Author's Note

"When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest." - Thoreau

Music lives from the time the first bird sang.. .. .. human beings are still trying to replicate its sound.. some tho' few have done so as brilliantly and clearly over time!!!

[Pete]

indeed. where would we be without it? "This is the only bird whose note affects me like music, affects the flow and tenor of my thought, my fancy and imagination. It lifts and exhilarates me. It is inspiring. It is a medicative draught to my soul." - thoreau on the wood thrush

[emmajoygreen]

'It is inspiring. It is a medicative draught to my soul." - thoreau on the wood thrush' Yes, yes and yes again!

I always wondered if that was an actual number. Can you imagine the numbers that were written on walls back in the day when it was cool to do so? Catchy song though. It's one of those you hum all day long after hearing it. Good to see you, Pete!

[Pete]

(smiling) i distinctly remember when that song came out - you couldn't go anywhere or turn on a radio without hearing it. everyone was dialing it but i think the phone company had to take that number out of service. catchy for sure, this is the good stuff of life that we never forget. i bet you have many fond memories of that record store you worked at. good to see you too kelly. he who has music is never lonely or poor!

[Kelly Scheppers]

Oh yes, indeed! The eighties were the best, weren't they?

[Pete]

ugh, i just turned the big 6 0 but that music never gets old!

[Sami Khalil]

Condolences on Brian Wilson; you should commemorate his fame and death.
As for this singer, not sure about him.
I love music and its universality.

[Pete]

music speaks every language fluently and needs no translator. keep listening in the breeze sir sami.

[Sami Khalil]

All true and well articulated. You are welcome sir Pete.

[Ms claws]

Oh, I love music, too. It's actually my life! All types of music, I'm not really partial. The good rock and roll of the eighties in what I like most, I guess. I do know this song. 8675309

any friend of music is a friend of mine. i too am partial to the eighties when i was learning about life and coming of age.
