Message: Break up songs ( and yes, John....I'm Not In Love is by 10CC).....You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin by the Righteous Brothers, Breaking Up Is Hard To Do ( was that Neil Sedaka-Dan Johnson....does Studebaker Hawk ring a bell....LOL!), and Leaving Me Now by Level 42. I was weird in high school ( as anyone who knew me back then, and NOW, will tell you)....I was getting back into contemporary jazz in my Junior/Senior year. My mom used to play all kinds of jazz for us as kids. My brother, Mike, got me into stuff like David Sanborn, Earl Klugh, Jean-Luc Ponty, etc. so, when I "made out" I liked instrumental "mood music" instead. Sometimes, words take away from a moment. Except for Michael Franks. He's so smooth, was then and is now. Also who I like for that stuff now is Diana Krall. Still like rock n' roll, just very picky about it, but jazz is my first love!

Message: Ha! Where are those Trojan trash talkers after last night's thrashing by the Wildcats?
Re: make-out songs - I would think the early 60's crowd would rank "Our Day Will Come" (can't remember the artist) right up there. Mid '60's people would have to include "God Only Knows" by you know who. For the '70's, how about "Love Land" by Charles Wright and the 104th St. Rhythm Band and "Color My World" by Chicago. Now how about a related subject - make-out locations? Someone already mentioned 26th street, but I bet a lot of people would rank Pershing Drive/end of the North Runway at the top.
"Our Day Will Come" was done by lots, but I think the version you're talking about was Ruby and the Romantics.

As far as break up songs, I don't remember any. However, with all this talk about Ernie lately, it reminds me of something he said to me at the end, "Sorry, Gloria. But like the song says, "I am not in love." Can't remember who that's by, but I can still hear the tune.
I think it was "10 CC"

He always had a kind word to say about people. He was so good at everything he attempted in school. I am grateful that I got to have him in my life. In so many ways he enriched the person I am today. I definitely learned alot about diversity from his presence :)
Rest in Peace, Bobby. This world will miss you!

I remember making out to "This is the End," by the Doors and thinking it was possibly the most romantic song ever written. Well...actually, I wasn't thinking that at the time, but whenever I hear it now, I'm immediately transported to the (cozy) back seat of that '66 Mustang. It's the magic of music.
Amen to that, Charlie.....

Message: I hate to break up all this talk of make out songs, ESPECIALLY with the following sad news. Received an E-mail last night from a friend informing me that a great guy from c/o 87, Bobby Kraag, passed away January 7th from a severe asthma attack. I am still in a state of shock but wanted to pass on the information to those who would have wanted to know. I knew Bobby for many years and he was always a super sweet fun guy. We ended up in drama together in high school and performed in all the plays together. I can't count how many times our rehearsals would break down because we got the giggles and couldn't continue. Bobby had the most contagious laugh. I hadn't seen or spoken with him in some time but I have often thought of him and always envisioned a large drama reunion to watch all our old tapes and laugh at ourselves. I am so sad he won't be there in person when we finally have the party but I know he will be there in spirit. I am very thankful I have so many wonderful memories of him. For those interested, there will be a memorial service for Bobby on Saturday, Feb 2nd at McCormick Mortuary at 1PM. The address is 13806 Hawthorne Blvd. (corner of Hawthorne and 138th) If you knew him and loved him like me, please try and come. If you don't even know him or can't come, please put in a special prayer for Bobby's family as they are dealing with their loss. Thanks Cougars.
Sorry for your loss, Delia. Thanks for letting his classmates know.

Re the old songs, How about, I think it was called "Needles and Pins" or maybe "Now it begins" sung by a female and a later song "Afternoon delight" by Rod Stewart. If you want to go way back, I remember dancing at the Palladium under the mirror ball to "Sentimental Journey". Now that was really romantic for a 17 year old.

Message: Ok El Rojo...In answer to you question. It depends on Which "Jay" you are Talking about. The Original was Jay Traynor whom was the lead singer until 1962. When left the band He was replaced By "David Blatt" who then assumed the Name of "Jay Black" Throughout the rest of their recording years. Both are alive and well. Jay Traynor has a web site on the internet. Jay Black, after the group broke up, went on to a Solo career and is still active in the Music Industry. By the way a couple of the members of the group started "Steely Dan". Now as far as the "oldies" Tunes Go, I dont know if you want me to get started naming those since I do have a menial collection of about 5,000 songs of which each year has some very special ones. BTW I will try to bring the collection to Cruise Night in March as I don't plan on missing this one. Ok how about a couple of 1950's "Oh What A Night" The Dells, "Why Do Fools fall In Love" Frankie Lyman & The Teenagers,"Day-O" Harry Belafonte, "For Your Precious Love" Jerry Butler, "Small World" Johnny Mathis,"Til Then" The Classics, "Earth Angel" The Mystics, "A Million To One" The Platters Also by Jimmy Charles 60's," Silhouettes On The Shade" The Rays, "Young Love" Sonny James and I could list too many from that point on. Now Doris Don't even say you don't remember the 50's ones, not after the collection I sent you.
Great Rememberences as I sit here Listening to one of my 1963 Cd's.. Be A Coug!
Walter, Some good ones there all right. I have to disagree on Day-O though.....definitely NOT a make out song. Thanks dude.....
