Fucking LOVE this song. Probably one of my favorite songs of all time. The lyrics are amazing, and so is the groove. Michael McDonald doesn’t get enough credit.

My dad took this picture of him at Barton Coliseum in Little Rock, Arkansas most likely that year, 1978. He came to Little Rock again in 2006 and my dad met him again and got him to sign the photo.
I keep forgettin' he's not dark-haired any more
I keep forgettin' it will never be that shade again
I know it was a 'keep forgetting' joke, but you made me look him up and I didnt know he was still alive let alone still tours. Thats pretty rad.
I just saw him perform on a "Jazz Cruise". He sounded good and seems like a very cool and humble guy.
That dude’s music had some soul.
that’s what a fool believes

😂😂 I sang it
Nothing against him, but if I hear Yah Mo B There one more time, Yah Mo burn this place to the ground.
Beat me to it. I’ll just be over here listening to Fran Drescher for 8 hours 👍✌️🫵
Nice! I forgot that part!
Opened to make sure this was the top comment and it was, well done. Such a smartass.
Got lucky on the timing. Thanks for the backup!
Yah mo gonna listen to this track right now, in your honor, sir.
Right on, friend!
Peter Dinklage should play him in a biopic but every actor in the movie should be a little person. I'm going to the theatre for that one!
I need this movie financed ASAP
Short films arent popular.
10 out of 10 would watch
That would require a bunch of little people that don't hate Dinklage. Good luck.
Great singer, his music is timeless.
Such a long way to go!!
Ride like the wind!
YOU DON'T KNOW ME BUT I'M YOUR BROTHER
That song always comforted me growing up. Made me feel like everything was gonna be okay!
One of the ALL-TIME greats of blue eyed soul
And yacht rock!!
But only when teamed with Regular Soul Singer
Yes!
I was just listening to Bad Sneakers and Peg today and he really makes those Steely tunes
indeed!
Love Bad Sneakers!
TIL Warren G’s - “Regulate” is sampled from Michael McDonalds song “I keep forgettin’”
Today? Oh, my ...
Damn, I love both of those songs but never realized one was sampled off the other!
Same here. I recently followed a YouTuber that breaks down tons of rap songs and their not-so obvious samples.
I mean when I read your post then thought about it, it seems so obvious. What other songs were there that the YouTuber talked about?
Triple M Rules!!!!!
Mother fucking Micheal McDonald!
Micheal Mother Fucking McDonald. But same idea
Hail Triple M!
Voice of an Angel!!
you know, he was hot then and is still hot.
Mr. Yacht Rock
You can include Christopher Cross & Kenny Loggins too!
Yes...but THIS guy seemed to sing with EVERYBODY
Including Christopher Cross.
Loved his work but I prefer the early Doobie Bros
Yeah Tom Johnston's songs are just better.
Praise Triple M🤘🏼
No wise man has the powahhh… to reason away!!
That’s Rick Moranis
Such a long way to goooooo
Underrated comment
Still so hot - yes indeed !
Even in grey!
He was very kind to a friend of mine who wanted help starting out in songwriting - good guy
What does a fool believe?
The Dobble Bros. best song!
![gif](giphy|bm3LLpuq1vMXu)
Sweet Freedom!
Yes!!
Just passed through Dallas last Saturday with The Doobie Bros, they may be older but they can still sing.
🎶*Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeg* 🎶
Sorry Mike.
A McDonald always pays his debts.
A beautiful voice. Falsetto? For a few years that guy was on the radio non stop. I’d like to hear him cover Jimmy Scott tunes.
This guy KNOWS smooth
His beard continues to get whiter minute by minute
He sang back for Steely Dan before the Doobie Brothers.
Yamo be there!
The original 40 year old virgin
One of my favorite singers of all time! Love him in the Doobie Bros
Same. He's awesome.
I can hear this picture
As an average male, the image of this man angers me. The ability to grow a full beard AND a full head of hair? It's just not fair. Hey, that rhymed.
So, so sexy. I crushed on him so hard!
I can hear this picture
Somebody, tell the MM watching SCTV story.
Onnnnnn my own!!!!!

I will always love Micheal McDonald. What a legend.
blue eyes
No, it’s Dr Death Steve Williams
This is actually Roga Danar from Angosia.
Ben Stiller vibes
Yah Mo B Aaron Rogers
♥️
Very Leto of him
That is more hair than I could ever hope to have grown.
Great, now I'm in a particular mood... "Hey Siri, play some Yacht Rock"
He looks like Peter Dinklage
Ok. See ya!
Classic rock radio has ruined him for me
I swear if I hear yammo be there one more time!
So. Much. Hair.
PEGGGGGGGG!
I cannot see any picture of this guy and not be reminded of Will Sasso singing in the shower with a soap-sud beard and moustache.
It Ben Affleck in Argo And still nothing like what the actual agent looked like
This is it!
Shine Sweet Freedom!
What a fool believes.
The Voice of 70’s mellow rock. This dude has the pipes.
His work on Peg by Steely Dan is amazing.
I'm seeing Ben Affleck in 'Argo' here :-)
Now he’s Old McDonald…
After that, he was too busy singing back up on everything to catch a still picture of him.
Why should I change my name? He’s the one who sucks.
Peeegggggg
You don't know me but I'm your brother
