Old School Friday #90 ~I Had A Crush On~!

I remember being young, having a bunch of pictures on my wall that I cut out of the Word Up & Right On Magazines! Playing my cassette tapes until they popped, buying cassette tape singles (Yep they used to have cassette tape singles!). I also remember having a mean crush on one or two singers. Besides my OBVIOUS crush on fellow Scorpio "Ronnie Devoe(Ronald Boyd Devoe Jr.)" of New Edition & BBD, hmmm! Time for Old School Friday!!

Old School Friday #89 ~Songs That Inspire~!

It is Friday and it has been a very difficult week for my family, but a worse week for the families who lost loved ones. There are no words that can take away the pain of a death, but my spirit cries for those that are lost and for those suffering a loss.
Time for Old School Friday. Music to soothe the soul. Today's theme is a hard on in spite of life's tragedies but we must move on, right?
