Hey Jude

Hey Jude is the song that always conjures up memories for me.  I was with my first college boyfriend when I first heard it and he sang it to me then and it became “our” song. ( Newcomers might not know my name is Judy, which I’ve always hated, but I loved being called Jude!) My husband called me that as well.  It is ironic that the only other time I had a “song” with a boyfriend was my first boyfriend ever. Every time the song “Mrs. Brown You Have a Lovely Daughter” came on the radio, he would sing it to me but change the words to “Mrs. Dykstra has a lovely daughter.”  It is ironic because when I married, I became a Mrs. Brown!!!

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Always Something There to Remind Me.”A song comes on the radio and instantly, you’re transported to a different time and place. Which song(s) bring back memories for you and why? Be sure to mention the song, and describe the memory it evokes.

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

    I dated a guy in high school who called me “Runaround Sue”. We met up on Facebook a couple of years ago and he, and also his still best friend, told me that they still think of that song when they think of me. Yes, my name is Susan.
