I never knew Sparks were an American band until just now but I remember seeing this on TOTP and an 8 year old 101W thought Charlie Chaplin on key boards was hilarious

Sparks have so many great songs and albums... quite phenomenal that they're still releasing good stuff.101Walterton wrote: ↑23 Aug 2018, 5:35pmI never knew Sparks were an American band until just now but I remember seeing this on TOTP and an 8 year old 101W thought Charlie Chaplin on key boards was hilarious

This song will forever remind me of the summer of 2017. First summer post divorce that I felt relatively "normal" and happy. My kids and I played the heck out of this song that summer. I think because they heard it on a mix and liked it and started to ask for it. We listened in the car, in the kitchen making dinner, sitting by my mom and dad's pool, during many Friday night dance parties in the living room. I haven't listened to it in months and maybe feeling nostalgic as another summer winds down - I put it on. I love how certain songs can almost magically transport us to another place and time. It feels like more than a memory. I can put this song on and close my eyes and "feel" like I'm back in late summer 2017...which I know isn't that long again...but having started up my first serious relationship since my divorce last winter - life feels different and in some ways - 2017 seems like years ago. Anyway...just wanted to share the song (because it is - of course - awesome) and the moment.
...and hey...I'm closing in on 1 whole year as a IMCT member! :)
