Collage was an American R&B band, best known for their crossover song "Romeo Where's Juliet?".
Career Collage's debut album Do You Like Our Music?, released in 1981 by Solar Records, was produced by the Whispers. Their next album Get In Touch was typified by the change from disco/funk elements found in the first album to boogie-influenced urban music. Before Collage's departure from the music business they also released album entitled Shine The Light, which also features "Romeo Where's Juliet?".
The bands popularity came with the release of "Romeo Where's Juliet?", which was a moderate hit in the United Kingdom. The single reached number forty six on the British pop chart and number 49 on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart.
Four members of the band (Larry White, Lee Peters, Richard Aguon, and Ruben Laxamana) later wrote the song "I Want You," which was featured as the lead-off track on the Whispers' 1987 hit album Just Gets Better with Time.
