woman vocalist 1981 or prior
starts with back up singers: Flashback several times
Lyrics:
Flashback
It's a flashback
heartbreaking flashback
a mind bending flashback
I told myself before
I told myself it's over and done
but night after night he comes
ooh he's creeping like a pet on the hunt
I threw all his pictures away
but somehow I still see his face
seems that I just can't erase
the memories of my past mistakes
I keep on clearing my mind
I think of better times

Hi! I'm not sure but I think you may be talking about IMAGINATION, the same guys who sang "It's Just An Illusion." I got both songs in a Cd in my car; I need to go check.
Quick comment: I think the singer was actually a guy with a high pitched falsetto voice.
Hi JOL,
could it be FLASHBACK by ASHFORD & SIMPSON? A great song by this dynamic soul duo.

Hi,
no, it is not the ASHFORD & SIMPSON song - I hear it and the lyrics are very different. The other song I can remeber that repeats the word FLASHBACK is the one RICARDO mentioned on his post, recorded by IMAGINATION - do you know this track?
Peace,
zeca azevedo
and it's definitely not Imagination
I see a record titled "Flashback" in the Billboard R&B book by a C. M. Lord (Catherine Mitchell Lord). It peaked 1/9/82--so it must have been released in late 1981.
Wild guess--could this be the one??? :???:
"Lost inside adorable illusion...."
