Seasons Change

Because I didn't listen to a lot of girl bands in my day I had to Google 80's Girl Bands this morning and as soon as Expose popped up, with this song, I couldn't believe that I had ever forgotten this song!  This song was a huge hit for this girl band.  And watching the video this morning made me feel old.  :)  Does anyone else find it strange that you haven't heard a song, or even thought about it, in years and yet when you hear it again you still know all the words?!? We have such strange memories. 
So is Expose still together?  Still touring?  Why, yes! Yes they are. Just like the other bands featured this week they are still hitting the stage and entertaining audiences. 
Today's song was popular in my middle school/high school teen "love" days.  I remember listening to this song and connecting with it in regards to whichever boyfriend had just broke my heart.  Oh I'm so ashamed...but apparently not ashamed enough to keep that bit 'o news to myself! Ha! 
Happy Friday!

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment. 

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment. 

More bang for your buck

This phrase was used a lot in 1953 but an earlier citation puts it at 1940 in a Metals and Plastics Publications advertisement. Read about it here . The phrase means you get more for your money.
