Flashback Friday: Cure ‘Friday I’m In Love’ + More Love on Valentine’s Day

Happy Valentine's Day! Today is the day of love and it's the best day of the week. That combination gives us the Cure song, 'Friday I'm In Love!' The 1992 hit is this week's B101.7 Flashback Friday Spotlight.

What else did everyone 'love' in 1992? Well, there was the romantic movie, 'The Bodyguard.' The flick starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner received a mixed bag of reviews, but it packed theaters around the globe. The soundtrack became the biggest seller of all time.

Our love for reality TV began with the introduction of 'Real World' from MTV. Just like the show today, cameras follow strangers living together in a house. The original season also featured a much loved Southern girl from Birmingham, Alabama. Fans of the original season, do you remember her name? The answer: Julie. What ever happened to her? Maybe someone reading this knows. Feel free to drop a comment below.
