Why We Need David Even More Now..

-

Me at least. I'm writing my last entry this year, btw it's amazing that I've been writing my blog for more than 2 years, nearly 170 000 views, life is really unpredictable. But let's start with a song, one of my fav, and a great video too

Oh yes, not literally, but of course he is the one we can always run to.

2022 was the year which started very, very badly and still the war is behind our (Polish) east border. But after all the year wasn't so bad, just an usual mix of good and worse days. Some were very difficult, it's just life.

But it was a special year because we've lost so many people who have been always present in our lives. Many of us, the DC fans, have lost the loved ones, and it's a kind of loss which changes everything, leaves a scar which will never heal. Hope our support on the social media has helped just a little bit.

But I'm thinking also about other people we've lost this year, strangers but still important. Like the Queen of course. Others, who were already famous when we were kids or teens. Some of them died too soon, but some were just very old. It makes me think about our mortality too. About the years to come. And loneliness.

I can't say for all the fans, but I think we need DC even more now than we were young. His smile, his music, the things he used to write to us. Yes, only when young we could think that 'This was supposed to last forever'..

There is the David Cassidy's Christmas Message from December 2016 on his website. ".we need as much love and support for each other now more than ever". He thought about his family but also about us. Love and light. Hope and support. These were never meaningless words for David. and it's a shame that he is not with us now, when life presents us with difficult challenges. But I know his music will never let me down.

Wishing all my readers and my fellow- fans  a very Happy New Year 2023.

  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...
