Day 9 of the 30-day Blogging Challenge

ITILY. What? That’s what I first thought when I saw this acronym used in conjunction with David Cassidy. To a seasoned fan, that’s a sure marker for one who is NOT a Partridge Family or David Cassidy fan. Well, obviously, I’ve since learned it is none other than the Partridge Family anthem. (Note to Elle’s offspring, your assignment in this David Cassidy lesson is to please leave a comment letting me know that you’ve solved this acronym. I want to make sure you’re paying attention and learning. )

What made me want to post this today is because Elle posted about Oprah yesterday
and David Cassidy performed ITILY on Oprah in 2008. For PF and DC fans alike, it was a heartwarming performance. The audience, a bit more mature now as well, has managed to restrain themselves somewhat but they’re still pretty enthusiastic about the whole thing. I wasn’t able to embed this video so I provided a link to it at the end of this post.

But first I wanted you to see a very young David “then”, even before the shag, lip syncing this song (thanks to fritz5112). He’s adorable to say the least:

And now for the Oprah version live, wearing the same colors? Interesting. He may look a bit different, but he still knows how to charm his audience.
