If You Want Me To Stay

damn straight, I could do this ALL night!

all of us is a megastar Btw, I took my mothers and fathers to work out Sly and the family individuals Stone 3-4 years in the past on the living house of Blues, and we actually stood there for 4 hours waiting for him to come returned onstage. The gig grow to be meant to start up at 7, even though it did no longer start up till 11 p.m.!! He stored peeking throughout the curtain whilst all of us shouted his call. Later, he walked offstage suitable contained in direction of a music to apply the rest room and get a drink from the bar. classic stuff, LOL.

Ah, hell, I don't know what album it's off of. I'm not going to pretend to be this huge fan and to know everything they've ever done, but that song has been one of my favorites for as long as I can remember. It's just brilliant.

I've heard them twice on the radio in the past week and enjoyed quizzing my teenagers on them :-)

Fave song:
