It Doesn't Matter Anymore

from the KTEP Folk Fury broadcast of 28 Feb. 2009
Rod Crosby: guitar & vocal

Rod Crosby here. Love this song. Played this song a lot in my earlier band days when I realized I had to give up my first true-teen love interest, the beautiful dark-eyed Anita Marie Moskal. It was pretty much like the song, close enough to realize that we would have to go our own ways, because we were just too young. However, that time we had was great, full of teenage angst, and discovery of all kinds, and they can never take that away from us.

This song was written by Paul Anka way back in his youth, before he ever became fore-front famous, and Buddy recorded it first. Paul is still performing and composing, going strong as ever.
