The singer Billie Holiday was born today in 1915. One of the songs she sang is called The Very Thought Of You. I like the recording of her singing this song because it sounds cheerful and it makes me think of the people that I love. I include it here in the hope that It has the same effect on other people. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always. You can listen to the song here.

Celebrating Marvin Gaye
The singer, songwriter, musician and record producer Marvin Gaye was born today in 1939 and so, to celebrate this day, I’m sharing a song he’s famous for singing with Tammi Terrell called “You’re All I Need To Get By”. I like that song because it’s all about telling people you love them and how good it is to recognize that you have people that help you get by. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you have many people in your life that help you get by. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always. You can listen to the song here.
