“(I Know) I’m Losing You” is a song originally recorded by The Temptations in 1966.

During the 1980s, on the Dallas, Texas-based Oak Lawn Records label, the song was covered by the group Uptown Girls and transformed into an upbeat dance tune. This version achieved popularity at Dallas’ famed Starck nightclub due to early play by DJ Rick Squillante and became a standard in many U.S. nightclubs, reaching the No. 80 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1987.
