It is amazing how music can transport you. Great story and I love that you gave the photos the appropriate vintage vibe w/their treatment and framing. (mama, don't take my kodachrome...) Very fascinating page!
 
Love how you divided your page with the elements and placed the words on one side!
 
You brought back memories for me as well because one of my best friends was in Germany at the same time and taught me the song in German. Love the way you have the clusters and photos along the blended edge of the background papers.
 
very powerful reasoning behind the song---I have always loved it myself and never quite knew what the song was about! Great photos of the different times in your life and this page is so well constructed with lyrics, photos and the bright red of the border and balloon is just perfect for your song
 
The placement of your pictures and elements is a fantastic way to mirror balloons flying. I love it!
 
Love the retro pics. I remember the video in German on MTV before they started playing it in English. Wonderfullayout. Good luck.
 
wonderful blend of kits and great papers used. I like your journaling of your story and how it relates to this song. beautiful page!
 
Wow! I so relate to you. There's something about living overseas that small things bring it back years later. For us, it's the mainstay food of Ethiopia. Or their national costume which was often worn with such pride, and often. People that have immigrated to Australia still wear it here! :) Great page. Well done, loved the words and the journalling and everything else of course! :)
 
This is awesome, Lori! I was in high school when this song came out and really remember it from my German class. One of my goals in high school was to live in Germany...that never happened, but I someday hope to visit. I absolutely love how your photos an elements float diagonally across the page. The color scheme is perfect! Beautifully done!!
 
Fabulous page and great song choice, one of my very faves! Love the diagonal design, the paper blending and the gorgeous kit of pictures. Great clustering, love the torn papers + the stamp, good luck!
 
Fabulous page! I'm in the UK and can also remember both versions (it's the only reason I know that 99 is "neunundneunzig" in German. I love your split page effect, and thank you for the memories.
 
This is just beautiful! Love the papers you chose and the great pics. What a cool story. Good luck this week!
 
I love your story and your old pics! Your kit is a perfect match and embies so well selected! You did a phenomenal job nesting your pics in beautifully created clusters! Great layout and all the best going forward
 
What a wonderful story of how music invoked your memotire of a certain song, loved reading it!! Great pics to go with it!!! Love the vertical design and pretty clusters!!!
