Santo & Johnny - "Sleep Walk"
Some days you’ve got to shake yourself awake, and even then you can feel like you’re sleep walking through them. As the sun starts to warm us, and the days get longer I can’t help but think of lazy days by the pool or the beach as sweat trickles down bodies and glasses full of cool drinks with this song playing in the background. Summer is coming.
Santo & Johnny is an American rock and roll instrumental duo of Italian descent from Brooklyn, New York, composed of brothers Santo Farina (born October 24, 1937) and Johnny Farina (born April 30, 1941).
They are known best for their instrumental melody "Sleep Walk", one of the biggest hits of the golden age of rock 'n' roll, which became a regional success and eventually scored the top of the Billboard pop chart when it was released nationally during 1959.
At present, Santo is semi-retired and Johnny currently tours and records new material with his own band. Johnny is also the president of Aniraf, Inc., an international record company based in New York City.
So today, future memories on my mind, I choose Santo & Johnny’s “Sleep Walk” as my, find the light, live the life, shake the sugar tree, song for a, remember now, look to tomorrow, find the warmth, Thursday.
