No matter what phase of music I enjoyed, from heavy metal to punk to Christian, John Mellencamp was always a favorite though every decade of my life. I remember being 16 and hearing his lyric, Hold on to 16 as long as you can, changes coming around real soon make us women and men' and I took it to heart.

When my daughter was young, we went to see John Mellencamp perform in Ames, Iowa. I was thrilled to be able to introduce his music to her.
I loved 'Cherry Bomb.' The lyrics and video reminded me of my family and all our home movies without audio.
