Day 20: "Where Do I Begin"

In memory of author Erich Segal, just had to choose the theme from "Love Story".  A classic book, movie and song all in one...

I actually don't think I've ever heard the lyrics or realized it was sung by Andy Williams. The song peaked at #9 on the charts in 1971...a great year for music in my opinion....Here's a partial list of the Top 100 for the year...great stuff! I actually think it was the year I officially "fell in love" with music as I was given my first album ...none other than that classic "The Partridge Family" (and yes, I loved Donny Osmond too...and not ashamed to say I STILL DO! LOL!)

That's my era, and I love every song there except for Indian Reservation. It had us going nuts back then cause they played it and played it till your ears exploded
