In February of
1977, I was home on vacation from the
6th grade when my mom returned from grocery shopping. While helping her put away the groceries, I took out a clock radio from one of the bags. "Who is this for?" I asked. "You," she responded. From that day on, turning on the radio was the first thing I did when I entered my room. If I hear a song that was once played on the radio, I still remember what was going on in my life when that particular song was popular.
This song reminds me of that day in
1977.
Right on.
The song was originally recorded by
Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes (featuring Teddy Pendergrass) in
1975. Have a listen...
