Tuesday Throwback: Good Enough by Bobby Brown
Long before he shot his life to heck - along with his wife Whitney Houston - Bobby Brown made some spectacular music. In particular, his 1992 hit “Humping Around” from the album “Bobby” was a stubborn piece of ear candy that stuck to one’s brain and refused to let go. The follow-up, however, was a melodious toe-tapper that I felt was absolute R&B genius. Titled “Good Enough,” the track went to #7 on the US charts and was certified gold.
Reminisce “Good Enough.”

In 1993, an English girl group named Eternal burst onto the UK charts with its debut single, Stay. It launched a career that spanned more than 14 consecutive Top 15 singles for the group, making it one of the most successful girl groups of all time. Sisters Easther and Vernie Bennett and school friends Kéllé Bryan and Louise Nurding (also known as Louise and Louise Redknapp), made up the group.
Stay peaked at #19 on the US charts, and was one of my favorite songs of 1993.

Christian rock group David Crowder*Band’s “Foreverandever Etc.” was released last year, but is only starting to sizzle at modern rock radio. This inventive, highly amusing video accompanies this radio-friendly single involving animated versions of each band member up against angry squirrels.
Isn’t it fun?

This is Tuesday Throwback, a blast-from-the-past type of post entry that I’m going to make every Tuesday (obviously!), streaming you a hit from the best eras of music, the 1980s and 1990s! (Yeah, you 60s and 70s purists may leave now.)
For the very first song spotlighted on Tuesday Throwback, let’s go back to 1993, when a UK duo called Go West logged in an upbeat pop song that exploded across both sides of the Atlantic, peaking at #13 on the UK charts and #14 on the US charts. The track’s name was Faithful, and it was one of my favorite singles from 1993.
