(Luther Vandross, Marcus Miller/Sam Cooke)
Roll back the rug everybody
Move all the tables and chairs
We're gonna have us a good time tonight
Everytime that we meet
We skip and we dip to the beat, Yeah Yeah
What in the world could be better
Than getting together
The last time we had a party
It ended when the sun came up
That's why your mama told you
That you couldn't go out
Stay in the house
[Chorus:]
Bad boy
He's gonna sneak out tonight
He's gonna tip by her window
'Cause he sure wants to get out and dance
Everyone's here, let 'em all in
The chandelier downstairs has fallen
I know it's hard toresist
This is the party no one wanted to miss
But if you don't get home on the double, boy
You're going to be in trouble
I hope your mama don't look in your room
'Cause if she does she'll be here soon
Boy, she's gonna be mad
You're a bad boy and you've got it bad boy
Boy, say goodbye to your friends
'Cause it's gonna be a while til you see them again
[Chorus]
Everybody's swingin'
Dancin' to the music
On the radio
Having a party
Everybody's swingin'
Dancin' to the music
On the radio
You can't go
[Chorus]

Luther Ronzoni Vandross Jr., noto semplicemente come Luther Vandross, è stato un cantante e compositore statunitense nato a New York il 20 aprile 1951. Considerato uno dei più grandi artisti soul di tutti i tempi, Vandross ha dominato le classifiche musicali degli anni '80 e '90 con una voce potente e melodie irresistibili. Iniziò la sua carriera come sessionista per artisti come David Bowie e Chaka Khan prima di lanciare il suo album d'esordio nel 1981. Il suo stile vocale, caratterizzato da un registro profondo e una tecnica impeccabile, ha influenzato generazioni di cantanti soul. Alcuni dei suoi brani più famosi includono "Never Too Much", "Here and Now" e "A House Is Not a Home". Vandross ha vinto otto Grammy Awards durante la sua carriera, consolidando il suo status di leggenda del genere soul. Morì nel 2005 all'età di 54 anni.

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
