As a kid that song dug it's R&B hooks into my soul and never detached. I still listen to it at least once a week. Gets the dopamine and endorphins flowing. Makes me wanna dance. And the video is for real. Rest easy.

Anthony Geary who played "Luke" on General Hospital. As a kid I got addicted to watching stories because of mom, grandmother, and great-grandmother. The thing about Luke & Laura was super controversial even for its time: he rapes her while "Rise" from Herb Alpert plays on a soundsystem. And then she ends up marrying him and they become, like, soap couple royalty. Every time I hear "Rise" I think of that scene. And in real life Anthony Geary was gay. Quelle surprise!

He was the flat-topped chief meteorologist at KHOU and director of the National Hurricane Center. If you’re from the upper TX Coastal Bend, you know. Thanks for keeping us informed, Dr Neil.
