@8misterpilgrim8 not to mention his obvious misuse of your in place of you're. If he did go to "grammer" school, they must have cared more about his cheque clearing than their academic standards.
classic tune from a time when people wrote music, wrote their own lyrics, played musical instruments. Now we're in a time of cover version after cover version and lip snching or glorified karaoke singers on the telly. For once its true, they really DID do it better years ago.
@1969JohnnyM shush with your close minded comments. even if you wanted new music thats similar to this it exists. raphael saadiq makes new music and kills it. if your going to try and talk shit on my generations music you will get your ass handed to you. i know all bitch!
@lorimerj - yeah i'm really frustrated, i'm frustrated when people cant write properly and think by showing how uneducated they are that makes them cool. What the fuck is, "its tight" mean ? I suggest you go to evening classes and do some english language classes.
@1969JohnnyM god damn your dumber than i thought. dude im not trying to be cool by not caring about my grammer online this isnt the god damn SAT, and you fucked up a sentence. "what the fuck is, "its tight" mean ?" first off, how the hell dont you know what that means. second you put the word "is" where "does" should be. SO what have you learned here? 1. your a complete idiot, 2.you hate kids opinons, and 3. your a total and complete idiot.
@lorimerj and (4) you've got a problem with older people and (5) i've got better things to do. Also dumbass if you read the sentence again the way the word "is" is used insinuates a question whilst " does" would mean more a statement of fact. Some of us in this world actually passed exams etc. Bye bye ass hole.
@1969JohnnyM naw, most of my friends are older than me. and hey! look what ya did. you did the thing ive been doing, and youve been bitching at me for. grammer. "dumb ass" is 2 words technically but you did it as 1 funny how this game works huh?. i may not have been honor roll in highschool, but at least now im not sitting behind a computer at work hating my life and wishing i was cool. i partake in the best things in this world. skateboarding, cameras, and weed.
@lorimerj ah well at least you've got some style as i too like weed although i hav'nt skateboarded in a while but i used too, i'm now into bikes. You can go further in a shorter period of time and who does'nt love speed. Anyway life's too short to squabble, have a good life and be happy. Slainte mhaith !
@lorimerj oh and not being a spazz but i went a lot further than highschool as you call it, i take it your from the USA, i went to a grammer school. Happy skateboarding !
@1969JohnnyM Wait, you know that Jackie Wilson didn't write the music or the lyrics to "Higher & Higher", didn't play any of the instruments, and the 1960s music scene had a much higher rate of cover songs and ALL televised music was lip-synched on variety and late-night shows. So I'm not really sure what you're saying, but nothing you said there is true in the slightest for the point you're trying to make.
@theskull42 Actually that might be the way in certain countries but others like say Europe until more recent years would'nt let it on tv unless it was live, also the music scene then had LESS cover versions.
@theskull42 of course there were songs written by other people but they were then performed for the 1st time, now we have covers of covers passed off as their own material, oh and Jackie Wilson played piano + guitar although he's known primarily as a singer.
Yup, I too found this song because of Ghostbusters 2 Lmfao. I was a kid when it came out and when this played in the movie I instantly fell in love with it. I'm 37 and my parents brought me up on excellent music. That's why I'm one of the only white guys who sings soul music like Jackie and Bill Withers (another amazing performer). Thanks dad and mom I love ya.
@Brooklynmario Haha ! : ), you're of course RIGHT !, except for the fact that, if the old gal in NY harbor heard just a few bars of THIS gem, she'd probably initially start out with a few moments of toe tapping, after which she'd immediately commence totally full out break-dancing her fine French derriere off ! : )
@B'mario So in other words, friend, "she might start walking" is probably significantly something a major understatement, IMO : )
Long live the memory & all the fabulous recorded tunes, of the great Jackie !, who was taken all too soon from us, at just 49, in 1984, after haing suffered a massive heart attack on stage, 10 years earlier, while performing in Dick Clark's traveling show: I understand he never fully physically recovered after that.
If you don't at least bob your head to this song, it's safe to assume you have no soul.
