I remember when it was first released...it was still durng the cassette tape era. I bought it immediately when it came out. And I always listened to the radio and watched the video channels to see/hear this song. It was massive when it was released. The introduction is amazing. Even today when I hear it on the radio (which is very rarely  ), I want to get up and jiggle  ;D They have a great selection of hits. Runaway (my personal favourite) Love and Devotion One more time Automatic Lover (call for love) I always hated the rapper in it. So cheesy and lame the lyrics. I always bought the single to get the no rap edit. |

Their rapper was awful. I loved this song though. It's was my favorite dance hit of the 90's. It was out forever too. It spent like over a year on the pop charts. It also got 11 weeks at #3 on the Hot 100. I remember every wedding or whatever festive party type whatever I went to it would be playing every time.

I loved Come And Get Your Love and Runaway.... hmm, this song, not so much. I remember buying the album and playing the heck of it until I couldn't play a couple songs. I sold it 2nd hand some years back... LOL... I miss it now!  |

I sold it 2nd hand some years back... LOL... I miss it now! There are some cd's I would never sell. I very rarely play Real Mccoy music, but I keep it as a momento of those great early 90s music |

I love it. The album named after this song is just so superb. Anytime I listen to their music, it just makes me yearn for the days when dance music was popular on pop radio.

OMG! Ah!
I was just blaring this an hour ago and I love it.
I ran to my sister and asked her who sang it and what it was called.
I guess she was correct!
Also, before I asked her, I was trying to find it on this old 1995 Dance Party CD... and there was a song by Axel F on it!
I didn't even know that band/group/artist(?) existed prior to "Crazy Frog..."

I didn't even know that band/group/artist(?) existed prior to "Crazy Frog..." Really? "Axel F" is originally taken from the soundtrack to the original "Beverly Hills Cop" movie. Eddie Murphy plays Axel Foley, hence the name of the song (not the artist). It's performed by Harold Faltermeyer. In 1995, Italian outfit Clock covered the song, adding some horrendous rap. It was a worldwide hit, although it was never released in the US... thank God! I like "Another Night" but could never stand "Runaway". It was criminal that their best single, "Come And Get Your Love" was completely overlooked, barely reaching the Hot 100's Top 30. "One More Time", the first single from their third album of the same name, was also overlooked, and it's one of their best songs, produced by The Berman Brothers and Tony Moran (when he was still doing good dance music, not the crap he does these days). |

^^ I have the video for this on my computer but it's totally different. Does anyone remember exactly if the video above was the actual US video? I don't.

I loved most of these type of songs when they were out, you couldn't pay me to listen to them now though.

I liked this when it was out. It was a bit overplayed though .I just don't get why there has to be a rapper in songs like these. Just let the chick sing!
