I need to get some more NE CD's so I can reminisce about the good ole days. <br /><br />The subject of crushes will always bring up my girl cousins because we spent so much time together.

Never heard of New Edition *eek* My first crush? it was the summer of 1987, I was at the tender age of 11 when I started to swing my hips to...sing-a-long with me ladies; "Now I...had the time of my liiiiiife and i never felt this way before. Yes I swear it's the truth and I owe it all to you." *insert drums beating*<br /><br />Yes Dirty Dancing was in the theatres and Patrick Swayze owned my heart *teen dreamy sigh* I followed his career throughout my whole teenage years LOLLeontinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11772385054579881436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8405854896968003712.post-19990666548314617372010-05-14T13:16:26.413-04:002010-05-14T13:16:26.413-04:00Guys, I'm sorry.

You are seriously taking me back!<br /><br />@marissa - If they were to come out now, they'd be totally cheesy, but back then they were IT. New Edition actually revived the Boy Band craze. 'Cause after them came New Kids on the Block (same guy gave them the start), Back Street Boys and N'Sync and all the others. New Edition was the first.<br /><br />@Wendy! Bobby has always been a little nutso too me, and I never forgave him for leaving New Edition. Back then, I was firmly on Ralph's side. LOL! I did Love Bell, Biv, Devoe. And now as I type this Poison is going through my head! LOL!<br /><br />BTW, thanks for the link for Right On! I have no idea who anyone is that they're talking about now! Sigh. I am no longer hip!Lynettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16055170355906285621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8405854896968003712.post-87771060254555241082010-05-14T10:25:01.328-04:002010-05-14T10:25:01.328-04:00Now I have Ralph's "Sensitivity" run...Now I have Ralph's "Sensitivity" running through my brain on an endless loop. My earworm for the day!<br /><br />I never got hooked into New Edition, and mostly followed the guys after they went solo. Loved that first Bobby Brown album (oh, what once was!), Ralph and, of course, Bell Biv Devoe.<br /><br />Oh, and Right On! does still exist.

I listened to the 45 so much I had to buy a second one after I put skips in the first.

I did but I always imagined that I was a Jackson that I was he and Janet's (who was on Fame at the time)little sister. I never wished MJ was mine. Is that a hint that shows that even as young as I was I had some sense! I watched Growing Pains but I was never deep, deep into it.

I remember middle school dances and the song would come on and you hope that the boy that you're crushing on would ask you to dance. And when he did, you would slow dance, standing two feet apart, looking at your feet cause you're too scared to look each other in the face. Ah memories!<br /><br />My first crush was Michael Jackson only because when I was in 6th grade, I crushed on this boy named Rodney because he looked like MJ from the Beat It video. Haha! He had the jeri curl, sunglasses and the red leather jacket. He was so hot! I crushed on MJ because of Rodney. How backwards is that! Like Rodney is the one that created the look and MJ copied HIM!<br /><br />But first serious crush had to be Kirk Cameron. I watched Growing Pains just to watch him. My walls were plastered with Kirk Cameron posters and pics from Tiger Beat and other teen magazines. I don't know what it was about him but I thought he was the shiznit. Too bad he's a looney tune now (IMO).Marqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17181525468624689183noreply@blogger.com
