Feeling Musical & A Shout to T

So, this is somewhat of an oldie...just a year or two. I'm jamming at my desk this afternoon and thought I needed to give this song its due.

See, today is what would have been my 10 year wedding anniversary.

Let's all take a moment, pause, and say hip, hip hooray that today is just another Thursday and not a milestone.

I'm not bitter but those of you who know the history know that this truly is a bootiful thing, for it to be a normal Thursday.

Anyway, this song was one of those that helped me get my life back to where I wanted and needed it to be.

Don't you just love how music and songs are the soundtrack to our lives?

Well, at least in my life they are.

By now you have probably figured out I love music. I'm a jamming fool. I can't carry a tune but that doesn't stop me from grooving.

So, without further delay, I say thanks to all the artists and especially want to recognize Mariah Carey for this song.

It's as fitting today as it was back then. Especially considering some of the drama that is trying to enter my life right now.

Here's to leaving it all behind...

Mariah Carey - It's Like That Lyrics
(feat. Fatman Scoop, Jermaine Dupri)
[Jermaine Dupri:]
Dis is, the point when I need everybody get to the dance
floor
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
Da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
Like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all) MC

[Mariah Carey:]

[Verse 1:]
I came to have a party
Open up the Bacardi
Feeling so hot tamale
Boy, I know you watchin me
So what's it gonna be?
Purple taking me higher
I'm lifted and I like it
Boy, you got me inspired
Baby, come and get it
If you're really feelin me

[Bridge:]
Cuz it's my night
No stress, no fights
I'm leavin it all behind
No tears, no time to cry
Just makin the most of life

[Chorus:]
Everybody is livin it up
All the fellas keep lookin' at us (cuz)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinnin the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

[Verse 2:]
You like this and you know it
Caution, it's so explosive
Them chickens is ash and I'm lotion
Baby, come and get it
Let me give you what you need
It's a special occasion
Mimi's emancipation
A cause for celebration
I ain't gonna let nobody's drama bother me

[Bridge:]
Cuz it's my night
No stress, no fights
I'm leavin it all behind
No tears (no tears), no time to cry
Just makin the most of life

[Chorus:]
Everybody is livin it up
All the fellas keep lookin at us (cuz)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinnin the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

[Bridge:]
Cuz it's my night (it's my, it's my night)
No stress, no fights
I'm leaving it all behind
No tears (no tears), no time to cry
Baby, I'm making the most of life

[Chorus:]
Everybody is livin it up (I said everybody)
All the fellas keep lookin at us (lookin at us)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinning the cut
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)
It's like that y'all (that y'all), that y'all (that y'all)
It's like da da da da, I like that y'all (that y'all)

This is my night

[Fatman Scoop:]
Let's Go Now (what), let's go now (what)
Here we go now (what), here we go now (what)
Let's Go Now (what), let's go now (what)
Here we go now (what), here we go now (what)

[Fatman Scoop and Mariah:]
Let's Go Now (what), let's go now (what)
Here we go now (what), here we go now (what)
Let's Go Now (what), let's go now (what)
Here we go now (what), here we go now (what)

T, I jinxed myself last night. Guess what I stepped in this morning around 3:30 AM on my way to the bathroom?
