I tell you folks, it’s over for us on this planet 🌎 with being so fake and artificial……it’s a shame and that’s why we are so disconnected as a society. All we need is what’s real and the truth!

      @richardbenjamin99 2 года назад +9

      As a 51 year old audiophile, you learn to listen to the entire arrangement in a song. The way Jam and Lewis wrote and produced this 1983 #5 Billboard Hot Soul Song had so many underlying musical arrangements going on. The Minneapolis Sound was certainly different from virtually everything on the radio at that time.

  • @jamesdavis7017
