Old Songs

Got a Journey late last year and with it came a one year subscription to Sirius radio. I didn't realize how much I had been missing. Since I am one of those kids raised in the 50s the music available on Sirius is fantastic. I just tune in to the 50s or 60s channels and away I go. Back to my teen years, growing up, teen dances, ice skating at the arena, hanging out with friends, dancing at the pavilion at the beach. It all comes back. Music is the window to our past. How many times have you recalled the exact words to a song that you hadn't heard in eons? How many times has that song reminded you of what you were doing when you used to hear it regularly?
Music takes you back in time, to memories and your younger years.
When my subscription runs out, I will run out to renew it. I just hope Sirius is still in business.

  1. This is very true. There are some old songs that will come on the radio and I can picture a very specific memory. It is amazing!
