Top Ten Tuesday: Drake "Fake Love"

This is a 9.5 minute video. It's mostly not the song. But the song is in there. It's like two full scenes and then the song plays for the rest. But half of the song plays over credits. So I mean, it's like on some albums where there are Skits between songs. Only the skits are several minutes long in this case.


Enjoy!

Throwback Thursday: 1992 (8 Weeks at #1)

I had this album (Totally Krossed Out) and the follow-up (Da Bomb) on cassette and I listen to them. A LOT. So this one is near and dear to me.

Also, it looks like this was the first song of the 90's to spend more than 7 weeks at #1!

Kris Kross - Jump (4/25-6/13)

Top Ten Tuesday: Ed Sheeran "Shape of You"

This one DEBUTS at #1. And with good reason. This song is catchy as hell. I hope it is a huge hit and people associate it with 2017 for years to come!

Top Ten Tuesday: Migos feat. Lil Uzi Vert "Bad and Boujee"

A coworker was singing the hook to this song at work the other night and now here it is going from 13->2! Good job Alexa! Way to keep up on these things :)

This song doesn't do much for me, but I think it might be interesting to look at in 5 years as sign of the times.
