    There was that time...late 70s into early 80s...performers like Patrice Rushen, or Champaign, or Evelyn "Champagne" King, or The Whispers, or Midnight Star, or Teena Marie, or so many others...their sounds were so fresh and new, many of them like a bridge between R&B and New Wave, all very solid musicians. They EARNED their success and didn't have to rely on gimmicks. Play them for an audience today and people respond.

I didn't think anything of it at the time, but I always remembered this song & I would ALWAYS think about her when I heard it. As I've gotten older & became an adult, I truly feel this song that I heard the morning after she passed was a message from her telling me that she loved me & for me not to forget her...

      Your story is, well, Unforgettable. So sad, yet, it's Ike a message from the Lord, reminding you to always remember that sweet, loving God grandmother who raised you.
      I'm so sorry you were faced with her passing at such a tender age.
      This song will be my reminder to think of you, and hold you in my prayers, Ariana. Shalom! 💜🕊💜

I played much of my music for her daily throughout the weeks. After some time, this is a song I played that made her come alive and begin to live again as she danced to it!

She twirled to the music and was flamboyant and slide across the floor. Her hair was flying all over. Elizabeth could spin around like a top.Everyone gasped at the sight of her amazing moves. She dance for about 7 minutes with out skipping a beat. She danced back to her chair. Everyone was stunned at her performance.
