Day 06 - A song that reminds of you of somewhere

This one's hard for me - songs mostly don't remind me of places. I'm going to go with John Denver's "Calypso" which reminds me of my childhood home, specifically in the living room watching television, purely because I remember that my mother admired or liked watching Jacques Cousteau. Interestingly I don't really remember which - it's a very vague memory and I wonder whether it is even accurate or only a child's interpretation. Nonetheless, the song (referring to Cousteau's boat, Calypso) reminds me of her. I don't know if we ever even listened to the song together at any point...or if she ever heard it...or would have liked it.

Enh. Enough babbling. A Youtube link:

Thank you for this one. I'd forgotten how much I loved this song, and frankly, still do. And how much I crushed on him when I was 5 to 8.
