BEYOND THE BLUE HORIZON – Lou Christie

#1864 – BEYOND THE BLUE HORIZON - 12/5/2019

 I’m sending out this musical birthday wish to my sweet niece, Originally the signature song for classic movie star Jeanette Macdonald (one of your Grandmother’s favorites by the way) in 1933, this version is a cover by Lou Christie in 1974. It gained a second life when it was included on the soundtrack to the film Rain Man,

Why am I dedicating this to you, T? BEYOND THE BLUE HORIZON is one of my favorite happy songs. By that I just mean that I cannot help but feel happy when I hear it, just like when I think of you my loving, loyal, sassy, funny niece. You are a strong woman; a Mom to three wonderful daughters, a wife to your partner Brian, a kind friend to all and a daughter who makes your parents proud. I love you to pieces and hope you have a spectacular birthday, T.
