i came here educating my nephew and son about good music. we were discussing the computer sound andbit brought us here. I was like "it really siund like Charlie Wilson" and after a little googling it brought me here! I love it
thats why i bought a talkbox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is amazing how they Came up with that song and the HATERS lol ... however shirley Murdock, made it sound Good tho this song Was Referring to the social media phenonmenon .of today,,waaay in 1980s
You know what? Now that I heard this story from Charlie Wilson I feel that the people who made the movie 'weird science' should pay the Troutman estate because it was Roger's idea for the movie's plot! @1:55 YEP! 😂
I love this song so much i have it on my playlist computer love is one of my favorite song. Zapp Be Alright. Is a great song. I 💜this song i have this on my favorite playlist also love me some Zapp .music will always be on my. List 💜🌹💜🌹💜🌹💜
Charlie Wilson's story about his label taking Zapp to court and making them take his vocals off the track doesn't add up. "Computer Love" actually WAS released with Charlie Wilson's vocals and it appears on their 1985 studio album "The New Zapp IV U." The Charlie Wilson version also appears on the 12-inch maxi-single as well as their greatest hits album, released in 1993. In fact, the version of "Computer Love" that plays in the background of this video is that very version. The version with Shirley Murdock he referred to is the Extended Version, which appears on the aforementioned 12-inch maxi-single. A radio edit of that version was released on the 7-inch single. Now that version doesn't feature Charlie Wilson, but all other official releases of the track feature both Shirley Murdock AND Charlie Wilson.
Right, because that's the only version I ever heard was with him and Shirley Murdock. I remember one of the first times I heard the song I thought dang Charlie Wilson sound like Stevie Wonder a bit lol
Shirley did well but the track lost something when they took Charlie's voice off. I remember it at the time, Charlie was on the album version The New Zapp 4 U, but the trouble started when they released it as a single, that's when they had to take his voice off.
I searched this for that specific reason. I remember that there was a controversy about the song and There was a suit going on about Charlie's voice being on the song, but as a kid I didn't know the details. This clears it up for me decades later.
Roger didn't mind working with younger cats i.e. Tech9ne I would have loved to see him on a track with T-pain Drake and Rick ross that would have been legendary.
@@BallisNotLife That's what I always loved about Roger Troutman is that he didn't mind working went younger talent.. I wish some older talent see that.. we would have a lot of great music out now if some of the older heads wasn't stubborn and the young heads would stop and listen every once in a while..
I was wondering that some years ago.. No Video for this song is a crime.. But from what Charlie Wilson is saying I see why it wasn't no video.. Charlie Wilson's record Company was some complete morons..
I can personally say that before Charlie Wilson and His brothers got famous they resided at a share address where I saw them every day going to the studio to refine their motivation, at the address in Los Angeles they did succumbed to the COCAINE KING and until Charlie Wilson resolved and the interventions i CAIF took their perspective we would not have the great music from Charlie and the surrounding of love he receive to get it right and after the brother pasting maybe never hearing the GREAT Voice he is_______ NO subs and not getting into what is Great or who is. But Charlie Stands and He is a GIANT for others to lift off. Enough said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No disrespect to Unc Charlie, BUT Shirley Murdock's version with elements of CW is hand's down better than the original. If you listen to it, the feel, vibe and mix is very different.
The song would not be the same without Charlie Wilson, let’s be honest. I hear what you’re saying, because Shirley Murdock gives the female vocals. Really the song wouldn’t be the same without either one
Roger Troutman was before his time .....R.I.P Roger Troutman....You are truly missed
Computer Love is timeless. Roger Troutman is a legend, imagine if he were still alive.
He was far ahead of his time. I'm sure if he were alive he would be putting out music our great grand kids would be dancing to.

Glad you discussed this. I knew I heard his distinct voice Thks

Actually he's version does not appear on the 12 in single. It appears on the 7 in though.
Bom, bom- chu-chu-chu-kwaa... Computer Love ...
Imagine Nate Dogg, Charlie Wilson, Kayne west Tpain, and Drake collab with something funky. That would of been amazing
Roger didn't mind working with younger cats i.e. Tech9ne I would have loved to see him on a track with T-pain Drake and Rick ross that would have been legendary.
@@BallisNotLife absolutely!

It’s on Roger’s Greatest Hits album on Apple Music. I love Shirley but Charlie’s version is straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@TheMrNoWeapon yeah, Shirley did well, but the track lost something when they took Charlie's voice off. The original version is on Zapp 4 u as well.
@@SirStamford27 the correct title would be "The New Zapp IV U"

I used to think that was Stevie Wonder singing on Computer Love.

so they watched weird science then?
Computer Love was released in 1985. Weird Science came out in 1986.
