I love Dancin’ in the Moonlight. There are so many good ones, I could fill 2 pages with them. We lived in the best of times, we really did.

Cat Scratch Fever by our next Secretary of Defense, Ted Nugent

Your comment and nome de plume bring this story to mind:

My dh had a swollen lymph gland under his arm that kept getting larger & he wouldn't go to the doctor. I told him repeatedly to go b/c he had cat scratch fever. When the pain got so bad that he did go to the doc, the diagnosis....you guessed it....cat scratch fever.

It wasn't funny that he had the disease, it was what he said to me after he got the diagnosis that was so funny. "How in the h*ll did you know it was cat scratch fever? I thought you had been listening to Ted Nugent and were pulling my leg!" He didn't believe there was such a disease until he got it.

Ted Nugent as Secretary of Defense, I can go for that!

My favorite by Segar is Ship of Fools.

Yea it's my favorite Seger song too. Not many people have heard of it. It was popular when I was on the ship and got played considerably too. LOL. After I got out I learned to play the six string and Ship of Fools was among the first songs I learned. :>} For a long time I thought a sailor would have had to have written that song. It was Segers own song.

We can still listen and dance to the oldies, so these still are the best of times:)

I love these old music threads b/c I always get to listen to songs I haven't thought of in forever.

You mean,

O Lord, it's hard to be humble
When your perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
I get better looking each day
To know me is to love me
I must be a helluva man
O Lord it's hard to be hunble
But I'm doing the best that I can....

Really, we could go on for days.

What amazing music we had in our past, seems it died in the early 90's

Cue Don Mc Clean
