I am dancing all over the house!!
Also, I just happen to notice last night that Itunes has a very decent collection of JB for 6 bucks. I already have all his stuff loaded, but for those that do not, this is a great deal.

Edited on Sat Dec-30-06 03:20 PM by fortyfeetunder
he's rocking...
His last conversation with JB, reflected JB said "we need to clean up the music"...telling information-- regarding the use of certain words in urban music.
Spoken like a father to his children.

26. I sure that Corporate News will not show it like this again |

It was so good, from beginning to end.
Maybe CSPAN will have it. If somebody finds out, please let us know.

19. Faux and MSNBC's loss IMO |
|
They're making a huge mistake not showing this.
People are sick of the MSM celebrating death and killing, they'd much rather celebrate life.

21. I am still in shock that CNN made a decision |
|
to show it!
I think they must have heard that MJ would be there or that the "wife" would act out but so far ~ everything is "Up Tight and Outa Sight!"

20. I've been watching for a couple of hours now. Thank you, CNN! |
|
No commercials and they have stuck with it.
America would be different today if we had let people like Jesse and Al lead us instead of the Neocon gang.
The message is clear - we cannot go backwards any further.

27. I really hope CNN covers the rest of it ....... I think they said ...... |
|
they were going to get back to it. My tv is on mute until then. Anyway hope CSPAN has it scheduled later today or tomorrow on tape. ALL DU'ERS SHOULD SEE these services considering what's been going on in our world the last 24 hours. Okay ..... one more RECOMMENDATION from somebody to get this on the Greatest Page where it belongs today. Come on ..... somebody, anybody .... the Godfather of Soul won't take no for an answer! God bless James Brown. Peace. :) :kick:

Thanks CW. My mother and I watched today and it was awesome. I was proud of CNN for broadcasting this. My mom is a 72-year-old white woman, born in the south and loves James Brown. We both enjoyed this very much.
