Johnny Cash & June Carter.
Great choice! 
crowd. was so high. Husband is from Boston and I listen to their songs on the way up there.
very well known.
and it was the first one that popped into my mind for the post!
Oh, and another one I remember (just because I'm talking 'OLD SONGS') 'Mule Train' by Frankie Lane!
And for you 'younger folk' - Frankie Lane sang the theme song for 'BLAZING SADDLES!' (so you're not so young either!).
And when my folks took me to downtown Pittsburgh, I didn't want to see the 'Pawn Shop' - I wanted to see the pet store so that I could ask "How Much Is That Doggie In The Window!"
Good stuff, for sure! 
played Frankie Lane. Out of all they played Campbell was my favorite.
and amazingly, KQV became the 'teen' favorite, with the 'amazing' Jeff Christie as one of their DJ's!
UGH!!!!!! Turned out that he moved on in his career and became RUSH LIMBAUGH!!!!!!! 
"Happy" is the word! It was a song that bursts with HAPPINESS. 
funeral. I thought I would show my husband the house where I lived. I was shocked to see it torn down. 
song by Gordon.
song.
islands as his father was a Marine.
and Bill Taylor (lyrics), sung by John Yager — this is from the science fiction cult classic movie “Dark Star.” Dan O’Bannon’s character Pinback (the guy who opens the scene saying “What’re you gonna name it?”) gave me my username.
The song starts at about the 49-second mark for anyone who wants to skip straight to the music.
Bruce!

Galveston, it was being played everywhere and on most of the stations down there.
were from the Ukraine and Georga and were forced of their land by pogroms. I always wondered why they wrote it. I still like the Beatles and even this song. But it was something I always wondered about or maybe they wanted us to wonder about it--country was bad but people are the same everywhere. Thanks.
underage (18) at the time. But I got in. They put on quite a show.
when my basement flooded, Hope you are feeling better today. I was thinking about you. Take care. Love,deb.
Ugh, so sorry that you lost your Neil Young albums. It's awful when one looses their prized treasures.
I felt something coming on Saturday. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I was dragging butt. Tuesday evening I had a low grade fever. Took Wednesday off work. I went to do double jobs on Thursday and instantly regretted it. Today was an easy single client day and I rested when I got home. It's all sinus related but it really takes a toll on me.
Thank you my friend. Love ya!
listened to twice and it comes across that way to me.
John Denver
Joey wrote this song..aah.
Tikki
..I am in love with both of them.
Diamond and Neil Young!
Sorry, but songs about places have always annoyed me to no end.
Not sure why, but I have a visceral negative reaction.
That even includes those about Chicago & I've lived in that orbit my whole life.
A passing mention (like Winslow, Arizona in "Take It Easy"
don't bug me. But, if it's about how great some place is, it's a hard pass for me.
“Paradise by the Dashboard Lights” by Meat Loaf
“Hell’s Bells” by AC/DC
(Neither song is about a Michigan town, but the town names meet your condition!)
