OK, Paladin, I'll give you the R-Man is kind of fun in concert with those giant rubberbands. They ended their show in Tacoma with that -- the place went nuts.
Right, it was a great gimmick, and thats why they call it entertainment !
Some songs just happen to capture a particular "flava of the moment."
Shake your groove thing was a real party record...disco yes !
Stevie Wonder's "I Wish" still ranks as his biggest hit. I wouldn't call that song his worst.
True that, its one of my all time favorites not only was it the flava of the moment Stevie and the band kicked azz.....
Speaking of Lionel Richie. whew ...after his funk period with the Commodores, I was simply disinterested, however as a dancer his "Love Will Find a Way" was a big stepper club hit and I loved it, but then as a Stepper I loved his alter ego Michael Bolton's "Can I Touch You There" strange indeed.......lol.....
It's called reaching the lowest common denominator [[in terms of public tastes!). Simplistic lyrics, a monotonous hook and very unimaginative instrumentation and you have a hit on your hands many times!
Whoa ...Marv you sound like a writer for Dick Clark...ROTFLMBAO !
This thread really reminds me of the way we used to tackle different subjects and exchange musical ideas and information on the old forum...great work guys, I mean it.....
