I just googled his song. Wow, Barry was certainly a doomsday charismatic singer ... ahead of his time. The lyrics are certainly describing life today vs back in 1965 ... B-) Great! Now I hear the Osmonds singing “Down By The Lazy River” in my head :wacko: Lol Just viewed the youtube “Down by the Lazy River” ... my eyes my eyes ... what a blast from the past ... no doubt about it ... the Osmond brothers were really feeling the energy to do those hilarious groovy dance moves! :mdrmdr: Well since you mentioned them, Yohanan, it’s only fair and square to mention my favorite childhood crush .... David Cassidy ... singing “Sunshine”! I hope he made heaven ... he has a nephew who claims to be saved and was at his bedside so hopefully he was able to talk to him. Well ... this thread sure went off the rails ... you started off welcoming Happy 2020 and 15 days later ... we are all reminiscing life in the 1960’s and 1970’s. B-) Geri, my girlie crush was David Cassidy, small world, I also heard he had accepted Christ, eternity will tell. yep, this sure went off rocker. :mdrmdr: Yeah, well, us guys weren't too happy with David Cassidy or Donnie Osmond. They raised the bar far to high 😉 Oh Tammie, you made my day! That would be fantastic to see David in heaven. On his website I did notice a fan was telling him about Jesus back in 2017. Wow, can you imagine if he did make it ... and he is singing Gospel songs? We are in for a treat ... I can see him fitting right in with the Gaither concerts. :whistle: They got the complete series (all 96 episodes) for only $18.00 at Walmart.com Its fun watching the old programs once more. I was so young when they first aired and don’t remember everything so its like deja vu all over again. Ok ... back to 2020 prophetic news .... 😉 LOL Yohanan you sound like my oldest brother complaining! During his pre-teen years every girlfriend (3) including the ones in the youth group at church, all had a big crush on David. My brother was given orders to grow his hair into the shag and wear the same clothes. :mdrmdr: That wasn’t enough though ... they wanted him to sing and play the guitar. He did buy a guitar but he couldn’t sing. Bwhahaha They even wished he was born on April 12th and my brother said sorry I can’t redo my birth ... but my father was born on April 12th so do I get brownie points for that? :mdrmdr: Yeah, it really was that bad. But we guys did the same with the whole Farrah Fawcett expectation on the girls, though I was much more enamored with Jaclyn Smith :heart: Well you have good taste and picked wisely because Jaclyn Smith is not only still “alive” but looks fantastic in her old age. During high school all the guys were for the blonds - Farrah and Cheryl Ladd and Cheryl Tiegs (I think she was a model?) Oh I got the Charlie’s Angels DVD’s collection too. Hey, when I get bored I will watch an episode since I cancelled regular tv service. I have Baa Baa Black Sheep (later called Black Sheep Squadron) collection that I still like to watch. I’m not much of a tv guy unless college football is on. Yes, this is all off topic but I’m the OP so it doesn’t matter. Besides, no one is saying “ happy new year” anymore so the thread would have run bare by now anyway. 😉
Yeah, Tiegs was a model. The whole blonde craze was well under way in American culture at that time. My guess is that it caught fire with Marilyn Monroe. I never cared much for her. I liked Audrey Hepburn much better.
