:wow:




Now, I'm craving your body, is this real
Temperatures rising, I don't want to feel
I'm in the wrong place to be real
Woah and I'm longing to love you, just for a night
Kissing and hugging and holding you tight
Please let me love you, with all my might

Reasons, the reasons that we hear
The reasons that we fear
Our feelings a won't disappear, ooh
And after the love game has been played
All our illusions were just a parade
And all the reasons start to fade

:mjcry:

EWF said they're always surprised when people choose this song as a wedding song b/c it's actually about a one-night stand.

Side note: I just got put on a EWF bass project. I'm like, "No, really...what project are you putting me on?" Some songs aren't too bad (my mom was born on the 21st night of September, no shyt), but others (like Boogie Wonderland) make me want to take up a different instrument entirely. :sadcam::mjcry::bryan::sadbron:

(My hand to God, the first time I played Fantasy w/o a mistake, I broke down crying, thanking God that He made me a bassist. Easy enough song, but some CRAZY-ass random riffs.)

I sometimes come across a lot of opinions and articles about how the Beatles were such great song writers and I always felt they were overrated.

Around the time I made the thread, I happened to be listening to EWF and...

And were these articles written by Cacs?:usure:you should know better. According to some Cacs Elvis still the black mans style Presley is the greatest musician of all time.:mjlol:

sometimes I hear their music when I'm riding or "in the clouds" and i get choked up. Ish be so beautiful and sung so damn well....mmmmm! Cats were innovators and just so damn good at what they did....LOVE their music

If you went to an HBCU - any HBCU - EWF was MANDATORY. They were famous for some out-of-nowhere time signatures (beat changes). Couldn't be sleep playing EWF or your ass would be lost dinnamug. When Maurice died, a lot of band members went out into their respective parking lots/football fields and started playing their music.

Speaking of which, ever hear CAC bands playing EWF? This is so bad, my mom threatened to change her birthday to September 22nd.
