Rubberband Man ~

One of my favorite songs of all time is Rubber Band Man by The Spinners. I remember hearing it and thinking it was so cool and I never could hear it enough because it was on the radio and after it was played it wasn't a hot hit so you didn't hear it again for quite some time. But I remember enjoying it every time it came on.

I never did buy the CD because I couldn't find it and I had other interests that I wanted the CDs more. But when streaming services started playing songs and I was looking for something different to listen to I could added that to the mix and it was awesome.

Now I have that song in my mix of jams and convertible-top-down music. It's always fun when that song comes on because I enjoy the beat and I enjoy the funny story in the song. I have yet to hear a remix or a use of that song in a modern song.

There's probably some out there but it's probably not anything that I would run across and what I listen to normally. If you want to listen to The Spinners version check it out on YouTube at
