That beat is instantly familiar to almost anyone who's heard music in the last 20 years, even if they don't know where it came from. Can someone at least identify on what album it was originally released? -- In Defense of the Artist 16:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC) dizzee rascal and lethal bizzle have used it

That's specious at best. The referenced article says "There are many critics and listeners who claim that Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock's 'It Takes Two' is the greatest hip-hop single ever cut."
So, a nebulous reference to "many critics" is supportive of the claim in the beginning of the article? I'm removing the claim and the reference. 98.213.251.93 ( talk) 04:14, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
the opening of the song when a voice sais "right about now...." i recently heard a techno/house song with the same beat...i have no idea who is it by or what the song is called (although the "it takes two to make things go right" phrase is still in there. can anyone help me out? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.99.185.154 ( talk) 04:33, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
I believe it was actually James Brown singing the "woo" and the "yeah" and not Collins, though the "It takes two..." certainly was Collins. - Team4Technologies ( talk) 21:38, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Why is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas not even mentioned on this site? I think it should be, because this song was in GTA:SA soundtrack. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.143.126.238 ( talk) 22:20, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

It Takes Scoop redirects here, but that song isn't mentioned at all on this page. It should have its own section here, given it was a charting hit in various countries. KaisaL ( talk) 15:15, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
August 2, 1988 is too late - the record made it to Billboard's Hot Black Singles chart May 21, 1988. The RIAA Gold & Platinum certification record lists a release date of Feb. 1, 1988, although their dates rarely match up with in-store release dates. Further research needed.
