Penned by Tom Snow (who helped give Melissa Manchester her biggest career success), 'I don't care what the people say' is lifted from her 1983 LP 'Emergency' but despite many finely crafted pop songs: both ballads and mid tempo tracks, it did not provide the singer with a worthy follow up to 'Hey Ricky' and 'You should hear how she talks about you'. Dionne Warwick had recorded this song a year earlier on her 'Friends in love' album, under the title 'More than fascination'. I prefer the Melissa version more, as it is perhaps more slickly produced and is more anthemic.
