"I Can't Go For That" - Hall & Oates (Cover by Nicki Bluhm & the Gamblers)
I love it when I'm introduced to something so fascinating as this awesome video that I have to show it off (even if over 1.5 million viewers watched it before me). Now normally I'm anti-cover, but I can't help but appreciate a version almost as good as the original (and one that I actually enjoy more than the original). This was like the time I saw the 5-on-1-guitar rendition of the now overplayed Gotye feat. Kimbra song, "Somebody That I Used to Know" except I doubt this song will flood the airwaves since it's ions old. But...they did bring back the ridiculous fashion sense of the 80's and 90's, so I can't be too sure this isn't going to happen. The only difference is that I'd embrace it because unlike clothes, music gets better with time.
On a different note, I found the title of this song fitting for what I just discovered a few days ago. As some of you may have noticed, Playlist went berserk! My patience has been tested many times, but this by far takes the cake! I log on only to discover that Playlist "changed" its ways and now the thing won't play unless you click on the link. Now, it's not a huge deal but it bothers me nonetheless because it breaks the flow that inspires this whole blog. And inspiration is the driving force behind keeping this blog alive. So, to reiterate, "No, I can't go for that!"
Lyrics:
Easy, ready, willing, overtime
Where does it stop
Where do you dare me
To draw the line
You've got the body
Now you want my soul
Don't even think about it
Say, no go
I, I-I, I 'll do anything
That you want me to do
Ya, I, I-I, I'll do almost anything
That you want me too, ooh ya
But I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
I can go for being twice as nice
I can go for just repeating
The same old lines
Use the body
Now you want my soul
Ooh, forget about it
Now say, no go
I, I-I, I 'll do anything
That you want me to do
Ya, I, I-I, I'll do almost anything
That you want me too, ooh ya
But I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that, yeah
Ya I, I-I, I 'll do anything
That you want me to do
Ya, I, I-I, I'll do almost anything
That you want me too, ooh ya
But I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that, nooo(No)
No can do
I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that, ya
