I am babysitting at my daughter's house tonight and tomorrow, so I am away from my computer. I am trying to post from my tablet, I am finding it very awkward. I don't know how some of you do all of your posting from a phone. This is a song I remember hearing a lot on the radio when my family lived in Louisiana, I was about 10 years old.
Petula Clark Downtown. 1964 snapchat : alexhashs

I do remember that song. Not one of my favorites by her but one I have heard the most.

I just remember it was on the radio a lot, so I guess it was popular

That's a retro 60s classic.

It seems like a distict era before the Beatles and the British Invasion.

I found the 45 in a collection when I was 13. A good pop for the era.

I remember Downtown with Petula Clark. I only work on my desktop, can't stand using the tablet for typing.

Me either Marlina. Stupid touch screen, and copying the link for the video was cumbersome too.

It definitely takes me back. I lived in a suburban neighborhood, with the kids getting together to play red rover, and freeze tag. Catching honey bees in jars, and getting stung walking barefoot through the clover. We only lived there for about 2 years, but this song takes me there.

What song do you know by her? This is the only one that really comes to mind for me.
