    You know Steve, you always seem to have wonderful songs and of course they pertain in some way about my life. After the end of my first year as a teacher my first class ( 40 wonderful kids ) took me into a room and wanted to sing me a song and guess what was that song? You named it. ♫ To Sir With Love ♫ . It was so hard for me not to cry and I was very appreciated for the thought those sweet kids and even to this day I still see many of them in Amherstburg. Crazy wasn’t it.
    Now the second song, ♫ Tears Of A Clown ♫ by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles also was important since I live right across the Detroit River from Motown. Many of the most important singers were there during my young life and I also met Stevie Wonder when I was working over at Bob Lo, an amusement park where Stevie Wonder came over one day with his people. He was very respectful to everyone and even spent some time with me and a couple of others on the island. Fantastic wasn’t it.
    Thanks again for the music that always brings me back to my youth.

    Have a fantastic Day my thoughtful friend. See ya.

    I love the first two songs and am not familiar with the third one. This is fun having nice songs every Monday. You have a great day.

    Steve, Smokey Robinson has such a smooth voice. I just love his style! My youngest niece met him Smokey once. He comes across as really nice guy on talk shows or posing with fans in photographs. I think I would like to meet him one day, too. Thanks for the dance!
