Song 793: This week on the playlist you can hear Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me by Elton John, written by him and and Bernie Taupin, and you can find a YouTube video of it by clicking on the title. In early 1974, my wife and I had decided to leave the frigid Windy City area and have a more comfortable environment by moving to Atlanta, GA, so when Elton's request for continued enlightenment arrived around that time, I expected that the two of us would soon have a brighter habitat, and before long, we took a chance and changed our way of life, thereby getting to a shinier region. We found a very nice apartment on the first floor of a house, and we enjoyed spending a lot of time sitting on the home's front porch where we could listen to music we liked and sing along when we felt like doing that. The radio probably shared this glowing anthem quite a bit when we did that, but neither of us ever thought that we had gotten blinded by the light.
