Forever in my mind.   I still sing it today. May she RIP!

It's sort of stuck in my head now ... that was a great dance song back then.

I still sing it, too. I used to sing it to my girl when she was little, that and several others.  She grew up loving the girl groups, so many were just amazing.

It's a great song now @SoX.  The one thing about our music is that it may roam around in our head, but it's always there.  We know it, love it and can pull it up whenever we want it.
