OH MAN!

OHH MAN!! Barbara Lewis's "Hello Stranger" just came on randomly while I was playing a period mix I just downloaded and making okonomiyaki. I KNEW that "shoo bop shoo bop, my baby" and ran over and YES!, it was Ooo "Seems Like a Mighty Long Time" (as I've always known the song, hah). But I hadn't even thought of that song in so long! That's what I love about going on this massive oldies exploration - there are so many songs whose melodies and small little repeating parts I remember and have stored somewhere in my mind and in my heart, and even if I can't search them out or remember them, I know when they come. And when they hit me, it's magical. It's childhood. And it's now.
