Ok - catch up time.
Black/Upbeat/Bender Favorites
10.a.: Mark Morrison - Return of the Mack (1996)
10.b.: Bobby Brown - Humpin' Around (1992) - this was an anthem for me when growing up. My parents weren't very impressed with the provocative title but we're liberal enough not to censor what I could listen to. Since there's no chance in hell anyone was picking this, this was a tough one for 1992 because "Games" by Chuckii Booker is a better song - just not as upbeat
11.a.: Chris Brown - Run It (2005)
11.b.: The Four Tops - Baby I Need Your Lovin' (1964) - I like Bernadette, but this is there best IMO
12.a.: George Benson - Turn Your Love Around (1985)
12.b: Ne-Yo - Closer (2008) - my jam
13.a.: Blu Cantrell - Hit Em Up Style (2001) -
13.b.: Major Lazer - Lean On (2015) - one black dude in the group
14.a.: Pharrell Williams - Happy (2014)
14.b.: Outkast - Roses (2004) - One of my favorite music videos too
15.a.: Stevie Wonder - Signed, Sealed, Delivered (1970)
15.b.: The Staple Singers - I'll Take You There (1972)
16.a.: After 7 - Can't Stop (1990) - This wasn't a deep track for me, but I wonder how known it is.
16.b.: The System - Don't Disturb This Groove (1987)
17.a.: Wilson Pickett - Mustang Sally (1966)
17.b.: Billy Preston - Nothing From Nothing (1974)
Phew...don't think I doubled any years or picked anything already picked.
Surprisingly got sniped a number of times since I took some time off here. I had "Creep" by TLC on my short list Eephus.
