The Ghetto You doin' what you wanna do
A portrait of poverty from the inside. His voice carries the specific gravity of someone who has seen the ghetto from both sides. The arrangement walks like a street past its prime.
Donny Hathaway released it in 1971. George Benson covered it in 1980 on "Give Me the Night," smoothing the block without leaving the neighborhood.
I got all my sisters with me
1979 Blood and chosen family unite in celebration. The speaker declares solidarity with her sisters. Together they are unstoppable and complete. The bond between them transcends any obstacle. Love and loyalty define their connection. She will never walk alone. Family means everything.
Wade Wilson gets cancer, gets an experimental treatment that leaves him disfigured, and becomes a mercenary who breaks the fourth wall like a conversation with the audience. Ryan Reynolds waited a decade to play this role right. Wham!'s 'Careless Whisper' scores the opening credits, the sax setting the tone for a film that refuses to take itself seriously.
The song about infidelity becomes the soundtrack for a man with nothing left to lose. Deadpool is a comedy routine that involves violence.
