Due to the nature of this blog, it may seem like my life is sunshine and roses 24-7, but like everyone else, I have down days. During a particular dark mood the other day, Hal was trying to cheer me up in the car. But nothing seemed to help... until "Vacation" came on the 60's and 70's radio station.
Something about the song just made us giggle. The cheesy nostalgic lyrics. The overly chipper vibe. Maybe it was how Connie Francis falls off the notes at the end of each phrase. I'm not sure what it is, but any song that turns a frown into side splitting laughter is a-okay!
Listening rules, when feeling blue:
- Turn the volume up;
- Pretend you're a teenager in 1962.
- Bop your head;
- Sing and spell along;
- Feel good again!
