Breath of Fresh Air

Remember this movie from the 90's? First Wives Club! I saw it years ago, but I got an instinctual smile while watching it again on TV just now. This song used to liberate me from all darkness in my life. And for no particular reason at all, it got me all high and mighty again tonight.

So I HAD to share it with y'all... Enjoy the end to the film and sing along. It works! :-)
