This weeks old school theme is: Songs from Movies.
I had a hard time picking between two songs so, this week (for the first time), I am putting up two songs.
Ben sung by Michael Jackson from the movie Ben. (Am I the only one who still watches this movie)?
Theme from Mahogany sung by Diana Ross

I never heard of that Ben movie...
I loved the movie BEN. It was misleading though, because when it came out the media tagged it as a "MICHAEL JACKSON" movie. So many people were going to the movie cause they though the Jackson 5 were performing.
GREAT PICKS THIS WEEK. ADD ME to your OSF LIST..

have a great mom day u great mother
I love the theme song from Mahogany! Great pick. That is classic Diana. The Ben song could have been nice if it were not about a rat. That movie used to come on TV a lot when I was younger.
Ben...wow!! You really hit it with that one!
Very original, good choice. I agree with Regina tho--it was almost a love ballad to a rat...weird.
I like the song, but the movie - no way! I am so afraid of rodents (typing the word creeps me out.)
Mahogany: Back in the day...I used to sing this so much and of course I can't sing at all! I haven't heard this song in a long time. Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by my place.
Happy OSF!
Ben is a remarkable song. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. The home where Willard (and Ben) lived was actually about three blocks from where we lived. That memory is the other reason that the movie remains one of my favorites...

Hey, Happy OSF, and please add us to your list of participants.
I remember Ben, that movie used to have all of my siblings in an emotional state when we were younger!
Good choices.
Ooh Mahogany was my movie! All the music was good. I've never seen the movie Ben, but I loved the song.
