If you were wondering where I've been, so has the universe. The radio, it speaks to me. And if you don't know André Cymone, you can look him up. The video remains on trend because it does every trend ever in less than five minutes. And how about a little mid-aughts revivalism? I mean really, The Hold Steady are speaking my language.
The internet could probably use more (read: a lot more) more quasi-autistic slavish devotion to getting to the bottom of things. So I appreciate when I recognize that in others. So when I saw this I felt I owed it to the world to share. This 12" sleeve was posted on AnOtherLoves but neglected to burrow like a hedgehog to the meat of this situation. All surface and no substance, but oh what a surface it is.
What? How many times have I heard this song without the advantage three extra minutes of isolated drum, bass and hand claps courtesy of Sly and Robbie? Work your endorphins to the remix kids, you won't regret it.
