Never take any moment for granted.

Music Monday | Lyrics that move me

One of my favorite Foreign Exchange  songs....

Just imagine the possibilities (talking about the possibilities)
If you would only let down your guard I always say my love is easy babe
You don’t have to make it so hard (so hard yeah) I know you wont nothing else
But you can try and tell yourself its all a game (all a game)
I know you been only wishing For a love that goes the distance
Call my name Cause I am in love with you
{Foreign Exchange, Maybe she’ll dream of me}

Music Monday | J Dilla, Happy Birthday Sir

He would have been 37 today.

The musical genius that was J Dilla, Jay Dee, or Dilla as I call him, was born James Dewitt Yancey this day in 1974. His gift is unmatched, and the music world still feels the lost of this great, who passed away February 10th, 2006 with complications from Lupus
Here's to you Dilla, the gifts you left are jewels, and everytime I hear them, I'm amazed and captured all over again. Happy Birthday Sir. Now mix, with the heavenly choir.
