Dirrty takes me back to being 15/16 and out in the big city. Flo ridas low was late 2000s though, I remember only too well as that song for me sucked into dd1s dad.

Not even an 00s song but there was typically the obligatory I'm gonna be (500 miles) played everywhere, me and my pal would phone my dm and sing it to her, she went to school with the proclaimers and hates that song Grin

juniorcakeoff · 22/01/2022 21:38

R&B for the warm up - Aaliyah more than a woman or Toni Braxton he wasn't man enough...TLC No Scrubs....Destiny's child - Jumpin or Survivor or most things...Ol Dirty Bastard -Got Your Money
Garage for later: All I do-Bump N Flex, Miss Dynamite (?) - Boo, Sweet Female Attitude-Flowers
My teenagers laugh at the old R&B
