As a kid from the 80’s and a teenager in the 90’s, any song that slightly resembled 70’s disco or adult contempory music was just the worst. And for that reason, this song got thrown onto my own personal dustbin of awful music.
I can now admit that was a mistake when it comes to Michael McDonald’s “I Keep Forgettin.’” This song has a way better grove and flow to it than I gave it credit for. (I mean, Warren G did sample the hell out of it for “Regulate.”) The part that gets stuck in my head is just the first line of the song, and the way McDonald just breaks up the words; a little in front, then behind the beat.
The video is cheesy as hell, though. If you like teased and feathered hair; than have I got a video for you!
