    Here today, to comment on the Four Tops’ signature song because the last of them, Mr. Duke Fakir has been called home to the recording studio in the sky at the ripe old age of 88. RIP Mr. Duke, I know that concert up there must be great.

      This is a wonderful example of what real music sounds like. These are real musicians. I grew up not just with the Four Tops but with listening to Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Supremes, Little Richard, The Jackson 5, The Beatles, Petula Clark, LuLu, The MaCoys, The Rolling Stones, The Who. I can keep going on but I'm sure I'm boring you good people and I'm sorry.

    When I was very little, my Grandmother made a bunch of home videos of me from the time I was born to the time I was 3 years old. This is the song that plays in the background of one of them. The reason she stopped is because when I was three, my father nearly killed my mother in a drunken rage and was deported.
    Every time I watch those videos and see my father smiling while holding me, I think of how different my life could have been. That little boy was so happy. I looked like I was enjoying life. I kind of had to. I was three. But even if I cry while watching them sometimes, thinking about how hard that little boy's life came crashing down, I also feel loved. Because there are still people out there who genuinely love me. Even if it's stupid, this song reminds me of my childhood. Little three-year old me, and all the love that kid had for his family and the world around him.

    Growing up we had one of those singing fish on the wall and it would sing this and being 3 years old and Danish I didn't understand the words being said but I loved it and memorized the vocal sounds being made.
    Now that I'm 750% older I finally decided to check out the actual lyrics and it's like discovering the song again, I love it. It's almost weird suddely understanding the lyrics.
    I hope music like this makes a comeback.
