"Ra Ra Rasputin, Russia's greatest love machine! It was a shame how he carried on..." Boney M. [1978 Disco Hit]

Today's title is in honor of our LA road trip mix.

I'm really exhausted so the entry will be short. Today's song is from a long-time favorite film of mine - That Thing You Do! And it's just a sweet song about how sometimes, there are certain people in our lives that we are drawn to. We can't help it! There's just something about them that's so irresistable that makes them special to us. Today, I challenge you to think about what makes someone you love so special to you. What's the thing THEY do? It's corny, I know. But just try it :)

#12 That Thing You Do!
The Wonders


You,
Doin' that thing you do,
Breaking my heart into a million pieces,
Like you always do
And you,
Don't mean to be cruel,
You never even knew about the heartache,
I've been going through
Well I try and try to forget you girl,
But it's just so hard to do,
Every time you do that thing you do

I,
Know all the games you play,
And I'm gonna find a way to let you know that,
You'll be mine someday
'Cause we,
Could be happy can't you see,
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you,
And keep you here with me
'Cause I try and try to forget you girl,
But it's just so hard to do,
Every time you do that thing you do

I don't ask a lot girl,
But I know one thing's for sure,
It's the love I haven't got girl,
And I just can't take it anymore

'Cause we,
Could be happy can't you see,
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you,
And keep you here with me
Cause it hurts me so just to see you go,
Around with someone new,
And if I know you you're doin' that thing,
Every day just doin' that thing,
I can't take you doing that thing you do
