Comments on: Lost in the ’70s: Neil Diamond, “Desirée” http://popdose.com/lost-in-the-70s-neil-diamond-desiree/ your daily dose of pop culture Fri, 25 May 2012 17:23:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: JonCummingshttp://popdose.com/lost-in-the-70s-neil-diamond-desiree/comment-page-1/#comment-50608 JonCummings Fri, 22 Aug 2008 09:22:37 +0000 http://popdose.com/?p=4290#comment-50608 Thanks a lot, big guy. I've had "Desiree" bouncing around my head all day--and I didn't even bother to fire up the MP3, I know it so well. It was actually one of my favorite songs that winter of '78, though it was kinda lost amidst all the Bee Gees-related stuff dominating the charts.<br><br>That "girl almost twice my age" bit was...how to say it...stirring for my 12-year-old psyche (amongst other parts). I remember thinking about that song a lot later in the year, after 8th grade started and I was confronted with an unbelievably hot, young Earth Science teacher. Sad to say, this reminiscence is NOT heading into Penthouse Forum territory...but a barely adolescent boy could dream, couldn't he? Thanks a lot, big guy.
