Imagine Rickles for the next 90 seconds after the cut.

ha!

Subby is a hockey puck.

This is infinitely better than I Just Called to Say I Love You.

Well, i'm sure he never saw it anyway.

Not as bad as Little Richard in Catalina Caper.

Gotta love those horrible beach/dance movies of the '60s.

The PERFECT comment.

Anybody catch Fireball 500 last night on one of the Voom channels. I was clapping along to this.

step right up (pops)

That made me cough up a hairball.

Hell on Earth makes people do stuff?

Shut up, subby. Steve Wonder is a musical genius!

Listen, the song itself is a great song. It was overplayed to hell and back, but it's a very well written, direct song. It also suffers a bit from the dated synth sound.

Probably not enough bitter or snipe in it for the fark crowd.

Worse, it makes people dance to this rotting, filthy, dirty, lude, lascivious junk called rhythm and blues! It isn't just the lyrics, it's THE BEAT! How this beat gets them, 400 teenage girls were interviewed as to why they had illegitimate babies.. they said not just the words, THE BEAT! The fertility ranks of the jungle to have the same beat, incorporated in this modern r'n'b to screw 'em up.
/say yeah! wooh!

when I was in Japan, this song was ALWAYS played in their super markets.


Now I can't go into a grocery store here in the US without hearing MMMBop...

Whatever subby. That track was way better than most pop that came out of '68.

er, '64...

shadowself: This is infinitely better than I Just Called to Say I Love You pretty much anything Stevie's done since "Master Blaster", with the possible exception of "Overjoyed".

FTFY.

Stevie - WTF?

I got yer hell on earth right here!!
tha horra (new window)

Hey they broke music artists in movies then too. Who knew?

Pretty sure I'm seeing Stevie as an extra at the 1:00 mark in the center right. Unless they're another black guy in a long blue shirt, khakis, and sunglasses with the same frame as him standing around.

Though I doubt the director gives a damn about continuity errors.

Stevie shreds it in that. That was awesome.

/FAIL SUBMITTARD!

CravenMorehead: Steve Wonder is a musical genius!

I have all his albums.

/fuffufufufffffillinu... FU*K IT, the good one!

Your mother has a wooden leg with a kickstand!

Guess again. (new window)

But very particularly including "Part-Time Lover."
