Janis Joplin. The girl who sang the blues — smiled and turned away. When I would date younger men the litmus test was this. “Do you know all the words to American Pie?” And if the started with Bye Bye Miss American Pie — we were done. Because they were liars. If they said — No. we had a chance. If they said “Long long time ago…” I was in love. ❤️
