For the Lounge, my favorite Peggy Lee song, I think it fits tonight.

Join me in a nice drink of something and enjoy the song.

It took me a long time to understand this song.

1. Peggy Lee is one of my all time favorites

When I was a kid, my mom would put on the Peggy Lee record and dance while cleaning the house. She always started with Fever and Is That All There Is would play after.

3. I like Fever, what a song.

Is That All There Is is a special song for me.

I discover this song when my Aunt who raised me became very ill when I was 13 years old.

She passed away a few years later, a slow painful death.

This song stayed with me all these years.

7. I have a similar response, and for very similar reasons.

Its strength does seem to lie in its combination of sadness and determination. Sometimes you think you'll die, and you don't, and that's wonderful but leaves a mark too.

8. I had some tough teen years when I needed my Aunt.

I would play this song, and I would feel better.

2. And the idea of finding joy, I agree with.

I would have a beer with you, but alas, have not had that issue corrected yet, but enjoy your drink of choice, and an extra temporal, :toast: to you.

From when I do get the beer and travel money, and many good times that I will have :)

4. To me this song is postive not negative.

It means to me to enjoy you life.

I have nice cold beer ready to go.

:toast:

[RandomThoughts]

5. I see the positive in it also, it is about not letting the bad stuff

get in the way of the good stuff.

6. It took me a a long time to really understand the song.

No one can sing it like Peggy Lee.

11. Nah gah happen

But you already know why. Seabiscuit.

9. Found a pretty lady in pink in this post.

Note the temporal correlation :)
