Song of the Day: Paul Simon - Slip Slidin' Away

The memory attached to this song is riding shotgun in my Mom's rusty Toyota Corolla wagon (a late 70s model) listening to the AM radio. We were very often together, going here or there, doing this and that. I don’t think I had started kindergarten yet, because I remember, while my sisters were at school, I was Mom’s sidekick for the errands of the day. This tune stands out as the soundtrack to these isolated moments. Although the song is quite melancholic, these memories of driving around with my mother as a young boy are happy ones.
