The Crown Princess at Ooh, A Shiny Pen has issued her decree for Fun Monday! This is her request:
Music plays a vital role in most of our lives. It is everywhere. I want to hear the ONE song that is you. The song that whenever it is heard, you smile. I am not looking for the soundtrack of your life, just that one song. Your friends hear it and think of you.
Aw, geez... do I have to admit this? This song has been following me around since high school. I would enter a room and kids in the class would start singing it. It was funny and highly embarassing and touching all at the same time. I was an incredibly shy teen and was uncomfortable being in the spotlight. Of course, every time it came on the radio, that spotlight turned to me full on. Awwwww... do I HAVE to tell you?
Sigh.
Okay.
The Hall and Oates version was available only as a still photo, but this is a nice rendition.
And as much as I may moan about it, guess where I got the inspiration for the title of my blog????
If you want to see the defining song of other Fun Monday participants, go visit the Crown Princess.
And come back tomorrow for your assignment for the NEXT Fun Monday - I'm hosting!

Awesome choice, Sayre. Some things are just destined, I guess!
I like that version a lot. Great choice.
You can go ahead and sign me up for next week.
Don't be ashamed of that song. I've always loved it! This is an awesome version.
Sign me up for next week too please!
Very nice song...we have some Hall and Oates vinyl albums around the house. I will have to see if we have "Sara Smiles." Thanks for giving a little history too. That is a grand song for people to sing when you enter the room.
A very pretty song to have for your life's theme Sayre, BTW "Radio Holtieshouse" used to be very much for listening to but over the last couple of years (about when I stopped buying CDs) it's become more of a background thing.
i love a song with a history. Thanks for sharing and playing. ALSO THANKS for volunteering to host.
I actually came over here expressly to see if that was your song choice... Good for you for embracing it! It's nice to have a theme song. I hear Hall and Oates are recording again, maybe they'll have a concert and dedicate the song to you on a live album.... :)
I knew it! I knew it!!!!
Not a bad song at all. I used to like Hall & Oats :)
Of course that would be your song!!
Takes me back...way back.
i knew that this would be your song! :)

I so love this ong too!!! gosh I love the oldies as they now call them!!! great choice!
Another song that new to me I am beginning to feel musically challenged. I enjoyed listening to it.
That is an amazing version of that song!

Could you sign me up for next week? Can't wait to see the new assignment!

You really do have your own theme song. I am green with envy.
Oh-h-h-h! Takes me back years ago. Great choice.
I'm in for next week. Please sign me up for your Fun Monday.
Oh that's cool! Great rendition!
I like Hall & Oates too, and can remember sunny summer afternoons with the battery radio out in the yard, trying (unsuccessfully) to get a tan and wishing I had a name that was mentioned in a song.....great choice!
hmmm, I don't think I had heard that one before. I always like Hall and Oates Because your kiss, your kiss is on my lips. . . .
Smile! :)
I'll be back tomorrow to sign up, you know I'm gonna.
I've always loved that song. That's a nice version, too.
Thanks for volunteering for next week. I'll be back tomorrow.

(and for the record, the only song that mentions my name that i know about is "dammit janet" from "rocky horror picture show." live with THAT one for a sec!!!!)
also, please sign me up for next week. thanks!!!
I'm new, and not totally following this "sign me up" thing, but sign me up! lol
I think I'm green with envy too!
Am I in trouble for not having heard that Hall & Oates song? I didn't realize you'd gotten your blog name from it.
I really like this version...it's a nice song to have sung to you.
I always got stuck with "A Boy Named Sue" UGH!
I'm in for next week too!
Ahhh, the blue eyed soul. I've always loved this song. You are so lucky :)
Beautiful! Great song!!!! I'm still waiting for a song about nekked lizards.
great choice for your song!! I love it....is that how you pronounce your name??
For some reason my computer is not complying with the rules and letting me hear your song! I am most frustrated but I am sure whatever it is I would love it! Because I know that I love you Sayre, you sure make me smile every day!
Oh its beautiful! I had to listen to the whole song. Wow!
Great song!
