Why is it that if you were teenager in the 50’s and listened to the music of that era you can’t get it out of your blood?  It’s like as soon as you hear Doo Wop or Rock & Roll you are 16 again, in 1955 when Elvis came gyrating on the Rock & Roll scene I was 14, Rock & Roll would never be the same and neither would I, I was sure that someday I would meet him and we would live happily ever after.  Didn’t happen, but I survived like every other teenager who had the same dreams. Like everyone who was a teenager during that time when you hear almost any song from that time you can remember those special times when you knew that this guy was the love of your life and you would always be together or just as likely you knew you could not make it though one more day because your heart was broken and life would never be the same and of course if you had that special someone you had your very own song. Funny I wonder how many songs reminds you of some boy or girl whom you thought was the one, I know I have a few and when I hear them I smile and wonder how that person is and if they ever think of me and that makes me happy but when I hear Sea Of Love I am sad. Sea Of Love was my husband and my song. His birthday is coming up which is always a hard time for me. So when I hear it I feel sad and then I play some of the great songs that we had so much fun listing to. Right now I am listing to Maybellene and we are Drag Racing with some car down Woodward Ave. and I feel great! Oh about you?

Long Live Rock & Roll
