Song of the Week

"I Just Don't Want to Be Lonely" - The Main Ingredient
This version is a performance of the song probably 30 years after it was originally recorded when all the members of the group look a lot older, grayer and fatter than they did in their heyday.
But the song holds up even if this version is a little too stylized for my tastes.
Watch for three key things here: 1) the great use of horns 2) the lead singer who might look a little familiar to you, it's Cuba Gooding Sr. 3) when he "forgets" the words and says the wrong lyric.
