hi guys
back in the summer on 1991,i used to listen to a reggae song which was probably released in the mid to late 80's or probably around 1989-1990 the lattest.the lyrics go like'lady,all i think about is you.
lady all i think about you.
even in the morning,you are the first one that comes into my mind
and in the evening you are the first one that comes to my mind.
but i can figure out
why i think of you so much
but i can't figure out
why i think of you so much'
with a killing horn section.the voice of the guy is like that of maxie priest,but iam not that sure for i haven't listen to all of maxie priest'lps

Hi did you ever find the name/artist of this song? I'm also looking for it and your post was the only page I found with it on the whole of google!

The song is called "Lately" from the Natural Ites, album 'Marvellous' track 7 (lp 1987 or cd 1989, CSA CD 23). The lead-singers are J.P. McLeod and Ossie Samms. Ossie wrote the song. Some nice info; w w w.andybrouwer.co.uk/niteslyrics.h t m l

thank you so much for your help brother
