Barry White in general

espite the best attempts of my girl friend over the last six years I have not yet been able to bear to listen to Barry White. The music is soporific nonsense with neither the speed of real dance-able music nor the interest of a proper melody. The words are the worst love-sick drivel you will here since you accidentally over heard two 13 year olds in love talking to each other. A classic being, "take off your brazier, my dear".
