The first version of this song was recorded in its entirety over the course of a few hours. It probably took more than that amount of time for them to
track the T Pain part on this. Some of these singers are looked at as goofy now but there is no question about the vocal talents of people like Darryl
Hall, Steve Perry, Huey Lewis, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Kenny Rogers, Cindy Lauper, Michael Jackson,Bruce Springsteen, Dionne Warwick etc. They
nailed that first tune like it was second nature. |
