curtis mayfield, "move on up!" i really need to hear this right now!

i love the percussion in this song. some mix between latin jazz and a marching band.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Chaka! "I'm Every Woman". Not to be confused with Whitney's version, "I'm Every Coke Whore".

Mmmmmmmm... Johnny Bristol!

Yay -- the REAL "Hands" make an appearance!

"Mornin' Sister Oreo"? WTF? Is he singing to a cookie or commenting on the insufficient blackness of his breakfast partner?

I thought Whitney's version was "I Did Every Woman."

Hang on in there, baby!
