    • @gregd6022
      @gregd6022 5 лет назад

      way to fast tempo.. .completely destroyed the "groove" of the original.. but it's typical to do that to appeal to a wider audience.. slow BPM is indicative of funk which was look down upon back then, too "black".. wasn't until the 90s that mainstream caught up (and that's not from a google search ;) ).

Dear Stevie and wonder called Mr Wonder with those exquisite lips, vocal dexterities and vocal controls ...

Dear Madam Re-Re Aretha (very true ... through thy music we shalt be "JOINED TOGETHER FOR ETERNITY" ... if not be "ROCK SOLID" ... because that's just "WHAT IT IS"!!!) ... Dear Cassius Clay a.k.a Muhammed Ali ... with that voice of his that causes effects that are best left undesribed for the sake of being family-friendly ...

Dear 'Jackson Quintet' (talented childhood phenomena of Joseph !!!) ... Dear Ray and Mr Charles a.ka.

RUNNING THROUGH MY BRAIN" Lena and Ms-Madam Horne ... Dear Melba and Ms-Madam Moore ... Dear chic Chi-Lites who deliver songs based on real emtotions as opposed to fantasies ... and design their own clothes ...

    These were the days when female entertainers were classy and tasteful and real. They were not over painted over eyelashes ,over breasted half dresses and just
    Plain over the top and men looked like men. These entertainers got buy on talent and not by twerking and cursing. Oh for the good old day when people had
    Respect for them selves.
