I know this one by heart. 💙💙

I know 😩😩

I guess it was originally sung by Sam Cooke, and was inspired by Lou Rawl's step-sister's 16th birthday.

Maybe that version sounds less creepy..

It's great that people are still finding it and joining in! We have not quite 3 weeks left to go. So, there's still a lot of time to participate! 😎

Yeah, the other day, the song Sixteen by Dr. Hook came on the radio. OMG..

'She was only sixteen, only sixteen
But I loved her so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know"

LMFAO

Your Goddaughter has great taste in movies, btw! I absolutely LOVE Christopher Plummer in that. Seriously, he was so great. I love the whole movie, but 100% all of the flirting before the wedding scene. Every re-watch is 🥵❤️‍🔥

We're definitely looking for more souls to join our spooky fun! 😉 If you look at my profile, you can see the calendar pinned & find the rules.

*Don't post early
*Use the #Howl-A-Ween hashtag

If you post on your own profile instead of replying to someone else's post, it's easier to find you! :)

Yikes. I know some people are super picky about things.. you should see when I talk to my kiddo about Pokémon, and I pronounce one of their names wrong. 🫠 (🤣) But it's another thing to be an asshole. Not cool. :(

Right?? 😂 Who has time to write out their full names? LMAO (I looked it up, and most sites do say “more commonly known as..”. So, I’m just gonna laugh to myself and move on with my life. 😂

SMDH

I just recently had someone tell me the “correct” way to refer to Hall & Oates. Like, I didn’t think I’d committed any crimes or anything.. but it says on this person’s page that this is just what they do. 💀😤😐

They definitely have some great stuff on this one!

I Like the "Pop!" album, because it's got a great compilation of hits from not only Chorus, but also The Innocents, The Circus, Wonderland.. I have that one on cassette.

Judas Priest earns its highest-charting single ever in the U.K. as its new version of "War Pigs" with Ozzy Osbourne debuts at #15 on the Official Singles Downloads chart and #17 on Singles Sales, marking a major career milestone for the metal icons.

Two solid choices!
(Love that you’re still making memories together!)

I rode on the back of a motorcycle, for a spin around Pompano Beach, back in the mid-90’s. The person was basically “feeding”me classic Journey, and a lot of Reggae! (His sister pretty much only played Luther Vandross). LOL
