@slobberchops nominated me for this great challenge! He knows I enjoy my music, and it's also a good way of getting involved in the Steemit community; which is great as I'm a very new member.
When I was in my early teens I lived in Canada, having moved there from the UK with my parents when I was younger. Breakdancing had begun to become a bit of a craze in the early 80s where I lived, and a friend Billy Emigh introduced me to it, and this song. I remember learning to do the caterpiller, the wave and bodypopping for the first time to this song, and my love for both early hip-hop/rap and breakdancing was born. In its own right though, this is a belter of a tune, and I still listen to it these days, and yep, fondly reminisce of the days when I was fit and agile enough to be able to break dancing. These days the only body popping I really do is the cracking of my bones caused by old age, but the days of breakdancing in the street with my friends still remains a fond memory.
I hereby nominate @trolleydave for this challenge!
I don't really know too many people on here, so will nominate the only other person I really know beyond the few I've chatted with. So I nominate @blauweranger for this challenge! If you would like to be included in this fun challenge feel free to let me know and I will nominate you!
The rules:
- Choose one song from your high-school/college years.

- Write your text while listening to the song. As soon as the song ends, wrap up what you where writing and submit it.
- Do this for 7 days in a row if you get nominated
- Mention one person who should do this on each day.
- Tag it with #musicwaybackchallenge and include these rules at the bottom of your post
