    I know it's strange but this song always makes me think of a small earthquake I experienced in 1986 in Goleta, California. I had my stereo blasting and I remember this song playing. Then the whole house shook violently for about five seconds. I thought it was because I had the music so loud. Turns out it was a small earthquake lol.

    Shannon was the soundtrack of my B-Boy days, as a breaker in Miami and New York City. I once battled the famous Powerful Pexter from The New York City Breakers - he schooled me and i learned from him. He taught me his famous windmill - to backspin - to kneel freeze (see the main battle in the movie, Beat Street (1984)).

    On this day in 1984 {April 21st} Shannon performed "Give Me Tonight" on Dick Clark's ABC-TV Saturday-afternoon program, 'American Bandstand'...
    At the time the song was at position #17 on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart, three weeks later it would peak at #6 {for 2 weeks} and on April 29th it reached #46 {for 2 weeks} on the Top 100...
    And on the same 'Bandstand' show she performed "Let The Music Play"; two months earlier on February 19th, 1984 the song peaked at position #8 on Billboard's Top 100 chart, and on January 29th, 1984 it reached #2 {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart, and the two weeks it was at #2, the #1 record for both those weeks was "If Only You Knew" by Patty LaBelle...
    Besides the above two records, the Washington, DC native had five other records on the Hot R&B Singles chart; "My Heart's Divided" {#48 in 1984}, "Do You Wanna Get Away" {#13 in 1985}, "Stronger Together" {#26 in 1985}, "Urgent" {#68 in 1985}, and "Prove Me Right" {#82 in 1986}...
    Shannon, born Shannon Brenda Greene, will celebrate her 61st birthday next month on May 2nd, 2019...

    Late '83 early '84. Wonderful days and memories of being in the Air Force during that era.
