From Australia With Love.

Or 'Love Must Be the Answer', I've been struggling today for the right title for that amazing story about one David's fan from Australia. A lot of us know it of course, but I'm sure there are some new (and old) fans, who never heard about Lyn and that she won the 'Hard Quiz'.

But first a song. I've just had a short holiday at the Polish seaside, 3 days of doing nothing, only reading, walking, and sitting on the beach, and listening to David's music. It's such a pleasure to look at the sea and listen to DC's voice. His songs sound even better.

Someone wrote in comment 3 months ago, 'This song is absolutely stunning!' Oh yes. Everything about this song is stunning, but first of all, young David Cassidy's interpretation.  He was smiling in the music scene from The Partridge Family, but that lyrics is  heartbreaking. Just listen to this recording altered to reflect David's true voice. It's so incredibly moving.

Let's return to Lyn from Australia (she changed her name later to Lynne). Actually she is from Magnetic Island, and I've had a look in Wikipedia where it is, and what a beautiful place!

I wrote a lot with Lyn on the David Cassidy Website in 2018. At the time I was still a new fan and knew just basic facts about DC, and Lyn was so nice and kind, we share some stories about being a fan, she told me a lot about DC in Australia, and I remember so well when she took part in that TV show. That was something incredible, to tell the whole world about her love for David Cassidy, I admired her knowledge, but first of all her courage. And she not only won it, and even the host was impressed at the end, but Lyn also did something amazing. She reminded the Australians of David Cassidy.

This episode was watched in Australia by 630 000 people.

It was aired 5 years ago. On September 25th, 2019.

I've watched it again today with the same admiration for that wonderful woman. Thank you again Lyn. David would have been so proud of you..
