Lyrics:

I like to party, mm-mm, everybody does

Make love and listen to the music

You've got to let yourself go-go, go-go, oh-oh

I like to party, mm-mm, everybody does

You can't wait for the weekend, no, no

To see what you get into

Make love and listen to the music

You've got to let yourself go-go, go-go, oh-oh

Make love and listen to the music

You've got to let yourself go-go, go-go, oh-oh

Make love until the morning time

I like to party, mm-mm, everybody does

A-T-3 178 Oliver Cheatham - Get Down Saturday Night

Get Down Saturday Night was a chart hit for Oliver Cheatham when it was originally released 40-years-ago, and it's been a enduring hit in clubs ever since. Nu Disco had been around since the mid 1990s before getting really commercial and a bit tacky in the 2000s (Daft Punk/Stardust's Music Sounds Better is to blame). In addition to Get Down Saturday Night's perennial club success the track was sampled on many house records throughout the 1990s and used in the videogame GTA: Vice City, so it was only a matter of time before it got the nu-disco treatment. Italian producer Room 5's 2003 version Make Luv was launched in the UK by being used for an ad campaign for a gendered deodorant, and when the single was released every dickhead bought it

AKD the production team comprising of Al Hudson, Dave Robison and Kevin McCord (all members of the groups Al Hudson & The Partners and One Way) had co-written and produced Oliver Cheatham's debut in 1982. They returned in 1983 to deliver Oliver Cheatham's second album Saturday Night, the album's lead single Get Down Saturday Night was co-written by Oliver Cheatham and Kevin McCord

Like many soul legends Oliver Cheatham moved to the UK where the work was, he died here in 2013

Any videos of you dancing in a ski mask also what are your favorite musicians from the 80s ? Please

If you use the #me tag you can probably find me on my zoomies dancing

Though question, i can go for something more classy like Bird of Paradise (Snowy White) or Big Log (Robert Plant) to the more famous bands like Depeche Mode, Duran Duran or Flock of Seagulls (and i raaaan i ran so far awaaay 🎶), to something more energetic like Never Too Much (Luther Vandross) or Get Down Saturday Night (Oliver Cheatham).

And that's why ladies and gentlemen, that gta vice city will always be the best gta game, because those radio stations are just... 🎶

Lyrics:

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin (I)

I'm working, all week long (I)

I dream the days away

I wanna, sing my song (I)

So let the music play

I have to get my kicks, and fly tonight

And when the clock strikes six

On Friday night

I need to blow it all away (I)

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin (I)

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin

I make it what I can (I)

I try, I try

I'm shakin' up my plan (I)

And I get by

I'm saving all my soul and all my pain

So I can lose control on Saturday

I'm gonna blow it all away (blow)

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin (I)

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin (I)

I can't wait, for the weekend to begin

I can't wait

For the weekend to begin

For the weekend to begin

Begin

Begin

Begin

Begin

Begin

Begin

I've got to get my fix, and fly tonight

And when the clock strikes six

On Friday night

I'm gonna blow it all away (blow)

Songwriter:

I can't wait, for the weekend to begin (I)

SongFacts:

"The Weekend" is a song by British DJ Michael Gray with vocals by English singer Shèna. It was released in the United Kingdom on November 1, 2004 and peaked at number seven on the British Singles Chart, topped the British and Hungarian dance charts, and reached the top 20 in several other countries, including Australia, Italy and the Netherlands. A music video directed by Mike Harris was filmed for the song.

“The Weekend” features a sample from “Back at Ya,” a 1984 single by American group Kerr, in the hook that was replayed in its entirety on Scorccio Sample Replays. The title also uses the lyrics "I can't wait for Saturday to begin" from American singer Oliver Cheatham's 1983 song "Get Down Saturday Night", but replaces the word "Saturday" with "the Weekend". Cheatham is accordingly named as a co-author.

Evanston Folk Fest Saturday: 9/7, Dawes Park

Sierra Ferrell

BY JORDAN MAINZER

Every musician I watched on Saturday at the Evanston Folk Fest grappled with, directly or indirectly, what folk music means in 2024. I knew going in, given the prestige of the musical lineup and speakers in the interview tent, that the festival would not be one that casts off "folk" as a mere aesthetic, visual or instrumental. Indeed, even if many of the booked musicians didn't fit the general schema of the folk genre, they abided by its most important tenet: music not just by the people but for the people, independent of level of expertise.

From left to right: Oliver Bates Craven, Ferrell, Matty Meyer, Geoff Saunders, & Joshua Rilko

Headlining the night was Sierra Ferrell, a singer-songwriter from West Virginia whose unique mix of bluegrass and Latin-influenced arrangements (and, yes, wild outfits) have allowed her to garner steadily increasing crossover appeal beyond her initial viral rise. Earlier this year, she released her fourth studio album Trail of Flowers (Rounder), which managed to widen the spectrum of her sound while emphasizing--let alone not losing--her idiosyncrasies. On standout fiddle jam "I Could Drive You Crazy"--Ferrell's proclaimed greatest relationship skill--you can hear crowd chatter from a show she did on a previous New Year's Eve. Such noise was almost perfectly replicated on Saturday, as Ferrell's band (multi-instrumentalist Oliver Bates Craven, mandolinist Joshua Rilko, bassist Geoff Saunders, drummer Matty Meyer) led off with the song's melody to welcome her onto the stage. As she waltzed on, revealing her poofy pink dress and feathered-and-flowered hair, done up like an Appalachian Björk, her fans did indeed hoot and holler.

Ferrell

Likewise, no matter the studio sheen of Trail of Flowers (or "Fox Hunt" being thumping enough to soundtrack an NFL cut to commercial), live, its songs fit seamlessly into a set that seemed intimate despite the large crowd. Album opener "American Dreaming" has found a second life as a song to be played near the end of the show, a crowd singalong due to its catchy melody and commonly felt story of a person unable to sit still. For touring musician Ferrell, who started out as train-hopping, van-dwelling, busking nomad, the only difference now is she can better afford nightly lodging. When performing, her unmistakably raspy voice takes even sharper twists and turns: During "Chittlin' Cookin' Time in Cheatham County", she occupied the shrillness of Joanna Newsom, flutters of Josephine Foster, and barroom gurgle of Tom Waits from moment to moment. Later, during Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee", but in the style of its most famous iteration by Janis Joplin, you half-expected Ferrell to do a Joplin impression. She has the skills, but instead, she made it her own, a true folk singer who can sing a song from the collective consciousness, but not showy enough to discourage others from joining in.

Midway through his solo set, Hiss Golden Messenger's MC Taylor let the crowd know he was going to do a cover of a folk song. "I was a folklorist in my former life, so I feel qualified to play it," he quipped. The song was Grateful Dead's "Bertha", and it received such rapturous applause that Taylor joked he should have led off with it. First, Taylor's always qualified to play Dead songs. His venerable band has been interpolating "Franklin's Tower" into Lateness of Dancers bop "Lucia" for years, and he's beginning to release live recordings on his Bandcamp page at the pace of a certain band that was oft-bootlegged. More importantly, though, at this point, Hiss Golden Messenger has developed a catalog of contemporary folk classics. As soon as Taylor came on stage, introduced by Evanston mayor Daniel Biss, an eager crowd member requested "Sanctuary", to which a chuffed Taylor requested patience, replying, "We'll get there!" As Hiss Golden Messenger studio songs and full-band performances expand in length and sound, they always sound good stripped down, too, from newer tunes like "Shinbone" to favorites like "Biloxi". Of course, it's the biggest treat to hear songs from acoustic masterpiece Bad Debt, an album he'll play in full next month at SPACE. Taylor gave the Evanston Folk Fest crowd a preview of what's to come with "Balthazar's Song", a tune that could make you melt on the coldest day of the year.

Willi Carlisle

And then there was the artist who, perhaps expectedly, most reckoned with the idea of what folk music means, Arkansas-based singer-songwriter Willi Carlisle. Sure, some of it was tongue-in-cheek, asking what an upper-middle-class Chicago suburb was doing deciding what constitutes a folk festival, but for the most part, Carlisle framed folk music as being in constant battle with that which represents an existential threat to, well, regular folks: capitalism, empire, and the patriarchy. Carlisle is a captivating storyteller and musician, reciting his poetry at a breakneck pace and ad-libbing, too, switching between banjo, fiddle, guitar, and a capella. I'm glad he's released a taste of what his shows are like with Tales From Critterland (Signature Sounds), which features three of the many songs he played on Saturday, plus their proper introductions: "The Arrangements", inspired by and dedicated to his and all bad fathers, "Critterland", which came from his attempt to live in an intentional community, and Steve Goodman's "The Ballad of Penny Evans". It was that last one that was the song of the day on Saturday, perfect for time and place. Let's acknowledge the elephant in the room: Goodman's best known in Chicago for writing the song that plays at Wrigley Field after the Cubs win. The crowd at Evanston Folk Fest was likely more familiar than is the average Chicagoan with Goodman's penchant for writing incredibly moving and righteous songs, but for those who weren't, Carlisle's show-stopping version of Goodman's anti-Vietnam War ballad surely gave them the chills. On Tales From Critterland, Carlisle explains how Goodman lifted the melody from a song about slavery, sung from the point of view of the slaveowner, repurposing a great melody for a song with complete opposite levels of morality, an exercise in the evolution of songs. On Saturday, Carlisle simply dedicated his performance to all the Palestinians murdered by a despotic Israeli government. It was a moment that most spoke to folk music's true power, that of "This machine kills fascists" protest, an ability to foresee unfortunately everlasting societal ills, and a dare to hope for a better world.
