Trivia
Full Force's "Bowlegged" Lou George said the producers were listening to the Queen of Motown, Mary Wells, when they got the idea for this upbeat love song. They combined Wells' hits "You Beat Me to the Punch" and "Two Lovers" and came up with "Lost In Emotion." He told Fred Bronson, author of The Billboard Book Of #1 Hits: "We didn't steal the riffs, all we did was get the flavoring of it. We have a xylophone and some bells... because back in the Motown days they always used those simple instruments. They used real tambourines. The xylophone that you hear is a real xylophone. What we did was put it through on AMS, which is a computerized keyboard. If you listen to the end of the song it sounds like an I Love Lucy-type thing."
