Wednesday I had a mini-spa day with Ketan because we are classy and metrosexual. Or, he’s classy and metrosexual and I didn’t have anything to do. We put on Gaelle radio and this song came on.
In case you’ve forgotten since the last time I posted about this song a year ago, this has been one of my favorite songs my entire life. It was especially perfect for Spa Day because who can be stressed when listening to Sade?
Yesterday was Miss Patti Patti’s birthday so I had to find a jam to celebrate. Obviously she had a lot of hits before this one, but I think when this song came out I was old enough to know it was out and who it was by. Basically, I just remember being in the car on the way home from the bowling alley when it would come on and my parents would turn up the radio. Every single time. Because everybody loves Miss Patti Patti. And she did her good singing on this song too.
(and she still has the best black person nosejob in all of the entertainment industry)
Wait, why don’t I own this? Y’all know Chilli is my spirit animal (but a more Relevant and Talented version, clearly). I love how T-Boz and Left Eye are smiling but Chilli is giving you full pout and smize. These doll makers knew what time it was.
This is still my favorite Janet Era. The hair, the abs, the clothes, the boobs, the album. Everything was on point. Ask me if I still know all the words to this and the choreography. Yes. Yes I do.
Chuckii Booker Radio on Pandora is everything.
