I shouldn't put this here, but it fits the subject. There was a band from the '80s called View From The Hill that had one of the most under appreciated albums in my collection. "No Conversation" was the only single from the LP and I always thought it was a beautiful song. Somehow, when I went to digitize it on my computer, the cassette had developed pops like a scratched record, which pissed me off to no end.

Yeah, cheesy video, but that's how it was in the early 80s.

And Soulster, here's another great example from Ray Parker, Jr. who had all kinds of cheating songs [[remember "Jack and Jill"?).

"Please Return Your Love to Me" - The Temptations

"Don't Take Your Love From Me" - The Manhattans

"Didn't I Blow Your Mind" - The Delfonics

[Jerry Oz]

The Manhattans' "Kiss And Say Goodbye" is a great one. Also, Billy Paul's "Me And Mrs. Jones" and Z.Z. Hill's "Cheatin' In the Next Room".

How about a song about a guy who's not cheating? I almost missed this on the Manhattans' There's No Me Without You LP but once I played it and listened, it became my favorite song on the record:
