MJ (on his own)
02.03.03
So I hesitated with this one - should it go under disco, pop, or just pure friggin' genius?
I could put up the obvious MJ tunes. Lord knows I have listened to all of them repeatedly for two decades without yet getting tired of them. This song, however, I discovered much later than I had come to know "Thriller" and "Billie Jean". Michael was already a freak by the time I first heard "Workin Day and Night" But man, this song... it just gets me groovin! You can hear that Michael is just letting loose in every way, especially when he does his little hoots and sighs. I used to play it at work all the time, and I would always notice the customers cocking their heads up and tapping their feet.
This quality Michael. The one I love, anyway.
Groove to it. I dare you to put it on your headphones and to not walk with an extra little somethin' in your strut. No. I double dare you.
Download it here: download no longer available, contact me to find out how to get it.

Angel thought:
I can't get this one, darlin. Is there maybe a filename error?
I've been playing more than anyone's share of MJ lately, in your honor.
lee thought:
Angel - Rargh, you're right. I always misspell the name Micheal. And I misspelled it in the filename. I can't copy and paste the filenames, and you see what it does to me.
Anyway, should be all better now. Give it a whirl.
And dance to it.
And you RULE for playing more MJ. Doesn't it just make you're day so much better?
thought:
Yu know, this seems to be the coolest site I've seen on the web...EVER! Maybe it's just because I find it so refreshing to find a younger person who really digs Al Green....and who can turn me on to MJ once more. I was born in 1950 and grew up on rock &Soul and Western (as in John Denver) . Odessa Rules! (signed) The Strider
lee thought:
Hey...wow...thanks. Great stuff. Nothing wrong with John Denver, I suppose, but between John and Al, I'd choose Al anyday.
I often say that I was probably, in my past life, about 18 in the late 70's. That would mean I died young, because I was born (in this life) in 1979. No matter...I just think that musical appreciation is at its greatest between 17-20, and that I appreciate music of the late 70's more than the rest of it (solo MJ, Al Green, Funkadelic, what have you).
Forget Britney and all the rest...it's all about the good ole days (that I never really saw...)
Thanks for the compliment. It couldn't have come at a better time.
