#30DaySongChallenge Day 29 A song you
remember from your childhood

This is the first song I remember hearing on the radio. I was about 6 and my sister, my mom and I lived in an apartment on 3rd Street in Santa Monica. After the divorce but before the commune/cult where we lived for 3 years...

"Delta Dawn" is a song written by musician Larry Collins and country songwriter #AlexHarvey. The first notable recording of the song was in 1971 by American singer and actress #BetteMidler for her debut album. However it is best known as a 1972 top ten #countryHit for #TanyaTucker and a 1973 #USNumberOneHit for #HelenReddy. Though the song is attributed exclusively to Collins and Harvey.
