Straight talk part 2:the conclusion
Before I go on, I would like to say rest in peace to Dolly Parton. Now being at the uncurable optimist and dreamer and wish her that Shirley Kenyon’s character is in the movie one after my own heart by the way she goes to the Chicago Bridge while she’s still looking for work and you know it does makes her wish and the reporter that she meets played by James Woods named Jack. I think she’s trying to kill herself and then you know after that whole thing I think I covered that in the last article part one of this so she goes to a diner in search of I did cover this now now and so just in case I didn’t sure Kenyon’s character goes to a radio station was hiring a receptionist then after she screws up as a receptionist before she leaves, she asked the reception if she if she can have a cup of coffee, she goes into the studio. The engineer is looking for this doctor radio doctor that the Radio manager hired played by Griffin Dunn, the radio manager and Shirley Kenyon is on the air, giving advice and the radio boss hears here in his car and has a funny solo act in his car like saying funny stuff for instance, what is going on over there when he’s trying to call him because you know nobody wants to speak to Shirley Canyon And he’s talking to himself had a vision his own dial. All he saying I can be saying this stuff just just a really way a funny way to enter the movie and Griffin done. Does a great job. You know one man comedy dialogue to himself in his in his Cadillac on the way back to work.

The underrated Dolly Parton Movie "Straight Talk"
In 1992 Dolly Parton did a movie called straight talk and it is one of my favorite pictures of all time. In a nutshell, the movie is about Shirley Kenyon played by Dolly Parton who used to be a dancer in some town in the southern regions of the United States and so in the beginning of the motion picture she’s on the dance floor supposed to be dancing, but she’s giving advice and so then she gets fired for it unwillingly thinking she’s giving advice to the boss, but she’s actually like you know advising her way out of a job Laugh out loud and then she goes home to her live in boyfriend Steve played by Michael Madsen and then they have a fight and so Shirley Kenyon takes her life back in her own hands. She takes the money she has made and gets her in her car packs up and takes his bowling ball, which is a running joke because she left his bowling ball through the whole thing and went to achieve her dreams in Chicago and quite frankly, I would do that myself if I could.

Prince reigns at the 2007 NFL Superbowl half time show
To me Prince’s 2007 performance at the Super Bowl was the best performance of all time and I say not only because I am a lifelong Prince fan but also because his performance was the best ever and they are still talking about it. His performance was nothing short of supernatural and phenomenal. I don’t remember which football teams were playing against each other that year but this Prince was the thing to remember and the only reason why I watched at all just to see Prince kick ass as he had always done and should still be here, May Prince rest in Power and Peace.

Enough Is Enough
Introduction This is just a piece I have been considering for a few days because I feel I have finally completed my vinyl record collection. Although the reality is that I will still buy vinyl, CDs and the odd download which I will burn to CD, it just that I have finally got hold of all the vinyl albums that have difficult to get hold of presentations.

The Essence of Vaporwave and Synthwave Music
Back in 2025, I was adding songs to my playlist until I ran into a genre that immediately attracted me: vaporwave. This microgenre emerged in the early-2010s, which reminds everyone of 1980s and 1990s nostalgia. When you watch any vaporwave video either on YouTube or YouTube Music, the aesthetics are usually neon, pinks, purples, and blues. Vaporwave music has slow tempos, which what I love the most about it. It's almost like you've gone inside a time machine, and you were transported to the decade you grew up in. Vaporwave music is perfect to listen to while you're sleeping, cleaning up the house, or at work. I in love with nostalgia and this subgenre is helps me relax. If you were to ask me which artists I currently listen to, I would say that I wasn't familiar with anyone. Meanwhile, synthwave emerged around the mid to late 2000s. It's mainly associated with soundtracks of some of your favorite movie genres of the 1970s and 1980s, such as action and science fiction.

10 Obscure 90s Alternative Rock Tracks With an Emo Tinge. Top Story - October 2026.
While grunge went mainstream in the 90s, hundreds of pop-punk, post-hardcore and early-emo bands were bubbling under the radar, waiting for their genre to have its turn in the spotlight. Unfortunately, many of these bands dissolved before the culture shifted in the mid-2000s. We can't go back in time and change the course of history, but we can enjoy their albums today--and I think it's time for the Internet to appreciate what these groups contributed to the music world.

Are CD (Compact Disc) Becoming Collectible Now?
My husband has an old soul. He likes listening to old music from the ’70s, think soft rock, classic ballads, and the kind of melodies that make you want to roll down the car windows and sing along.
