Follow up songs...
Have you ever finished listening to a song and then been left wondering what happened next? What went on after the young lad experienced 'Summer The First Time'? Did he hang around for a long term relationship? And what about Papa Don't Preach? Did Grandpa grow to love the baby? The theme is songs that really should have had a follow up. Let your imagination run riot and tell us what happened next...
