Old School
 
I was listening to the old school hour and thinking what happen to groups like New Edition. What is your favorite thing from the old school. It could be a favorite group,song or toy. Or just anything at all.
Thanks

My favorite old school song was Mr Telephone Man by New Edition....My toys are glow-worms and rainbow bright

LadyNRed 06-15-2001 04:33 PM

LOL! Okay, don't laugh...my favorite groups/songs were RUN DMC "Peter Piper" and "Supersonic" by JJFad. My favorite toy was He-Man action figures and the HUGE Castle GraceSkull(sp?) that I used to play with my neighbors instead of the dollhouse my mom bought me! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif Haha.

1. "If It Isn't Love" - New Edition
2. "Dial My Heart" - The Boyz (somebody PLEASE say you remember them!)
3. "Every Little Step" - Bobby Brown
4. "Night and Day" - Al B. Sure

And that song that went "Sign your name across my heart, I want you to be my baby..." Anybody know? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif

Of course I miss the fashions of the day - wearing my shorts rolled up to Lord knows where, layering socks in different colors, pulling the bottom of your shirt to one side and putting one of those clips on it.... MAN. Oh.. and remember hair knockers? those black elastic things with the balls on each end? I had them in every color. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

NONE of my friends will admit to knowing this song, but does anybody remember that song about "the cars that go boom"? Something about "We're Tigre and Bunny and we like.. the boom." PLEASE say someone knows what I'm talking about. I don't wanna think I made this up.

JinglesSpr99 06-16-2001 02:47 AM

LOL I forgot about a lot of these! Where any of you school house rock fans?? And back in the day when menudo use to come on abc between cartoons(that might be older than old), flava flav with the clock around his neck. One of my favorite cartoons was the littles. De La Sol is still one of my favorite groups. They are right up there with a tribe called quest. Oh yeah and the best movie Wildcats!!!!!

I had the smurfs card game! I loved those cards. I think my cousins stole them before the moved down south though. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif

I also loved the Woody Woodpecker show. Of course that's not what I called it. I always asked my mom for a butter sandwich (never said peanut butter although that's what I wanted...of course mom knew that http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif)so I could watch the "Woody Pecker Show."

I remember Another Bad Creation...didn't they sing "Aisha" and "Jealous Girl" Why do I all of a sudden feel old? I think I was in the third or fourth grade when those songs were on.

My favorite group and I am still looking for their greatest hits album:

Hi- Five "Can't Wait Another Minute"

I love to hear any real old school songs.

I am only 21 and I jam off of Johnnie Taylor and any "Smooth Grooves" album

I used to LOVE that video because EVERYBODYwho is Greek has been to at least ONE PICNIC in their lives where Ques were "out" exactly like in that video!

but hey I got something I bet you guys don't remember..

The huggabeans that Taco Bell used to give away. They were little babies with metallic colored diapers they came in Pink and I think turqouise. They had a spring of hair curled up in the middle of their head and their arms were clamps on the inside so you could hang them on things like a backpack strap or a thin pole..

anyone remember those?

That's H-town's song. Speaking of H-town, I think their first cd was the best. It had Knockin' da boots, sex bowl, and I think Giggolo or something like that.

I remember seeing them at our college's concert two years ago. They hadn't had an album out in over a year, so they had to sing a lot of their old stuff. It was funny, yet sad.

LOL@ Mr. Window...

Do you all remember when Boyz to Men first came out with Motown Philly?

That entire CD was the jam back in the early, early 90's, wasn't that at least Spring/Summer 91? (I don't think I had crossed yet.)

That Emotions song wasn't the one Mariah Carey sang?

Glen Jones was the jam, what about his other song, We've Only Just Begun...the romance is not over, we got alot, alot of love to give....

Chubb Rock was that chit,too. I remember when he was "on top" he was supposed to do our Springfest, but unfortunately, he was sick and had to cancel... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif Oh well, we ended up with Ice Cube, instead! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
