Friday Music Blog

Welcome to Friday and the Friday Music Blog! We are now in March and that means spring is on its way! I found this week to be most enlightening, enjoyable, and trying. Yes, I still run into my frustrations, annoyances, and pity-parties, too. Fortunately this outlet and spending a post-dinner conversation with my husband unhampered by children (they were all playing elsewhere) last night allowed me to get back on track and I'm feeling great as we springboard into the weekend.

Today's topic asks you to think back to your youth. The focus is songs that were popular the year you got your driver's license. This does not completely indicate your age as many states vary the legal age to drive and some may not have gone for their license at that specific age. This isn't about outing your age, but rather what songs were popular when you got your first taste of real freedom. When the open road beckoned and adventure lay ahead. Whether you drove to and from school, to a job, or to the movies, what songs were the soundtrack of that time?

Please include the song name and the artist. These topics are meant to be fun and a great collection of music that showcase, in a small way, who we are. It is my profound pleasure to read your responses and am always delighted by all who take the time to write. The songs are only part of the blog. If you'd care to write about the car you drove (your own, a parent's), any anecdotes from your first year as a driver, or what songs played on your first driving dates, then please, type away (you, too, Dad!).

Many thanks to you all who continue to stay with me, read the blogs, leave your comments, and encourage me. From Simple Joys to The Secret of Life and from Monday Movie Blog to Friday Movie Blog and a little Tantalizing Thursday thrown into the mix, this has been a full week and I'm so glad to have you here to share it.

I look forward to reading your responses to today's topic and hope you will check in over the weekend. Then, join me on Monday as we start another new week of topics together. Enjoy!
