• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

My Dad took us to see South Pacific in 1958. "This Nearly Was Mine" is a beautiful very sad song.

I love "Magic Moments" that my husband would play on his trumpet --- such a happy tune.

I have to cheat and sneak in a 1963 song. I only remembered how much I loved it, but didn't remember that it came out in the sixties! It was Blue Velvet by Bobby Vinton.

She wore blue velvet,
Blue as the stars in her eyes (if I remember correctly).

I was born in the 1960s but I listened to older & current music in the 70s & 80s. From the 1950s, I had an unfamiliar ( to me anyway)doo wop song: There’ll Be No Good Bye by the 5 Delights on a cassette collection of otherwise more familiar 50s hits. There’ll be No Good Bye seems like a real highly talented performance.
