That photo of shirley at .22, she was very beautiful woman. She still is but her younger pictures was gorgeous. She could have been a model. I love shirley and her beautiful voice.

Idk why how and why R&B became less popular than Rap & Pop music but it needs to shift back ASAP

Cool story about sister shirley. Me her and my wife used to go to church together. We didn't have much but that didn't matter to her. She actually blessed my wife with a couple of outfits from her own closet but besides that God used her to speak into my life in ways unimaginable, I was set free from a lot of things under her singing, God bless sister shirley.

As we lay definitely said a lot. As we lay, I should’ve counted up the cost. But instead we got lost, as we lay😫😫😫🤭

I can imagine that as We lay was a tough one to follow up 🤷🏾‍♀️ but that's the record industry... They use you up until they can't use you anymore.

The commentator makes it sound like a murder mystery 😂😂😂

"We forgot about tomorrow, as we lay... Its Morning "

Hip hop noise destroyed some great R&B music and now listen to this crap out today!

Truth or dare always comes up on my phone. That song is my shit.

They played Go On Without you at my brothers funeral. That song has stayed with me 33 years later.

She was a beautiful woman in her younger days (no shade)!

[jondishmonmusicandstuff]

The music bizz is sooo fickle. Either you are making hits or you are not. It's like being on a very fast treadmill. It's a brutal lifestyle and only a selected few can play the game and last for years. Only a selected few.

[KISHEEME]

As we lay. Then praise the Lord at the end. Ok Shirley

[LandoHendrix]

She had a voice just as good as the greatest singers ever.
