A day doesn’t go by that we don’t hear a tune and say “remember that song?” The songs of the 50s, 60s and 70s create a slew of memories each time we hear one on the radio or on a TV commercial.

Our first kiss?  “The Shoop Shoop” Song in my girlfriend’s driveway, was playing on the car radio in his dad’s car.

His prom-“A White Sports Coat”-  he came to my house all dressed and brought me a stuffed animal.  I was younger in school and the school didn’t permit sophomores to attend.  Plus I was really sick.  MONO. Felt sorry for his date as he talked to me on the pay phone outside the gym most of the night.

The Beetles. –  Got out of study club early and walked together to a friend’s house to see them on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Lightning striking again-   Wait?  Really

“Suspicion”- were we ready to be tied down just one boy/girl?

STOP in the name of love!- We decided.  You and me and nobody else.

You’re like a bouncing ball. You come bouncing back to me-  break up, make-up.

JANE- by Jefferson Air Supply.

Funny Kind of Fellow –  Got my mind made up about you.

“What time is it?”- Anticipation of our dates.

“Too Young to go steady?”  -wrapped his class ring on pink angora.

My Old Kentucky Home…  no bet made this weekend.  Dancers Image won and then disqualified.

“Take me out to the BallGame”..  we outlasted a few stadiums.

“Try a little tenderness”-  Remembering you singing your version of Otis to me.

Will add to this list as I hear the songs that stir the memories.
