  • I love this song. The words are so descriptive...every phrase has a special memory. The old red chair...the like a bubble on a windy day...warm as the mountain in the sunshine...on snow line, etc. Words that bring back pleasant memories. Great song!

  • Ironic that JD is hosting the Tonight Show and future host Jay Keno is a guest.
