Here's the view of the fire burning behind my house less than half a mile away in 2010.
One time a couple years ago my town almost burned down. Wildfire. It was really scary. That’s beside the point though.
Anyway…anytime I talk about wildfire, I start recalling a strange phase I pleasantly went through in college. I saw one of those TimeLife music compilation commercials. It was titled singer/song writers of the 70’s. I LOVED that CD that I bought of TV. I still listen to it occasionally.
Anyway…this song is not actually on that CD, but it was in that same era and I somehow fell in LOVE with this song, enough so that I actally bought the CD. I’ve since lost it. I lose things. So probably don’t lend me anything.
Anyway…You just HAVE to watch this video. It’s too awesome NOT to. I don’t know why I have such uncool taste in music, but I do. I really do.
Also have a good look at this guy’s hair because that is the style I am working toward everyday with the combination of my blow-dryer, round brush and straightener. He must have a stylist. Also, his mustache. That’s what I am working very hard to avoid on my upper lip. If I didn’t actively manage it, I fear i’d start to look a lot like him.
By the way…pay no attention to the floating graphic. At least we know that I am not the only person in the world who appreciates fine “Rock-n-Roll” when we see it. Me and my amigo Julio Moran!
Kristin, you ARE so funny! Believe it or not, this was one of my favorite songs of the era, but I was like five years old (maybe a little younger). He he he! I would always tell my mom or dad to turn it up whenever this song came on. I was in love with horses at the time, and couldn’t help just loving this song!
I’m so glad me and Julio aren’t the only ones who know what makes a great song!
Yes, yes you do have VERY BAD taste in music! lol. But I love you anyway! 😀
I was thinking you might call me out on this. Hopefully you’re laughing with me.
In my defense…People between the ages of 50 and 65 think my musical prowess is spot on. Just saying.
My Dad had this tape. We went on so few family vacations I can count them on one hand. . .anyway, we listened to this tape start to finish the entire way to and from Yellowstone. I can’t tell you the emotion I felt right when the song started — good memories! I love that song too!
