They asks us to watch and react because you know
our reactions, no telling no telling.
I don't know how am I going to react.

They're glutton for punishment.

That was (indistinct).
I haven't seen the video in a long time.
I didn't remember that.
Never Too Much. Wow.
When Never Too Much, when that song came on,
that's when all the old heads got up and danced.

First of all, not a lot of people can sing
Evelyn Champagne King songs, okay?
She has definitely made her mark in the music industry.
She's got some great songs.
As soon as they start playing old songs.
- You run to the dance floor.
- It's very DJ nights.
- Yo, T, I remember
a story was told that
you went to a Evelyn Champagne King,
you went to see her,
and by the time y'all went to see her,
she was like,
"It's a shame!"
And that was the end of it. You missed the whole concert.
All you heard was. - Thank you!
And good night!
I said.
I was so mad.
You know how on time I am anyway.
- And goodnight. (woman laughing)

- I think Alexander O'Neal's sweater
was a little distracting.
But other than that,
I think that song,
to have a duet,
it was the first duet song, other than Peaches and Herb
we have Rufus and Chaka Khan,
Peaches and Herb, and then
it was Cherrelle.

When the Gap Band comes on you cannot,

In the morning.
Come on, shingles!
Come on! (woman laughs)

Push! Push!
That's my girl, that's my girl!
- Oh hell no! - That's my girl!
Push.
You got to push.
See, I can't push anymore cause my back hurts.
And this was before knees start hurting.
That was the bomb.
Push was the bomb. People don't know that.
And I did backgrounds and I never got paid for it.
But it's okay.
People don't now that I did background on that song.
People don't know that!
- That's right!
(crosstalk)
Listen!
I tricked Tichina to come into the studio with me
and do some background with me on this thing, right?
So she's sitting up there
while I went in the studio,
Tichina, I don't know if you remember this,
Tichina Arnold gets the call
that she's playing Pam on the Martin show.
We forgot about the song,
we're talking about everything else,
we was jumping up and down!
(woman screams)
We was grabbing each other, we fell on the ground.
We were so happy.
Cause that was the moment, T, do you remember that?
- Yo, I totally forgot that.
Menopause took over my brain.
I remember
you tricking me in the studio.
That's what I remember.
- That's the only thing you remember?
- I remember that.
Push.
I was like, "T, I don't sing this low, T."
You like, "You can do it, you can do it."
(woman laughing)
- That's all you remember? You don't remember that moment?
- No.
- Oh my god, it was such a big moment, T,
in our lives, our whole lives changed.
- They did. And why don't I remember that moment?
- I don't know.
- No. I know why I don't remember that moment,
cause you trick me in the studio!
That's the part that I remember!
You know what, Tisha, you ain't paid me!
That's what I remember.
I don't remember ever getting paid
for my background on Push.
I remember, T.
I ain't get paid for that (beep).
- You got paid in love, piece and soul, T.
Love, piece and soul.
- About that.
You and Mona tricked me.
Y'all tricked me!
(woman laughs)
That's why I didn't remember.
- That's the second time,
the second time I tricked you was Don't Ask My Neighbor.
- Don't Ask My Neighbor.
Yeah, Don't Ask My Neighbor, yeah!
That was the other song
you tricked me on.
And then I thought I was doing background on
but I ended up doing, what, doing a duet?
- Yeah.
- I'm still waiting for that money, T.
I ain't seen that money yet.
(upbeat music)
It was really, really great watching that nostalgia.
I just want to thank you all for reminding me
of how old I am.
Thank you. - Yeah. Thanks, guys.
- It was amazing. - And thank you
for reminding everybody that we used to listen
to cassette tapes.
- Yeah. - That was always great.
