Times Square – You’re Hot (European Version) 1981

“So young ladies, and gentlemen, once you try it once, you gonna do it again”

Back in 1981 when Hiphop tracks hedged their bets by being disco tracks. Back in 1981 when disco tracks hedged their bets by being Hiphop tracks. Back in 1981 before Hiphop was responsible for our childrens upbringing. Back in 1981 when Hiphop exploited a whole side of vinyl for its tracks. Back in 1981 before Hiphop was drum machines and before-before it was loops of James Brown and before-before-before it was people with keyboards again. Back in 1981 when it was people with keyboards.

The bit with the key and horn swells hits all my favourite chords. That’s hot.

“You’re gonna do it again”
