Hi, it's really great to see so many Holly-fans.
My name is Torbjörn and I live in Sweden. Age of 24 and I've been listening to Buddy since I was 16-17. Thanks to the movie American Graffiti.
The thing I love most in life is cruising in my Pontiac Bonneville 1968 with my fiance, listening to Buddy Holly. When I met her she had no clue who Buddy was but now she can sing several of his songs. Great isn't it? =)

Quite incredible that a man who died nearly 50 years ago is a common interest for so many people. I don't know everything about him but I can listen to his music for hours. Guess the feeling when I borrowed a Rolling Stones record from my dad and a few minutes later I heard Mick Jagger singing "Not fade away".
He's truly the greatest musician ever. Just listen to the way he compose a song, how the words fits perfectly to the music and how he sings it. Only a few artist can do that. John Fogerty and John Lennon are two.

Well, I see you in Lubbock 2009!
Until then we'll listen to those records all over again.

Mange hilsner fra Tyskland til Sverige,

in my youth I visited Denmark and Sweden very often.

It was amazing to find friends talking about my hobby, Buddy Holly.

Maybe you can help me.

You know that a part of Roxette was a member of Gyllene Tider (I hope I wrote it correctley).

Gyllene Tider had a song about about Buddy Holly.

I have this song, but I dont't understand everything.

Could you please translate it for me and for the complete audience ?

If you have the lyrics, I'd like to publish them on my website, that's dedicated to my idol BUDDY HOLLY.
