@Kauwhaka It proves only that you have no idea what disco is. There is nothing about this song that can be called disco. It's an R&B song with vocal phrasings that are reminiscent of Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye with a modern twist on the harmonies of vocal groups and a call-and-response chorus. Not...

@AkuaRising I found out that this version was the one that was shown and marketed prominently on The Playboy Channel when it first came out. There is an edited version that was shown on mainstream TV channels.

A great song from Ray Parker Jr. and crew.

@bssb1979 Interesting, considering D'Angelo and I are roughly the same age. And there is a difference between being influenced by artists and imitating an artist. D'Angelo does more than sound influenced by Prince -- he's singing songs in the vein of Prince, he's covering Prince songs, he's hirin...

@kewanw16 Rudolph Isley retired and became a minister. He hasn't been a member of The Isley Brothers since 1987 Smooth Sailin'" album. Given that I didn't say anything inaccurate, what part of that did you feel you needed to correct?

@MrShaneVicious A personal attack would be calling you something derogatory. I questioned your reading comprehension and the fact you seem to be argumentative just for the sake of being argumentative. And the reason why I questioned your reading comprehension is because it seems we are somewhat o...

@getkristan So what should The Time sound like? They are a funk band with rock and pop elements to their sound! And it's not like the band cannot do other sounds -- just listen to the hundreds of songs Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis produced, or Jesse Johnson's music -- but I'm not expecting The Time ...

One of my favorite "Soul Train" songs. Classic sophisticated funky groove from The Whispers.

Ironic someone calling another person a "pussy" over something insignificant. That's what this woman on this video did -- how well did that work out for her?

At the risk of a flame war, this is an example of why a lot of people don't like dealing with black women in general. Unnecessarily confrontational, bitter, full of attitude for no reason, loving and creating drama. These women are more violent, extreme examples but to a lot of people this is how...

@Musicvegan01 The most logical name would have been Flyte Tyme. Not only was that the original name of the band before Prince brought in Morris Day and Jesse Johnson, but Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis own the name "Flyte Tyme (the name of their production company and record label)." Plus, anyone fami...

@peterpiessens Michael Jackson' "Off the Wall" came out in 1979. This album from Alfonzo came out in 1982, about six months before MJ's "Thriller."

And for the Prince comments: Artists don't work in a vacuum and most are going to be influenced by other acts. That said, there is a difference between having a musical influence (to which Prince has claimed and been compared, ranging from Jimi Hendrix to James Brown to Joni Mitchell) and what Th...

I'm not expecting everyone to be James Brown experts, but it's a little surprising to me read quite a few people didn't recognize The Godfather of Soul and one of his biggest hits.
