Calloway "I wanna be rich"





"Cash..cold, thats what I need!"

Both Jeff Lorber and Chuckii Booker on keys. Lorber was on everyones record as a session man around this time, but you can tell Chuckii's on it by that solo just starting on the fade out of the song.

Babyface rippoff "sir Lancelot" is still my cut, but its not on youtube sad

I NEVER liked this song. The album wasn't bad, but this song annoyed the hell out of me. I hate these guys got stuck in the one-hit-wonder category. Their work as writers and with Midnight Star should have made them a bit more relevant.

Huge thanks! Classic video that reminds me of Al b sure's "misunderstanding" video, both in the typically "lets dance down a studio backlot at night" vibe and the fact the lead singers dont seem to like to dance much. Cool choreogrpahy though lol

Even the chants are pure Babyface LOL

How do we know that Face didn't borrow his style from them? They all were on SOLAR at the same time.
