Tell Me What's the Word

The word, of course, is Word Up! by Cameo, and it's what I was listening to on Jack.FM in the car. And since who couldn't use a little funk with some power brass on a hot Sunday afternoon, here it is. Yes, chiclets, this is what a lot of kids who used to be your age were dancing to in the '80s.



And yes, that's Geordi LaForge (heh) as the police detective.

I was 14 in 1986, and I did see this video, and let me tell you, I was scandalized. And offended. And I hated, hated, hated this song because it was just about SEX and RANDOM HOOKUPS and I took all that sort of thing Very Seriously then.

Now I just wanna dance to it, and am secure in knowing that it will not in fact corrupt my impressionable young mind.
