PLEASE CLICK ON THE PIC ABOVE FOR SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL |
Before Lionel Richie become super-commercial and decided to take a solo ride, The Commodores (think "Brick House," "Machine Gun," "Easy") performed a wonderful, soulful slow-dance ballad that just knocked me out. It was so good, so pure, that all of us incapable untrained, shirt-opened-to-mid-chest non-dancers could ask a girl for a dance and just melt into the crowd on the dance floor -- and if we were truly lucky, to melt into each other with minimal steps and maximum hugging.
Dancing was an excuse. The Commodores made it easy.
The vocal harmony was artful, subtle, and cascaded throughout the entire hypnotic, almost worshipful song, with its loving sentiment. It moves like nectar through a sieve. The tasteful synth dubs just punctuated the pure beauty of melody, flowing smoothly with it, helping to build it. Oh, Baby!
There were just not enough slow-dance songs like this disco era classic. It was a break from sweaty calisthenics and gyrations to just hold someone close... It's amazing how one young man's heart can beat such different rhythms depending upon the circumstances: From explosive to breathtaking.
You know the best feeling in the world? I might --- It's feeling someone you love's heart beating against your chest as you hold that person close with no space or barriers between you.
