A New Direction Perhaps?
Wow! A rare moment has happened! You played a song that I knew but Brad didn’t! He just listened to it and said he didn’t remember it. I was like “you gotta be kidding!” and than I felt proud. LOL!

I don’t remember this, but it is a foot tapper from over 30 years ago. Yikes.

Oh yes there are so many gems from the 80’s for sure! I didn’t recognize the title at first but as soon as I heard the beginning of the song it all came back to me, as I tapped my foot. Just what I needed to help get me going and it put a smile on my face. Thank you! 🙂

Speaking of music, I just saw a headline about it being 44 years since the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Made me think of the song you shared a few years ago.about a ship
I will probably get the name wrong, but I think it was “The Mary Alice Carpenter” ?
Just wondered if there was a song about the Edmund Fitzgerald. I figured you would know. 🙂

Thanks! I still like the ” Mary Alice Carpenter”( was that actually the correct name?) song better but it was good to hear this one. It was a really sad tragedy!

You are thinking of “The Mary Ellen Carter” sung by Stan Rogers.

I thought something didn’t sound quite right but was hoping I was wrong.
Well at least I got the “Mary” right and Carter and Carpenter does sound pretty similar. LOL!

Totally! I remember, maaaaaany years back when I was still in my education (I think I was 17 or 18), I was not very amused to go to work in the morning. Then I was sitting in that bus and the bus driver had the radio turned on. This song was played and yes, it did lift my mood!
