My husband found a way to always have this song played on our anniversary. Whether it was a song request on the radio, queued up in the car, or the time he tried to learn to play it on the saxophone to wake me up. The most memorable one was when he got my whole office to sing it. Even patients joined in. And he came out in a patient gown with a rose in a biohazard bag. I worked at the VA. People talked about it for quite awhile. For the record, none of the other patients were in gowns. I wasn't in that part of the facility then. I think he just liked showing off his hairy legs.

Kenny told the story about this song at a celebration of Lionel Richie. He basically said he called him and asked him to write a song and lionel told him he had a song he tried to pitch to the Commodores. So he flew him out to where he was recording and the only word he had was lady dadada dada dada. So he sat at wrote some and gave it to kenny he went and recorded the first verse and when he came out and asked for the next verse they told him Lionel is in the bathroom writing it he does his best work under pressure.

I remember them playing this song on the radio and my siblings and I would sing it trying to be famous in a station wagon the way to a bluegrass festival...this song brought back some serious memories. Keith, sing it for her anyway. It doesn't matter if you completely suck, if she loves you, she will love that you tried even if you can't carry a tune in a bucket. And I'll behave as far as Dustin is concerned. (yeah, I think he's cute) Anyway, the bourbon... It seems to have a great color. I'll add it to my list for bourbons to try starting in January.

"You Light Up My Life." "The Gambler" "She Believes In Me" "Through The Years" But..."Coward Of The County" should really be your next Kenny song.
