Get Up (Whirlpool of Love) [Eric Duncan Edit]

Edwin Starr

Okay, this is the last one for now, I swear. Scout’s honor.

This is the first song I heard play, I think, when I first walked into the 5th anniversary Portola Despacio extravaganza last Friday. I had to procure a ticket through Reddit, wading through a series of scammers, but made it in against all odds. Had to change my flights and move a lot of things around to make this happen, but it was 100% worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Also this is relevant because we were recently talking about Edwin Starr and how he is best known for his song “War,” which is a cover of a song by the Temptations, which I had no idea of until that post.

One song per day. Two hundred words or less.
