Okay, because everyone is having so much fun with this nostalgia, I've decided to give you all a present. I don't know how many of you listen to country music, but there's a terrific song out right now that's all about 70s and 80s nostalgia. It's sung by Mark Wills and I absolutely adore it.

There are two choruses. The first is:

It was nineteen seventy somethin'
And the world that I grew up in
Farrah Fawcett hairdo days
Bell bottoms and eight track tapes
Lookin' back now I can see me
Oh man, did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh it was nineteen seventy-somethin'

And the second is:

It was nineteen eighty-somethin'
And the world that I grew up in
Skatin' rinks and black Trans-Ams
Big hair and parachute pants
And lookin' back now I can see me
Oh man, did I look cheesy
I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh it was nineteen eighty-somethin'.

Each verse is just more and more nostalgia. And seeing how we're obviously reveling in that right now, I thought I'd put the mp3 up on my web site for anyone who wants to check out the song. You can download it here: 19 Something

Let me know what you think. smile
