I first heard this on The Voice. Chris (can't remember his last name) sang it. Downloaded it right away for my exercise music. LOVE! Honestly, I didn't know Bruno Mars was this good. Thanks for posting. Love the horns! LM

Agree with both!

Re: Earworm...Booty Shaker! Uptown Funk!

It's funny...,this song is technically Mark Ronson's song/album, but the featured artist, Bruno Mars, is remembered for it. Mark is an award-winning artist, but very sight-unseen.

Much like "Fancy"...we remember that song for the featured artist (Charli XCX) but it's under Iggy Azalea's discography.

Bruno is the only man I have ever seen that still looks cute with rollers in his hair.

Re: Earworm...Booty Shaker! Uptown Funk!

I love . . . no adore Bruno!!! He brings me back to the 80s with MJ style, but better (IMO). I love his group, they can all really mooove!! He is flat out adorable and hugely talented.

I wonder why he wasn't on the Grammys last night?

I think I had that same blazer Bruno is wearing.

The song sounds disco-ish to me.

Re: Earworm...Booty Shaker! Uptown Funk!

In Rolling Stone and on Billboard, the only artist listed with Uptown Funk is Mark Ronson. I'm confused. I've seen it performed, and Ronson is a backup guitarist on it. I knew he was a DJ, wrote music, and produced it, but there are already categories to recognize that. Bruno's name isn't even mentioned in a "featuring" phrase in print. This is Bruno Mars' performance, not Mark Ronson's. Then there's Avicii, a DJ who puts out a whole album using other vocalists, and he gets credit for the album. I just don't get it.
