Several days ago, I heard a beautiful love song on the radio, sung by a fellow with the sweetest voice. I’d never heard the tune, but it stuck in my head. This afternoon I was doo-doo-doodling the melody, and The Squire asked me about it. So I told him.
“Have you ever heard that before?”, I asked.
“Do you mean you haven’t?”
“No.”
Elvis Presley. Love me Tender.
Honest to Pete, I had no idea that was who was singing. No wonder the girls were all crazy about him! See what you miss when you go to a boarding school.
You might want to break into some oldies but goodies… You never know what new treasure you might find.
Well, I do know all of the verse to “Only a Bird in a Gilded Cage”, and that’s about as old as they come.
