The Troggs - Love Is All Around

[@mountainmantararua8824]

I can remember slow dancing around the kitchen floor with my wife and small baby daughter between us in 1967. My wife has now gone to beyond the sunset, but I still have the memories.

Beautiful memories ❣

[@SouthernStorm_61]

My condolences to you, friend. 🙏💖

[@godehardbrysch7905]

@@SouthernStorm_61Greetings from Germany, near Cologne. I' joining the condolences, but there are great memories no one can take away. My first daughter was born in 1976, she has liked the Wet Wet version well known from 4 Weddings And A Funeral. This Troggs' song was my personal number one as well, followed by The Dave Clark Five "Everybody knows" which was sentimental and sad, typical of my personal life. The video is amazing and I am quite jealous, such a beautiful girls in the train. One can easily fall in love. Thanks to the UK which inspired the world with such songs, it was a bit different UK in those days.

@@godehardbrysch7905 Thank you, my Kamerad. I am fro Georgia. My mother was from Italy. Trieste. She spoke German, Italian, Croatian, and English. Greeting to you as well. I believe the ability to speak German is what saved her and her family during WW2.✌

[@godehardbrysch7905]

@@SouthernStorm_61 I admire your mother, a true European, which we Germans were unfortunately not in those years. It's now so wonderful that we have free movement and so many nice people from Italy and Croatia in our country. I speak German, English and French, some of my friends have learnt Spanish, Italian seems to be more difficult than Spanish, A further reason to admire your mother. My two favourite love songs are "Honey" by Bobby Goldsborrow" and "Someone like you" by Adèle. both are really sad. Thank you for answering, wish you all the best.

Unfortunately, I got so caught up in the War, doing 3 tours, that I lost her ... and myself 😢. 173rd Airborne Brigade/74th Infantry Detachment/LRRP '66 - '69 But, in June, 1977, I met another wonderful lady who literally saved me.
