Did you listen closely to the words?????  She did!  Guess how it went over!   Another relationship up in smoke and flames.   Seems these darn "Our Songs" words are important!      

Remember back in High School when every "Steady" couple had a song?  Do you remember your song?  Do you remember who your "Steady" was???  Well, there's something special about a steady couple's "Our Song".  A couple is not Assigned a special song . . .  "they just happen!"  Some are pretty good . . . . others not so much.  Here's one that belonged to Nick and Barb (Guess who)

Another Beautiful Day!

Temps in the 90's - music in the 50's.  Nice balance if you ask me!  All tunes today are from our original Coachmen Pic's.   

 "Primrose Lane" was Jerry Wallace's biggest hit, reaching No. 8 pop and No. 12 R&B in the US, selling over one million copies and awarded a gold disc
From June 1957 through June 1958, Hollywood, Calif. based Challenge Records, founded by Gene Autry, issued three discs with songs by Wallace. Half of the songs have been evaluated as being done in a style now known as rockabilly.[

"Come Softly to Me" is a popular song written by Gretchen Christopher, Barbara Ellis and Gary Troxel that was published in 1959 and was performed by The Fleetwoods, composed of Christopher, Troxel, and Ellis. It was the first release for the new Dolphin Records label.  Released in 1959, the single reached #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in April.[1]

The last song this week was picked by Bill.  This was one of his all time favorite songs.  

Tommy Edwards (February 17, 1922 — October 22, 1969)[1] was a singer and songwriter. His biggest-selling record was with the multi-million-selling song, "It's All in the Game."  Born Thomas Edwards in Richmond, Virginia, Edwards was an R&B singer most remembered for his 1958, Billboard No. 1, "It's All in the Game." He sang his hit song on The Ed Sullivan Show, on 14 September 1958.

What a great day!  Sunshine, no clouds, light wind, low - to mid 60's highs - to upper 70's, no rain, no wind, no hail, no tornadoes, no sinkholes, no hurricanes, no bar mitzvahs (wait . . . did I say bar mitzvahs?)  Just checking to see if you are still with me!

Here's hoping everyone is safe and well.  

Until next week!
