 A year later, younger brothers Ernie Isley (who played the memorable guitar solos on the song and co-wrote the lyrics), Marvin Isley and their brother-in-law Chris Jasper left to form Isley-Jasper-Isley while older brothers Ronald Isley, Rudolph Isley and O'Kelly Isley continued on under the "Isley Brothers" name.The song has similarities to the Earth, Wind & Fire song "Devotion".The song was covered by R&B singer Aaliyah as "Choosey Lover (Old School/New School)", in 2 styles to make up track 6 on her 1996 album "One in a Million", with the "Old School" section very closely resembling the original before transitioning into the "New School" section, which features more of a hip hop beat and feel to match the contemporary feel of the rest of the album.
