I can't help but feel so much emotional absence when i hear The Commodores tribute Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson in this perfectly sung/written song. Those huys would be so proud of this. A Masterpiece commemorating masters.
@krewrules New tv shows are introducing young people to this great music by using it in scripts. What a great thing that they can have this experience,all the the great acts from years ago...before the world got so messed up.
First heard this song stacking shelves for a major supermarket on, what else, 'the nightshift'. Only now do I understand the songs subtleties and the fact that the lyrics don't really have anything to do with what I thought they did back them. Regardless, still hum it at the beginning of each nightshift and will be again on 01 Jan 2012 because it is TIMELESS. Thanks for the company on those long nights!
Marvin, he was a friend of mine And he could sing a song His heart in every line Marvin sang of the joy and pain He opened up our minds And I still can hear him say Aw talk to me so you can see What's going on Say you will sing your songs Forevermore (evermore) Gonna be some sweet sounds Coming down on the nightshift I bet you're singing proud Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night It's gonna be all right On the nightshift Oh you found another home I know you're not alone
RIP. Mummy, Daddy, Nana, Papa, Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Betty, Uncle Roger, Uncle Phil, & my brother-in-law's Doob & Jerry. I miss you all, & you are all still loved more than words can express. Some of you I never had the privilege of knowing, but I am truly honoured to be a part of you! Looking forward to the day when we will all be together! xoxo
I remember driving down US 1 from Miami to Marathon Key at 1 am listening to this haunting song. Marvin Gaye's "Can I Get a Witness" was one of my favorites and Jackie Wilson's "Baby Workout" was another.
fa sempre album come pter gabriel che fa sempre ma di rado lcu am di rado loro e altri coe killers e fanno dischi sempre loro fecero questo disco ma fu un successo fanno solo concerti anche se lui ando via loro fecero un recache questa ma essa e un plagio cantano ancora nei concerti non fanno dischi
bel pezzo che fu la colonna sonora e sigla di saint vincent ricordo che c,era un pezzo di antonello venditti centocitta che ricorda molto sto pezzo sara un plagio se ne era appena andato lionel ritchie ando via per lavorare fare il solista gia con diana ross fece truly dopodiche usci il primo e ma sara il 2 dopo anni in cui andi via e tornato ma ormai il successo non ebbe piu ultimamente fa sempre dische
