The Jets ~ Rocket 2 U {Extended Version} You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Always hated this version because they removed the original bassline.
You're so glam, every time I see you I wanna slam! | |

^^That's why it's called a remix. It doesn't have to sound like the original. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B.

Classic late-80s jam from their second album interestingly,this song was offered to Earth Wind and Fire for their 1987 Touch The World album but they turned it down. | |

I was just thinking....how about a Jets 'Unsung' episode? Their career came to an abrupt end after this album.I'd like to hear their story. | |

The great Bobby Nunn. I think all the Jets did was lip sync. LOL! Upper persuasion for the lower invasion | |

yeah, the chorus sounds very much as the classic falsetto of Bobby. But the voice in the verses has a lisp, which i never heard in Bobby's own jams.
