Hi everyone! I hope all is well for you. Happy Romantic Tuesday! Is there a song or two out there that gives you goosebumps? There are several songs that give me that feeling. Lately, Bruno Mars’ “Versace on the Floor” is one of them. I LOVE the beat and some of its lyrics. The song was released in June on Bruno Mars’ third album, “24K Magic.” So far the song’s received good reviews. Several music writers said it gives them an 80 or 90’s vibe. Some writers compared the song to Boyz II Men and Michael Jackson. Sasha Geffen from MTV News said the track was “delightfully smooth” and it’s powered by a keyboard tone that should instantly give flashbacks to eighth grade slow dances. Desire Thompson from Vibe said the lyrics are seductive and the song evokes 80’s nostalgia. I also think “Versace on the Floor” sounds a little bit like Michael Jackson. I think back to the “Thriller” album ballads like “Human Nature” and “The Girl is Mine” when I listen to this one. Have you heard this song before? Is it being played on the radio stations in your area? What do you think of it? Have a great day, everyone and I’ll see you soon!

I don’t know, it was just his voice… perhaps “Isn’t she lovely”.

Now that I think about it, I hear him too! Which Stevie Wonder song does it remind you of? I’m thinking “I Just Called to Say I Love You.” It’s really popular over here right now. 😍
