It's a tradition........

some sort of thread about this for a few years now...............


A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, theyd be happy for a while.

But february made me shiver
With every paper Id deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldnt take one more step.

I cant remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.

Rest in peace, gentlemen...
Thanks for the music...

Loved their music...dislike this song. Not sure why, it's like fingernails down a chalkboard bad to my ears.

Oh dear. Love this song. Still love you.

Hated it when it was popular and I was young.

Now, several generations later, absolutely adore it.

Now THAT song does the chalk-on-blackboard thing to me.

If a song is going to be 10 minutes long, it needs to be American Pie. (Or possibly Elton John's Funeral For A Friend / Love Lies Bleeding. But that's another topic.)
