I SO hate when I get a song or a group in my head that I can't put a name to. UGH!
It all started today when my friend on Facebook put in her status some lyrics to a Keith Sweat song...and of course I had to sing it in his nasally tone because his whining used to annoy the hell out of me. THAT led to my saying that I also couldn't stand Al B Sure. Now, let's get a little background. Al and I both hail from "Money Earnin' Mt.Vernon" in NY. I remember how everyone was so proud of him and I do remember liking "Night and Day" and dancing to "Off On Your Own" but he too, had a nasally tone that sent me into ear-plugging mode. I also happen to know his oldest son personally as well as his mom. So, I know more than most fans do about Mr. Sure. O_o
BACK to the issue...I decided to take my taunting to the next level and go to Youtube for a video fix. GEEZ LOUISE...the outfits we wore back then. *gagging* He had on acid wash, ripped strategically and then took off his jacket to reveal a short-sleeved mock turtleneck. Where they do that at? LMAO
Then...BAM!! I saw them. The back up singers...and remembered they tried to "Get off on their own" and make an album. A one hit wonder of course...or else this wouldn't be so damn hard. I remember liking the song, too...but I can't remember the name of IT or THEM. When I googled them...I got NADA basically, except a link for a question asked on answers.com. Someone wanted to know the same thing I did...and the answer led me nowhere. DAMNIT!!!
THEN...I thought about this other song called, "Yeah Yeah Yeah" by a group of little girls that I can't remember either. AND another song that was by a group of kids and all I have to go on is the word "question". I remember thinking when Monica came out...that she looked like the cute little girl with the big voice. I also remember a song I can't find anywhere by a chick named Tenee Williams...who I remember SOLELY on the fact that her first name is my middle name. *_*
SUPER UPDATE IN THE MAKING!! I FOUND the video by Tene Williams!!! Here it is. Do you remember?
6 scopers scoping:
Who? Naw....lol
LOL...you and a whole bunch of others. I swear it's only because our names are so close...or I probably would've forgotten her, too. LOL
Done learnt something new today...never heard of that chic..lol But, I do hate it when I can't think of a song or artist's name. :)
Chile!!! I got an update!! I found the song by the little girls. Their group was called Voices and check it, it had Tia and Tamera Mowry in it at first (then switched and had 2 sisters)

only my girl K would come up with this...the thing i do is go to google and put in half lyrics it usually populates...how about sunshine anderson? hear it all before...1 hit wonders...WOW!
That is the thing! I couldn't even remember the lyrics or the rhythm. Just those little bits and pieces that led to nothing...but, I'm a beast with it, so I stayed on it until I found it! NOW...if I only I could find that little kids' group that I thought Monica was in. lol
I DEF remember Sunshine Anderson! That and a few other songs from her album...but her song was TRULY a hit, so I could at least sing the song. lol
oooh the TROUBLE the world would be in if I used my powers for evil. LMAO
