It's Friday (yipee!) so I needed a happy tune and this is the one ... you know when something from the past just pops into your brain at random and you can't get it out! I'm going all the way back to 1991 here so youngsters won't have a clue ... you older peeps may well remember though! The weather is dull and gloomy but inside the sun is shining and I'm bouncing along ... (not literally - I don't 'bounce' in that way - unfortunately) but you get the picture ... have a listen ...
Amy Grant - Baby Baby ....
My hubby dislikes this kind of tune ... it's one for the girls after all ... with a proper dose of corny lyrics ...
Baby, baby, the stars are shining for you, and just like me I'm sure that they adore youSee what I mean! Have to say I would never have thought to verse my feelings for the hubby quite so poetically, whilst walking through a forest or otherwise! Corn aside what a happy tune, happy cheesy corny tune don't you think? It makes me smile, sway and sing along every time and I've always loved all those key changes since 1991, good grief I was so young and everything was so plump and fresh back then! And see that magnificent corkscrew perm of Amy's? I was the proud owner of a very similar creation (as I'm sure many of us were) - the more defined the curl the better - remember? Also had a pair of those slightly questionable stone-wash high waisted jeans too ...! Didn't we all?!
Baby, baby, go walking through the forest, the birds above a' singing you a chorus ...
Can't help myself - been singing out loud at the top of my voice all day, doing the hoovering, loading the dishwasher, even running up to the loo ... the dog thinks I've gone mad! Laugh if you will ...who cares I'm on a '90s girl' high!!
Do you remember this tune? Has it brought back memories of corkscrew perms and stone-wash high waisters? Are you on a '90's girl' high right now?
