@Heyjojo I take one, I'll leave one. This song reminds me of my ex-fiance, we were still friends until her RIP earlier this year, friends for 20 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmmPFrkuPq0
@Mikethewander1 Well now. First… I’m so very sorry for your loss. That’s a long lasting friendship. ❤️🩹❤️🩹🙏🙏
Second- this one you chose is one of my top 5 Moody Blues tunes. I love it deeply.
Another? The Story In Your Eyes
Exquisite, don’t you think? ♥️
@Heyjojo Thanks & yes! I used be part of Twitter group that went by #musicislife I concur❤️ I was writing my memoirs and realized how much of my life is reflected in the joy of music.
I had been around the world by 19 years of age, so... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZiSuKLOKeM
@Mikethewander1 whoa… around the world by 19? That must be some memoir, you travelin man!
😃👊
@Heyjojo Not finished yet. I do need to figure out how to do it, medium and format. LOL When people ask me where I'm from, it's a loaded question.
I was born in San Francisco, lived in 7 states, 2 cities in each and 4 in Florida and 2 cities in Germany before I was the age of 17. I joined the U.S. Navy out of Germany and was in Basic Training 5 days after my 17th birthday. I went from there to Australia, the Coast of Africa, Guam, Hawaii, the Philippines and Japan. 😉 ❤️
@Heyjojo Thanks, it's been a hell of a ride and I have scars to prove it. LOL Or as one of my favourite movie hero's said "It's not the years, it's the mileage"
Well, these days it's both, I'm 59 so I better get it finished quick before my memories are gone or I kick it.
It is an odd feeling to have completed my bucket list before having one.
Yes, I speak some German, I loved the food & people of everyplace I've been but I didn't care for NY/NY too crowded.
@Mikethewander1 oh sorry to hear that about NYC. But I get it. I think it’s an acquired taste. I’m from the ‘burbs but have a deep love for NYC.I worked down on Wall Street for a bunch of years. and still frequent the place- jazz clubs, Broadway, dance. . When you’ve got your book complete, please shout it out! 🙏👊
@Heyjojo I'll have to admit that I did not get to see that side of life. My journey was a working one. I did get to meet my Great Uncle who played trumpet with Louie Armstrong. My Uncle wouldn't leave Manhattan for the most part & never South of the Mason-Dixon line for that could mean his death. He was a black man married to a white woman so you can guess why that would be a danger back then.
As for my book, I most certainly will. Thanks. ❤️ 👍
@Mikethewander1 What an experience that all must have been! Do you speak more than English? How can one embrace diversity? Travel and learn about all of the beautiful world cultures. You have been blessed, my friend! I wish you the best as you put this all down in whatever format you end up in! 🙏♥️
