"This came out the year I started High School and it was
everywhere. 1993.. Cross Colours and
Girbaud were big brands. The Skating Rink became my second home and the popular
hairstyle was “the box”. This was also the first year I ever heard the term
Baby Making Music!! But.. it was also
the year of I Will Always Love You.. Whitney Houston"
