ALBUM OF THE DAY: FAITH


Do you want to hear a story? As I mentioned earlier, I was semi-famous in seventh grade due to my Lip-Synch of Chicago.

Well, I was at a school dance and my friends were daring me to ask a cheerleader to dance. I picked my target (who I will call Laurie J.) and when "Careless Whisper" by Wham! was playing, I took the walk and asked her to dance.

"Hi Laurie," I said.

She looked at me like I had toads growing out of my ears.

"Would you like to dance?" I asked, hoping that she couldn't sense the fear.

She smiled at me and said, "I have to go to the restroom," and walked away.

From that moment on, I promised myself that I would never listen to another Wham! song again.

I only relive this horrible moment in my life to prove a point. I forgave George Michael. It wasn't his fault that Laurie was a mean cow and probably living a sad pitiful life with fifteen cats and no one to love.

Not that I'm bitter. I have a great wife and kids, but as a seventh grader, it hurt bad.

Anyway, Faith is a great album with a number of great songs, my personal favorite being "Kissing a Fool."

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go see my therapist.
