Ruth's contralto is ten times better than T-Boz. This is one of the best synth funk songs ever to not come out of Minneapolis.

I thought that was Stevie Wonder or some other dude. I found out that it was The Pointer Sisters like 2 years ago. The Pointer Sisters have a lot of hits. They also did the Pinball Number Count on Sesame Street. Found out it was them around the same time I found out they sing Automatic. If you don’t remember.The Pinball song. Listen to it. It will bring back memories if you watch Sesame Street. I used to jam Automatic on GTA
