Friends, as we wind down to cooler weather… when you think of a summer night when you were around 13-16, the air smells sweet, the sky is clear, you are happy, there is nothing to stand in your way, hopeful for anything fantastic, a smile on your face and a song in your heart… Maybe you are riding in a car with your dad watching the telephone poles fly by, or camping with your family, maybe sitting around the record player… What song is that that plays in your head?<\/p>\n

For me it is many… but first to come to mind:
\nLove is the Answer (single version) – England Dan and John Ford Coley
\nAlways and Forever – Heatwave
\n’65 Love Affair – Paul Carrack

\nSara – Fleetwood Mac
\nMagic – Olivia Newton-John<\/p>\n
