I never cared for this song too much, but it was one of my mother's favorite. I could still see the album cover if I remember it looked like fire on the front. She passed away August 2, 2022. She was 72 years old. I'm her son, I’m 49 years old. I will be 50 August 16. I just came looking for this song just to remind me of my mom. Life is short people it’s just a blimp in time. Enjoy yourself miss you Mom.

I was at a Bob’s Big Boy in Midland, Michigan when I was 16, and I became extremely sick. I ran to the restroom, and as I was in the stall experiencing violent vomiting and volcanic diarrhea, this song was playing on the radio. This, unfortunately, is forever branded into my memory. The song will never not remind me of that day.
