Sly is the best !!!!!!

Sly should be in every conversation about bass players. He could really pop them strings to full effect. You got to love the song. Creative genius. It is like an audio version of a 3-d picture.

@chris the lyrics are written like that because that is the name of the actual song. It /isn't/ for letting me be myself again
clarkbar3268 4
Yeah, who checks the lyrics? Dyin' young is hard to take, livin' out is harder.
@Chris - That's actually the way the lyrics are written.
"falettinme be mice elf agin" - Are you serious?? Who checks over the lyrics?!
"for letting me be myself again".

Christ...
Janet Jackson sampled this for Rhythmnation ! woah. Just learned that.
I gotta get back into being part of a "busy horn section" ~ been too long :(

Thank you falettinme be mice elf agin!

=iii=<
Amazing song...but make sure you check out the equally amazing and powerful lyrics: "Youth and Truth are making Love; dig this for a starter; dying young is hard to take; selling out is harder!" ...And, yeah, I was front-and-ce n t e r at Woodstock at the age of 18, and Sly remains one of my inspirations for making my own humanistic music.
Chillin in Camden, NJ with my boyz comes to mind... The good ole days!!!
lesjenk
the real funk n stein
naww...ole Sly wanted his soul back, and he got it. Read the lyrics again. Also look up "The Skin I'm In." another one about what ole Sly had to go through to get where he is.

God, Peace, Love, Joy
