Former band members included David Torres, Reggie Pierre and Remy Palacios. The group has since broken up. The original vocals were never performed by the performance group but rather lip synced. David Torres did sing the Spanish parts after completing vocal training. The final vocal track was recorded by John Minnis, while the demo vocal had been performed by David L Cook.[2] Many believed that Stevie B was the original vocalist of the song, but that proved to be false. The song was written and produced by Joe Granda in 1986.[3]
