Song of the Month: Atlantic Starr gives Valentine's Day treat with "My Best Friend"

Share this article

    Atlantic Starr is one of the truly great soul music vocal groups of the past thirty five years. They delivered a bunch of terrific dance jams back in the day, but what they may be best known for are some all-time great slow jams like "Send For Me," "Always" and "Secret Lovers."

    It's been awhile since we heard new music from the Starr, but now radio has discovered a new slow jam from the group. The quartet, consisting of brothers Wayne and Jonathan Lewis along with L'John Epps and Melissa Pierce, is shooting up the charts with the beautiful song "My Best Friend," a classic soulful ballad of love that shows appreciation for that person who is something more special than just a lover. This is a song that would be perfect on a wedding day, or, this month, as a special Valentine's Day ode to someone you love.
