Teen Age Idol / Rick Nelsson / Beatles / Carl Perkins

Monday Sept 11, 2023

Lots of bands and groups break up going back to the Everly Brothers, Beatles, Eagles, Simon and Garfunkel and the list goes on, Captain and Tenile, married broke up and got back together,six years seems to be about the limit for groups and that is also about the extreme for a tv show, amazing if it lasts that long.

Ozzie and Harriet where we met their kids and watched them grow up lasted during the boom bull stock market years of 13952 – 1966, a perfect socinomic moment.

The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet is an American television sitcom that aired on ABC from October 3, 1952, to April 23, 1966, and starred the real-life Nelson family. After a long run on radio, the show was brought to television, where it continued its success, initially running simultaneously on radio and TV. In terms of seasons, it was the longest running live-action sitcom in U.S. television history until It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia surpassed it on December 1, 2021 (though it still retains the record in terms of total episodes produced: 435).^[1] The series starred the entertainment duo of Ozzie Nelson and his wife, singer Harriet Nelson, and their sons, David and Ricky. Don DeFore had a recurring role as the Nelsons' neighbor "Thorny"

Taylor Swift is doing New Eras and as I said at least she cannot break up with herself but back in 1962 another idol Rick Nelson recorded this song, I checked he did not write it, but it reflects the Vacation Movie theme if this is Paris it must be Tuesday

"Teenage Idol"

Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be

I need somebody to be my baby
Someone to tell my troubles to
I've got no time to ever find her
Cause I'm just passing through

I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

I get no rest when I'm feeling weary
I got to pack my bags and go
I got to be somewhere tomorrow
To smile and do my show

I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be
How lonesome I can be

50 women knockin on my door is what ruined the marriage of Desi and Luci, sad but true

Dressed it up and they called it me
