I remember they were performing (lip syncing!) on Solid Gold one Saturday night, but I fell asleep because I had a horrid case of strep throat and a fever that topped out at 105. The next day I was checked into the hospital. I didn’t want tylenol or other meds. I just cried cause I missed Ready for the World on Solid Gold!
Awesome Jessi! I have his complete greatest hits on a double cd. Occasionally I have to break it out and act a fool in my living room 🙂

Lurve Sade.
When I was in the sixth grade, I owned the following 45’s (yes, 45’s!!!)
1. We Are The World (leave me alone, that shit was popular!!)
2. Shout by “Tears for Fears” (remember the part in the video where they are standing on the mountain top clapping?)
3. Careless Whisper by “Wham” (back when folk thought George Michael was straight…ha!)
4. Smooth Operator by “Sade” (good stuff)
5. Raspberry Beret by “Prince” (until my mom heard the rest of the songs on the album then she cracked it in half over her knee 🙁 )
6. Jungle Love by “Morris Day and the Time” (Now *that* was my song!!!)
7. In My House by “The Mary Jane Girls”
Yes, I’m a smidge old 🙂
Don’t be sure, I was sporting a Debbie Gibson hat and listening to songs like this:
