Describe your favorite song I’d like to talk about the most touching song I’ve ever heard, the name of which is “Oh Sweet Lorraine”. The first time I listened to it was in an English class in senior high school. Our teacher introduced it to us. From then on, it has stayed in my playlist and no matter how many times I have listened to it, I always feel touched. This song is so impressive not only because of its beautiful melody, but also because of the romantic and moving story behind the lyric.The song was written by a 96-year-old man called Fred and it is written to memorize his wife, Lorraine,who had passed away, ending their nearly 75-year romance. I once watched a video interview of Fred. In this video.he illustrated how this song was written. "After she passed away, I was just sitting in the front room one evening by myself, and it just came right to me almost. I just kept humming it and singing it. It just fit her," As the lyric said,“The memories always linger on”. From their story,I recognize that true love is timeless and can defeat everything including death.
