This is such a cute, nothing song. Brings back such early-adolescent memories! Can you believe there was a time in our memory when Perry Como and "Catch A Falling Star" were considered cultural icons? Days long gone...and while I relish today's more complicated offerings the loss of Perry Como's simplicity is not altogether a good thing....
Oh, Kat, this is such a favorite of mine... simplistic, yes, but it has attached itself to me in such a way as it shows up every time a "falling star" graces the night sky. Thanks for sharing. -mg

His voice reminds me Frank Sinatra's voice.
Good song :)

Galit-G,
They were of the same era, but they really had a way different style.
Ralph,
I just like the sentiment of this song, and I do like that simplicity you mentioned.

It's always a pleasure when you stop by to visit.
Never let it fade away is one of my favorite lines from this.I keep a few in my pocket just in case.
