She also mentioned New Edition. I was large with the NE love back in the day and would suggest Candy Girl, though Cool It Now was the big hit and is also awesome.
You know, I must really love you guys to let you see my NE love.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Glam, be out and proud! If loving NE is wrong, I don't want to be right!
I would add "If It Isn't Love"

High-five, Vortex! I went and listened to both songs after posting and I still love it (esp Candy Girl). What a great bop!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Nina Simone, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See, I was thinking Silk.
Edit: Dag, this song still gives me the feelings. [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Nina Simone, too.
She is definitely in the mix. Probably more than once.

The end credit sequence of David Lynch's Inland Empire is a totally unrelated scene of cast and crew having a fabulous time grooving to that song. After what came before, it somehow became the most uplifting thing I've ever seen David Lynch pull off. So random and so great. I don't know what she would have thought of the rest of the movie (which is the most difficult thing Lynch has done since Eraserhead) but that end credit sequence was like a joyous random video of its own. I think she might have grooved on it.
