Happy Birthday Buddy Holly - "Keep On Shining On"

[@thecricketssoundproject]

Lyrics:
Keep On Shining On
By Pete Carroll
Hey Mr Holly don’t be lonesome tonight
Hey Buddy buddy, you’re friends all found delight
You had a Rhythm with those songs
And the words just came out right
Any broken heart can feel your world everytime
And now all these embers are all burning bright for you
Up in the land of dreams, we know you love us too
You touched a place in our hearts
Cos you knew we had the blues
Now we all keep on shining on
Chorus
Everyday you seem to know me
Anytime I’m feeling blue
Many times I’ve closed my eyes and cried
In a broken world of lonely hearts so true
One of these days we’re gonna meet you in the sky
Standing with your Stratocaster
That’ll be the day I die
And how we learned them songs
With Buddy and his guitar gone
And the Crickets keep us shining on
We all keep on shining on
We all keep on shining on
We all keep on shining on
We all keep on shining on
We all keep on shining on
We all keep on shining on

This Song is Amazing!!!! Thank You Very Much for keeping Buddy Holly's Sound and Style Alive and Well. God Bless You. Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson RIP.❤️🎸🥁🎼🎵🎶

Thanks for listening Dave, very much appreciated :-)

@@thecricketssoundproject Thank YOU!!!! Buddy would be Proud and Honored by this Song. I think that Buddy Holly was the Grand Architect of Power-Pop. He created what I call the "Pop Song Template", the Winning Formula for a Hit Song. I always tell People that without Buddy Holly and The Crickets, there would be NO BEATLES. Listen to "Three Stars" by Eddie Cochran, who Himself, Died way too young, the following Year after Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper. Keep up the Good Work. You Guys are GREAT.👓🎸🎼🎵🎶🥁❤️⭐

@@DaveWarpony I agree Dave, without him, the others would not have been. Keep On Shining On ;-)
