Can you name the artist and song:

Memories of the year that lays behind us
Wishes for the year that’s yet to come
And it stands to reason that good friends in season
Make you feel that life has just begun

Last Song: “Christmas in Hollis” by Run-D.M.C. from A Very Special Christmas (1987)

Great job Craig (@cdennis0130)!!!

Decorate the house with lights at night
Snow’s on the ground, snow white so bright
In the fireplace is the yule log
Beneath the mistletoe as we drink eggnog

Everyday I walk her home from school
And she tells me how she really feels
And there’s no doubt in my mind
That this girl is one of a kind

Can you name the artist and song:

‘Cause in the space of a year
I’ve watched the old me disappear
All of the things I once held precious
Just don’t mean anything anymore

Last Song: “It’s Tricky” by Run-D.M.C.

Great job Kickin’ It Old School (@oldschool80s)!!

Can you return the song and lyrics from Princess Diana’s favorite band?

In touch with the ground
I’m on the ____ __ _____ ___

Here is yesterday’s…

Wind Beneath My Wings by Sheena Easton:

Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
And everything I’d like to be,
I can fly Higher than an Eagle

Here is the Bonus:

It’s Tricky by Run D.M.C.

I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said “It’s not that easy”
It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time

Question: In The Breakfast Club, what character used her cleavage to apply lipstick?

Last Question: What brand of sneakers did Run-D.M.C. wear in the music video for “It’s Tricky”?

Answer: Adidas

“it’s Tricky” was one of 4 hits from Run-D.M.C.’s triple platinum album Raising Hell. Adidas formed a long-term relationship with Run–D.M.C. and hip hop. Not only did Run-D.M.C. sport the sneakers in their videos and wherever you saw the rappers, but they also had a song dedicated to the sneaker – “My Adidas”.

Here is the song, “It’s Tricky” – one of my favorites by the group:

And here is “My Adidas”:
