I was on the lighting crew for this video. It was shot as part of a music video class held by the CSU Summer Arts program in 1987 at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. How cool to get to see a project I worked on years ago that I don't have a copy of. I believe it was the first music video Bobby McFarrin did. It was the next year that he went mainstream with "Don't Worry, Be Happy."

Casi 4 minutos de absoluto arte vocal....amplitud de registro, falsete, percusion vocal, ritmo, efectos, en fin....un animal. Tengo un video de este mismo tema en vivo que confirma que nada es truco ni montaje de estudio, lo hace identico e incluso lo canta sentado en el piso, con la dificultad extra para la respiracion. Un monstruo total....sin palabras. Saludos desde Uruguay.

How can anybody with ears dislike this music? It's actually made by a person and not a machine. It's beautiful and dangerous because it opens our eyes to actual human potential. Turn off the radio and put in that tape or cd. Nothing compares to actual ingenuity and vocal range.

I first heard his voice in an ad and food fell out of my mouth. Years later he called up members of the audience to sing in a chorus at one of his shows and I shot out of my seat like there was a jet pack in my ass. Fantastic talent,unique in every sense.

Opportunity Came to my door When I was down On my luck In the shape Of an old friend With a plan Guaranteed Showed me the papers As he walked me to the car His shoes Finest leather He said You could wear this style Follow my advice He owned a gun The calibre escaped me But I noticed Straight away It made me itch Carried an address With numbers on the back And an L-shaped Bar of iron What's that for I asked my man With eyes opened And the knowledge in my head And he said Opportunity World wide adventure Money in the bank We did the job The work was so well done No one saw us coming Much less leave But what I dropped Carried my credentials And a black and white Shot of you and me What's that for I asked the cop With eyes opened The knowledge in my head And he said Opportunity World wide adventure Let me take your hand Let me take your hand Opportunity Came to my door When I was down On my luck In the shape Of an old friend With a plan Guaranteed With a plan Guaranteed With a plan Guaranteed
