Written by Andrew Gold and Sue Shifrin, Yes, the same Sue, so please think twice before writing something unpleasant about her career..

My song for today, so powerful and emotional, the lyrics and the David's voice and his vocal range.. I've thought about it because my oldest daughter was in Las Vegas last night. She is not a DC fan, when after November 2017 David's pics started appearing on my bedroom's walls she was rather critical at first, she couldn't understand why the late teen idol from the 70s became suddenly so important for her mother. Now she knows. She started her trip a few days ago in LA, and wanted to know where DC lived there..later Big Sur, and yesterday Las Vegas. She's asked where the Star is situated. And she's found it and taken pics and it was very emotional for both of us.

I think it's so important and really amazing what we, David Cassidy's fans, have managed to achieve during those 6 years. Without any help. Love, hard work and determination. Behind every single plaque there is so much work, everything takes so much time, so many emails, telephone calls, you wouldn't believe it. Sometimes it's easier when there is an important ally. Like it was in the case with the DC's plaque at Heathrow Airport, Service Manager at the airport, Mr Nigel Clarke was a fan himself. And now hundreds of thousands of passengers waiting at The Queens Terminal can read about David and his fans. I think it's just wonderful and I can't describe my feelings when I saw it myself last year.

What a great tribute video.

There are also benches with David's name, plaques commemorate his work on stage, his concerts at Wembley Arena, even a time capsule. His photographs or posters hang on the walls of cafes and restaurants. And now we can do more and support (and I mean not only money) a historical marker for David Cassidy. It's to be placed at Colgate Park, in West Orange, NJ. David Cassidy wrote about West Orange and his life there only with love. This is a wonderful, great idea to have a historical marker in a place where David Cassidy grew up and was loved and happy.

Let's make it happen!

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
