    My husband was coming home from work one day, listening to the radio. The song comes on instead of driving home. He drives straight to the mall he picks up a copy. He comes home and he puts it on the DVD player and says hon , come in here. I want you to hear something I bought for you.❤. We’ve been married for 48 years.

    Roger Troutman knew how to use the talk-box correctly. He just enhanced the chorus and he proved he can really sing good with his real voice here. Nowadays alot of these so-called artists gotta use autotune to hide the fact that they can't sing.

    Music like this makes me temporarily forget that the world is falling apart around me. When the music stops the heartache is back😢 so much crime, bitterness and hatred. I was born in 1992 but I wish I was a 70s or early 80s baby so I could've enjoyed more of the good ole days in person. I understand that the world is evolving but I'm saddened by the fact that its not in a positive way.

    I showed my then 14 y.o. autistic son that auto tune had been utilized properly back when I was a teen. He was trying to impress a girl with his own words and music, so I pulled out my '80's cassette tapes to help him clear his mundane mind. Our generation tells real stories w/o all the drama of the past 20 something years. I raised both my kids on 80's tunes. There's just something contagious about our generation's music. No matter how young or old ya get, songs like this give light to the darkest of times. We'll see ya soon Roger. Hugs, ~ Covah

    Every time I hear Roger and/or Zapp, there is just ultimate sadness that basically overcomes me! 😞
    You cannot describe Black Music in the 80s without this man, and the band he created! And for me, his music was just a part of my inner existence and overall well being!
    The memories of the music he made and the good times that followed was just so incredible and indelible!
    And to know that his own brother shot him (MULTIPLE TIMES) in the upper torso . . . just pierces my very soul! 😡
    And even to this day --- the sadness still hasn't gone away --- and Roger has been dead for almost 25 years now!
    Gone at the age of 47!
