Star Time #58: That's My Zone
It's springtime, citizens. To that end, on this week's show we have Donna Summer singing "Spring Affair." We also have Wilson Pickett singing "I Can't Stop," because you can't stop springtime. We also have James & Bobby Purify singing "Do Unto Me," because springtime is when we auto-renew the Golden Rule for another year. We also have Jermaine Jackson singing "Live It Up," because Jermaine's just as much a Jackson as anyone else! You can't tell him that he's not! In fact Jermaine was a Jackson before Michael was, or even Janet, so cut him some slack! Also, other songs.
