COOL BY ASSOCIATION

1990's R&B songs I downloaded around 1am this morning and the various places I go when I hear them

1. “Anytime,” Brian McKnight (My room, forlorn at my lack of boyfriend)

2. “Always Be My Baby,” Mariah Carey (Also in my room, thinking about new boyfriend)

3. “The First Night,” Monica (Driving to school in my 1990 Subaru Justy)

4. “Too Close,” Next (Homecoming dance— dateless)

5. “No Diggity,” Blackstreet (Performing Eric Neis’ “The Grind” workout dance in Amanda Clarke’s living room- typical Saturday nigh)
