The rabbit hole started with Leo Sayer though...
Heard his songs for years and years, never knew who the fuck he was. Had never laid eyes on the guy. And when I did, I couldn't fucking believe it. I was like whoa, THIS IS *THE* GUY.
I'm not wild about this song, it's a bunch of sappy shit, but that's not the point...
JUST LOOK AT HIM.
Look at his delivery, it's fucking insane.
2:40 during the solo he just stares up with this reverence for the CONCEPT of the song, and the message...
You gotta be WILDLY full of shit to be able to do that. This guy is a TRUE FUCKING PERFORMER.
He's the real motherfucking deal. THAT GUY?? HE'S *THE GUY*... he's THE guy.
He's a TRUE PERFORMER, YO. HE'S THE REAL DEAL, YO.
But what's really crazy about it...
This is his ACTUAL way of talking, his actual public persona...
He's TOTALLY ACTING, totally performing, TOTALLY BEING A TRUE HONEST TO GOD PERFORMER.
He didn't need to do a bunch of crazy dances all over the stage like some Michael Jackson stuff, all he did was deliver the vocals, APPEAR like he was into it and really meant the shit, and his job was done.
He's a VOCALIST. He's a vocal performer.
And he's had so many different sounds too, he's like a vocal actor.
I dunno, that Leo Sayer rabbit hole lead to some shocking revelations about some shit I never knew.
This is my fave, Easy to Love...
OH THAT'S MY SHIT RIGHT THERE SON, FAAAAHHHHHHHHHKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
