@popspelledpdouble: 40 yrs ago- The song that ended up #3 on the year end Billboard Hot 100 for 1986 was Klymaxx with ‘I Miss You’. See story below..#80smusic #80sthrowback The song was written by keyboardist Lynn Malsby who was going thru a real life break up with a member of the band Lakeside. The song was originally written for lead vocalist Lorena Shelby. However, on the day they were scheduled to record the song she could not make it to the studio. The band asked bassist Joyce Irby to step into the vocal booth to test the track out. Her performance was so raw and perfect that they kept her as lead for final release.
