You and I: The Wedding Song for Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton has been decided. I liked the Stevie Wonder version instead of George Micheal's take on the classic love song.

You and I. Stevie Wonder's version was legendary.

Sorry Stevie.

The countdown to the Royal Wedding between Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton is well underway. I am still a little "miffed" that I was left off of the "official guest list." Someone needs to do a "once over" and make sure I haven't been given the "Royal snub?"

Anyway, I will be one of the billions who will be watching all "Royal" news for the next couple of weeks leading up to the big sappy ceremony.

I partied for three days during the last mega "Royal Wedding' between Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer, back a generation ago.

Times have changed since then. Today people from all over the globe are glued to Twitter, and Facebook, My Space, and You Tube to get a latest up to minute news about the April 29th wedding. No one knew about the "Internet" 30 years ago. Hummmm. My have times changed.

Tonight the "official" wedding song was revealed on the Pierce Morgan Show on CNN. George Michael has redone Stevie Wonders amazing rendition of "You and I." The new "Wedding song" for Wills and Cate will sell millions of copies during the next few days.

I like the original take of "You and I" by the legendary Stevie Wonder back in 1973. Doesn't anyone have an "original" idea any more? Apparently not. I "wonder" if Queen Elizabeth is in a snit over this wedding song revelation, or if she even knows who Stevie Wonder is? Probably not.

Michael, who was born in East London, and is Greek and British has a version of "YOU AND I" floating around, and I posted his version here on the blog....

A contribution to the Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton Charitable Gift Fund is being suggested for down loading the song.

Whatever.

Above Mariah Carey nails her version of the song as a tribute to Little Stevie.

More on You and I said...: I read somewhere that Stevie composed this song SPONTANEOUSLY in the studio when he was recording "Talking Book". Meaning, he just sat down at the piano and created the chords and the words and the melody all at once without having written it ahead of time. This was in 1972 during his most prolific period when he cranked out 4 albums of GREAT songs in about 2 years, playing all the instruments and doing the arrangements. Such an incredible gift! So influential. No one can touch him really.; Saturday, April 16, 2011 5:25:00 AM

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
