A Place For Thirty-Somethings

@ nferyn and pretty H,
  ,

to be truthful almost everyone loved MJ in those days.

 @ ababoy, i'll get back to you shortly, thanks again 
infact i'll pm you right away.

Okay guys I just got in, and this turned out to be one of the most interesting placesI've been to in nairaland.
You guys made my evening especially @ababoy who happens to make everyone here excited. By the way where is Mike Okri now, he should roll out something, atleast Majek did after a long time too.

@AguMan I really enjoyed the 80's too but never enjoyed ABBA and the only reason was how do you dance to it
even when alone at home talkless of a party.

But guys I think you left out something and thats the Sooooouuuuuul Traaaaaiiiiinnn and the Don C. production.

          :-*peace and looooove!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its quite a place especially with coming in of Eletric Bugaloo.......you know this dance has still not been replaced by any as good as it because even the dance steps of Break Dance was only created out it and it never did last.
Till date its been done by very recent artists around the world without knowing its origins and the best steps.

please can someone send me the lyrics of the Temtations "papa was a rolling stone", "Masterpiece" and "America"?

awwwwwwwwww........I remember soul train with their different stages.I remember one song "house on the hill".I never seem to know their names because I was a little girl then....I am listening to Onyeka Onwenu's "choices".That song is a classic.

Just kidding you're right Onyeka is also a good artist.

Hey I'm enjoying this thread. Ijebuman I used to listen to your Live365 station; in fact I got a few emails from you being on your mailing list. I might ask you some questions in PM about a few joints that I'm looking for or trying to work out artiste etc. I also used to dj a few house parties; now slowed down though.

i don't think we need a room for thirty something here because alot of us come here to learn and get advices and on some occasions we get replies from people which we don't like so please i think it should be a general thing so that when we need some good advice u get it generally.

Thanks mate, had to wind it down , although it still exists on live365.com you have to be a paid member of the site to tune in now.

Excellent choice 

Not anymore as it only exists as a paid service, but visit www.live365.com there're still a few free ones (playing 80s soul) that you can listen to

@snazzy
Love the song!
I bet a many children were conceived because of this song

sexual healing" by Marvin Gaye

Love the video. I think at the time it was one of the better ones....And still is.
