"Brandy," "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," "Dust in the Wind," "Hotel California," Jackson 5 on the beloved ball radio. <br /><br />First album I bought was Joan Jett, soon followed by the Police. And yes, I know ALL the words to all those songs...I joke that that's the reason I can't do math--too many song lyrics (including theme songs to "Brady Bunch," "Gilligan's Island," and "Three's Company") taking up room inside my brain.sherri s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15270832904648602074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1138297462120947402.post-14366064617700385782012-05-01T18:04:46.505-04:002012-05-01T18:04:46.505-04:00Hello Shawn Cassidy....

I grew up to the Clancy brothers and can still sing most songs.<br /><br />But then, woo hoo, along came the Beach Boys - well, East Coast girls are hip....I just KNEW they were talking about me.<br /><br />And then the Beatles of course....<br /><br />And then what I think of as 'summer in a hot city' music - Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, going to work in the summer, driving my parents car in the city, hot and young,with the windows down.<br /><br />College - Bruuuuce!<br /><br />Grad School - Waoooo, werewolves of London, my man Warren Zevon, for parties, along with the Stones. Van Morrison for romantic moon-dancing nights....and still Bruuuuccee for energy and adrenaline.<br /><br />What a memory lane.
