Earth, Wind, and Fire slows the tempo down in "Reasons" and brings a soulful feel and the message of love. Regardless, it was still one of the biggest slow songs of the soul and funk scene, and was played numerous times in the clubs at the end of the night for one last slow dance. Like most Earth, Wind, and Fire songs, and most songs in the funk and soul scene for that matter, the song is catchy with a plethora of hooks. Yet, the group keeps their trademark horns and rhythm section, and the all important funk bassline. This exemplifies why Earth, Wind, and Fire were so influential to so many other genres of music, and why they were one of the biggest artists in the funk and soul scene.
