Ok, I have a kindred spirit here on Myspace. I ventured over to her blog and man, she held it DOWNNNNNNNNN with her top forty love songs. I didn't want to hurt too bad so instead of the top 40 Get It Get It oooooooooooh Weeeeeeee songs-since we both are new to the age of 40 (get the theme?) I am going to take it back. Back to the 80's where big hair and fly girls ruled.
I loved to dance and I loved boys. But I was a TEASE in the worse way. My loves lasted about as long as my hubba bubba gum. When I think back, I laugh, smile and even let a pinch of melancholy come over me. Haven't seen the vast majority since the 80's-90's and those that I have seen later in life, I am glad that those weren't choices, just stopovers! lol So as I list my songs, I know I will chuckle because I am a mental jukebox.
I am talking about blue lights and an oatmeal box full of quarters at a house party. Brass Monkey on the sly and giving that cute dude blue balls because I was a "Good Girl" and like Janet said, "Let's wait a while." You and him in the corner "slow dragging or hunching."
I can list these songs because there was no ALL THE WAY. Just moments and times in a gals life.
40: Nobody does it better-Carly Simon -- Nuff, said.
39: Save a Prayer-Duran Duran--even though my head was on his shoulder, my heart and mind was dreaming of John Taylor the bassist for Duran Duran. Those fabulous videos helped to feed my imagination...
38: The Morning After- Alexander O'Neal- Ok, I was a freshman in college but I liked this dude and whenever we danced, he would have to song playing. Too bad he was as interesting as drying paint. I know he was trying to say something, but I wasn't listening! lol
37: Please Don't Go-Boys II Men---This was another one of his songs, I unfortunately have to associate him with this song. I can hear him caterwauling now. Yuck.
36: Tender Love-Force Md's---I had the worse crush oh Jesse McDaniel back then. Even though TC sang most of the leads-I picked ole Jessie.
35: Love Ballad-LTD---mannnnnnnnnnn, that was ma jammy jammmmmmmmmmm! I had a five minute crush on this dude name Santo and I danced with him to this song. My crush lasted exactly one song, he had THE HANDS and I wasn't having it!
34:Make it last forever-Keith Sweat---Man oh man. Yum Yum...
33: Do me baby-M'elissa Morgan---You haven't lived until you had a dude sing this in yo ear off key and you leave him witha nice set of blue balls.
32: Still in love with you-New Edition---I waited until my thirties to let this song get ruined for me, but I still love this tune
33: I'd Die without you-Pm Dawn---another minute and a half crush. Man, once they open their mouth or start with THE HANDS-I was OUTTA THERE!
32:Sensitivity-Ralph Tresvant---I swore if one more dude sang that song to me that they was going to get cut STAT! Mofo's behaving like dogs and acting like they were SENSITIVE. Miss me with that b.s.
31:As we lay-Shirley Murdock--The cheating song is NEVER a good song to sing in someones ear when you are trying to impress them. Yuck
30: I'm all out of love-Air Supply-Mannnnnnnnnn, first real boyfriend. I'm lying alone with my head on the phone, thinking about you to till it hurts...Actually, on the phone til my mother ran me off of the phone, then chastising me for "running up her bill." lol
29: The First Time-Surface---said boyfriend made a cassette tape for me and guess what was the first song? Unlike him, I still have the tape.
28: Stay the Night-Benjamin Orr---If you don't have this song, you don't have NOTHING. GO GET IT NOWWWWWWWWWWW!
27: Suddenly-Billy Ocean---I loved this song. Too bad I didn't love the guy I was dating at the time.
26:The Flame-Cheap Trick--I promised a dude this song and at the time I really meant the words, but I am a fickle chick. I want to give myself some credit, I think I kept that crush for at least a week afterwards, I believe.
25: Don't Walk Away-Rick Springfield---I dragged the bf to see Hard to Hold. It was hard for him literally to watch me get excited over Rick and in his pants and I wasn't having it.
24: I won't hold you back-Toto---Once upon a time, there was a guy and I danced the night away with him and he gave me a great kiss to this song. I didn't give him my number. I knew he would make me struggle. lol
23:Two Occasions-The Deele---cuz everytime I close my eyes, I think offffffffff himmmmmmmm...
22: Love me-Tracey Spencer-Palladium, NYC. Yes sirrrrrrr. Nothing like underaged drinking and hunching with a cutie pie.
21: All I do is think of you-Troop---H.M. You are probably old and fat and bald now. Let it be true...
20:You don't have to cry-Rene and Angela---Yes, I do, and I did.
