"Breakaway" by Millie Jackson

Millie Jackson is an R&B singer/songwriter from New Jersey. The entertaining and unpredictable artist had a string of minor hits through the 70s, her most successful being "Hurts So Good," which landed at #24 in 1973. "Ask Me What You Want" was a close second, landing at #27 in 1972.

"Breakaway" surprisingly never charted - it's a catchy pop tune with some funk and attitude. Why did radio pass this one over back in 1973?
