    Need some CHICAGO 80's CLASSIC Artists/titles help!

    Hopefully I can communicate these without confusing anyone with the lyrics but I'm trying to remember the artist of a song called "don't go walking out that door" (is that the title?) that was big in the Chicago scene in the 80's.These are records I have that were previously stolen from me and the labels torn as a result of removing the theif's homemade labels when we got em back (then). Lyrics go --don't go walking out that door (male and female chorus) then the male would sing "you'll be back tonight for more" followed by the backgrounds singing the same line...I still got a lot of woos when I started to play this again but can't for the life of me remember the name of it.

    Another one is a female with background singers saying "dying to be dancin" she sings "I've got to dance,dance,dance...I need it- I want it-got to have it- I've got to dance, dance, dance (chorus background sings "dying to be dancing") this one may be a bit harder to decypher but I'm sure SOMEONE knows and remembers.

    Another is probably easier but states "when the going gets tough,the tough get going" with a John Wayne voice in the breakdown of the chorus saying "You'd better get tough kid" and a wicked piano breakdown thats still killer and reminds one of the piano solo on George Dukes' "I want you for myself"

    Any help is appreciated and I'm sure I'll have more as I listen to these but had these on the top of the brain so far
    Thanks

    The first track may be 'Don't Go Walking Out That Door' by Richard Jon Smith (Jive, 1981).

    The second and third tracks sound like 'Dyin' To Be Dancin'' by Empress on Prelude (1981) and 'Get Tough' by Kleeer, on Atlantic (1980).
