That same early 70s era of R&B/Motown/Soul spawned some classic, including this one by the Spinners, which came out the same year as Didn't I:
and we can't forget the O'Jays either:
What music do you love?
- Thread starter soypsubbeseam
- Start date
All over the map. Sinatra, Bennett, Perry Como. Beach Boys, Mamas and Papas, The Doors. Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Poppy Family, and Manilow. Rush, Meatloaf, Phil Collins, Reba, George Strait, Leanne Womack, Merle Haggard, and Willie (of course). Celine, Laurie Darmon, Lara Fabian, Bocelli, Sade, Culture club, Roxy Music, I just love music, but truly eclectic in my tastes. Even Al Green and Teddy Pendergrass (awesome date music imho)
Lately i’m pretty much into 70’s & 80’s classics & some Neil Diamond, whom i actually saw in concert three times. I decided to get myself some Bose speakers & other audio equipment & installed some disco lights in my bedroom & turmed it into a homemade discoteque! Lol. I spend my afternoons going back in time & cranking up the volume! Now i’m gonna do the same thing with my living room & upgrade my current home theatre system & add disco lights. I have an 80” high end LG 4k UHD tv which i use to watch live concerts i own on 4k bluray so i’ll put my setup to good use!
if you get to South Florida, you need to go to this place, good night John boys in Delray Beach. A true disco playing the Bee Gees, Donna Summer, etc.. crowd starts at 21 and ends at 81 or so. Literally people dancing with canes!
This is one of the best songs and music videos ever made.
Socially and culturally just as relevant now as it was when it originally came out, in fact, maybe even more relevant now.
Just rewatched it. Relatively "young" Rudy Giuliani is wild, he was mayor of New York at the time in 1999. Also, the guy with the Trump for President sign had his wish granted I guess, twice. And Michael Moore directing the video shoot.. honestly, the world seemed crazy back then but compared to now things were way better.

Weren't you in the other thread saying "The agent who shot the woke lesbian that tried to run him over..."?

I changed a lot in the last 27 years since I first heard that song, went from a poor kid that had almost nothing to someone who can afford almost anything. Took a lot of hard work and persistence, it changes you and your perspective on things.
None of that changes how relevant the song is today though.
And those woke leftists aren't kids. They're adults who never grew up and live in a delusional fantasy world.
Nothing wrong with actual kids raging against the machine, it's a good thing actually for them to challenge norms and conventional wisdom.
Lol this guy doesn't realize he's a part of the machine now.
Brother, we all are. The important thing to realize is that you have a choice about the kind of cog you want to be.
Unless you're trying to be 'The Mother of Dragons' and break the wheel.
Good luck with that.Anyway.
A long time ago when I was complaining about how unfair the world is, somebody told me to stop crying like a little bitch and grow the fuck up.
Some of the best advice I ever got in my life.
Giving me flashbacks to my 20s, hanging out with the art-school kids. They're playing at Club Soda in April. I might have to go.
They catched my attention too. Pretty much every event next year are sold out.
They are also have success in France.
Over 1M views on YouTube Kexp broadcast so they seem to get viral.
If you don’t have tickets right now, good luck. Your best chance would probably be Festivoix at Trois-Riviere.

I thought I was done with current day NIN, then they do this. Nine Inch Noize - Trent Reznor, Mariqueen (his wife), Atticus Ross and Boys Noize.
They performed a bunch of NIN remixes at Coachella. I had no intention of seeing NIN live again but I might have to check out Nine Inch Noize if they tour.

im not a big fan of boys noize but this collab makes sense somehow
I went the NIN show a couple of months ago, I had seen them a couple of times before and I couldn't have asked for better. The performances keep getting better (and were good to being with), the setlist was perfection, the light show was polished, the sound was even good at that stupid stadium.
Stadium? Wasn't it at Bell Centre? I've been to a couple of concerts there, and the sound's been great.
Lucky for you seeing NIN. I've gotta go to one of their concerts one day.
