Day 6: A song that reminds you of an old flame
I'll always remember when this song came on the radio when we were in her car and we both said at the same time, "I love this song!" And then the smile we shared...
 
Day 7 - A song you would dedicate to someone no longer with us.

Dance of the sugarplum fairy


My grandfather was a towering figure to me. A university professor and Dean for decades, artistic, confident, disciplined, worldly, intelligent. I was quite young when my grandparents took me to see the Nutcracker performed by the national ballet of Canada. I was supposed to be awed by the music and movement, touched by the precision and skill and dedication of the dancers. But I remember the way the sound seemed directed at me rather than bouncing around the room. I remember the way lights shifted and I tracked the paper snowflakes as they swirled above the dancers movements. So I dedicate this song to my grandfather, he wanted me to be part of his world and instead I learned to see my own.

For Jerry who left us too early. RIP, brother…

On another note, this song came out in 1965 and featured a 15 year old Suzi Quatro on guitar…
