But when it did, I listened to “One In a Million,” “Ask Anybody,” and “Smile I Live For” in heavy rotation. I still do.

I got mocked quite a bit for owning and listening to this album. My classmates and friends looked at me like I was some bird with uneven wings. It wasn’t on trend. I didn’t care.

Gold Circle!! I bought a few albums from there!!
