I've always thought I was more about '70s R&B than '80s, but already the nominees are telling me it's actually the reverse.
More accurately, I'm MOST into R&B from about 1976-1984.

it went #1 on the r&b charts (tho yes, it scaled the pop charts first). charting at all on the r&b side is more than some other nominees, like exposé's "point of no return" (even tho freestyle is def part of the r&b realm sonically), can say.
in any case i feel like if the fit seems questionable to people voting, even if they really like the song, it won't tend to get enough votes to place. so there's probably no reason to revoke nominations except for release date.
― dyl, Tuesday, 18 April 2017 16:21 (seven years ago) link
not that charting history means that much anyways. mj's "human nature" also didn't chart r&b at all but today it would certainly be considered more r&b than "beat it" (and is also most likely to be played on r&b stations today).
― dyl, Tuesday, 18 April 2017 16:25 (seven years ago) link
anyways really excited for this, lemme throw some noms together :)
I'm barely keeping myself from nominating Holiday, which is probably my favorite disco ever but the world decided dance-pop isn't r'n'b at some point so whatever. Same with ABC.

In My House - Mary Jane Girls
― Darin, Tuesday, 18 April 2017 18:57 (seven years ago) link
Mmmmmm, I might have to take mild umbrage with the Patrice Rushen, ArchCarrier. The single was released in '79 (and its attendant album was released in late '79, so I'd suspect the same of the single, although I can't find its actual release date), and the info I have is that it didn't chart until 1980. It's iffy, I admit, and yours is the final ruling, but just wanted to put it out there because it's a fantastic song.

Joubert Singers - Stand On The Word (Larry Levan remix)
Even though this is commonly credited as such, the track was not remixed by Larry Levan, and he wasn't even the one who discovered it. We've discussed it in this thread, and Red Bull Music Academy recently did a thorough article on the whole tangled history of the track, and why it's erroneously been thought to be a Levan mix. But the best-known version is not a remix of any kind; Tony Humphries did later re-record it with Phyllis Joubert's choir and mix it, but that version is not as well-known these days as the original.
