Dang, who IS THIS?  Seems like it should be the Jackson 5, or the Temptations, or Sly and the Family Stone, but the voices just don't sound familiar.

ETA:  I see it's the Chi-Lites.  Not their normal sound, I'd say.


Where the fuck are people singing this kind of material today?  They need to start singing louder than the coke rappers ridin' dirty.

Replay BOS to Ringo's "It Don't Come Easy," which kind of summarizes the past few days for me.  Too many 14-hour workdays endured and upcoming.  And too bad Ringo was proven wrong about peace being within our reach.


Mondegreens don't come easy:

"I don't ask for much/I only want a crust"

"This rubber vine keeps growin' all the time"

Both of those made perfect sense to me when I was 16.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
