High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! "Yes, Yes, Yes" is a musical comedy/parody song co-written, recorded and released as a single in 1976 by comedian Bill Cosby. The song came from Cosby's 1976 album, Bill Cosby Is Not Himself These Days. The song, which Cosby co-wrote with his longtime collaborator, Stu Gardner, spoofed Barry White's deep-voiced spoken-word sexual monologues but instead of a monologue of making love, Cosby constantly asked his wife if she took money off his pocket, destroyed the car she borrowed from him, if his checkbook was overdrawn and if she was cheating on him with a man "in his closet" wearing his pajamas. The female background vocalists constantly say "yes, yes, yes" to every one of Cosby's questions....

Yannis Psychopedis was born in 1945 and he is one of the main Greek exponents of artistic Critical Realism, an art movement that developed in Europe after the political and social upheavals of 1968. The May 1968 student rebellions in France, the Prague Spring uprising in Czechoslovakia, and the coup d'etat establishing the Greek military junta of 1967-1974 were catalysts for this group.

At the end of the decade, Psychopedis turned his attention to pastels and oils, exploring bright contrasts of pure colour in...
