Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 8:42 AM lol. I have a feeling it's a phrase he lifted from the gay morning zoo, but I'm not sure anyone really knows. —TortillaFactory |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 1:15 PM I don't get it -- "Gotta Get It On" was literally a song from the "Taboo 2" soundtrack -- the lyrics are: Gotta get it on
Gotta get it on... (repeated ad infinitum) Did you want me to research it further than that? Uh, let's see, "get it on" was a popular phrase in the late 60's and early 70's used to denote that people were having sexual intercourse. Though known among adults, it was more commonly used by teenagers and kids in their 20's during that time period... *continues disertation on the origin of "gotta get it on"* —steve |

Edited Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 1:19 PM What is the "it" referring to? And by "on", is something being donned, like putting on a sweater? Oh, and, "get", you must obtain this "it" to put "on"????? I'm confused. —Lou Cypher |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 1:20 PM Maybe we should provide a full conjugation of the verb "to get". —steve |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 1:40 PM Or Bill Gates. His similar concerns about the word "is" indicate that he might have some useful insight on this grammatical nightmare of a phrase. —Dark Laith |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 1:43 PM for those of us who were around when the phrase was popular, the funny thing about it is that you had to get it off before you could "GET IT ON!" —oh-for |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 8:38 PM He only reveeeeeals what he WANNNNTS you to seeeee....
Btw...Here is the first verse of Billy Joel's "She's Always a Woman."
Wonder which was written first.
She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
Yeah, she hides like a child
But she's always a woman to me —Dusty TheHick |

Tuesday, February 1, 2005 at 9:01 PM Well, according to IMDB, Taboo II came out in 1982. Billy Joel's song came out in 1977. So, there you go. I doubt that Taboo II's song was written that long before the film was released. —TortillaFactory |
