Old School Music

I'm sorry, but if you don't agree with me then I feel that you don't know music, but old school R&B is the centerpoint of the universe musically. I know I will catch hate for it, but you can't deny that your parents were listening to either A) Luther B) Teddy C) Lenny Williams D) Isleys E)Temptations; etc. when you were concieved; which means that you do have a bit of soul in you ;)
As I set my winamp to shuffle my oldies mix, I almost forget that you can get emotions through songs. Honest truth, I bet if you sit and listen to Stevie Wonders "I Just called to say" I bet your next move is to your cell phone! Thats powerful, even "These Three Words" can bring a tear to your life. Music has lost its touch, even my favorite R&B singers are NO WHERE near this level of songdom (is that a word?). Damn, I need to put this lyric out there just to show you how powerful this song is...."The One, for whom you give your very life, could be taken, in a twinkling of an eye; through your tears you ask "why did you go?" knowing you didn't always show, much you love them so"

If you just imagine that scenerio, I bet it will bring a tear to your eye, for we have are going through it. *needs to get more tissue*

Not to mention the emotion, but daydreaming to old songs....makes you realize how good the artist where. Every old school jam I have a day dream about it. I can't even begin to describe the visions or thoughts in my head. Not that they are ranchy or anything (depends on the song, I mean, Minnie Ripperton - Inside my Love......: ) ) but the songs and instruments flow together in a way that takes you to another place.

Sorry, I know this entry is kind of all over the place; but hey...Smokey is playin'....
