It was our song When it came on we sang along in days bygone Hearing it now I don't think Wow! I’m sad it’s bad (C) Stephen W. Buchanan 2020

The ending made me laugh – reminding me of terrible late 80s songs from when I was a happily naïve teenager. I still enjoy hearing them on local radio-for-the-middle-aged and singing along loudly over the complaints of the kids.

Ah, there were some bad ones back then. I hear some of them now and wonder why I liked them then. I’m sure your children will remember those times as good memories. Thanks!

Invokes emotion, good or bad each is individual to the person listening. Enjoyed this.

Can you tell us the song?

Sure. It’s “The Itsy Bitsy Spider.” 🙂 There is no song as this was completely made up. Thanks.

Creative 👍
I have a sentimental attachment to that song. My first girlfriend ever.
I was about 25 and that spider drove me up the spout again and again.

And if you were still down under the Spider must have been terrifying as well. 🕷

Sadly, relationships don’t always work out. A song can bring on memories that make us sad or make us happy. Thank you so much for joining in.

Sadly they don’t, and once things that evoked good memories evoke nothing. Thanks. I thought this would be a good fit for the prompt.

Hey Navin! I hope you are getting better with yourself. I went to your new site – which looks great – and the only place I could find to follow your site said that I am. I do get emails from your site, but you don’t seem to be in my WP reader feed, so I will have to sort that out. Stay safe!
