Yes, the Milwaukee Brewers did it! They are World Series Champions! (No, I have not gotten tired of saying this, or hearing it!) I know I promised a show full of walk up songs today, but, for several reasons, I decided it would be more fun, and a little easier, to go live this afternoon! I will be continuing the theme of foreign artists who made it big in the US. I'll definitely have some Brewer reflections and tidbits (there will be more of those next week) and, of course, I will be happy to receive your comments, and take and play your requests, assuming they are in my collection.

The subject says it all. For some reason I cannot log in, so I can't voice track the show. And, unfortunately, I don't have time to do a live show today. I do have a message in to Jonathan; if he can figure out what's going on, and we can fix things, I'll definitely try to give you a show. If not, you'll have to wait until next week. Thanks for your understanding.

Yes, it's an episode I've been promising. Author Jo Elizabeth Pinto joins me on The Song Remembers When today to talk about her book, Unbroken Love. Hear about the challenge she accepted which led her to write the book, discuss its themes and great characters, and, as always, listen to music which fits with the book.
The Song Remembers When airs today from 4-6 pm eastern, and again on Thursday from 5-7 am eastern. Tune in to Mushroom FM on your Amazon device, your smart phone, or on your computer by visiting

Hello everyone,
There will be no episode of The Song Remembers When today. Nothing is wrong; the week was simply very busy and I need time today to rest so I can be ready for all this coming week requires of me! I look forward to being with all of you on Sunday, August 10. Have a great week, and stay tuned to Mushroom FM.

As you may have guessed, The Song Remembers When will be live this afternoon, beginning at 4 pm Eastern. My main theme is songs that contain names starting with the letter J, but of course, other requests are always welcome. I hope you will be able to join me. Please reach out during the show. Melissa@mushroomfm.com or @Melissa@Social.mushroomfm.com. Can't wait to be with all of you soon.

Due to Mother's Day, and wanting to spend time with my family, I will not be able to bring you an episode of The Song Remembers When today. I plan to be back next week. Thanks to those who have given requests; you can keep them coming at

My husband, Mark, came up with a great Easter theme for The Song Remembers When this week--bands or artists that resurrected their careers in some way. I thought this was quite clever, and I had fun coming up with songs to play. I saved the playlists for each hour, but did not have a chance to record my voice tracks yesterday. Unfortunately, when I tried to log in to record my voice tracks this morning, my program will not connect to the server for some reason. It just sits there with no response at all. So I guess it's taking an Easter holiday.

Because of a quick trip to Chicago to work with blind students, I will not be with you on The Song Remembers When this Sunday. I have submitted a cover request, so we'll see who might present their own version for you. However, I will be back next Sunday with more in my series of women in music. Please let me know if there are special women or songs you'd like to hear.

Tomorrow, December 14, from 4-6 pm Eastern, The Song Remembers When will once again come to you live! My wonderful husband, Mark, ran a cable for me, so I now have a hard wired connection to the internet. I hope this will mean no drops in the music from now on!
I really loved hearing from you during my last live show, so I hope you'll be in touch again. The theme for this episode is novelty Christmas music. I have started a playlist with some of my favorites, but please let me know what you'd like to hear.

You may have heard a rumor... I'm very happy to confirm it is true! This Sunday, November 30, from 4-6 pm Eastern, The Song Remembers When will be presented live on Mushroom FM for the first time! Join me for some leftover songs from the "performances" show (isn't this a great time for leftovers?) I will also play a Thanksgiving song or two, and will definitely begin to play holiday music since Thanksgiving has passed.
