The crazy thing about that list is t...Thanks Leah!<br /><br />The crazy thing about that list is that even though I stopped it 140 songs, there so many songs I could still put on here. <br /><br />(Sorry Celine's Dion's "Calling You", Patti Labelle's "If Only You Knew" Chaka Kahn's "Tell Something Good"/"Through The Fire" Tyrese's "Sweet Lady", Loose End's "Hanging on a String", Karyn White's "Superwoman" and Earth, Wind and Fire's "Reasons), but I had to stop!!) <br /><br />OK, let's get it crackin'!<br /><br />It does seem like you have had quite a few break ups. Not sure what happened there, but If you were a songwriter like Diane Warren or Babyface, you would be worth rich!!!!<br /><br />(I think you might be one of the few who actually realize how good 98 Degrees' "Hardest Thing" really is; Sure they were a boy band, but those are some hardcore dumping lyrics...but song)<br /><br />While I was looking over your break up comments, I started to think what is worse:<br /><br />Breaking up with someone, you having feelings for someone, but they don't feel the same? <br /><br />At least with the break up, I saw the good, the bad and the ugly, but unrequited love leaves you hanging in a "what if" state. <br /><br />On the flip side songs, like "Moments in Love", "Baby Come To Me", "Splash Waterfalls" and "In Between The Sheets , basically says love no or no love, it's time to get down to BIZNESS! <br /><br />The songs set the tempo and you have to either keep up or get off the bus (if that makes any sense).<br /><br />I think people how many great songs Janet Jackson made. <br /><br />If all you had on your Ipod was "Funny How Time Flies", "Come Back To Me", "I Get So Lonely" 70s's Love Grove and "Anytime, Anyplace", someone is about to get pregnant!<br /><br />Its some ways both of our Get Down/Its About to Go Down lists are like yoga classes: <br /><br />It starts off slow and steady, then it speeds until exhaustion then cool session down begins, (Namaste bedroom freaks!)<br /><br />I was actually surprised how many songs that was on my Love and Hip Hop list. <br /><br />I had some songs in my head like "Bonita Applebaum" and "Doin It", but as I kept on researching, I realized although there are far more memorable rap love songs that people don't realize<br /><br />I was never a big fan of LL Cool J's "I Need Love", so just like you left off J. Geils' "Love Stinks", I did the same because it was too obvious. <br /><br />However, Jay-Z's "Excuse Me Miss" is pretty underrated love ballad and the groove is just fire! I can see myself all suited, talking to some hot media chick in an elevator (Hello Aerosmith's "Love in a Elevator".)<br /><br />I almost made "Excuse me Miss"<br />#1 (its really 1B), but what Method and Mary J Blige did with a Marvin Gaye and Tami Terrell "All I Need" is just pure genius!<br /><br />I think my "Mixtape" list harkens back to my DJing days. <br /><br />I use to enjoy putting together playlists that the audience would have a connection with..thanks to you, I was able to put this in blog spot form.<br /><br />(The toughest thing was trying not to use the same songs you did, I think my list might be 99% different, but I'm not sure at this point.)<br /><br /><br />Finally, nice touch having the Lionel Richie on vinyl (you are true old soul indeed) and "Splash Waterfalls" has just become my new ringtone, so start tingling away!<br /><br />...okay its not, but I did enjoy your comment ;)soul88https://www.blogger.com/profile/17966739305251112716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863140156624419777.post-38864330050159517282013-02-13T12:38:40.894-05:002013-02-13T12:38:40.894-05:00It’s About To Go Down
