Frozen Noses / David Cassidy

-

It's not December yet, but today is very cold, there is  snow in the south of Poland, it will be very soon in Warsaw. So it's time for that wonderful, magical, amazing song wrote by 24 year old David Cassidy. All by himself, music and lyrics, and sang by him with such tenderness..

Like always with the DC's own songs, not very long, but he didn't need many words to 'paint a picture' of young love..This song is truly extraordinary, the side B of the single released in 1974. Side A, 'If I Didn't Care'. The teen idol's farewell gift.

'Her love burns inside his Heart..Lights his eyes when they're apart..'

Yes, there was magic in his voice, it's such a shame that he didn't record more. But it's life, and besides David Cassidy first of all wanted to be an actor, at least he said so in many articles I've read..Of course he was a very good actor, and I love him on Bonanza, Ironside, Flash, he was great as Dan, Joey or Keith, and so funny on Malcolm In the Middle, and if he wasn't great it was not his fault of course (a real fanatic writes this), so he was a very good actor, but he was an outstanding, wonderful singer. 

This one is for Judy who saw DC twice as Joseph. She is so lucky..

It happened that yesterday we had great problems with Internet (we have such from time to time in our forest), so I didn't write a new entry but watched Ruby & The Rockits instead, the first 3 episodes. And I couldn't stop thinking, 'why he didn't record more songs instead doing this..'. 

Don't get me wrong, the first episode was great, such a brilliant idea for a sitcom, and Cassidy brothers working together (including Ryan), really good acting, charming and so talented  Alexa Vega, and last but not least the future Elvis..Austin Butler was very good too..

Enough. I'm not ready to write my review of Ruby. Maybe one day. This is my last entry before going to London on Saturday. I will meet with other fans on November 21st..What can I say. It's going to be a very emotional time..

And PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION. So far 1209 signatures..

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
