I love this man. Whenever I put him on, I could just picture very clearly in my head, like kids running down the streets, jumping into a puddles of water and in a very Hollwood manner, stash my brolly aside and dance like no one is watching on the streets. But I'll just leave that fantastic imagination of mine to the four corners of my room, where I can dance in my underwear and feel absolutely happy.
My favourite track would be "Another Day"taken off his new album, Jim. A little bit of blues, a little bit of jazz and that old school motown feel to it, it's a modern day take on classics by The Temptations and Marvin Gaye. It truly is brilliant, and could make a depressing day as such, better.
If you love "Another Day", you would definitely love "A Little Bit of Feel Good" and "Hurricane". It's that foot-tapping, addictive sound that will make you want to drink some wine and get some high, with the songs playing at full blast on your stereo. Akin to KC & The Sunshine Band's "Play that Funky Music White Boy", these old-fashioned motown tracks circa 1960s, littered with a whole bunch of soul, is my choice of medication to chase my blues away.
And slow tracks such as "All I Wanna Do" has got that intoxicating quality that makes you lose your way around his voice. It is like one of those cheesy tracks that comes on in the movies, when the lead actor and actress take their first dance as lovers and they look so annoyingly happy and in love, you can't help but to get affected by it too. And as much as I hate to admit it, you know and I know, we always go "awwww" at the very sight of yet another "happily ever after" ending. (even if it's another fabricated lie of modern day life..but i'll leave that for another day)
And could this man be any sexier? Good god.
Okay, off to more prancing! (:
