Saturday 9- I'd Really Love to See You Tonight

I'd Really Love to See You Tonight (1976)

Unfamiliar with this week's song. Hear it here.

1) This song is about a guy who, out of the blue, phones an ex. Have you ever spontaneously phoned or emailed a former lover? Has an ex ever reached out to you?  Yes, I have gone to see ex's and phoned them when I was young.  There was no e-mail then.  I have also had ex's reach out to me.  That is way in my past.

2) He suggests walking through the park, taking a drive along the beach, or watching TV. Do any of those suggestions appeal to you right now?  Those all sound nice!

3) "England Dan" got his nickname because he was a passionate Beatles fan and would affect a British accent when he talked about his favorite group. Are you good at imitating accents?  I love to speak in accents. 

4) Dan met John Colley when they were high school classmates in Dallas. When they were still kids, they agreed that "John Ford Coley" would be a better stage name. Think back to your high school days. Which of your friends daydreamed along with you?  My friend Britteny. 

5) After the duo disbanded, "England Dan" went to Nashville, billed himself by his real name -- Dan Seals -- and recorded country music. Who is your favorite country performer?  Maybe Dolly Parton or Johnny Cash.  I like old country.

6) Today John Ford Coley lives in TN. He performs occasionally and raises horses. Have you ever been to TN?  Yes, we stayed in Tennessee on our way to Florida.  We stopped to see the Chatanooga Choo Choo while we were there.

7) In 1975, when this song was popular, Foster Grant Sunglasses had a suggested retail price of $5/pair. Do you buy sunglasses more for fashion or utility?  I used to buy them for fashion...I LOVE sunglasses, but now that my eyes need prescription to see far away too, I have gone to prescription sunglasses and I need those to see and my eyes are sensitive to the sun.

8) The most popular movie of 1975 was Jaws. Have you seen it?  yes

9) Random question: Excluding anyone related to you by blood or marriage, what man are you closest to?  I do not really consider myself close to any men right now.  When I was in college, I had a lot of guy friends and we are still friends, but not close like we were in college.  I am not really "close" with the co-workers that are guys either.  I do consider them friends though.
