Song of the Day: "Dreamin'" by Vanessa Williams


The former Miss America has had seven Top 40 hits so far, but this one is definitely my favorite.


Fun fact: The song was originally performed by the family group Guinn two years before, appearing in their eponymous1986 debut album.

Song of the Day: 'Work to Do' by Vanessa Williams


Upon finishing my "lunch hour" yesterday at home work, I spontaneously burst into this song, one I hadn't thought of in 25 years  or so. (Did you know it was an Isley Brothers cover?) Now it can be stuck in your head, too!
