ArchivesRe: Diamond - usage ?
in reply to a message by mirfak
Diamond was a name used primarily in the African-American community.
So far the only possible event that might have inspired this I've been able to come up with is the release of Sade's first album, titled "Diamond Life", in 1985, the year before Diamond first made the top 1000 SSA list. However, since that was just the name of the album and there wasn't an individual song with that title this is still just a guess. It's often harder to figure out where the popularity of a name which is also a common word comes from.
