My goodness! His homegoing anniversary came so fast! R.I.P. King David. Your legacy and memory will live on. dc: There is no 'part 2'. I only began to realize that David remade part 1 of 'I miss you'. I don't know if if you're a 70s baby but when a song is over 4 minutes long, sometimes, on the old 45 records, they would split the song as 'part 1' and 'part 2'. I think that's why it has confused some Ruff fans for years, thinking there was another part to this song. On the original 45 version by Harold Melvin and Bluenotes, the second part was just straight 'rappin' (what they used to call sweet talking back in the day). Hope that clears it up.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up. Yeah The Bluenotes second half is the group member talking to his ex lady for quite some time. "Got A New Gig" lol I can't lie, I personally like Ruffs version better. In my opinion Teddy P didn't bring it like he usually does on this recorded version.
