    Tony was amazing here as usual. I wish Toriano was still in the group, I feel like he would sounded great singing all the bottom harmonies throughout the song. He definitely would've killed all these background parts:

    What you youngsters don’t know is wearing oversized clothes back then was the style, just like the too small, high water, nut hugging suit y’all wear today😂😂😂. Plus Tony was a kid and they probably didn’t have his size. Look at his band mates they are much bigger than him and they all needed the same outfit.....never mind his suit, just enjoy the performance of a short lived music legend! R.I.P. Tony....we still think about and love ya man!
