{1}"Here I Am" peaked at #5 on the U.S. [Billboard Hot 100 Chart] in November of 1981, and remained in the Top 40 for 15 weeks. The song also spent three weeks atop the [Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart.] To prevent confusion, the song was renamed "Here I Am", because originally, it was called, "Here I Am (Just When I Thought I Was Over You)," but the group thought it might be confused with their hit song, "The One That You Love," that contains the lyrics: "Here I am, the one that you love."{8}
