    I brought this album when I was a teenager listened to the whole album. There are three songs on there, Give Me Some Emotion, The Love You Give to Me and Heavenly. I have loved this song since then. I had to search for it when I got my computer and was able to get it from a guy on LimeWire before it was shut down. I have so many copies so I make sure that I don't lose it.

    • @oldcat1959
      @oldcat1959  9 років тому +7

      I understand. I still have the original album. I bought it in 1980 when I was twenty years old. A guy I met told me about it and I bought it and have been a fan ever since. I might take the time and load a few of the songs up to youtube one day soon, if I can get some free time.

    2021 Im trying think if there was anyone in my past that made me feel so dam good, to make me feel so happy glowing full of love for him.
    And as I type these words I can think of only one man , I was 17, all grown & he was about 25. How could I forget him...
    I couldn't wait for the wkend , my older sis had custody of me so I lied that I stayed with a gf.
    The man looked like Ray Parker Jr. worked on the railroad.I was impress by his looks , smile , the clothes he wore. He had a slight N.C accent cus thats where he was from .
    He never tried to be sexual ly intimate with me. He just enjoyed my company. I spent nights with this man and if he was all over me it would not have been nights with him ! That was in the mid 80's.
    Since then I've married and divorce twice but "Squeaky" as I listen to this song, took me heavenly. The smiles he gave me .
    I wore this cute lil terry clothe, red & white set one day over night & he woke me up clowing around, he had it on..😂I will never forget that , we both fell out laughing..
    This crap I meet today dry as hell..Everbody so dam serious today..

    Just heard this song and it is the most beautiful love Ballard that I have ever heard. Would be a great song for the bride to march in on.
    Thank you, UA-cam.
