Dude's Voice was still strong.
In these times of 80's/90's Retro - what do u play out from this album that works?
Yeah I'm not really sticking to it, I was just listening to this album today and it is really tops. As for DJing, I would never play Bad - works in concept but not in reality. I play:
The Way You Make Me Feel - Killing it with that swing time signature. Liberian Girl - My dude played this last night, throwing "Do The James" over top it on some Ron G shit. Another Part Of Me - Murders the dancefloor on a consistent basis. Man In The Mirror - This is the jam, not really to "play out" unless you throw the "Make The Music With Your Mouth, Biz" drums underneath it. Smooth Criminal - Tripping, biggest song off the LP. A sureshot hit
And you forgot: I Just Can't Stop Loving You feat. Siedah Garrett - my shit, although I would only play this at the end of the night.
I mean, I don't know if I can stand by that, specially since I don't even own a copy of Got To Be There , but I have the singles, and that's close enuff! I just have to put that out there.
