Subject: Buddy Holly STILL Can Be Heard in Today's Music

I was driving kids to school this rainy AM when a bright and cheery sound came on the indie radio station. My kids of course, all love Buddy Holly - they are drawn to his music just as I was - and this song had us all just silently listening:

Search Amazon Music, or Youtube for "The Lumineers" and "Gloria"

It's a song about a girl, it has Peggy Sue riffs all throughout, has that rocking melodicness of "Rave On" and ends like "It's So Easy".

It's a driving rhythmic song - and a tasteful and smart production. I couldn't help but think it would be something Buddy would like to hear. In fact it did bring a tear to my eye - genuinely - because you think of the senselessly tragic way those guys died and yet here is that music.

I may be late to the party on this song, but it spoke to me and hope it does you too. Incidentally this is a very popular band and this seems like it is/was their comeback song, or at least kept them from being a one hit wonder.
