Where's the person who summarized Baby's and Johhny's story? I think she gets pregnant and then he stops coming which leaves her devastated. Her little boy grows up and is about to run away to sea, when a First Mate stops him. He has been looking for Brandy's son (Brandon) for years and has an inheritance for him. The Sailor had heard it was a boy and secured riches for him. Brandy can set him up as a prosperous merchant (of braided chains!) and he will never go to sea and break his mother's heart.

Then Brandon falls in love with a girl named Chardonnay...

I am not alone... Thanks for the memory, OP!

This song was popular when I was finishing high school and when I went to France for a year-abroad study in college, I purposely bought myself a braided chain made of finest silver in the north of Spain!

How about Wendy, always kickin' down the streets of the city and smiling...?

See Yacht Rock Revue at the Hamilton. Almost sold out already for the May show. They're amazing.

IKR!!!

Lord, he was an honest man!

I love this song.

Ever notice that Dancing in the Moonlight from the same era sounds like it was sung by the same folks? Anyway, I love the early 70s songs like this, even though I was born in late '67.

Also love David Essex' "Rock On"

OMG. I thought I was the only person ever who even remembered let alone loved this song. Have not heard it in ages.

was this inspired by the baby name forum where someone was asking about 'brenda'? I suggested brandy, because of this song, which I also love

I was named after this song
