Love is blue · Paul Mauriat

This song came up on my stream tonight. Always a memory triggered.

1968, I was a child, and my mother and I arrived early to downtown Greensboro for shopping.

I think it was Meyer’s Department Store. We arrived a few minutes before opening, but they let us in anyway.

I didn’t know the name of the song playing in the store, but I knew I liked it and it was on the radio a lot. Love is blue · Paul Mauriat.

The music system was turned up loud, I guess to rev up the store and employees for the day. The store was lit up and glittering, the music was roaring. Beautiful. My mom and I both liked it a lot.

Nice for a song to bring her memory back to me. Today marks her birthday.

I was watching a vid of a yummy German in Colombia speaking Spanish like a boss, and I thought, “uh huh, you got a fetish going on. I bet you got those direct and indirect objects down in a single night.” 🤣
