This is a great song. I sing it a lot especially when something foul happens to someone or myself. lol It's a pretty soulful groove and one of my favorite songs from The Wiz after Brand New Day.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

Yes, the groove is nice. An upbeat song with depressing lyrics. lol My favorite from this film though is the Green portion of the "Emerald City Sequence." smile

Mike sounds real cool on here and this is the jam. He sounds laid back and enjoying himself, the vocal performance of the movie version I slighty prefer. Especially the Donny Hathaway esque note at the end. But this is cool to play out LOUD.
