As it turned out she had a fantastic time and helped me immensely however as we were driving to the wedding venue Amanda
The song I've Done Everything For You (words and music by Sammy Hagar) became a hit for Rick Springfield, aka Doctor Noah Drake on the soap opera General Hospital, off of his 1981 album Working Class Dog. The song eventually hit #8 on the Billboard Charts and obviously stuck in my head for many, many years!
With that in mind, I decided to take five of Rick Springfield's songs and create this week's set list for Travis' Five on Friday. I have to tell you, listening to anything from the early 1980's takes me right back to what now seems like another lifetime ago and certainly opens up a floodgate of memories but that's okay, even though the early 80's were kind of a turbulent part of my life there are more good memories there than bad so I don't mind going back down that portion of Memory Lane at all! Perhaps some of these songs will do the same for you.
Don't forget to visit over at Trav's Thoughts and maybe even join in on Five on Friday if you feel so inclined; it's a great meme and you can hear some great music!
sigh, one of these days you're going to pick songs I actually know.....
ReplyDeleteand I LIKED the 80s music!
Oh, be still my heart! I use to have such a crush on Rick Springfield! Did I say use to?
ReplyDeleteYou did right putting Amanda straight on the whole favours scenario. I trust she didn't argue? ;)
ReplyDeleteI like it. Very much.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day and weekend Linda. Big hug. :)
I love it when song lyrics rise from the mists and say something perfectly, just when you need them to.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the trip down memory lane! That was my high school era. I've Done Everything For You and Jesse's Girl are my favorites from your set today.
Having a soundtrack in my brain most of the time, I can relate to your coming up with a lyric from a conversation.
ReplyDeletenever been a huge fan of Mr. Springfield...but know so many people who are...
I know these from my little Sis. She and my mom were huge fans of General Hospital, and Dr Noah was one of Sis' favorites.
ReplyDeleteThis was a little before she got her own stereo. When she finally did get that stereo, this was one of the first albums she got.
