If either you or your dad aren't familiar with Robert Flack's The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face...gotta give it a listen!

I've avoided listening to to anything by him somehow, not on purpose just never pressed play on anything or heard anything organically. I have to say, I like his tone of rapping reminds me of a mix jadakiss and Andre 3000. The song is very harsh, but then so is 'why can't there be love' (for a love song especially) . So for me the repetitiveness of such a harsh sound was too much for me to ever listen again haha, however at 2.32 a kind of synth sound comes in and lasts all the way to the end, makes it sound like an awesome anime soundtrack, so, if anyone made a song song from those last 40 seconds that would be great. Look, I tried! and my son would be proud that I tried a Tyler the creator song, that's all I can ask for 😄

Also, that Aretha track I also know, great arrangements and wonderful vocal performance! I haven't heard the other tracks. I will leave the Stevie and Heatwave tracks in case my dad might want to show me them for the first time on the channel. However, I did just check out the Dee Edwards, and I am blown away! At the track itself, but also because it is sampled in a song that I used to listen to all the time when I was 15 or so, it's called "Deathcamp" by Tyler The Creator. Check it out! We also might have to do a Stevie album in full on the channel, what do you think?

2022-06-02 01:18:34 +0000 UTCKai.. some homework for yous 😃 ... The Isley Brothers, footsteps in the dark... Heatwave, boogie nights...Dee Edwards, why can't there be love....Aretha Franklin, until you come back to me...Stevie wonder golden lady! I might get shot for saying this but Stevie wonder was better musically than Michael Jackson. I only realised this as an adult. But the Stevie albums hotter than July and songs in the key of life are hard proof. Enjoy the delve. X
