Manpower is an album by Miquel Brown, recorded in 1983. Includes the major international hits "So Many Men, So Little Time" and "He's a Saint, He's a Sinner" which peaked at number two and number twenty-nine respectively on the US dance charts, [2] as well as the moderate hits "Beeline" and "Sunny Day."
"So Many Men, So Little Time" is considered by many within the male gay community to be one of the greatest dance songs from the 1980s.[attribution needed] It was included in the 1997 independent film, Kiss Me, Guido and in the 1998 queer coming of age film, Edge of Seventeen.
