Way-Back Challenge!!

Imgur

Hello! I have been nominated by @saffisara to participate in the Way-Back Challenge started by @greek-trail. The challenge is to pick a song from your past that brings back memories or has some significant meaning to you and then post them for 7 days. @saffisara has added an additional challenge to choose a throw back television show.

Because I never finished the positivity challenge, I will add that I am grateful for the music and the television shows of my youth. I grew up in the 80's and had a variety of both to choose from. The radio progressed into television and we had music videos to go along with our songs.

Music

The song I selected for day one of the challenge is "Wait" from White Lion. White Lion was one of the big haired bands of the 80s. They always sang such sweet songs. The 80's music was full of sentiment, love and guitar solos. I loved this song because I was young and thought I would fall in love like in all the songs. Innocence has value! This song brings me back to a simpler time when all I need to worry about was if my hair was flat!

Television

The television show I selected is called Quantum Leap. This was one of my favorite shows when I actually watched television in my later teens, early twenties. We would wait for every new episode and were amazed by the story line and the plot twists. Quantum Leap is about a man who travels through time and lives the lives of different people. He is there to solve a problem, but he doesn't know if it is the problem of the person he has become, or of someone in their lives. He finds out during the show and then tries to fix the problem before he leaps through time again.

ABOUT QUANTUM LEAP:
Scott Bakula stars as Dr. Sam Beckett, a physicist caught in a time warp, who leaps into the bodies of different people in different time periods in order to "put right what once went wrong." Sam becomes lost in time after prematurely entering the time-travel accelerator he had been working on as part of a secret government project. Sam's only guidance comes in the form of Al Calavicci, Sam's cigar-smoking, womanizing best friend, who appears as a hologram only Sam can see. Al, a senior officer on the time-travel project, explains that the only way Sam can return to his time is to correct something that went wrong in whatever period of history he leaped into. Using information from the project's artificial intelligence computer, Ziggy, Al is able to tell Sam what originally transpired in history and what change Sam will have to make in order to leap again. Over the course of the series, Sam leaps into all manner of people and has brushes with many famous figures in history, including Lee Harvey Oswald, Michael Jackson, Marilyn Monroe and Buddy Holly.
