From The Vault

Enjoy a link to a song, from our collective past. The song will not 'serve' one listening group, particularly, but will be one that, unavoidably, brings back memories, takes us to a happy place, in our past. A time or a song that many or most people would not be able to help but smile about, sharing the memory of it.

The Climb - Miley Cyrus
