Happy Valentine's Day!

Replace "girl" with boy and that first verse couldn't better describe how most young fans felt when they crushed on David Cassidy:
"I can't start my day, girl, without thinkin' about ya
I wake up in the mornin' and you're there on my mind
I've been dreamin' about ya
You start feelings runnin' through my head that need no explanation
And the sweetness of your smile has captured my heart
It's such a crazy sensation"
-"Girl, You Make My Day", The Partridge Family on "Shopping Bag" album, written by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart

The rest of the song is even lovelier - who wouldn't be wooed by these lyrics?:
"You're the sunshine that I hold deep inside me when I'm cold"
"You're my forever and after"
Complete song lyrics on the David Cassidy Downunder Fansite. And what's not to love about Cassidy's vocals here? He gives "dreaming", "sweetness", "girl" and "day" just the right "punch" to make the song irresistible. He really sang those tunes perfectly, didn't he?

Wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day, whether you're crushin' or lovin'.

Happy Valentine's day to you and your family also DD.I'm going to spend this special day with my grand daughter. ;-)

By the way I just love this PF song.It has always been one of my favorites.I just love the way David sings it.And the lyrics like you said really express the way we all felt back in the 70's when we all fell in love with David.I sure would love to hear him sing that song "live" today.What a treat this would be!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!! :-))

Thanks DD!! Very appropriate for the day!!! This is the way I feel about him NOW! I could have the most stressful, disappointing day, and it all melts away when I listen to him sing. :-)

Happy Valentine's Day All!!!
