Gee, we could really use a GEICO ad here.  VHM2 to the faux-British Rockwell Gordy.

yeah, I would have appreciated this a helluva lot more if Geico hadn't clubbed this song to death like a baby ring seal.

So is that Micheal Jackson on backup - or just a rip off?

it's really him -- he and "Rockwell" (Berry Gordy's son) grew up together, more or less.

It was Michael himself, doing a solid for the Gordy family.

Yes, she's been doing well w these sets.  Despite my griping about AL, I've never thought she lacked musical taste, but she should take  a cue from Frank Zappa sometimes: "Shut Up And Play Yer Guitar Records"

They were so cute.  Jane is a hottie.

Fully agree. None of them looked like a bag of armpits, but I was sure warm for her form.
Let's get right to it.

I could have flipped sides for Belinda at this time - I liked her with a fuller face - but I was much closer to crushville with the Bangles.
