When it’s cold outside…

Cindy Brown pointed me to this funny video.

Arctic Chill in LA

Because it’s -11C/13F outside, who are you holding?

If You Think You’re Lonely Now – Bobby Womack

I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight

And I expect that might be the whole world

Because everybody needs something or someone to love

When it’s cold outside who are you holding?

You know, if y’all don’t mind I’d like to talk about this woman of mine

She’s always complainin’ bout me never bein’ at home

But when I’m down broke

She’s tellin’ me about the things that her girlfriend’s got

What she ain’t got and she wants me to go out and get em for her

But girl, I can’t be in two places at one time

If you think you’re lonely now, huh

Wait until tonight, girl

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’ll be long gone

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And you’ll find another man that’ll treat you right

(If you think you’re lonely now)

When I ain’t there to rub your back

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Just remember I made it a long fact

And when the skeletons come out of the closet

And chase you all around your room

And the memories sail round like a ghost

And that’s a matter of fact, no joke, ah

If you think you’re lonely now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Oh, wait until tonight

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I’ll be long gone

(If you think you’re lonely now)

And you’ll never find another man that’ll treat you right

(You just wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

You think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait, wait, wait until tonight, girl

Oh, ain’t it funny how the tables turn

When things aren’t goin’ your way?

But when love runs out and the pain walks in

And settles for a stay, ooh

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Lord, help me, I feel like I wanna testify

(Wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Girl, wait until tonight

(Wait until tonight, girl)

If you think you’re lonely, lonely now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Oh, you just wait until tonight, girl

(If you think you’re lonely now)

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You see tonight’s the night when the needs come out

When your needs come out to breathe

And you toast the stars and there ain’t now way you can sleep, ooh

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I feel like I wanna testify this evenin’

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’m lonely, cause I know I gotta leave you, oh, girl

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I just can’t take no more

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Ooh, hoo, hoo

(You just wait until tonight, girl)

Ah, girl, you just wait

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you got problems now, baby, you just wait

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Too far gone

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Like you’re runnin’ out

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, babe

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You say you’re a little lonely

(If you think you’re lonely now)

But everybody needs somebody to love

(Wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

It’s good that you know that you got somebody that’ll stand by your side

That’ll build you up when you’re fallin’ down

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And you had that someone, baby

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Cause I’ve done my time

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And it’s your turn now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait, wait until tonight

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’m tired, tired of this same old shuck & jiving

(Wait until tonight, girl)

It’s been too long

(If you think you’re lonely now)

You think, you could start all over again, it’s been too long

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You think you could start it just one more time

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Victim of Love (Live) – Charles Bradley

The emotion that Charles conveys in his music is amazing. There’s a documentary about him and what a tremendous story it is. From IMDB:

Charles Bradley: Soul of America (2012)

Starting off on his 62nd birthday, Charles Bradley: Soul of America follows the extraordinary journey of singer Charles Bradley during the electrifying and transformative months leading up to the release of his debut album “No Time for Dreaming.” The 74-minute documentary feature will premiere at the SXSW 2012 Film Festival in Austin, Texas. Despite being abandoned as a child, a period of homelessness, the devastating loss of his brother and constant poverty, Charles never gave up on his life long dream to be a professional singer. With the help of producer and Grammy-winner Gabriel Roth (Daptone Records) and musician Tommy Brenneck, Charles moved away from the James Brown covers he’d been performing for nearly half a century and focused on finding his own unique voice. Earning himself an opening spot on tour for Sharon Jones, the biggest artist in the Daptone stable, Charles delivered the most impassioned performances of his life. Coming up during one of the worst economic downturns
