Actually, I was jut a kid in short pants when this came out and always found it a bit creepy. Now that I'm a grown up it seems even creepier! I didn't recall him being quite so scrawny either.

If that creeped you out then don't watch the video to 'Don't come around here no more'.

Ok. Remember the song, not the video off hand, but I'll give it a miss on your recommendation.
Anyway, just thought I'd play a tribute to the squawky-voiced, eye shadow-wearing, big-nosed, horse-toothed, scrawny one

a reminder that Motown really did make an enormous amount of quality music. The Tops with Levi Stubbs in majestic form...

Not into Xmas songs but Otis Reddings' 'Dock of the Bay' was among the all-time classic hit singles. Didn't he die in a plane crash shortly afterward or something? Didn't even make it to the '27 club'
