June 14, 2023 (Song #1992): T-50* brings me to 1973.  Today is a big day for me in the recognition of my own little history: we are celebrating the moment this lucky human discovered harmony.  I remember, distinctly, being in the back of a Gibb Family’s Volvo on a trip home from Aspetuck where we went apple picking.  While we were concentrating hard to shine our apples using our t-shirts (I believe we were competing to see which of us could make her apple the shiniest), I became aware that the family was singing.  The song was “Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose” and their voices were sweet and soothing. But then, the proverbial lightning struck when they started to sing the same song at different times. The sound stopped me in my apple-shining tracks and brought me into a totally new sphere.  I am now, thanks to the Gibbs, forever chasing – and stumbling upon – beautiful harmony.  I will always be grateful to have been in the way back of that Volvo; thanks for inviting me, Cyn. xoxo  LYRICS & MUSIC Happy Birthday to Marissa Zeitlan & Suzanne Urban! xoxo
