No waffle today, just a quick one because I've left this late. Today's song is a Smokey Robinson song, "I Second That Emotion." Reason for me choosing this: because it's a bloody great song. However, I'm not giving you the original Smokey version but a cover which I really like by 80s loonies Japan. Now, I really liked Japan (I still listen to David Sylvian, he's solo nowadays), and I really like this song, and they did it well so it's a good combination.

Finally, before I give you the song, if you are too young to remember the 80s or you lived in Outer Mongolia at the time, you're going to laugh at these frankly shocking new romantic haircuts! Once you've got over your giggles, listen to the song properly.. it really IS worth it.



Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart

Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart

Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart

Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart

Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Marvellous, marvellous.

Now thats an good song & even a better group....Brilliant
