Boy bands of the late 80's & 90's..........

As I was listening to some tunes this am...I couldn't help but realize how much I missed old r&b groups.  I mean, I was playing everything from "Jodeci", "Ready For The World", "Shai", "H-Town", "Guy", "The Boys", to "Hi-Five" and the list goes on.  I really miss the boy bands of the late 80's & 90's.  They don't make em like that anymore, the songs and videos were just classic. 

Ready For The World sang songs about age being nothing but a #.  Although, they were young they proved that they can still "love you down", lol.  Shai, with their acapella 'If I ever fall in love"-which was the infamous "talent show/audition song" guys would sing everywhere.  Guy-who made it ok to settle down w/ one girl on their "Let's Chill" song. Oh, and let's not forget the fashion and the dancing!  Jodeci and H-Town who made wearing doc marten boots w/ no shirts and suspenders look cool, lol.  The Boys-who every pre-teen girl-including myself had a crush on. Backflips and all in the video, they were too adorable! 

I was thinking, they should really have a comeback tour with all of these groups. Minus-The Boys-being that they ran off to Africa and no longer do r & b music.  Also, minus one of the members of H-town, R.I.P. to the lead singer who died in a car crash.  Also, lead singer of Hi-Five who died from an overdose:(  With that being said, my hat goes off to all of them.  Thanks for giving us some great music-that we can still enjoy today.......

*Then....

*and a disturbing pic of them now (crickets)

*The Boys-looking adorable.  Speaking of "The Boys", ya girl did a lil research and this is what I came up with.  They now go by the name of "The Suns Of Light".  Here is some footage of what they look like now.  Also, what kind of music their doing-ummmmmm......at least we'll always have "Dial My Heart".

My throwback video pick of the day.....

I know when some of you see this vid pick, you'll think "wtf?!"-  Yes, yes I adore this song for so many reasons.  My mom would blast this all over the house while doing her Sunday cleaning.  I had no choice but to fall in love with it.  Although, I was too young to understand what she was actually saying-I loved her voice.  The older I got I was able to appreciate the message in the song.  One of my all time fav country songs-Go Tammy!

Flicks & Reminiscing on past vacations with da gals. Via-Las Vegas, Miami & Mexico....

Ok, this kid just blew me away......

Dust In the wind. Some of my favorite couples who couldn't get it right *sigh*.....

There are some couples who look so good together that they start to look alike.  Below are my favorite lovebirds who just couldn't  make it last *teardrop*.  Either he or she cheated, someone wasn't ready for kids, they just grew apart  or cocaine got in the way, lol.  No matter how you put it, at the end of the day-they're all dunnzo!  Ahhhhh, cue: violins........

                                      

Evening giggles: Really tho, we get this mad over Ramen Noodles?!?!

Music: Unreleased track by Common- "Next Time".....

Favorite throwback 80's group: "The Jets"....

"The Jets" were an 80's family singing group who were formally known as "The Polynesian Pearls". They were raised in the Tongan islands in Hawaii and then moved to Minneapolis. The group consisted of 8 brothers and sisters and were discovered by Don Powell. The Jets were popular for songs such as "Make It Real", "Crush On You" and "You Got It All" (which was my FAV)…..

With their unique look, wild bushy hair and infamous "non-matching/pastel color" outfits, lol. This brother and sister group rocked the charts in the 80's with their love struck ballads. Although, it's been years since we heard from them. The Jets are now touring throughout the country and are in the process of recording another album. Let's hope they come back full blast-*crossing fingers*.

*Sidebar-I secretly wanted to be the 9th member when I was a kid.  Shhhhhh.....
