Old School Friday * The Manhattans

The Manhattans were a remarkable R&B group that I remember listening to during my college days. I suspect that many villagers have their own personal take on Let's Just Kiss and Say Goodbye. I know that the lyrics for this song apply to some periods of my life. How about you?





On the flip side, the lyrics of this next song by The Manhattans also resonate with many villagers.





Are there any groups making this type of music nowadays?

Tune In Tuesday: The Manhattans

I enjoy this weekly meme. It has been an opportunity for me to focus on some changes that I need to make in my life thru the music and lyrics of some great artists. Many of you young 'uns don't have any recollection of a group called The Manhattans. However, they told a powerful story with their rhythm and blues lyrics.

Tonight I'm feeling this particular song ... close your eyes and enjoy!



Womanist Musings created a weekly meme today called Tune In Tuesday. She noted that our blogs often deal with serious issues and it might be nice to lighten the atmosphere every once in awhile. Music has the ability to trigger happy memories and much of our lives are marked by song. To that end each Tuesday this blog intends to offer a song and tell you about what it triggers for me and in return you are welcome to share any memories that you have associated with it.
