Those were some special years to have been growing up as a teenager. We witnessed the explosion of rock and heavy metal music. The 70s gave birth to so many legendary bands. I'll always remember the parties, all the concerts, great friends, and wild times. Personally I don't know how or when my days will end, but I do feel very lucky to have lived them decades and I share your sentiments 👍 August 2023.

I keep coming back to this song. I've been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and this one hit wonder hits all my thoughts on reflectng is my life. It's feels like I never left that era. I guess that's my home. It's been good, bad,and ugly. This sweet sentiment of a song gave us hope in the chaos of the late 60s. My boyfriend went to Nam in 70. The letters from him fit this song. You just want to go back home. Innocence gone when you figure out "You can't go back home". It's just a reflection. A piece of your heart.

There would be so many things I would change like talking to this girl in 8th grade named Sheri who could with just staring at me make me weak to my knees. Or try out for Baseball or kept going with my medical studies. When I hear this song it rushes old memories back in my mind. I really love this song. To all of those in junior high and high school today.

Did you live my life? I take this song theologically, because it is based on the inherent sadness since what Christians call "the fall" . When I think about it, what a great ballad for a film as Christ walks to his destiny as a man, redeeming the fallen world with stunning bravery as he is mocked. He wants to go home to his Father but the cross beckons, there is still work to do. Thank God for the few times I have had a bit of bravery in my life. Fruit just poured out afterwards. Could use some right now.

I was headed to USMC boot camp in a few months. This song has remained seared in my memory ever since. Hearing it now, it seemed to be the perfect soundtrack to my life in those uncertain days. Thankfully, I survived 3 tours, flying a Navy aircraft which makes this song even more powerful to me today. Thanks guys, you were wise beyond your years.

There was a lot of competition in 1969 for music playtime. Some of the follow up success by bands was greatly influenced by the media but some bands could never find the magic they found to follow up a monster hit. probably some great songs never surfaced with all the bands exploding on the scene.

Eternity will not be about any of us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the Lake of Fire that burns with sulphur and fire on Judgement day.
