Every day a beginning

I used to play this song over and over again. We did not have this particular 45 but we had the soundtrack to A Star is Born. Circa 1977. I was five years old, and that was most likely the last time I enjoyed attending a wedding, when my uncle got married.
No, wait, I do distinctly remember boogying down at my sister's wedding to The Doobie Brothers' China Grove.
Anyway, I'll be attending my brother-in-law's wedding on Thursday, where we won't be serenaded by the likes of the Barbmeister.

Tell me you two were able to resist singing along.

I had to do a waltz with my oldest.

It must have been our other sister's wedding that you danced to "China Grove." The only thing played at my wedding was "Here Comes the Bride" on saxophone by my Italian brother in law.
You were very cute in your owl glasses and silver satin dress. :)
