Sometimes in life, even the best of us lose faith in our swagger. This is only natural, as the tides of emotion are forever in ebb and flow. But when I catch myself questioning my swagger, I turn to Farley Keith, aka Farley"Jackmaster" Funk, who in the year of my birth (coincidentally... OR IS IT ) laid the seeds for my self-swagger-coaching by recording "Love Can't Turn Around" with the sublime Darryl Pandy on vocals.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Darryl Pandy's myspace describes him as "the round mound of chocolate sound." The greatest overlap of rhyme and descriptive accuracy ever to grace the internet.

I love this song because it is impossible to stay sad when it's playing. And this video is the perfect pick-me-up! Look at Darryl! Look at him BRING IT in that green sparkly sweatshirt and gold necklaces. Ain't NO ONE gonna break his stride! His aura is just exuding confidence, how can you watch this and not feel more confident yourself? Darryl knows he's fly, isn't it time you knew you were fly too?
Also I would be remiss if I didn't bring your attention to the Lifelike remix of this song, which is even MORE amazing because it ups the bass and the buildup, two things I think you can never have too much of if you want to lose yourself in the music. Special attention should be paid when he stops the drums to slowly bring up the vocals at 1:30 and then SLAMS us back into it at 2:03. Pure. Gold.
