And when the singers of those songs are silenced forever…you know you can never truly go back to those times with them actually singing those songs to you….and you will have to rely on old CDs, and Youtube, and XM, and the radio….And then you cry…and feel sad.and listen to their music however you can…but most importantly you LIVE, albeit differently…but knowing life will never be the same. Songs will take you back to where you were at the time – be it a 16 year old girl in love for the first or second time….a 20 year old woman contemplating sex for the first time….or a 24 year old woman….in her first career, navigating life, and bills, and relationships…. I danced my college years away to Erotic City…and tried out as a dancer to Baby I’m a Star.Īnd so it is….I lose a piece of myself every time I lose one of my childhood/teen idols because I lose a piece of my own mortality. And once again, I LIVED to his songs – had my first date to see Purple Rain.and then a second for Under the Cherry Moon (which I didn’t get and neither did anyone else – smile). I was in awe of his talent and his ability to play every instrument. He adorned my teenage walls right alongside Michael Jackson. And I find myself here yet again….Prince was always different to me…but I could not deny the magnetic charm and sheer artistry he presented. I lose a piece of myself every time I lose one of my childhood/teen idols because I lose a piece of my own mortality.Īnd now there’s Prince. I wanted her smile, her girl next door beauty.and even though she struggled to dance (smile), she commanded everyone’s attention when she opened her mouth. First ones were gifts from the neighborhood boy vying for my heart….as I pined for another over Where Do Broken Hearts Go.sang her songs in the bathroom mirror into my hairbrush. Whitney Houston…I had EVERY album she ever put out. I grew up on Michael Jackson…idolized him…wanted to dance like him…waited with baited breath every time he released a new video and watched with all of America while his electricity captured our minds and hearts. I fell in love again (three times the charm)…married to one of his songs.and then promptly lost the best mother I ever had. ![]() I fell in love again to Gerald Levert….twice….and again had to mend a broken heart. This album 'Stroke Of Genius' and the previous albums listed by him is what I would just listen to, and 'The Best of Levert' that I also have. ![]() Luther Vandross provided the music to everything that went on (first loves, first dates, broken hearts). All those previous albums by Gerald Levert are also good albums, and I also have a CD called 'The Best of Levert'. I fell in love in my teen years to Luther Vandross…and promptly had my heart broken for the 1st time. I think it’s because I grew up listening to their songs…singing along to them…LIVING to them. Luther Vandross…Gerald Levert…Michael Jackson…Whitney Houston…and now Prince. I’ve been trying to understand why certain entertainer’s deaths hurt me so much.
