Why aren’t there more destiel videos set to the 1997 classic hit ‘At the Beginning’ with Donna Lewis and Richard Marx. Sometimes it’s all I think about about
💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙
For context see some of the lyrics below:
We were strangers, starting out on a journey
Never dreaming, what we'd have to go through
Now here we are, I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
No one told me, I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope, you were there to remind me
This is the start
💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙
youtube
💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙 💚 💙
It genuinely makes me unwell, help

Year-End Poll #47: 1996
Tumblr media
[Image description: a collage of photos of the 10 musicians and musical groups featured in this poll. In order from left to right, top to bottom: Los del Tio, Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men, Celine Dion, The Tony Rich Project, Mariah Carey, Tracy Chapman, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Donna Lewis, Toni Braxton, Keith Sweat. End description]
More information about this blog here
A lot of major moments to talk about this year. Like my birth. I was born out of the Macarena Summer.
In 1996, the Bayside Boys remix of Los del Rio's Macarena became a cultural phenomenon as well as an incredibly popular song (I'm clarifying it's a remix, because the non-Bayside Boys version also reached the Hot 100 at number 98). The track's record for longevity in the Hot 100 would only be broken almost two decades later by Adele.
Speaking of record-breaking songs, One Sweet Day, the duet between Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men, is a towering R&B number. At 16 weeks, the song held the record for most weeks at the number one spot until Lil Nas X came out with Old Town Road in 2019.
One Sweet Day is a song about grief, specifically the track was inspired by the ongoing AIDS epidemic. It's not the only song on this poll related to this issue. Bone Thugs-n-Harmony wrote Tha Crossroads to honor Eazy-E, one of the establishing figures behind the West Coast rap scene who passed away from AIDS-induced pneumonia in 1995 when he was just 30-years-old.
Sadly, the stretch between 1995 and 1996 would be marked by several losses among legends in rap and hip-hop. In 1996, The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur would be murdered with only a few months between their deaths. These losses will be relevant in a direct manner when we get to the next poll, but it's not an exaggeration to say that the music world was shaken by their deaths. There were those who were quick to make bad-faith arguments blaming the violent subject matter of the music itself. And while the coast-based rivalries did get extremely intense, I think this is a reductive conclusion to come to. To many, however, this moment in music history felt like a nation-wide wake up call.
As rap became more mainstream and started to absorb more of pop music influences into its sound, the genre was bound to change. We've already seen this with the increasing number of R&B fusions and rap verses on pop songs. But some mark this year as another turning point for the genre, as the gangster rap era starts to fade in the mainstream music scene. Even outside of rap, after this point pop music starts to feel a lot sunnier, for lack of a better term. Whether this is due to coping with these recent tragedies, a larger demographic of younger music listeners dictating the majority taste, people gearing up for the new millennium, the record industry reaching record numbers in profits, or genuine positivity and optimism (think that might have been still a thing lol), the times are certainly about to change.

Release: May 14, 1996
Lyrics:
Feels like I′m standing in a timeless dream
Of light mists with pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Touching, discovering you
Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me
Miles of windless summer nights (Summer nights)
Secret moments shared within the heat of the afternoon
Out of the stillness, soft spoken words
Say it, say it again
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
Say it, say it again
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
You′ve got…
The most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got…
Me almost melting away
As we lay there
Under a blue sky with pure white stars
Exotic sweetness
A magical time
Say it, say it again
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you (Say it, say it again)
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
Say you′ll love and love me forever
Never stop, never whatever
Near and far and always everywhere and everything
Say you′ll love and love me forever
Never stop, never whatever
Near and far and always everywhere and everything
Say you'll love and love me forever
Never stop, never whatever
Near and far and always everywhere and everything
Say you′ll love and love me forever
Never stop, never whatever
Near and far and always everywhere and everything
Songwriter: Donna Lewis
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
I love you always forever
