The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day

The Blues Brothers, "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love" from The Blues Brothers: Original Soundtrack Recording (Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary: I have ever enjoyed the role-reversal, that in most situations "Joliet" Jake (played by John Belushi, R.I.P.) is the more talkative of the Blues Brothers, but on stage, Elwood (played by Dan Aykroyd) does most of the talking.
"You know, people, when you do find somebody,
Hold that woman, hold that man,
Love him, please him, squeeze her, please her,
Hold, squeeze, and please that person, give 'em all your love,
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress,
Because it's so important to have that special somebody,
To hold, kiss, miss, squeeze, and please…"
