Musical memories

When I was younger, I LOVED The Pointer Sisters. Absolutely adored them and thought they were the best musical group on the planet. 

Sophomore year, some friends and I performed one of their songs for our school's lip synch (and I blogged about the dark side of that almost 5 years ago!).

I had a couple of Pointer Sisters albums (on tape) and likely wore them out. 

Yesterday morning, if you'd asked me to name some Pointer Sisters songs, I would likely have listed "Jump," "I'm So Excited," and my favorite, "Neutron Dance." 

However, as Mal and I were sitting in the McDonald's Play Place waiting for his friend to arrive for their weekly meet-up, a very familiar song played on their "oldies" feed. It sounded familiar... was it The Pointer Sisters? Yes, it was!

The song is called "Dare Me." 

When I got home, I decided to look it up. I couldn't have told you that this song existed when I woke up, but as I played the video, I knew every single word!

All of this to say, I'm glad we got there early because this is one throwback I very much needed. I think that The Pointer Sisters' music stands up, and this video is SO 1980s and perfect, I love it with all of my heart. 

I'm doing you a favor here... You're welcome.
