A to Z Song Challenge: I is for I Want You



 

Okay, so “I” was giving me fits.  There were so many songs, it was hard to narrow them down. 


I mean, there’s I Need Love by LL Cool J (I remember that was the first rap song I knew all the words to), Inside My Love by Minnie Riperton (one of my all-time favorites), In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins, Imagination by Earth, Wind & Fire (old school favorite), In a Sentimental Mood by Duke Ellington (love it!), I Tried by Anthony Hamilton (big fan of his), I like it, by DeBarge (so many memories), I Can’t Help It by Michael Jackson (Off the Wall album was THE best)… really, I could go on.

In the end I chose a classic.  It was originally made my Marvin Gaye.  I rarely like when my songs are remade, but I absolutely LOVE a version done by Kirk Whalum, so I’m including both of them for your listening pleasure.  So…….

A to Z Song Challenge: G is for Golden Time of Day


 

I really don’t think I need words for Maze featuring Frankie Beverly.  Okay, here’s two—awesome band.  One of THE best bands I’ve ever heard.   

This is one of my favs.  It reminds me of summertime and cruising.
