He Always Kept Me Forever 15..

-

This is something I appreciate a lot. That because of David Cassidy and my blog, I 'meet' so many wonderful people. Some of them also in person, like my friend B., whom I visited in  May this year (Wiltshire), or Diane, who showed me 'her' Cambridge. I can also say something about Luton because of Doreen. And there are many more amazing people. We, David's fans are like family, (and we quarrel too).

Some fans write comments about my blogs and many times their words are so moving or stick in my head..But the song first, I think it suits today's blog the best

She's found such right words for our sorrow and our gratitude for him. I didn't grow up with David, but watching old videos and his pics, listening to his music, I can imagine, I know how it was..Waiting for a new Partridge Family episode, for a new song. A young girl in love..

Yes, in a way he still keeps us young at hearts. He was a great singer, a great interpreter, that's a reason his voice, the lyrics of his songs are resonate so much with our feelings, emotions, our experiences. I've heard so many songs about loneliness and the end of love, but you can't imagine how I was moved listening to this song for the first time a few years ago. Exactly how it was..that's what I felt once. I thought this memory was buried somewhere deep inside me, long forgotten, but because of David's singing..After listening to that song I became a die hard fan.

And it's such a shame 'we will never experience being old with David'. What he would sing now, what he had to say to us about being old..

Please SIGN THE PETITION. Long Live Cass..

    Hi Weronika, I really like the title, "He always kept me forever 15..." I agree! I would like to share that he ALWAYS keeps me young in my heart. Even though life (and getting older) get us down, we are all so blessed to have David! When I get upset, worried, angry, etc., all I have to do is see one of the many pictures of him smiling, or his videos, and I feel happy again! I feel like he was always our friend, and I believe that he will always love and care for us. When I see him smiling at us (there are also some pictures of him looking at us, as if he wants us to tell him about everything that upsets us. I love these pictures of him too), I feel like that is his way of saying that everything is going to be OK.
    Since David can no longer make any more CD's, etc., I believe that since he used to love to sing and play the guitar so much, I believe that he is still singing to us. I always also hear him singing to us in the other songs on the radio that we love, that he never recorded or sang. I have felt this way ever since I became his fan.
    When I was in my teens, I had 2 pen pal David friends, who I have met and enjoyed getting together with. One of them passed away, and I sadly lost touch with the other one. I have tried to find her, but I still cannot.
    Since David passed away, I feel that he is still with us in Spirit. Also, since then, you have started writing this blog (thank you so much again!), and so many David Facebook groups came along. I thank God and David for becoming friends with you and so many other David fans! Even though we have never met, we are still friends to share with. We all have one wonderful thing in common, David! Thank you all again for being David fans, and for all that you have done and do for David! God bless you all.

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971..And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago..And I really felt sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission:Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope..But we would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s  In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published :' He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it off from that first day six months ago.(..) I resp...

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

'He Was So Pretty You Couldn't Look Away..'

'and sexy in a way that is timeless.' It's from Kevin Fallon's article published on www.thedailybeast.com on November  22, 2017.  Maybe it's not the smartest thing to do, but the newest article about David Cassidy on Record Collector Magazine, and first of all different pointsview of it, made me have a look on some articles published after this horrible day,  November 21, 2017. But first a song. We experience another heat wave here in Poland, I haven't seen a rain in many days, which is scary, so maybe a song about a rainy day. We miss David on any day, and this is one of his best songs. And amazing, very moving tribute video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ6qjfK72L8 We have 42 web articles from November and December 2017, on the website, and I can't see Kevin Fallon's on the list, even that I'm sure I sent it Jane last year, because this is not the first time I'm writing about this article. I'm a former librarian, I believe everything sho...
