The B-side : TELL ME I'M NOT DREAMING (Featuring Michael Jackson) although it was never officially released as a single because of legal difficulties between Michael's label, Epic, and Jermaine's label, Arista, the song did receive a lot of airplay."[6] As a result, Billboard did not include the song on any "singles" chart. Nor, at the time, did Billboard publish an airplay-only chart.[7] The song, however, did register on Radio and Records′ Top 40 chart, a chart based solely on airplay, peaking at No. 6 in June 1984. The song was most successful on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, where it spent three weeks at No. 1 that same June.[8] The song was performed as a medley with some of Jermaine Jackson's other solo hits ("Let's Get Serious" and "Dynamite") on the Jacksons' 1984 Victory Tour.[9]
The song was nominated at the 1985 Grammy Awards for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.[10]
