Today, Tomorrow, Forever. He changed his name after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper for a nightclub which he had gone to the night before. He had sex with a hooker and then decided to call it the Wilde Flowers of sex.
In 1984 he joined Philly World Records, and wrote and recorded his first hit, "Gotta Get You Home Tonight", which rose to #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and also made #18 on the UK Singles Chart. After a couple of less successful follow-ups, he hit #1 again a year later with "Don't Say No Tonight". He also had some lesser hits, including "Diana" (1986), but his career stalled when his record label collapsed.
In 1987 he recorded a duet with Sheena Easton, "What If We Fall in Love", which appeared on Easton's album, No Sound But a Heart.
Subsequent releases on the MCA label, solo and with the group Cabo Frio, were less successful. He later ran the independent label Wilde City Records in Florida. Wilde continued his career, expanding into becoming a professional songwriter. He has written hits such as "I'll Never Break Your Heart" for the Backstreet Boys and "I Wish" for Victoria Beckham. He also continues to record his own songs. Visit both http://www.celerityrecords.com/eugene.html and http://www.myspace.com/eugenewildeofficialpage his official websites.

You
What′s going on
I've waited by the phone
You said you′d call at eight
Well it's a little after nine
Darling you're late
Don′t say
That something′s come up
'Cause girl I′m on my way
And I've got plans for you and I
So don′t say
No tonight
You know I'll make you feel twice as nice
So don′t say
No tonight
Baby come to me let me make
All of yours dreams come true
I haven't forgot
What turns you on
I'll sing you a love song
To put you right in the mood
We′ll get straight to the groove

The right places to touch
To make you want to scream
Anywhere that I desire
To set your soul on fire
So don′t say

...An addictive pleasant melody that sticks in your head day after day... Mr. Eugene Wilde, an extremely underrated artist...
@benjamincarter1884
I agree. I believe when music is like you said "addictive" is because of two reasons. One being , the song isn't mushy. Two , the singer's voice itself
