Thanks to After Elton for the heads up. The legendary Motown group The Temptations have released their 49th and latest album entitled "Still Here." Track 2 "Change Has Come" is fabulous. The opening chord sings about diversity and accepting everyone regardless of sexuality.
The lyrics are:
It's time to stand up, regardless of your race, creed or sexual preference.
A change has come. Either you get aboard, step aside aside of get left behind.
I don't about you but I woke up this morning with anew sense of pride.
I felt that I could do anything that I put in my mind.
There's another line later about marriage. As I said, amazing, especially considering the group's age and target demographic. I see dance floor remixes in their future just in time for gay Pride ... and a whole new generation of fans. Listen WHEN YOU JUMP ...
Listen to entire CD at AOL ....
BRAVO BRAVO!

This has the power and energy of the social commentary songs of the late 60's/early 70's
