Okay...I've hit bottom..and the "Temptations are going to Save Me!

[KoKo]

Are there any "Temptations" fans out there......who can take me back to that time..to get me out of my FunK?

Every "once in awhile" I gotta' get back to roots.....and it's a cross between the "Temptations" ERA......and the 80's...EVERYTHING MUSIC....

Sorry....don't come down here often.......but....I'm very nostalgic.

I don't think ANYONE ON DU has my love of "Temptations and 80's like I do!.......Sad......:-( Vanity post....cause I'm really down........

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. Put on some Culture Club..it will cheer you up!

Church of the Poisoned Mind might be good right about now! :hi:

[KoKo]

3. OMG! Love you many kisses......I LOVE CULTURE CLUB!.....but I go deeper

it's that Southern Thing.....but Oh Yeah! I've got Temptations on now....while I'm posting.

So much of Culture Club......."Church of the Poisened Mind" and all of it.......I've got a glass of wine....one of many and I'm rocking to Temptations......but it will go on....sort of KoKo's FREAK OUT!

But .....so much thanks that you understood.....I'm really down.......really........:-(

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

20. KOKO I hate it when you get down!

If I could do anything to lighten it I would. :loveya:

[MoonAndSun]

2. Don't be down, KoKo01,

I'll be very happy to listen to "The Temps" with you!!

I also love Aretha - when she belts out "you'd better think about what you're trying to do to me" I just can't help but sing along!!

[KoKo]

5. Thanks for Aretha.......yeah she's one of my favorites, too. but it's the

Temptations with my many glasses of wine for awhile at least.........

So glad to hear that my favorite Music folks are here.....because....I feel very "out of it" tonight...

thanks!

[KoKo]

4. If I could just get "Dem Bones" down here....she knows my Southern pain...

and could identify with the music...........Dem Bones spent time in the South years ago when I did.....I'm really sad....tonight....really.

:-(

[KoKo]

6. The Sun is Shining ......there's Plenty of light..the birds are singing

and there's Plenty of Light! OMG .........send me into ..........whatever!..........So sad....so sad

Determination is fading, Inspiratation is a thing of the past! Can't see How My Hopes gonna Last!

[KoKo]

7. Good things are BAD and what's HAPPY is SAD!........I'm down.....

stuff is really bad today.......:-(

[Deb]

8. Hey Girl,

War is a ball of confusion.

Bring over some of your old Motown records, we'll put the speakers in the window then we'll go, on the roof and listen to the Miracles echo through the alley down below.

[KoKo]

9. OMG! that's what I need tonight.....ON THE ROOF......UP ON THE ROOF!

VERY NOSTALGIC....too much Wine......but I'm sort of trying to go back....NOSTALGIA.......GIVE ME BACK AMERICA!
But ......sadly......America doesn't belong to me and the Temptations, Culture Club.....and the other stuff......us Mids...Olders..are having some big problems......which is why I'm depressed...and really down and Low.....tonight........:-(.......yeah.......

[Deb]

13. ((Hugs))

I hear ya. You know it occurred to me the other night, I haven't gone dancing since the last election.

We should plan on a DU inauguration party, I think alot of us have waited too long.

[KoKo]

21. Dancing is SO GOOD....Why don't we dance more...jump up and down.....

to me it would be healthy....and why doesn't our American Culture support it.......too much fun!

Give me some wine or beer and I'm ready to grab someone to dance my cares away! I love it...beat of the music...and the exercise......it's hard to get most American Males to get into it, though!

Many other cultures love dance! Why can't we? :-( Good emotional outlet....when things are bad....imho.....

[KoKo]

10. My Head is Spinning to "My Girl" by the Temps....and I'm "outta Brain!"

I don't need no body.....I got all the riches one man can claim! Oh yeah! Send me off on that!

[KoKo]

11. It was JUSt MY IMAGINATION! RUNNING AWAY WITH ME! THAT I might

find sympathy here on DU ........Here in Lounge......LOL's......we gotta be STRONG..and whateve.....

[mlawson]

12. But we are finally on the verge of Liberation!

This CIA story -- Wilsongate -- this is the ONE!!! Trust me! bush is TOAST!!! Yeah, it's me typing this, the in-house pessimist... This time he's going down!!! So please try to cheer up, and enjoy the fun; it's going to be a wild ride!

[KoKo]

[KoKo]

18. Thanks....been dancing around my room...you cheered me!

Really.....just needed a night to "cut out" and have music fun........and have a breakdown....

Healthy to do that once in awhile ...I'm told. Don't do it often....but was looking to share.

Many thanks and :-)'s

[KoKo]

15. BTW! I did have too much wine tonight.....so I'm rocking away in reverie!

I don't usually do this.....but I needed a GOOD CRY ......tonight.....don't know quite why......

I'm not doing it anywhere but here in the "Lounge" so my usualy "STIFF FACE" isn't apparent!

:-)'s .......through my wine tears........really down............:-(

[KoKo]
