I Was Just Transported...

[Misty_Morning]

to another place and time....

I went to a local store and on my way out I heard an old Duran Duran song playing on the radio....

as I accelerated onto the highway, all of a sudden I was in the Mississippi Delta in the early mid eighties....

but most importantly...I was with a very dear friend of mine...his name was Robert...

The air was heavy with mist and warm....and we were laughing...we were young....


Robert isn't here any more, but for just a few seconds he was with me tonight...

EVERYTHING was right....the night, the temperature, the humidity, the tunes...


I WAS THERE!!!

Has this ever happened to you?


p.s. Robert, babe, I miss you....

Many, many times. There are certian songs that will always bring up certain associations for me. It can be very powerful when it happens unexpectedly.

BTW, you're telling your age, dear. I loved Duran Duran back when they were that fresh, new sound on the air waves.

...and whose showing their age?

I remember a friend telling me that Adam and the Ants were sell outs and I should listen to someone more true to their own sound like Duran Duran... I told him he was full of it, of course. Hey, I like D.D. fine...but c'mon. This was pre-Rio of course....

Would've had to have been pre-Rio - no one could've made that claim with a straight face after.

In answer to the first post - Oh yeah, that's happened to me. Can be awfully bittersweet.

before that and after.....

what's good is good.........
