Song 776: This week the playlist recognizes Day After Day by Badfinger, written by Pete Ham, and you can find a YouTube video of it by clicking on the title. When I returned to my Evanston, IL, apartment in September of 1971, after having acted as a summer missionary in Atlanta, GA, one of my friends introduced me to an attractive young woman he knew that I soon developed a strong romantic relationship with, and in light of our daily passionate exchanges, this tune that we started hearing a couple of months later gave a good background sound for that situation where I could give my love to someone who liked receiving it, and who gave me her love in return. On a side note, I did not have a lonely room in that apartment since I had to share it with another guy, but perhaps one, or both, of the other apartment mates could have had a lonely room since they each slept in a room by themselves.
