I recently watched the 1985 film Back to the Future for the first time since I was a kid.

Christopher Lloyd is absolutely HILARIOUS! 😃

Watching the movie as an adult, I recognized that there were A LOT of jokes I didn’t get as a kid. 🤣

Back to the Future is a really fun film with great writing and fantastic acting!

I didn’t remember much from the film when I watched it as a kid, except for the scene where Mary McFly plays the guitar and is met with an awkward silence. 😂

It’s such a FUN part of the film!

I love Marty’s enthusiasm!

Chuck Berry, the father of Rock & Roll, created such a truly incredibly song!

Lyrics:

Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar just like a-ringin’ a bell
Go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
The people passing by they would stop and say
“Oh my what that little country boy could play”
Go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
His mother told him “someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying ‘Johnny B. Goode tonight'”
Go, go
Go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

Isn’t “Johnny B. Goode” just PHENOMENAL?! It is BEYOND impressive how fast Chuck Berry sings and plays guitar in this song.

I LOVE the story as well!

Don’t underestimate anyone. We all have different strengths, and we can all positively contribute to society in our own way! 💙
