SOLVED: Help, early 90's soft reggae/lovers song.

Hi, I'm trying to find out the name of a song that's I've had in my head for ages, think it's from around 1990 to 1992.

It's kind of a lovers/soft reggae/soul track and has a similar bassline to Colour Me Badd's, I Wanna Sex you up minus the piano bit.

The singer is male and has a similar voice to a popular reggae artist called Sanchez and reggae artist Lukie D. The artist voice sounds abit like Lukie D singing a song called, No more for me.

This link has a sample of Lukie D's song, No more for me which is not in track 14 as listed but in track 6 . http://www.tradebit.com/filedetail.p...9733-be-strong.


These are the only words I can remember from the song I'm trying to track down. After the intro which is dominated by the bassline and trumpet riff, the lyrics start saying something like:

''Hey what's happened to your energggyyyy, ther's enough love for you there's enough for meee.


The main chorus goes something like, ''Stand up for your rights, (brother man), must be a way somehow, don't give up. (Nothing like Bob Marley's)

All I can remember I it used to play on kiss 100 fm in the stations early days.

Thanks in advance to anyone if they can help identify this song.

311 - Amber ?
Cultura Profetica 13 - Get Up, Stand Up ?

Nah not any of those song, but thanks answering.

Forgot to add it has the same tempo/rhythm as Colour me badd's I wanna sex you up.

WOW Thanks, that's the one.

Dammmnnn, I had no idea it was by Maxi.

How did you know it was this song, was it the lyrics I posted or the general discription I gave?


Thanks again Claybricks, you're a Saint.
