#Weekend Music Share-When In Rome – The Promise (Official Music Video)

I was tagged on Melindas blog for Weekend Music Share, and my choice was “Promise” by When In Rome.

The Promise

This song has been one of my all-time favorites and it never grows old.


Although this post isn’t related to religion, its timeless message and emotional depth still strike a chord with me.


“Promise” by When In Rome is a captivating song from the late 80s, characterized by its catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics.


The song addresses themes of loyalty, trust, and enduring commitment.


Every time I listen to it, I am reminded of the promises I’ve made to myself and others, and the importance of keeping those promises.


Its enduring charm lies in its power to evoke emotions and memories, ensuring it feels constantly relevant, no matter how much time goes by.


This request came from Willie Torres Jr. from the blog Being Crazy For Christ. It’s the weekend!!!!!! I’m glad you joined me this week for another …

Thank You Melinda for tagging me.

      Yeah, it really was! It was a different era altogether, and the music seemed to resonate more.

      Life was simpler, and people appeared happier.

    Haha! I was born in 1988, so there’s a good reason for it to be a favorite year of mine. 😆 but yes, there’s quite a few “top” songs from that year that I love, and either have been played for me by others or remind me of myself in strange ways, “She’s Like the Wind” being one of them, “Wild, Wild West,” “Shattered Dreams,” “Kokomo,” and a few others I’m probably forgetting. Thanks for the trip down memory lane! 😊

      Absolutely! The 80s really showcased a remarkable range of music styles and genres. From rock and punk to new wave, disco, early rap, and R&B, it was a decade filled with diverse musical expressions. And if you’re into country music like I am, the 80s country scene was definitely something special. It was an amazing era to be born into and a fantastic time to experience life.

      Thank you again for Commenting and for adding some of your favorite songs of a Great Year and Decade.

      You’re welcome. I realize it’s not a Christian song and unrelated to my previous post, but I got tagged on Melinda’s post after commenting on her page. It brought back memories of this song, which has always been one of my favorites. Even over 30 years later, I still crank up the volume when it plays.

      I hope you enjoyed it, even though I know this style of music isn’t for everyone. Wishing you a blessed day, and thank you for visiting and leaving your comment.

I’m Willie

Hello and Welcome to my Website.
My name is William Torres, but my family and friends call me Willie. It is a pleasure to be here with you today, and I am excited to share my faith journey with you.

My journey has been amazing and fulfilling as a new Christian. I have seen God work in my life in ways I never could have imagined. I have grown closer to my faith and have seen Him work in my life and the lives of those around me. I am truly blessed to call myself a Christian, and I am excited to continue to grow in my faith.

I believe that I have come a long way in life. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a better man, husband to Frances Torres, and father to our children. I have strived to be a good friend and companion to those I have been fortunate to build relationships with. I have learned to appreciate the small moments of joy and fulfillment that come with every human connection.

I began writing stories that I believe were inspired by the Holy Spirit. These stories are my testimonies about the different trials I have gone through, and how the Lord has helped me to overcome them. Through this process, I’ve discovered that I can forgive those I once vowed to never forgive, and in turn, my relationships with them have been restored. They are now a huge blessing and a special part of my life.

I hope that through my writing I can be a source of encouragement to other people in their faith and relationship with the Lord. I pray that those who read my words will be blessed by the Lord and find strength and comfort in His Word.

To be honest, I have had to come to terms with the fact that I am not perfect, but it is in this place of acceptance that I am able to truly worship a God who is. His infinite love brings me joy, strength, and peace, and I am thankful for the privilege of being able to serve Him.

I have also started a Social Media Ministry on Facebook, which I invite you to visit here. Being Crazy For Christ is a platform where I share my journey of faith, and I am also on YouTube – Willie Torres Jr. and I am excited to see all that God will do through it.

This is my hope, and I’m so thankful for it. I’m thankful for the love of Jesus, and I’m thankful for the chance to grow in Him together with you.

You Are Loved

Willie Torres Jr.
