I'll Never Get Over You / Tony Romeo

-

It's hard to believe but I've never written about that song. Of course I watched many times DC singing it on the episode from Season 4, called 'Hate Thy Neighbor'. Never really listened to it, just admiring David's smile and his wonderful, long hair..and his amazing fabulous sweet voice..I would follow this voice everywhere..'I'll never, never get over you..'

And it started with a huge crisis I had yesterday regarding my blog and in general being a fan. I think each and all of us, the fans who care about the David Cassidy's legacy have from time to time. Does it make sense, who really needs it ? Those videos or blogs or whatever. For example THE PETITION. London Music Walk Of Fame. Everthing is going so slow. Is it possible that after a few months only 1015 people have signed ? And they are not only fans. Even my nephew signed it, and it's really something, I'm really impressed and grateful (he is 22 and thinks David was a girl). Of course it's not about the family signing the petition, but David's fans. So many still listen to his music. Why not more fans signed??

Another great song from 'Bulletin Board'. 'And I couldn't help but sing along..' So true

So I had that crisis and decided to find an inspiration in DC's music. And I started from the beginning. ITILY. I was listening and reading some reviews..btw I'd like to know at last when ITILY single was released. August 22 1970 - Wikipedia, October - The DC Official Website. In my opinion August is correct, it took some time the song entered Billboard Hot 100 (October 4th, 1970)

This is absolutely amazing how being so young he understood so well what the song was about. David Cassidy: ' Lyrically, ITILY deals with that moment in our lives when we're faced with the fear of commitment, the obsession with love, the obsession with not being alone, not being lonely, not being abandoned, having a partner. It's saying, I'm so afraid of the commitment. I'm afraid to say I don't know what it's all about..' (David Cassidy : Could It Be Forever? , 2007)

And at last I read the review wrote by Howard Pattow for comongethappy.com : " I'll Never Get Over You'. Tony Romeo's musical sequel to ITILY is every bit the Partridge classic is deserves to be.". And at last I listened to this song properly and fell in love with it..

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION

Kay Lenz, an Actress

Don't get me wrong, I'm not writing today's blog just to gossip about DC's private life, it's because I always admired that amazing woman, Kay Ann Lenz. She had birthday yesterday. 3 years younger than David, a few years older than a typical DC's fan.  In the 70s I heard quite a lot about Kay Lenz . She was very popular in Poland, like the rest of the cast of 'Rich Man, Poor Man'. That tv series was shown in my country I think in 1978, and everybody watched it, also a lot was written about the cast. So one day I read that Kay's husband was a former teen idol, David Cassidy. There was also a pic and I thought that it was just wonderful, I thought they were the most beautiful couple in the world. There was something very moving about Kay. I thought she was different than typical American actress. Such beautiful eyes, but her beauty wasn't an ordinary kind, not for everybody so to speak. When I was a teen I couldn't put in words what I thought a

They Said I Changed A Lot..

Let's first listen to something which was not released, why they didn't want David singing that song is a great mystery for me. Listening to his young, sincere, innocent and magical voice is one in a kind moving experience. You can just imagine David sitting next to you, with his guitar...and.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PbghG6czuw&t=6s Amazing. And of course we believe in David Cassidy and love songs. When I became a real DC's fan in 2018, there was something I used to discuss a lot with my English friend B. How David Cassidy kept changing. A completely different person in each decade. Or even more often. It was something difficult to understand for me. The many faces of David. Each album different from the previous one, different style and even his voice.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gvxt1WgaA B. thought there was nothing unusual about how David was changing, and I simply didn't follow his career from the beginning, I didn't grow with him, I didn&#

'I Just Hated Being In The Show..'

Last week someone posted a screenshot of the article from May 1974, unfortunately without the date or the name of the paper. Written by a popular journalist Roderick Gilchrist, I think it was Daily Express. We can read that this interview took place at London Weekend Television's Building, on the day before the DC's last concert in Manchester.  And David said, "I feel like the door to the cage has just been opened. And, any minute now I'm going to be able to fly right away from my prison. I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel because I'll be free again.." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG0hjhwKx5s His prison..Of course there have been other teen idols in the history of pop culture, but somehow for those from the 70s it was like someone put a curse on them. Nothing David Cassidy recorded later in life hasn't changed a bit that first opinion some people had of him and his music. My FB friend, Laurie Eby has written, "I researched 'New Y
