The fall season officially starts on Sept. 22 and our minds and moods trend toward the holidays. I really love when the leaves change color, yet I don't really love raking them up. Well somebody's gotta do it and I don't see any volunteers. As I rake, I start thinking of those moody September songs like Walter Huston's September Song, revised by Willie Nelson or Jimmy Durante. Of course most people these days think of songs like Neil Diamond's September Morn. If you can think of happy, up-tempo September songs, you may set your mind to See You In September by The Happenings or this same song by The Tempos. Let's also not forget September by Earth, Wind and Fire. Two of my very favorite September songs are Carole King's It Might As Well Rain Until September and September In The Rain by Rod Stewart or Dinah Washington. I should also include a song that sounds like a September song but does not mention September in the lyric, Bobby Goldsboro's The Autumn Of My Life. If any of these September songs seem like the kind of song you may like to sing in public, you need to join Rosie Ingalls, Barb Miller and D.J. Blast this month on Fri., Sept. 24 in the South Clubhouse. We begin our program 5:30 or 6 pm depending on the availability of the venue. Make this September special by singing the songs you love. Until then, we will continue to keep a warm disinfected microphone on for you. 30 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | SEPTEMBER 2021 | Sun Lakes Follies Pass the word around: THE FOLLIES ARE COMING!
