    Let me tell you about a sensational groove that brings a little sunshine into our lives. The magnificent, William Bell and his soulful classic Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday.What a masterful tune he shared with us.

    Let’s dive into the lyrics because they tell story that connects with the heart. When he sings “Every Day Will Be Like A Holliday”, William isn’t just talking about a day off work or some ribbon tied package. No, no! He’s painting a vivid picture of blissful companionship. Imagine the joy, the freedom, and that feeling you get when your loved one scrolls back into your life. It’s like every day turns into a celebration, a festive occasion filled with joy and love.

    Now he continues to sing and his words were: "When my baby, when my baby comes home.”
    A powerful declaration, isn’t it? There’s an unstable logging here a sense of hope that just makes you feel all warm inside. This anticipation, the idea that something beautiful is on the horizon, is what keeps the soul alive.

    “I’ll never have to worry about sitting by the phone,” he said in his singing. Oh, the way he captured that anxious waiting. How many of us have felt? The dread of waiting for someone to call, to check in, to say, “Hey I’m thinking about you.” But in Bells’ world, all those words vanish when love arrives. There is an undeniable comfort in knowing you’re no longer alone and that’s what makes every moment a holiday.

    “And when she gets here, I’ll never be alone.” Isn’t that the truth, the profound joy found and companionship in knowing you have someone who shares in your life, It’s like a warm hug on a cold day. A reminder that love is the ultimate gift, turning the ordinary into something miraculous.

    Each day can be a celebration if we carry that love in our hearts- an every day holiday that makes life all the more vibrant and cherished.

    Thank you for listening to Actors Stories and Film. I’m Gail Nobles. Have a Merry Christmas, and don’t forget to check out William Bells’ Every Day Will Be Like a Holliday.

    Hello song listeners! It's your girl Gail Nobles, and I'm about to spin you a tale that will tickle your toes and twist your mind.

    Once upon a time in the 1970s in a little town where the streets whispered secrets and the night aired with excitement ,there was a traveling carnival that rolled in one fateful evening. The neon lights flickered like fireflies, and the sounds of laughter mixed with the enticing aroma of caramel corn. But this wasn't just any carnival. This was the famous sideshow spectacular.

    Now at the heart of this carnival was a charming young couple. Christopher and his girl Lily. Christopher was a dreamer, and Lily had a smile that could light up the dark.

    One magical evening with the moon shining bright, the carnival drew in a thong of thrill-seekers. The side show was electric, and Christopher thought he was losing Lily to another man's charm. He stood off to the sidelines with his heart aching, but Lily looked into Christopher's eyes as the other man was trying to steal Lily away. She was caught up into the carnival and all the magic, but Christopher sad eyes brought her back down, and in that moment everything changed. The realization dawned: her heart belong to him. Not the spotlight or the charm of another man.

    Lily turned away and ran into the arms of Christopher and said, “I'd rather choose love, and I'd rather have you.” The audience erupted into applause but what matter most was the connection between Christopher and Lily. They embraced under the carnival lights, a spot igniting a beautiful promise.

    And just like that, the carnival continue to spend a vibrant world of color and sound. Christopher and Lily forged a path of love side-by-side leaving behind what could have been a lost love and heartbreak of the side show.

    When I think about that, I think of the song Sideshow by Blue Magic released in 1974. It was first released on the album Blue Magic. And when issued as a single, it's sold over 1 million copies going to number 1 R&B in April 1974 and number 8 pop in the United States in the summer billboard ranked it as the number 19 song for 1974.

    Today's topic Let's Do It Again by the Staple Singers written by Curtis Mayfield Let's Do It Again was a soul R&B smash. It was part of the soundtrack for the Bill Cosby/Sidney Poitier film Let's Do It Again. The single reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart on December 27, 1975. It spent two non-consecutive weeks at the top of the Hot Soul Singles chart. It was the last major hit by the group.

    The 1975 “Let’s Do It Again” starring Sidney Poitier and co-starring Bill Cosby and Jimmie Walker among an all-star black cast. The film, directed by Poitier, is about blue-collar workers who decide to rig a boxing match to raise money for their fraternal lodge. The song of the same name by The Staple Singers was featured as the opening and ending theme of the film, and as a result, the two have become commonly associated with each other.

    Hello! I'm Gail Nobles and I want to talk to you again about Taraji P Henson. Taraji P Henson has played in The Color Purple of 2023 according to the Director Blitz Bazawule. She's actually singing in the movie, and she took some vocal lessons. Taraji has done an outstanding job.

    I could always see Taraji playing the life story of Tammi Terrell not knowing that she could sing.

    In case you didn't know Tammi Terrell was a singer songwriter widely known as a star singer for Motown records during the 1960s notably for a series of duets with singer Marvin Gaye.
    Though Taraji has talent in acting and singing, she might not want to play as Tammy Terrell, but she sure would be perfect for the role. If anyone approaches her with a pleasing offer, that would be awesome.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to Actors Stories and Film.

    Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to another episode of Actors, Stories, and Film. Today I'm thinking about the time when I was a little girl watching little Janet Jackson as May West. I didn't know who May West was until I had learned who Janet was imitating. May West was before my time. Janet Jackson was amazing acting as May West when she was a little girl.
    I remember on the TV comedy Good Times when she imitated May West while talking on a CB.

    “Well, I'm very mature for my age.”

    She would put her hands on her hip. Janet Jackson was an awesome May West. I think Janet would say her own lines imitating Mae West, but I remember Janet saying a famous line by May West.

    "Why don't you come up and see me sometime.” Janet would pat her hair near the back of her neck just like May West.

    I haven't seen Janet Jackson act like May West in decades. Now that she's a grown woman, she probably could act out May West better than she did before. Janet could make a small black and white mini movie and bring it in color acting as Mae West with song and dance. She could show off May West’s style and fashion and add her own.

    In case you're wondering, May West was an American actress singer, comedian, screenwriter, and playwright whose career Spand over seven decades. She was considered a sex symbol, and that's who Janet Jackson is. People consider her also as a sex symbol.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Today's episode: Janet Jackson as May West.

    Taraji P Hanson is an outstanding actress. We all know that movies are just movies, but Hendon can make them seem real as an actress.

    I'm thinking about several movies she played in like the movie Hidden Figures. The scene where she has an argument with actor Kevin Costner about the bathroom.

    “There is no bathroom, .. and I work like a dog!”

    Thouh Henson is just acting, it doesn't look and sound like it, and that's what we want in acting. She played as Katherine Johnson, a brilliant mathematician.

    I'm thinking about the movie The Best Of Enemies. She always carried a tough look on her face in that movie.

    "We gonna beat school segregation once and for all!"

    Henson played as Ann Atwater, a community organizer in Durham, North Carolina. The movie was based on a true story.

    Then there's another film starring Taraji P Henson. It’s an action film. She plays as Mary Goodwin. She kills her target Marcus Miller in his apartment and she took care of his son Danny.

    “Hey! your mouth. I told you I wasn't gonna let anybody touch you and I meant it.”

    The name of that movie is Proud Mary.

    Taraji P Henson is a strong actress. She has played plenty of great rolls in movies in her Hollywood career.

    Think is a song written by Aretha Franklin and her then husband Ted White and first recorded by Franklin. It was released as a single in 1968 from her Aretha Now album. The song reached No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Franklin's seventh top 10 hit in the United States. The song also reached number 1 on the magazine's Hot Rhythm & Blues Singles, becoming her sixth single to top the chart.


    Aretha Franklin did not only sing her song, but she was an actress while singing it. You can tell when you hear the song that she might have lived it somehow. You can hear it in her voice on the record. Aretha was singing with emotion and feeling she could switch her voice for an example: What ya trying to do to me? What ya trying to do to me?

    Yeah, Miss Aretha Franklin was something else. She was an actress in her singing. She had the expressions in her face as well as in her voice. She played as Mrs. Murphy in the Blues Brothers singing her song, Think. She was a terrific actress both in singing and for film.

    Aretha made a remake of Think in 1989 about drinking and driving, telling the people to: think about it before you turn the key. Before you sit in the driver’s seat. A music video was made for the remake.

    I'm Gail nobles, and you’re listening to a podcast about actors, stories, and film. Today’s topic Aretha Franklin, Think.
