I really like that Frankenstein piece. Was it his brother, Edgar, who did this one?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIHeLafUPas

It was my first teenage breakup song, though I think the piece had been around a few years before our gang discovered it. I remember playing it over and over again and weeping like only a young girl can and contemplating running away to New England, though at the time I didn’t know where that was, but it was in the song, so I was going there to live a life of sadness, solitude and spinsterhood.

My father finally told me it wasn’t like the boy was going to be my husband and there would be other boys before I met the right man. That hadn’t occurred to my fatalistic 14-15 year-old self and it perked me up immediately. I didn’t listen to the song again and didn’t find out where New England was until Geography class two years later. Your link made me think of the other albino Winter.

Things were so simple back then or seemed so. Thanks for the look back, meyer.

Mistake - Edgar did both songs. I was thinking of his brother Johnny, though I can’t think of what he sang. Maybe he was just a guitar player extraordinaire.

Lake George, friend lived there.
I forgot this song.

I knew right away what it was, though.
Before I saw the title.

Thank you.

I don’t think I have ever heard of them before. I think I would remember. Now I’ll look them up. That’s funny about New England. Our brains are so weird at that age.

Sorry about your broken heart. When Step Mummy dearest died, 2012? Some guy came up to me, at the funeral in front of his wife and said I broke his heart. I said sorry. But it was more like “sorry??” I went on one date with him and he we hung out with his friends. ??

I always could sense the guys that couldn’t handle a red headed temper and a few f bombs.
