It’s Kinda Hard To Make Mention Of My Favorite Music Without Mentioning…

THE CARS

…As They Represent, To ME, The Epitome Of ’80s Pop/Rock Music.

THE CARS

…Really Did Have A Sound All Their Own…

…BUT…

…I Can’t Think Of ’80s Music Without Including Them In The List Of…

"Favorite Sounds Of My Childhood"

…Ya Know?!

SURE YA DO!!!

😉

Glad You’re Coming With Me On This One.

With…

THE CARS

…I Have Multiple Favorite Jams.

My Favorite To Walk To Is…

TOO LATE

…While My Favorite To Drive To Is…

MY BEST FRIEND’S GIRL

…But But But…

…My Favorite To Sing Along With Is…

YOU MIGHT THINK

!!! !!!! !!!

It’s A Song That Has Always Succeeded In Bringing Out My Inner-Singer.

And YES, My Peeps, I Actually Am An Alright Singer.

I Wouldn’t Say I’m A Good Singer…

…But I’m AT LEAST Good Enough To Be Alright.

😉

ANYWAY…

…I Was Be-Bopping Around The Ranch When Good Ole “Mr. Shuffle” Decided To Grace My Day With This One.

I Immediately Stopped What I Was Doing Long Enough To Smile Big And Belt Out The First Verse.

(hehehe)

Needless To Say…

…I Quickly Made My Way Back To Ole “Mr. Computer” And I’ve Been Clickin’ These Keys, Since.

THE CARS

…Always Seem To Be Able To Brighten My Mood…

…And I’m Hoping They Can Do The Same For Some Of You.

I Know I Know…

…They Don’t Work On Everyone In Quite The Same Manner…

…But I Know They’ll Do Exactly As I’m Intending To Some.

Anything To Help Break-Up The Monotony Of The Day, Right?!?

RIGHT!!!

Hope It Helps, Kids!!!

If Not?

Hmm.

Well.

There Are Some Peeps I Just Can’t Fix.

I’m Only Human.

Maybe?

😕

(hehehe)

It’s One Of Those Pics That Always Brings A Little Smile To My Face.

I Can Remember The Day It Was Taken…

Hope Ya Dig It, My Peeps.

The Song Stuck In My Head: “OUR LAST TIME” by ROBERT CRAY (1992)

…While You Put…

…Your Make-Up On…

…I Watch You Yawn…

…And Check Your Watch…

…It’s All Reflected…

…In The Mirror…

…You’re Already Miles Away From Here. …

…And As You Watch Me Watch You…

…Slip Into Your Dress…

…And Your High Heels…

…You Know Just How I Feel…

…To Be The Last To Even Know About…

…OUR LAST TIME…

…OUR LAST TIME. …

OUR LAST TIMEIs My Fave Fave Favorite Track Off ROBERT CRAY‘s 1992 AlbumI WAS WARNED

…Then You Your Perfume On…

…Your String Of Pearls…

…And Your Diamond Rings…

…And Take One Last Look…

…Around The Room…

…To See If You’ve Left Anything…

…And As You Leave…

…You Turn And Blow A Kiss…

…And Tell Me That It Sure Was Fun…

…And What I Thought Had Just Begun…

…Has Just Become…

…OUR LAST TIME. …

… … … … … … …

… … … … …

… … …

The Song…

OUR LAST TIME

by ROBERT CRAY

…Has Been Locked In My Brain All Morning.

I Had My Jams Workin’ Early Early…

…But I Kept Coming Back To This One.

I’d Listen To Something…

…Then Pop On…

OUR LAST TIME

…Then Something Else…

…The Something Else…

…Then…

OUR LAST TIME

…And On…

…And On…

…And On.

It’s A Truly Wonderful Song, Fo SHO, My Peeps.

You Know Me…

…I Love Me Some Blues…

…Especially When It’s From…

ROBERT CRAY

!!! !!!! !!!

I Think Quality Blues Music Is Essential To Happy Living.

At Least…

…It Is For Me.

When I Listen To Quality Blues Music…

…I Get Almost Giddy.

It NEVER Ceases To Make Me Feel A Little Better.

And THEN You Mix In Some Sweet Sweet Licks From A Guitar MASTER Like…

ROBERT CRAY

…It’s Like BAAM!

You Can’t Beat It With A Stick At K-Mart, That’s Fo FRICKIN’ FRACKIN’ SHO!!!

😉

If Y’all Are Into Some Damn Fine Blues Jams…

…This Whole Album…

I WAS WARNED

…Is A Great Find.

I Still Think…

BAD INFLUENCE

…And…

STRONG PERSUADER

…Are The Quintessential Albums By…

ROBERT CRAY

…But This One Is Nearly As Impressive.

I’d Say Give It A Go, My Peeps.

Remember…

…Blues Music Isn’t Here To Make You Feel Down And Depressed.

In Fact…

…It’s The Polar Opposite.

Blues Music Is Designed To Make You Happy…

…Because You Can, Or Can Try To, Identify With What The Person Is Talkin’ ’bout.

Pretty Soon…

…Your Toes Are Tappin’…

…You’re Playin’ Some Slow, Jammin’ Air-Guitar…

…You Just Get Into It.

It’s FAN-FLIPPIN’-TASTIC, Kiddies!!!

Check Out Some…

ROBERT CRAY

…If Y’all Get The Chance.

He’s Got MY Seal Of Approval, That’s A BIG FO SHO, Good Buddies!!!

Hope You Enjoy It.
