That song "rocked" so much that you forgot who sang it! The Nilsson version of "Without You" is my favorite. I think he's one of the most underrated artists ever.

Freaky.
agreed! And don't forget the "lost weekend" that lasted a year when Yoko kicked John Lennon out and he stayed at Nilsson's house in LA.
I dig the Commodores but this is my favorite R&B group of the 70's. The great voice of Philippe Wynne fronting The Spinners. "Love Don't Love Nobody".

It's the song not the artist.

I'm just an old schooler. With some exceptions, music was better before MTV & video. Ironic that youtube & video can bring some of it back.
