#MusicMovesMe #Blogboost Johnny Cash A Boy Named Sue

Being born in 1964  I wasn’t sure which song to share this morning as they was highlighting 1969. Since Ramblin With AM chose to hightlight Elvis Presley and Suspicious Minds one of my favorite songs by Elvis I thought I would mention In The Ghetto but she also share it. So I decided to search for a song online.

As soon as I found out Johnny Cash had written A Boy Named Sue in 1969 I knew this would be the song I wanted to highlight. Johnny Cash the Man in Black was one of my parents favorite singers. My parents never wanted to attend a concert until June Carter Cash and Johnny Cash did a concert at Billy Bob’s here in Fort Worth, Texas. My dad took my mom to this concert and both of them never stopped talking about seeing the show.

1969 – #MusicMovesMe #Blogboost

Fast forward my daughter is born and we share our love of Country Music with her and she becomes obsessed with Johnny Cash and A Boy Named Sue. I wish I had been able to take her to one of Johnny’s concerts before she passed away. Although that didn’t happen. Nor was I able to see Johnny Cash before he passed away.

Fast forward and Charlie is now 11 and just like his sister Suzzane Charlie is obsessed with Johnny Cash and  A Boy Named Sue and One Piece At A Time. I love how Charlie’s love of music has brought our family closer together. I can’t wait until I am able to find Charlie and David a T Shirt and the Vinyl Record of A Boy Named Sue.

I would like to invite you to join us next week in #MusicMovesMe because if your like me you can’t wait to see which era they highlight. Now excuse me as I go visit the other Bloggers and see which songs they have chosen to share with us.

Thank you,

Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
