would like to
say he said it's it has to do with uh current events and he says i think it'll
be appropriate

dark time for me my wife betty had just left me and i uh i developed a pretty
powerful crush in the old

music that sweet
delicious music got me through that revered fevered summer the bay city rollers
saved my life
