so.. i've been going through my collection of MP3s to find the songs i used to listen to back in the day. and there was one song that was sticking in my head. i got the start of the song and it went something like this "i'm [blank]-ing". something like "i'm wait-ing" or "i'm doing something". and it's been bugging me all last night and all this morning. so i decided to play other songs i listened to back in the day to try and refresh my memory.
i knew i was listening to Hi-Tek - Round and Round at the same time.
so i checked the date that file was modified... 8.2001. alright, that gives me a time frame: fall 2001. yes!
so i did a search for songs i played in the month of 8.2001 and i came a few tight songs i forgot about. |
Sunshine Anderson - Lunch or Dinner: tight R&B song with a slow beat |
it went something like this:
since i'm who you want
and need in your life
then we should do lunch
or dinner sometime |
after hearing this song i knew i was on the right track and that going back would be fun... like going through an old photo album.
here are some other songs i came across:
usher - you remind me
tyrese - i like dem girls
sammie - i like it
J.E. - where the party at
city high - what would you do, caramel
|
tonya mitchel - broken promises (this song is more pop than R&B but still sounds good. it's very eden's crush- and dream-like). |
(bridge)
baby you promised me
that you'd always be there for me
tell me what's on your mind
(chorus)
what happened to the "I love you"s
the hugs and kisses and the rendezvous
what happened to me and you
you said you'd never change
what happened? baby talk to me
you used to be sugar sweet
just like candy
now you're breaking my heart
with all your broken promises
|
so after going through much of the year i finally found the song: nicole rey - i'm looking. i knew it was "i'm [blank]-ing". back to this song again? |
i'm looking for someone to hold on to
i'm looking for you, i'm looking for you, i'm checking for you
i'm looking for someone that i can trust
i'm looking for you, i'm looking for you, baby it's you
i'm waiting on you to say those words
i'm waiting for you, i'm waiting for you, i'm patient for you
i'm thinking about how it would be at night
you holding me tight, squeezing me tight all through the night
i've been all around
i've been here and there and everywhere
and i have not yet found you
but still i know my heart is true
but i keep waiting, anticipating
it's getting harder
so much love inside
and i still have not yet found
someone for me, truly for me
i gotta quit fooling myself
thinking i'm gonna be fine, wasting my time
i wanna be like everybody else
i wanna fall, i wanna see, what about me?
will i ever be fully complete?
i know there's someone waiting for me
so if you're listening baby rush right over
cause i need you next to me
