Produced for Diana Ross by Barry Gibb for the album "Eaten Alive" (1985) Sometimes love takes some work as demonstrated in this classic song:

"...Don't give up, give up on each other, back where we started, no love to hold us down

I'll never give another, anymore than I gave to you..."

The moment at 1:49 - 2:00 when the music cuts out and her voice is completely

a capella for a few moments is genius. It emphasizes the emotion in the song and the strength of her voice.

I want you to be, a story for me, That I can believe in forever
