How funny, today at work me and some co-workers were on youtube looking up old school songs. It started with me wanted to hear Tina Turner's Fool in Love. Then we went to M.J. And Paul McCarty's Say Say Say, then we went to Reva Jackson's Centipede (I'm sure that is spelled wrong). Then it was on to LaToya's Hearts Don't Lie. If one of troops had not needed me it would have went own and own.

Nat King Cole (I should have used him for men/perms).

Smokey was fine.

clnmike said...

Happy OSF, you went with the classics, good choice.

MrsGrapevine said...

Regina these are great choices, that I never would have thought of. This is what singing is about sometimes. Keeping it simple and smooth.

I saw Smokey Robinson at a hotel last summer. He loks like he had some some work done (what is he like 70?) but he looked TASTY still! Happy OSF!

Danielle said...

A bit late on getting my OSF up and discovered that we are really of like minds. I shared Mona Lisa by Cole and Crosby.

Smokey, Smokey, Smokey. He must have got that name for his voice.

All this crooning has me swooning.

Have a Blessed Weekend.

Light and Love all the day Long.

Regina means What??

What Regina Means
You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.
