Absolutely 80’s Friday Forgotten 45: Chaka Khan

Every Friday afternoon on the Forgotten 45 at 3:45 we send you into the weekend with a song you can hear again Saturday night at 9 on Absolutely 80’s with Nina Blackwood. Today we go back to 1984 for Chaka Khan’s “I Feel for You”.

The song was a #3 hit and the biggest one of Chaka Khan’s career. The song was blocked from #1 by Wham’s “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go” and Prince with “Purple Rain”. Ironically, the song “I Feel for You” was written by Prince and was included on his second album in 1979.

An MTV and radio staple of ’84, check out the video for “I Feel for You” today’s Absolutely 80’s Forgotten 45.
