R.I.P Slim Whitman

One song I will remember all time. This was the song of my first love Rose Marie. She loved Country as same as me. We met at a dancing class. What a coincidence that they played the song when I felt in love with her.

If you've ever seen the movie "Mars Attacks" (one of the cheesiest SciFi movies of all times), Indian Love Call is the song used to defeat the invading Martians.
