  • good memories with this music of me and my sister growing up in good old east los!!

  • People say I'm the life of the party Because I tell a joke or two Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer, it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears.. I need you, need you Since you left me if you see me with another girl Seeming like I'm having fun Although she may be cute She's just a substitute Because you're the permanent one..

  • I like the classics but I don't think that music these days is crap...it's just a different style. Things have changed and not necessarily bad...at least we can still access this music.

  • Charlie Sheen, Forest Whitaker, and the Green Goblin among others danced to this song while high one time.

  • @MobKnowledge

  • @TheBritishFPS Same!! Ahaa :D

  • @xXOneHotLennonXx awesome! xD

  • I listen gangsta rap and this classics songs, the very very danger music is the music of Lady Gaga OR JB.

  • This kinda music gets me laid alot. Im 24yrs old and most guys are listening to gangsta rap. Girls hear me playing this and they think Im deep and different.... *beng* got cha!

  • good song and absolute classic

  • AlthOUGh ShE MAy bE CUtE ShE'S jUSt A SUbStitUtE 'CAUSE yOOU'R thE PERMANENt ONE..

  • My favourite Motown song by a mile

  • 5 star song no lie

  • Why isn't there awesome music like this nowadays all we have is crappy auto tuned pop to grow up with.

  • @ireallyreallydontkno Smokey's music is timeless, but there's some really good Auto Tune songs too. Check out Fever Ray and Sufjan Stevens.

  • @curtisrunstedler Thanks :) I'm not against auto tuned pop but as that's all I see in the charts it gets on my nerves.

  • @ireallyreallydontkno lets destroy all music and just have only this song..

  • @ireallyreallydontkno there's good music out there, you just have to find it.

  • @fob199 I agree... Just look at Mayer Hawthorne!!! 

  • @ireallyreallydontkno i'm with you bro

  • @ireallyreallydontkno It's because at some point in the early 1980s, music stopped being an art form and was taken over by yuppie f***bags who truly killed Rock n' Roll.

  • @ireallyreallydontkno Well there is one guy bringing back soul music his name Aloe Blacc. Look at my channel if you want to see him sing.I'm so happy that there's still people out there that still loves the good old classics as much as I do. And do you know what's so cool is that I am one of the new generation.I'm only 19 and i can't stand now a day music like rap and pop.Most people don't get it when they come around me and I am listening to the good classics like this. :)

  • Comment removed

  • @ireallyreallydontkno 'all we have' nope.

  • @Thisismytrollingface I was exaggerating but what we mainly see in the media is usually the same genre of music. Of course it isn't 'all we have' but it's just harder to find other varieties of music, it's nice to listen to music like this every once in a while but anyway...

  • @ireallyreallydontkno thumbs up for you son.

  • oldie but super goodie

  • @ireallyreallydontkno top tip. Avoid any record companys that have anything to do with simon cowell and the NME and there you will find good music

  • @ireallyreallydontkno Agreed,...we need some more artists like Smokey Robinson instead of Justin Bieber or Lil Wayne ♥♥

  • Good Music.

  • RIP Marv Tarplin

  • @777Rosebud I agree with you, Rosebud. It's amazing that there are people out there who hide behind their anonymity and behave unnecessarily. I'm sorry he treated you like that.
