Section Theme: Flashback
15 Years Ago (1991 for those keeping track) these were some of the songs you'd hear on the radio! In 1991, no Xbox360, Satellite radios, PS2's, IPods, as a matter of fact...how did we ever survive?
Hey! They at least played more music on MTV!

Bryan Adams - Everything I Do (I Do It For You)	As with any major *sappy love song* of the year, they overkilled this on the radio. So? Why not bring back those annoying memories for you? Hehe!
Amy Grant - Baby Baby	A truly crossover year for Christian artists such as Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith.
Chris Isaak - Wicked Game	Hey! Folks may not remember the song, but they most certainly remember the video. Hehe!
Londonbeat - I've Been Thinking About You	If this song is good enough for radu, it's good enough for everyone else. Enjoy!!
Mariah Carey - Emotions	In spite of herself, she does have an amazing voice!
Tracie Spencer - This House	Let's save the world, shall we? Oh wait! We've already done that twice! Next! If you are feeling guilty, listen to this catchy song and help the cause!
Extreme - More Than Words	Let's continue our sappy love song theme, shall we? Actually, this song isn't nearly as annoying as the Bryan Adams song.
EMF - Unbelievable	A very catchy song!
Damn Yankees - High Enough	Great song!!
Boyz II Men - Motownphilly	Very catchy and a lyrical autobiography about they started!
Michael Bolton - When A Man Loves A Woman	MoJo swore she wasn't going to play another song from him ever again. Oh well! Enjoy!
The Scorpions - Winds Of Change	A poignant song for changing events at the time!
Marky Marky & The Funky Bunch - Good Vibrations	Calvin Klein underwear...NEXT! Ma's reading you know!
Aaron Neville - Everybody Plays The Fool	Great remake!
LL Cool J - Around The Way Girl	Before Marky flashing his tummy, there was LL Cool J!
Luther Vandross - Power Of Love	Hello? It's Luther!
Bonnie Raitt - Something To Talk About	Great song!

Section Theme: Flashback
20 Years Ago (1986 for those keeping score at home) these were the top songs!
When Pacman was still Pacman, and no one wanted to 3D the games! And MTV actually stood for Music Television! And their best group of VJs!
We would mention the gas prices in 1986, but there is no need to upset anyone!

 

Dionne Warwick & Friends  - That's What Friends Are For	Lionel Richie - Say You, Say Me
Mr. Mister - Broken Wings *Whatever happened to them anyways?	Whitney Houston - How Will I Know
Mr. Mister - Kyrie	Whitney Houston - Greatest Love Of All
Simply Red - Holding Back The Years	Sade - Sweetest Taboo
The Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls	Nu Shooz - I Can't Wait
Dire Straits - Walk Of Life	Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine - Conga
Simple Minds - Alive and Kicking	Janet Jackson - When I Think Of You

**IMPORTANT**

For this weekend only, please ping MoJo2001 for all music requests. Our requests diva, laurenmarlowe, would love to do it but she's away with business. She'll return next week!

The point of having music at the top of the thread is to open the thread. It is by no means the most important part of the thread. The most important part of the thread is below. That is where you can enjoy music for our Troops, Veterans, Allies, and their family members by each of the Canteen Deejays. The selections are as diverse as the Deejays playing them. So? If you don't find something at the top of the thread, either request it or just keep scrolling. Thank you!

 

Requesting Music:
This weekend only please ping MoJo2001 for all requests. laurenmarlowe isn't sick or anything awful like that. Well, it is awful actually...she's *GASP* working. UGH! Mean bosses!

This is a poem being sent from a Marine to his Dad. For those who take the time to read it, you'll see a letter from him to his Dad at the bottom. It makes you truly thankful for not only the Marines, but ALL of our troops.

Grab these before proceeding further

THE MARINE

We all came together,
Both young and old
To fight for our freedom,
To stand and be bold.

In the midst of all evil,
We stand our ground,
And we protect our country
From all terror around.

Peace and not war,
Is what some people say.
But I'll give my life,
So you can live the American way.

I give you the right
To talk of your peace.
To stand in your groups,
and protest in our streets.

But still I fight on,
I don't bitch, I don't whine.
I'm just one of the people
Who is doing your time.

I'm harder than nails,
Stronger than any machine.
I'm the immortal soldier,
I'm a U.S.! MARINE!

So stand in my shoes,
And leave from your home.
Fight for the people who hate you,
With the protests they've shown

Fight for the stranger,
Fight for the young.
So they all may have,
The greatest freedom you've won.

Fight for the sick,
Fight for the poor
Fight for the cripple,
Who lives next door.

But when your time comes,
Do what I've done.
For if you stand up for freedom,
You'll stand when the fight's done

By: Corporal Aaron M. Gilbert, US Marine Corps
USS SAIPAN, PERSIAN GULF

Hey Dad,

Do me a favor and label this "The Marine" and send it to everybody on your email list. Even leave this letter in it. I want this rolling all over the US; I want every home reading it. Every eye seeing it. And every heart to feel it. So can you please send this for me? I would but my email time isn't that long and I don't have much time anyway. You know what Dad? I wondered what it would be like ! To truly understand what JFK said in His inaugural speech.

"When the time comes to lay down my life for my country, I do not cower from this responsibility. I welcome it."

Well, now I know. And I do. Dad, I welcome the opportunity to do what I do. Even though I have left behind a beautiful wife, and I will miss the birth of our first born child, I would do it 70 times over to fight for the place that God has made for my home. I love you all and I miss you very much. I wish I could be there when Sandi has our baby, but tell her that I love her, and Lord willing, I will be coming home soon. Give Mom a great big hug from me and give one to yourself too.

Aaron
