Lots of 80s, Welcoming the 90s

Back in the day of cassette tapes I had this one. I received it as a gift because of this song, which was the next-to-last song on the cassette's second side. Mom & Dad knew I enjoyed the song, so there I was tearing wrapping paper away from a tiny cassette with Whitney's face atop it. In order to listen to the song I'd grown to most enjoy from listening to the radio, I'd be listening to the many others on the cassette - because that's what I knew, even in manipulating the play-and-listen and turn-over-the-cassette aspect. Therefore, I'd then be listening to this song quite often. It appeared as the first song on the cassette's second side. I wasn't nearly as much a fan of this song, though I accepted that it made sense to listen to it in order to get further along on the cassette's side. I'm sure my method wasn't the best, though it's the best that I managed.

Incidentally, thanks to 80s weekends & lunch hours, along with this song, I contend that I've possibly listened to these songs as well as many other, similar songs, more in recent years, than I did back in the actual 80s. I think of this plenty all the while hearing the tune on the radio in present day; I wasn't so much a fan of it during its prime in the 80s, &, as I'm listening to it radiating from my vehicle's speakers, I'm considering all over again how much I'm not that big a fan of the tune. 😖😂

This song is one that I heard in the 80s, & a few times since then, though I just heard it recently & considered how it's a song I've not heard nearly to the degree I've been "overhearing" this song or this song. With the former song I hear a bit of it & picture some of the music video as well as recall how a company cut its ties with the artist because of how she chose to depict her song's meaning within her music video.

70s music never had such caliber as what 80s music has been made out to be, at least not imho 😂 [read: in my humble opinion]. So many of these songs could make up a "70s weekend". I can hear the horse crying out for this song. 😂 They're played on the "oldies station" you say? The "oldies stations" are playing the 40s, 50s, & 60s, or at least, they should be. 😎😁 It's been nearly 30 years since the 80s came to a close. When will the decade lose its substance enough to drop out of the radar for the last 30 years of music to have "a weekend" or even a measly week of "lunch hour" play time? Just some food for thought. 😋

In my newsfeed I happened across this YouTube video, which I think is filled with plenty of talent, as well as lots of 90s music. I'm of the camp that there could also be 90s weekends & 00s lunch hours. In fact, I'd thought once the new millennium began, radio stations would "switch" & play 90s music as they had been playing 80s music for the past decade. This didn't happen; they didn't do it. 😞 Still, y'all should keep this video handy for whenever you've an urge & need a 90s "fix". 😎😂
