||luther vandross - if only for one night||

i've always wondered what goes through an artist's mind in the midst of creating a piece of art. i'm sure we can all link songs back to a certain time, moment, event, or individual. sometimes we'll go as far as re-live something created purely out of nothing but our imagination. where ever music takes you, i hope it's someplace pleasant.

happy tuesday!

||blackstreet - i wanna be your man||

if i was a man...but i'm not. but any guy who dedicated this to a girl could make her heart melt. enjoy kids! ;)

||babyface, tamia, & quincy jones - slow jams||

you are now tuning into the ultimate slow jam song ever made. a slow jam about slow jams?! ya daaaamn right! it don't get no sexier than this people! hellooooo sunday!

||gladys knight and the pips - neither one of us||

it was a difficult task having rowe's ultimate playlist already circulating. but i managed to pull some strings and made my own mini volume one slow jams compilation, consisting of a 25 song set. watch out, when i get my juices flowing there'll be more to come. it's in no particular order except i did wanna start it off with one of my favorite classics from legendary ms. gladys knight! enjoy and GOODnight!

||boyz II men - oh well||

with some break ups there's always that spark of "hope" that mistakes can be corrected and that eventually you'll find yourself back in the arms of that particular loved one. you try and you try to search for a way back to their heart but the more the days and months pass, the inevitable situates itself and the reality is there may never be that chance again. this song is by my all time favorite r&b male groups in hisssstory! (ask anyone...hah!) it's for the persistent lovers who never cease to fail, and just when you think they have...they get up and try again.

it's a bittersweet journey that many have walked but few have successfully accomplished.

but oh well...

||3T - anything for you||
