Another prelude from our special day back in 2016, you can see our list of songs from our wedding here. The Lyrics: Thinking of you That’s all I seem to do When you’re not here I long to hold you near Baby, this time Together we must bare Holdin’ you close Takin’ time to let
Brenda Russell
I’ve been listening to Rachelle Ferrell and Brenda Russell today. Two very talented performers in my opinion, that don’t get nearly the amount of recognition that they should. Today’s post will be about Brenda Russell. I’ve been listening to Brenda Russell since the early 80’s when my Mom introduced me to her self titled album.
My Love for Music
I had a fellow blogger ask me, “You love you some music don’t you?” The answer is yes, and I mean I really LOVE it. Until recently, I thought everyone felt the same way. For some unfortunately it’s just sound. I found this quote a while ago and it’s so fitting for me. “The only
Mary J Blige – Beautiful
This song is easily one of my favorites by Mary. The song in my opinion is truly is a hidden gem unless you have seen the movie, “How Stella Got Her Groove Back.” Of course you actually have to pay attention to the music being played. I am unsure why it never made it to
Kenny Lattimore – For You
I realized today it had been a moment since I shared some of my favorite music. This is my favorite prelude song that we choose for our wedding. It brings such a big smile to my face when I hear it thinking of how perfect our day was. I loved when I got to see
Our Wedding Music

Aretha Franklin – How Long I’ve Been Waiting
This song was released in 2011, I heard it for the first time during the process of getting to know Terry. It just seemed to fit. I wanted it to be played at our wedding, however it wasn’t available for download on itunes. May Ms Aretha Franklin forever rest in peace The Lyrics: My darling,
Raphael Saadiq – Ask of You (live)
I heard this song for the first time back in the day while watching the movie “Higher Learning” and I fell in love with it. It’s hard to believe this song is now 25 years old, it’s still a favorite of mine. What’s harder to believe? That I have never heard this live version until
Calvin Richardson – We Gon’ Love Tonite
I Love this song however, I am not a huge fan of the music video. Maybe it’s because when I hear certain songs I visualize in my head how I would make the video. I suppose it’s the same as we read a book and let our imagination run wild. Then get disappointed when we
Music Q & A
Came up the the idea to have a lil fun and have our readers send in questions for us to answer. A friend Andre / AT2 was the first one to send some in. Here they are, enjoy.
Will Downing – The Blessing
One of my favorite songs that happen to be released the day we made it official as a couple. Then it became our first dance song when we got married tied the knot 4 years later. You can see our list of songs from our wedding here. The Lyrics I searched all day, and into
