I guess someone thought it was funny to mash up The Orlons’ song “Envy” with a horrifying scene from Fatal Attraction.
I don’t. But I didn’t want y’all to miss out on the song, which, as I mentioned in Soul Picnic, sounds like a direct influence on Laura’s “Blowin’ Away.” Agree??
The Orlons were one of those great Philly vocal groups, precursors to those produced by Gamble and Huff, who also produced Laura’s Gonna Take a Miracle. Kenny Gamble was also married to Dee Dee “Mashed Potatoes” Sharp, for whom The Orlons sang backup on some records.
