Keep On Walkin' (song)


"Keep On Walkin'" is a 1992 song by the musician CeCe Peniston, recorded for her debut album release Finally on A&M Records.

About the song

The song was released as the singer's third single from the album and was her third number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. In addition, the single peaked at number three on the US R&B chart, number fifteen on the Hot 100, and number ten in the UK.
"Special Extended" remix version of the track was later issued on "I'm in the Mood" single release.

Critical reception

wrote about the song: "Though "We Got A Love Thang" fell somewhat short of A&M's pop expectations, this easy-going jack/funk affair from Peniston's excellent debut album, "Finally," proves that the game is far from over. She delivers an assertive vocal that recalls early Teena Marie, while producer Steve "Silk" Hurley tempers the beats with a memorable melody and a fluid sax solo. Way cool for several formats."
