Long before everyone started blathering on about “diversity” and “inclusivity” like it was a TED Talk, Deee-Lite were living it, sounding it, dancing it. They were the downtown New York of the early ’90s in human form: queer, multiracial, global, political, wired on caffeine and club drugs, dressed like cartoon characters who just crawled out of a Danceteria dressing room.:  Here's a tribute to this group: https://dangerousminds.net/music/deee-lite-the-queer-funky-weirdos-who-briefly-ruled-pop/\n--\nDid you know that this song contains samples of 14 other songs (including the bassline from Herbie Hancock's 1966 \"Bring Down the Birds\") and has itself been sampled more than 60 times?",

Perren was a co-writer on three #1 Jackson 5 hits: \"I Want You Back,\" \"The Love You Save\" and \"ABC.\" Fekaris' biggest co-write with Motown was \"I Just Want to Celebrate\" by Rare Earth, but he also placed tracks with The Temptations and The Four Tops.\n\nWhen Perren and Fekaris left Motown, they formed their own production duo and scored big with Peaches & Herb, taking \"Reunited\" to #1. When they wrote \"I Will Survive,\" they had nobody to sing it. The pair agreed that the next diva that came their way would get the song. That diva was Gloria Gaynor, whose record company called Perren looking for production work on a song called \"Substitute,\" which was originally recorded by the Righteous Brothers. They took the gig, and Gaynor agreed to record \"I Will Survive\" as the B-side.",
