My First Kiss

Sixth grade will always have a special place in my heart. Outside of me sprouting my first signs of facial hair, it also marked the year of my first kiss. I mean sure, I had kissed girls in the past, but had never experienced … (dare I say) … the tongue. But I was 12 years old, and feeling frisky; so in my eyes, it was time for me to become a “man.”

Her name was Renata, and everything about her oozed perfection. (Ok, I know she was only 11, but in my mind she was practically a Victoria’s Secret model). I won’t go into the sordid details of our 15 second love affair; just know that it forever changed my life (And that Renata told everyone in the school that I had magic lips … just thought I’d share with you that little tidbit.)

So in commemoration of that special moment with Renata, I decided to create a soundtrack using some of my favorite obscure love songs that still evoke pleasant memories of my sometimes awkward journey through puberty.

Subway- “Fire”

Miche’le- “Something In My Heart”

Perfect Gentlemen- “Ooh La La”

My Request- Ok Fly Guy Readers, now it’s your turn. Share with us some of your memories, as well as songs that still stir up fond memories of young love.

    I love those songs FG! OMG, I thought I was the only one that remembered Perfect Gentlemen. Hmm, let’s see. My first kiss was in 4th grade. I know, awful right? But it was nice and sweet. When I think about that time in my life, the first song that comes to mind is Al B. Sure’s Nite and Day. That is the official song for my teen years. Thanks for the memories FG!

    I don’t want to even begin to think about my first kiss. TOTAL DISATER!!!! He kissed my nose FG! Such a loser. Good choice on the Miche’le. I loved her, even though I hated her squeaky ass voice!

    Damn son. You said obscure and you weren’t lying. I would have said Guy’s “Let’s Chill.” But you dug DEEP in the crates for those. I’ll be back. I need to pull out my tapes to have a proper comeback–yes, you heard right. Tapes!
