This song is definitely making rounds! It's been the 'commercial' song for sooo many shows....Fashion Police, movies Mortdecai & The Wedding Ringer, NBC All-Star...and I think T-Mobile...it's EVERYWHERE! But...I couldn't be happier...it's a toe-tapper!

Reminds me of old school Prince or 'Jungle Love' w/ Morris Day & the Tyme. VERY circa 1984. Love it.

Thanks for posting this. I have heard that this song is taking over, and had never heard it. I must live in a hole or something, as I'm usually more aware of what is current than that.

The video looks like early 80's. The horns are rather late 70's early 80's Earth Wind and Fire "ish" or Chicago 'ish', or KC and the Sunshine Band 'ish'.

Can't believe I never heard this before. Glad to finally be in the know, and I think it will grow on me!

I've been loving this song since he debuted it on FB weeks ago.

He's such a great entertainer....old school mixed with pop!!

The horns remind me of the old group 'Tower of Power'.

Its a great song for driving in your car.

And I can watch Bruno Mars shake his booty all day.

I love it too.

It reminded me of this old one by Zapp & Roger (Doo Wa Ditty - Blow that Thing).

I love just about everything Bruno Mars does. He is like a combo of Michael Jackson, Elvis, and all my favorite soul men of the 70s and 80s rolled into one small dynamite package.
