No posts with label I turn 50 this week. So I'm posting 5 songs from the 5 decades of my life over 5 days. Day 2 - the 80s: "The Boys of Summer" by Don Henley. This song, released in 1984, stands out from my preadolescent years when I spent a lot of time at Lake Tobesofkee where my parents sold concessions to crowds of tanning teenagers packing the beaches. The song felt nostalgic--even before I understood nostalgia. I sensed life passing by too fast. Today quickly becomes a memory we will cherish or regret. Whenever I hear "The Boys of Summer", I remember listening to the radio in Mom's car driving to the Lake in the mid-80s. Other notable songs that almost made the cut were "Africa" by Toto and "The Living Years" by Mike and the Mechanics. What were some of your favorite songs from the 80s. Show all posts
