I got yanked back to my late 70's St. Louis childhood so hard I called my mom and begged her to buy me some short shorts and roller skates.miscelenioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04969293220147953362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14169925.post-69470305362908290022013-05-23T13:08:00.223-04:002013-05-23T13:08:00.223-04:00Think about it, maaan.

Stevie knows this.<br /><br />I always thought "As" was called "Always." I think Stevie meant to call it "Ass," but the guy doing the album cover misheard him.odienatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926978706604468636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14169925.post-28949591806259456462013-05-23T12:17:13.534-04:002013-05-23T12:17:13.534-04:00A trillion words have been written about Stevie, b...A trillion words have been written about Stevie, but leave it to you to find something new and personal to say about that nasty ol' blind man.<br /><br />Never knew the title of "As." "Always" is what I assumed it be. Even "Until" would've been better.<br /><br />The way you write about some of his stealth-freaky songs, he could have recycled that weird title by adding another "s."<br /><br />"I was wrong about it being a mistake, though. Stevie does indeed say “sumptin" in that lyric, because whatever was in that chick’s love had transcended the boundaries of proper spelling and come back Black and Ebonic."<br /><br />^There was a girl whose love made me about as eloquent as Leon Spinx doing a post-fight interview, so I appreciate that one, bruh.Steven Boonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533736956366847765noreply@blogger.com
