Ruth Pointer on "I'm So Excited" (Apollo Theater Soundstage) 

The Gospel according to Ruth! Oh Yeah

Glad they kept Ruth's ad-libs. It helps to make the song what it is.

I think a lot of their best hooks were those spontaneous moments that stick in your brain when listening to a song. There were a lot of those hooks toward the end of their songs that you always look forward to.

In 9th grade I had a teacher who went absolutely crazy over this song. He started calmly explaining what the song was, who The Pointer Sisters are, translating lyrics into Swedish.. and then ended in a crescendo screaching that "THEY MEAN THEY ARE HORNY!". Thank you kind sir. I would never have figured that out.

Great song!

What a charming character she is and very whitty. I love the Pointer Sisters. They've made some great music.

I love Ruth, she has that wit.

Is there anyway to see the full interview?

I’m so sorry to the people who love this song but it’s so overrated to me Automatic is their best song but I understand why the song goes better with a lot more stuff
