The Shirelles

 


Time for a quick music post. Before I find a nice Christmas movie to watch...or another True Crime documentary. 

Starting with Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow. Every generation has this song...the 80's had Lisa Lisa's I  Wonder If I Take You Home. My generation has a few but I'm drawing a blank for any specific songs. I didn't really grow up on the Shirelles- I think I know this song from movies/tv shows. I'm on the Wikipedia page now and just learned that this was the first song by an Afro-American girl group to make the Billboard 100. Breaking Barriers. Classic. Also...love the 1960 winged liner look. Also classic.


Next up, Mama Said. I think I first heard this song around elementary school. I've liked it ever since! Pretty sure I first heard it in a movie first too! 


Such an interesting group.  They really should do a movie on this group......I would definitely watch it! They definitely have more songs worth giving a listen. These are just my standout faves.
