OMG nzoz....you are a champion!!!! I'm not getting any work done since I found your library of hits. I have loved this song since I was 8 years old (in 1975), and to finally be able to hear it on here is fan-freakin-tabulous. The video used does not take one single thing away from the song.

Thank you, thank you thankyou so much for loading all the classic music from my generation. I'll be back again and again and again.

@hellagood1967 Can you say : "Dumbed Down"?

[walenski2404]

There's nothin' like a song about prostitutes that won't bring tear to your eye everytime! Good Times, slack arses...

[walenski2404]

Is it wrong to say that this guy is a little twit and that he is going to burn in the lake of Fire for all eternity forevever and ever, Amen. (or is it just me?) Your feedback on the subject is most welcome.

God damn, so many wordy comments. The only thing that didn't make this song good and I loved it from the time I first heard it and I always will, was the artist.

id much rather listen to this music from the 70's and 80's than the horseshit they play in this day and age which has no soul-no rythm and are one hit wanna be wonders which isnt worth the hair out the crack of a homeless mans arse....this music is what music is all about..soul and rythm

[JRMOOING]

One of my favorite songs ever...  Great head of hair too.
