about

We're very pleased to share with you a new release by Christopher Cash and the Brilliant Deductions called “Sacred Heart.” A while ago, I found out via Facebook that my very first girl friend died unexpectedly. I had remained distantly connected with her over the years but news of her passing really hit me hard. I didn’t know quite what to say. Diane was always fun, funny, adventurous and most of all kind.

I met her online, well before the Internet… how you ask? Back in the early Seventies, there was a number you could dial to hear the time: “At the tone, the time will be…” an automated voice would repeat over the telephone lines. It didn’t take long for kids to realize that everyone calling in was added to a “party line” so in the background behind the time telling robo-voice kids would holler out their phone numbers so others could connect with them.

Diane came from a pretty strict Catholic household, but we found plenty of opportunities to steam up the back window of my ’64 Ford Falcon. She was attending Sacred Heart school, and I used to chuckle to myself that the Nuns there would blush if they knew what she was thinking about in class. We had good fun together. I treasure the times we shared. Diane was a very special person and the world is a lot darker without the light she brought into it. Like the song says, like a “cool moonbeam” I know she is shining down on us still.

Enjoy. Let us know how you like it. Diane, this one is for you.

lyrics

Sacred Heart by Christopher Cash

You take me right back to ‘74
Super Tramp and Gerry Ford
Bobby socks slipping down your knee
You were more than I’d ever dreamed.

Did you think that I couldn’t tell?
You spun me up like a carousel
Coming down made the engine scream
You were more than I’d ever dreamed

And all of the days gone by
They don’t matter ‘cause the time just flies
You will always be part of my sacred heart

I didn’t always treat you fair
But there were moments beyond compare
Now smiling down like a cool moonbeam
You’re still more than I’ve ever dreamed

And all of the days gone by
They don’t matter ‘cause the time… the time just flies
You will always be part of my sacred heart

All of the days gone by
They don’t matter ‘cause the time just flies
You will always be part...
My sacred heart…
