I can’t remember how I initially stumbled on this song – but
it happened it a couple years ago when I was at corporate grind job #1, and my
life wasn’t the same for the next few weeks. Friends and I would joke and quote
it constantly, I’d use the lines on my wife, it was great. The 80’s beat,
falsetto voice, and the “and him” lines made it a go-to song, and the spoken word
that starts around the 2:20 mark make it a classic. That being said, once I saw
the video, it was OFFICIALLY GAME OVER. The video perfectly captures the song,
and they go hand-in-hand like music video’s rarely do. Anyway, I was doing some
yard work the other day and listening to the local 80’s radio station, and when
this song came on, words can’t express how stoked I got. If you have never seen
this video (or heard the song) – please, do yourself a favor and check out the
video (posted after the jump). Shout out to Oran “Juice” Jones, a forgotten
legend.
