    It’s a Love Thing is a song by the R&B group The Whispers, released in Jan. 1981. And Where are the Whispers from?

    Actor: From Los Angeles, California. (Singing ).

    They were best known for two R&B singles that were number one. And The Beat Goes on in 1980 and Rock Steady in 1987.

    Actor: But scored hit records since the late 1960’s. (Singing Never Again).

    Hmm! I didn’t know that. The Whispers have been singing a long time. When I first heard a Whispers’ song, I didn’t know that they were the Whispers in the 70’s. I remember a hit from the group titled “ Seems Like I Got To Do Wrong” (Singing).

    I had been hearing the Whispers a good while before I really knew who they were because I was a little girl. And when they came out with the song It’s A Love Thing, I was beginning to learn who they were. And the minute I heard It’s A Love Thing, I fell in love with the song right away. …

    Today’s topic: The Dare Me Song by the Pointer Sisters

    Dare me is a 1985 song that the Pointer Sisters recorded issued by RCA Records. The lead vocal is June Pointer.

    A video was made for the song. The video was a very neat way to present the Dare Me song in my opinion. At the beginning, I love the way the Pointer Sisters walked in the gym stepping’ in their suits and hats. The group was also dressed for the boxing ring sparring with Mark Breland who is now a retired world champion boxer.

    Dare Me was the first release from the Pointer Sisters’ Contact album. It was written by Sam Lorber & Dave Innis. The song peaked at number 11 on the Hot 100 in Billboard magazine, a final Top Ten hit on the magazine’s R&B chart peaking at number 6 and also became the only Pointer Sisters’ track to reach number 1 on the Billboard’s Dance Chart. It reached the top twenty in the UK singles chart and the top ten in Australia. I could go on and on. It became a worldwide hit.

    At the end of the video for the song, you see three ladies in the ring showing off their neat dresses. Three beautiful fashion ladies. The Pointer Sisters.

  • Radio Has More Listeners 8:7:21 3.20 PM
    Radio Broadcaster: What’s up Sound Flave? You might as well come on my side because radio still has more listeners.

    Sound Flave: Greetings everyone! Sometimes I think about turning my podcast into Internet radio, but I don’t see where there is much difference between a podcast & Internet radio. They are both heard through Internet on your computer.

    I wonder how it would be if I could move my podcast towards the AM and FM direction. Radio still has more listeners. But podcasts are also making it with listeners. It seems as if a podcast could be just as much or just as big as radio. Advertising is in both, and you can make money in both. But radio still has more listeners. However, things are not always as they seem.

    I want Sound Flave to be something big and special, but I also think small. I think small as far as Sound Flave being my very own show without radio. But if the podcast was on FM or AM, it could get a whole lot more listeners. On the other hand, my podcast might make it for a while, but what if things get complicated? What if my podcast get dropped? I would be right back where I started. Podcasting. Besides, podcasting is easier to deal with than radio.

    Well, I guess I’ll sit back and have myself a soft drink, and think on things a little more.

    Radio Broadcaster: Yes, because radio still has more listeners.

    John Legend
    A legend before his time with a legendary style. He’ll never go away. He’s alive this present day. Legend sings a song titled Ordinary People.

    When I first heard him, his music was not a lot. Just a grand piano and singing voice singing what we know and can relate to.

    John’s last name is Legend. He’s a traditional story already and popular I think. Very well known. I know him by his song Ordinary People singing about you and I or two people in love. One misbehaves and one make mistakes. I love the part when he said:

    I hang up you call
    We rise and we fall
    And we feel like just walking away.
    As we love advances, we take second chances
    Though it’s not a fantasy
    I still wan you to stay ____ John Legend

    Legend makes people listen to themselves with his voice and music. Ordianry people was released on his debut album lifted in 2004 as second single and later certified gold by the RIAA.

    At the 48th Annual Grammy Awards, Ordinary People received three nomintions for Song of the Year, Best R&B Song, and Best male R&B Vocal Performance, ultimately winning the latter.

  • Pray For the Harvest and Apple Growers 6:16:2021, 2.27 PM
    Story by: Gail Nobles

    Good evening! This is Sound Flave, and I’d like to say pray for the harvest and apple growers. I read in a headline that said “Fewer Apples Are Heading To Market” We’ve got to pray for the apple grower’s struggle. Apples are medicine, and we want them to grow. Galatians 6:9 Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

    Genesis 8:22 While the earth remains the, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

    I think about Sound Flave; how I got to keep the flavor up. I can design and draw a city, but can it be built? Can I build the audience for the podcast? I don’t know where I’m going with it. For now, I’m just building episodes and hope that people will listen. You can build so much, and something could come along and try to tear it down.

    Exodus 34:21 Six days shalt thou work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest. Earing-time is an old English word for plowing.

    Yes, we do need rest. Thank God for that. And sometimes we need to slow down and look at what we’re doing, think about what we’re doing, and pray about what we’re doing. We think we do it all on our own, but we don’t.

    We must have faith in the one above that the harvest will continue. I’m Gail Nobles. Pray for the harvest and apple growers.

    Song: Young Hearts Run Free
    Song by: Candi Staton
    Song written by: David Crawford

    (Singing)

    Hello Everybody! You’re listening to Sound Flave Radiae Applis Stuudio Hall!

    Today’s Topic Candi Staton Young Hearts Run Free

    Sound Flave! The Podcast sound! Radiae Applis!

    I’ve been hearing Candi Staton’s song Young Hearts Run Free most of my life and always believed in the song. I first heard it when I was a little girl and understood the lyrics. I knew that Candi was singing her life experience. Candi was singing about the hurt and the pain. The music made me tap my feet, but the words were acted out by some people around me. That’s what made me pay attention. Candi Staton was also singing the lives of others. Men and women fighting all of the time, but staying together forever with children. Married couples cheating on one another. In those days, I didn’t know what divorce was and the woman alone and the man dropped in and out.

    That’s when I understood
    What's the sense in sharing, this one and only life
    Endin' up, just another lost and lonely wife
    You'll count up the years, and they will be filled with tears
    Love only breaks up, to start over again
    You'll get the baby, but you won't have your man
    While he is busy loving every woman that he can, uh-huh
    Say I'm gonna leave a hundred times a day
    It's easier said than done
    When you just can't break away

    In those days when I heard a song, I only heard the music. But for some reason, I could hear Candi’s words through her music.

    As I got older, I understood more.
    It's high time now just one crack at life
    Who wants to live in, in trouble and strife
    My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me

    What I learned growing up was marriage was forever. You had responsibilty. It could get in the way of you doing things in life that you always wanted to do. I would argue with my parents and tell them I was never going to be married. But that’s just the way that I felt and still feel unless my feelings change. How do you feel? To me, it’s more than a thought.

    "Young Hearts Run Free" is a disco song written by David Crawford and originally recorded by soul singer Candi Staton in 1976. The song spent a week at number one on the Hot Soul Singles chart. It also peaked at number twenty on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. Young Hearts Run Free" was one of only two songs by Staton to reach the top 10 on the UK singles chart. In 1999 Candi Staton recorded a new dance version of "Young Hearts Run Free". It peaked at #29 in the UK.

    Song: Something New
    Story by: Gail Nobles

    At some point in our lives, we’ve had to try something new and different. And because Sound Flave is not radio, I’ve had to try something new and different. There are no records to play. It’s not allowed in the podcast world. Sound Flave is Radiae. I’ve got to start from the bottom. I’ve got to start from scratch. I’ve got to make something happen. In the podcast world, it’s all about voice. I’ve got to make my own music to talk about music. So in that sense, podcasting is harder than radio.

    The podcast could be done a lot quicker, and making my own sounds can make it a lot longer. It’s like learning a new course. I won’t mention all the other things I’ve got to do. I’d like to just talk to my listeners sometimes. Talk is a big part of podcasting. I’m Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to Sound Flave Radiae

    Hello everyone. I hope you are enjoying Sound Flave. I’m your host Gail Nobles, and today I want to talk to you about Radiae Applis. It is like a podcast entertainment studio hall. It’s like a city of listeners. There’s a place for listeners. It grows from one ear to the other from place to place through wifi and online. It’s building it’s way up from Spreaker.com. It started out with one episode and now there are four. There must be more.

    Applis is a place for music. Applis is a place for the announcer. It is all about sound and flavor. Sound Flave is the main title. Radiae Applis is the subtitle and core. It is the seed. And what I’m bringing you today is that flavor of sound. The sound from the harvest.

    Let’s talk about Patrice Rushen. (Music)

    Patrice Rushen is a jazz pianist and R&B singer. She is also a composer, record producer, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and music director. Her 1982 single “Forget Me Nots’ received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

    (Voice)

    Patrice made a cool video on her 1982 single Forget Me Nots. It appears on her seventh album, Straight from the Heart. You know "Forget Me Nots" are flowers that symbolize enduring love despite absence or separation. I must say Patrice Rushen is a great song writer and great in music. I’m Gail Nobles and you’re listening to Sound Flave Radiae Applis.

    Song title: Shaft
    Song by: Isaac Hayes


    Ladies, whose the John Shaft in your life?

    Actor: Strive! Strive for something more.

    Shaft, a film in 1971 staring Richard Roundtree. He was John Shaft. A private detective.

    Ladies, is there a John Shaft around you today in your area? You’ll need him when you’re alone on the street surrounded by gangsters. You’ll need him when that thief grabs your pocketbook. That’s the time when nobody may be around. You might say, “Where the men at?”

    Some of them ought to be ashamed of themselves stealing and abusing women. That’s no man. We need men today.

    Shaft is a double album by Isaac Hayes recorded for Stax Records' enterprise label.

    If anything, John Shaft should have had an impact on guys. We need real heroes to help take a bite out of crime. It’s a man’s world. John Shaft did lead. He had spunk. He got up to move. And you’re listening to Sound Flave. A sound with flavor. I’m your host Gail Nobles.
