Lisa Lisa & the Cult Jam - I Wonder If I Take You Home (1984)

"I Wonder If I Take You Home" is a song recorded in 1984 and released as a single in 1985 by Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam with Full Force. Originally released on the label Personal Records, the then-obscure song was licensed to CBS Records for a European breakdancing album, and then it was released as a single in the United States on Columbia Records after the song received heavy play from club DJs who had imported the album. "I Wonder If I Take You Home" reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for one week in June 1985; it peaked at #6 on the R&B chart; and it reached #34 on the Hot 100. It also charted at #12 on the UK Singles Chart. The single was certified as gold in the U.S. by the RIAA. Since its release the song has become regarded as a mid eighties dance classic, and one of Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam's signature and most recognizable songs.

Its chorus has been interpolated in the Black Eyed Peas 2005 hit song, "Don't Phunk With My Heart", Fabolous's song with Lil' Mo entitled "Take You Home" & in the Angie Martinez single "Take You Home" featuring Kelis. The song has also been sampled by Kylie Minogue (in her song "Secret (Take You Home)"), Pitbull (in his song "I Wonder", featuring Oobie), R&B singer Paula Campbell in her single "Take You Home," which garnered much airplay on urban radio-stations around the Baltimore-DC area, and in the Junior Mafia featuring Aaliyah single, "I Need You Tonight". In 2010, singer Adrienne Bailon and rapper Ghostface Killah covered the song as, "Take You Home", which is the lead single off her yet-untitled debut album .
