Default Cokey vs. Pokey

Do you agree or disagree that cokey is better than pokey?

I voted for Cokey because over the pond we call it the "Hokey Cokey" and that's the way I likes it. Pokeys are lies. They're foreign so wrong wrong wrong *ish being glib and tongue in cheek if it weren't obvious*

My evidence for the fact that cokey is far superior to pokey is as followed:

(5:15 - the end)



I would sometime to find a video of Pokey Stevie that is better than this.
Do it. I dare you :P

Well, you confuse me with the adverb "vastly." But pokey is better. I am not going to throw in superlatives that quantify how much better.

...and here I'd always assumed 'pokey' was innuendo

Only my favorite performance of all time (well of Stevie anyway). And don't challenge me to find a better Pokey video because you know I will .

And you guys know that in that jumbled ramble she's saying "bad da da da do the lambada" over and over right?

Would that be sad or funny if she toppled over after that turn at 6:50?

actually what she is trying to say is... "I don't change and you don't change it's all the same" (according to other performances of this song from this tour)

edit ...btw i didnt vote. i like both cokey and pokey.

As for concert performances, Cokey certainly is best. Still, since I'm sure we all wanted Stevie to live past 40 years old, Cokey had to go.
