I really love what Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak are doing with this group. I think the song is great - and I love that they are not taking themselves too seriously, and yet the production value of the recording is so good. Great arrangements, great changes, great performances - it checks all my boxes.
And, I just ran across this live performance at the Grammy's (which I didn't watch) which, again, ticks all my boxes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d4yW6Lz_1o
My wife feels like it is a bit too much in the "making fun" of category - like the music that was on Stephen Cobert's Christmas Special (which if you haven't seen, is fantastic for those of us that grew up on the Andy Williams and Osmond's TV shows). I see it more as a spot on Homage to those old acts, like Gladys Knight and the Pips and so on.
