Old School Friday: Prom or something like it.
So I graduated high school after 1999 and in elementary school they randomly decided my year that our prom with our parents invited wasn't "Christian" enough. But I'mma pretned like we had a prom, and that it ws the best eighth grade prom ever.
This was the year in which Spice Girls, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, NSync and Christina Aguilera all collided. Missy, Ginuwine, Nas, and Blackstreet all released albums that school year. Remembering my elementary school, where we sang round of "No Scrubs" and "No Pigeons" in between Kirk Franklin's "Revolution" and whatever Mr. Vegas song we were deciphering and drumming the beats out on desks, if we chose our prom songs there would have been a nice little mix.
The kids would have probably gone for these choices:
Oh Foxy, your lip gloss was poppin.
Okay, yea no way theyd actually play these songs. This was probably as hype as we could get.

Oh my...some of these songs are going to make me feel so OLD!!!
ReplyDeleteGood choices though...Happy OSF!
Kim,
ReplyDeleteI like the high energy of your picks Kim. I'm not old like Marvalus (LOL!)
Have a great weekend.
I was a big fan of Foxy Brown! And I loved "Heads High" (That was the club banger)! I think I even posted Mr.Vegas for a previous OSF.
ReplyDeleteYou know, that is one of the main things I love about OSF--our range of ages. Thanks for your great choices!
ReplyDeleteAgreed. The range of ages is great! I always learn something new!
ReplyDeleteFoxy Foxy...sigh.
