You're leanin' the wrong way, t-bird! The lean tilts to the passenger
side, so's you're almost on your way to laying down on that fine crushed
velvet bench seat...check out "Superfly" if you don't believe me.
The song "Be Thankful..." is one of the cornerstone cuts on Marvin Gaye's
world-changing album "What's Goin' On". There's also a brilliant cover on
Massive Attack's first album, "Blue Lines", and a little-seen video of the
same track.
