MM-Walking in Memphis

Every Monday LadyJava does Music Mondays so here is mine for the week:

Marc Cohn~Walking in Memphis

This song will always be dear to my heart and I will tell you why. My dad went to the Gulf War after we moved to Ft. Polk, LA. I was I think about 10 years old. My mom decided that my sister, mom, and I would travel to Illinois for Christmas. It was oh-so-much fun. It was us 3 plus I think we brought my cat at the time (she died when I was 18) in our little 1989 Chevy Cavalier (Oh the memories of that old car, I miss it!). It was snowing like mad crazy when we got to Tennessee and we stayed at a Holiday Inn.

Every time I hear this song I will always remember traveling with my mom and sister during a snowstorm!

Sweet memory and sweet song. I have always loved this song too. Did you know that this singer was actually shot in the head at gun point. I think it was a car jacking. And . . . He lived! He totally lived. It happened a long time ago. Sorry if that is TMI. I am always full of celebrity information that usually no one else cares about. LOL.
