LOL, sorry, I couldn't resist...but I REALLY do love the song! :lol:

John, my list could be SO long, Peter would have to get more storage space for the forum! :lol: But, for the sake of all viewers, I'm feelin a bit melancholy, so my list reflects it.

The first one you've mentioned, John. It came into my head right after i've read the subject line. Funny, eh?
Then - this one.

Then there's lots of songs in Russian i'm very happy about. But that's another story. :wink:

I'll always have a special place in my heart for this song. When I hear it I feel like summer of 1968.

Man, I almost forgot about Donovan Kira,

I was about 7 when that one came out. I might still have the 45 RPM! I have each and every 45 I've ever owned from when I was a kid....time to dig through them again!

Great thread John!



Hmmm, did they have WIRELESS back in the 60's? :lol:

Yup. And the rest of us will be humming/whistling it for the rest of the day now.

Curses!

Sheena, also interesting is your choice of the Dire Straits song - I listened to that one innumerable times when modifying CD players for my articles, and never tired of that song. Great choice.

Tony, as for IASWA, you are a dog! :lol:

Ah John,

I could list song after song on the Moody Blues.

I haven't heard that one in a long time.

Great thread John, just goes to show that there are still lots of topics we can still discuss. It's amazing how just hearing a song can transport you back in time.
