    1. Too much stardom defeating the genuine person is a very typical happening to child or adolescent stars.

  2. Of all the tunes of my youth, this one and Helen Reddy’s “I am Woman”, meant so much…thank you!

    1. Thank you Carol for expressing your appreciation of this shared song. The journey down memory lane can be quite awesome. So glad you enjoyed!
