Okay, I need to know your opinion on the Iconic Classic Bop that is Aaron's Party.

every once in a while, I still think back on “open house?” “yeah, that’s what the flyer said” “I didn’t put up flyers” “WELL SOMEBODY DEDD”

(sorry I’ve been quiet y’all I’m a PhD student in musicology and I haven’t had the chance to troll the pop archives just yet)

(if it’s any consolation I just wrote a paper on how Rick Astley proves that classical music theory isn’t good enough to describe why certain musics are valuable)

it was so unnecessary to bring out Stevie Wonder at the end I love it

[y2kmusicvideohell]

I remember that the radio version didn’t have the weird break to the 18th century court of friggin Louis XVI or w/e and not liking it one bit

I Just Learned What Was Happening In The Song "Asereje" And I Honestly Can't Believe It

The whole time it made sense.

Holy shit this song contains multitudes
