    "comment": "Hi John! My wife Jess turned 49 today, which calls for something to dance to.  I'm hoping you can play Groove is in the Heart by Deee-Lite.  That would be my succotash wish.\nThank you, Nick in Minnesota\n---\nHappy birthday, Jess< and happy dancing to you both!\n---\nDeee-Lite's ethos was to \"accentuate positivity,\" which they certainly did on this track. Frontwoman Lady Miss Kier, a spiritual predecessor to Lady Gaga, called it \"an alternative to the destruction that all people living on the planet are faced with: the environment, AIDS, social justice. It's important to make some positive music.\"",
