Something you can have and hold

"Steppin' Out" was inspired by the excitement of New York nightlife after Joe Jackson moved there following his divorce. The sophisticated synth-pop classic became his biggest US hit, peaking at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning Grammy nominations for Record of the Year and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
The song found a new audience decades later after being featured on the Flash FM radio station in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002). It later reappeared in Grand Theft Auto V/ GTA Online on Los Santos Underground Radio (as part of The Black Madonnaβs set), introducing its sleek 1980s sound to yet another generation of players.

i don't think the band were very refined at this point but that's not necessarily a bad thing, and they certainly made up for it with talent and the raw energy of youth, i still think their debut album is one on their best

#DIDYOUKNOW: Mobula rays have wing-like fins that allow them to launch out of the water, earning them the nickname βflying rays!β
Itβs uncertain why they jump, but it may be to rid themselves of parasites, evade predators, communicate, corral food, or even just for fun.

Farewell to Robert Duvall, who learned to sing his own songs for Tender Mercies (1983) and won the Academy Award for Best Actor, leaving behind one of cinemaβs most honest and deeply human performances. ποΈ

"Steppin' Out" Two Grammy nods. This artist wrote the song and played almost every instrument himself for the recording. The song is about the anticipation and excitement of a night out on the town. Do you remember this 80s hit?

Todayβs Daily Cartoon, by Jeremy Nguyen. #NewYorkerCartoons
One of my favorite scenes. #RIPRobReiner
The world is a colder place without Nora Ephron & Rob Reiner. Sleepless in Seattle is in the conversation for best romantic comedy ever made & itβs no coincidence Reinerβs work in this film gave us some unforgettable scenes. Reiner and Tom Hanks on screen together is amazing.
