Do you remember in an earlier post when I talked about Hall and Oats' "I can't go for that (no can do)" and said that I thought it would make a good sample
( Read more... )
Ah, I thought it had been sampled by more than De La Soul, but I didn't have any hard facts...
Beyond the beat not being too bad, I sincerely can't stand the lyrical structure of the song. :P Or it could just be the phrase "No Can Do" that bugs me...
By the way, if you are wondering who I am, this is Gary from High School. :P
Ha! Gary, I was wondering who that was. Your comment inspired my research. The song has been sampled by the likes of the notorious b.i.g. and 2 live crew. it has also been covered by Brian McKnight and Donny Osmond.
Is that you in your icon? the mime thing is pretty scary.
do you remember what we were doing this time last year? I had just started taking notes for the novel, you wore that fabulous dress, and we got drunk in a mall, and then on a rooftop with the git fiddler. moral of the story: I MISS YOU!
That was hilarious. And once again, I am so sorry about trying to set you both up with losers. Jess, you should come visit us and we can all look fabulous and get drunk... just like old times!
I remember that... although I think if I had heard that song I might have been as helpful as wikipedia. I still think someone should remake "Maneater."
wasn't there one other thing you thought you invented too?
