"I Know a Place" by Petula Clark

Photo I took in Washington Blvd. in Ogden a few weeks ago

I was working on a depression again this morning.  What is it about holidays (I was very depressed on the 4th of July too).  I was playing an album that had "Downtown" on it and I was thinking about the line "linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty".

That reminded me of another favorite song: "Neon Rainbow" by the Box Tops (see my post for 12-Nov-2012) and I started to think about how the "Neon Rainbow" is gone.  There aren't many neon signs left downtown anymore.

I'm pretty sure that building above, had neon lights back in the 60's.

Anyway, I already posted "Downtown in my old blog back on 8-Nov-2012.  I always thought this song was reminiscent of "Downtown", so I thought I would post it for today.
