FMM: Pearl Drive

My family - particularly my folks - like watching live bands. Even as kids, they would take us to music joints to watch live bands perform.

Two of the places we’d frequent were just near our house in Morato. First was “Birds of the same feather” in Timog, and the original Shakey’s along West Avenue.

Because of this, we were introduced to different song genres, especially in the 80s.

One of the songs that love bands loved to sing back then was a Leslie Pearl hit from 1982. It was a very easy-listening song with a very relaxing and laid-back melody.


“If the Love fits, Wear it” is one of those ditties that are embedded in my mental playlist. It was memorable the first time I listened to it in the 80s, and it still has that same effect now. 

And that’s what makes it a perfect Friday Magic Madness song.
