This was the era when music was pure, had meaning and memories with it. Chill music. Still listening from the Philippines

[@hyperboytkl1077]

This was the song playing in the hospital radio when I was hospitalised for very severe asthma in 1982. I was 11 yrs old then. Every time I hear this tune I can remember the smell and atmosphere of the hospital just like it was yesterday.
