I thought he was saying a sequined phone, like a cell.
mmmm, I'd like to see someone in a sequined thong. Could be a bit uncomfy I suppose.

Who could help not be in a good mood with this music? I still feel a bit foul I suppose. Tired of where I am, no news yet about the future. I was getting quotes this morning for insurance for me and family from Blue Cross. Pay so much to get so little. I'm quite confused about annual deductible and out of pockets and maximums. aaarrrghhhhh.

I emailed the potential employer with a salary request and start day and I'm waiting to hear.

TEDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :D  :D

I once dreamt I was gathered 'round an upright piano with Rosie O'Donnell and Ellen DeGeneres singing this song.  No need to examine that one for meaning.  This was one of the songs I first learned to program in diner-top jukeboxes in 1976 or 1977, along with "Love Will Keep Us Together" -- as I just happened to be telling someone at my 12:00 lunch meeting.  (I left out the Rosie & Ellen deets.)

BOSS (Best Of Soul Spectrum) goes to Bill Withers and "It's Gonna Be a Lovely Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay" (hold that "a" for 14 seconds).

But I admit I actually prefer the early '90s knockoff version by S.O.U.L. S.Y.S.T.E.M. featuring Michelle Visage, enough so that I actually bothered to put those obnoxious periods and caps in their name.

They sounded troublingly like Michael Jackson on that one.

And now Loofa samples the "Good Times" lick?  How old is this one?

You know, in hindsight, Whitney's "Greatest Love" doesn't sound so oversung after all.  At least, not compared to what we heard in the ensuing 20 years (can you believe her debut's that old?).

WOOO!  Gloria reaches out!  (I have a re-recorded version of this that sounds even better, surprisingly enough.)

Reach out, I'll be there; Gloria Gaynor. Never heard her do this.

On the ONE, I should think.  A very nice job of taking the Parliament formula of repeating chants in various permutations, and putting a glossy sheen on it.

Understewed but still enjoyable Gap Band, "Why You Wanna Hurt Me."  The masters of hitting it on the one.

Edited to correct title: it's "Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)," according to the DJ and my Gap 12" comp.

I should have known you'd ask.  MM sounds good on this, but what amazed me was that, after not hearing this but once or twice in the past 10+ years, I still knew Ms. LaBelle's fills over the coda ("I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone") by heart.  Apparently I can lip-synch this more effectively than I've ever wanted to.
