LOL! My mother loved that song. She and my father took a trip to Miami for their first anniversary. She said they walked on the beach, there was a full moon, a hotel that had a little bar downstairs and inside they were playing that song on the piano. She and Dad danced to it on the beach. She said it was probably the most romantic night of her life. I often wondered if I was conceived that night because about 9 months after that I was born. I miss them both. We lost Dad 4 years ago and Mom passed away recently. I have memories to comfort me, and all of them are good.

I don't really care much for concerts b/c I don't like a bunch of people around me, but that is one I would have gone to see!

I’m on dial up. Nobody wants to bring high speed to my area. Video’s take over an hour to load.

Glad to hear you have wonderful memories of your parents. We lost my dad last year, but the memories are good. He used to sing this Don William’s song to my mom all the time:
