i bet in the next 6 months jason derulo will stumble across this tune and think, let me take this song talk rubbish over it and buy a new Bentley no one will ever know im such a smart guy now wheres that auto tuner ?
Besides the great beat and his vocals being on point, what really makes this song one of the all time greats is the positive uplifting lyrics. This song makes you feel good and it makes you want to go for your dreams!
Wow...music like this is from a by-gone era! What has happened the state of good soul music? Today's junk on the radio is mere noise compared to old school!
Had this on tape for years but worn out now .We ase a group of frends taped mike shafts last radio show on picadilly manchester im sure some will remember that that guy he is the best.i am trying to gather all them songs together again put them on c,d and give them to my mates who was there on the night we recorded that show . yung boys stoned out of our heads.good days
we all will have 12 bore shotguns just to pop down the shops with,
if you as much as even think about talking to a women you'll be locked up for 12 life sentences.
and they call that "progress",
well count me out i want to go back to alldayers , soul weekeders, jazz funk, rare grooves, a time where music was so much better than the dirge being piped down our throats these days.
Never judge a book by the cover; discover the Soul Brother with the Mecca Don, workin brunette to blonde, How many Edison Con when I respond in full black, with us havin the Vernon villains back to back. PETE ROCK IS A BEAST. GREAT SAMPLE
man...some1 could refreak this again and we'd still dance to it. something about that bass that just makes u move. granted, my intro to this song was Doug E. Fresh, but when i found out what it was, i see why they used it.
@12abu12 So true, I've forgotten how good the music was in the 80's. 1979-1981 was particularly good I've counted at least 50 All-time hits during those years.
@12abu12 dont say that....i hate when people proclaim negative stuff...if you want the music to be good again then believe it can be that again..hell join a band if you have to and make it happen

@razenzo The sad part is you can take what you just said and replace Jason Derulo's name with the name of almost any "artist" today.

sunday alldayers at the cricketers,
this takes me way back to a simpler time where beer prices didnt rape you.
you could chat to women with out being accused of being a pervert,
bouncers on the door would just say "in you go mate" instead of waving metal detectors in your face and doing full body searches for knifes and guns.
its a shame how many things and attitudes have changed in 29 years.
