I was doing a crossword puzzle and came across the clue 'Band whose 1999 hit “Smooth” spent 12 weeks at No. 1' I knew that the answer was "Smooth", a great song I never get tired of hearing. I smiled to myself, knowing that now I'd probably have the tune stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
Fifteen minutes later can you guess what came on the radio? Somehow the disc jockey read my mind.
Five years ago today: The Grass Isn't Going To Cut Itself
A classic!
ReplyDeleteI remember when that song was all the rage. I not only loved the song Smooth but the story of how Thomas came to be the singer to record it. He'd been initially hired to "sample" the song so Santana could decide who he wanted to sing it. Santana heard Thomas' sampling and said, "What about that guy" and thus Grammy history was made.
ReplyDeleteI had not heard that story. Thanks for sharing.
