Now Give Me Just The Kicks Just For Kicks

Yeah sure it's a bit cheesy but it's equal parts clever and Shad who drops in to say hi is my fave emcee doing the rounds at the moment.

Can It Be I Stayed Away Too Long?

I can't be the only blog out there without a Michael Jackson inspired post, especially considering the fact that MJ was prolific in writing so many themes for young lovers over the years... so here's a little something for y'all.

The legendary Roots crew teamed up with long time collaborator Erykah Badu on The Jimmy Fallon show recently to deliver this amazing tribute to the king of pop by covering his 1972 love themed hit 'I Wanna Be Where You Are'

I Can't Wait For You To Operate

In its original form there's no doubt that 'Sexual Healing' is one of the best love songs of all time. Marvin Gaye has surely played a big part in the world's population increasing over the years and if you were conceived after 1982 it might even be the reason you're reading this post, especially if your parents had a copy of 'Midnight Love' in their record collection.

We all know the original but there have been a bunch of covers over the years including versions by Kate Bush, Michael Bolton, Ben Harper & who could forget Maxamillion! But i really don't think it gets any better than this cracking cover by the Hot 8 Brass Band from New Orleans... BIG bold & brassy!

Oh baby now lets get down tonight!
