Monday Murals - Moore Square - Raleigh, NC

Located on Blount Street . Moore Square . Raleigh . NC

And that's all I know about that.....but it makes me think of "butterflies are free to fly...fly away....."

I remember walking to the 7/11 around the corner from my grandparent's house and buying the 45 of this as a kid...yes, they sold 45's at 7/11 back then!

Linking with Monday Murals

Have a great Monday!

  2. The mural does give a great sense of freedom... Mr John is playing an outdoor concert just around the corner from us this summer, I'm sure he's still very popular too.

  3. Thank you for the EJ reminder - I will look it out and add to my MP3 player immediately! And, for what it's worth, I remember 45s too!

  8. This is awesome, I love it. It is different from most,no big splashes of bright color. I remember when this song came out! But I had no idea that Seven Eleven sold singles! If you still have it, it may be a collectors item.

  13. Butterflies, wispy though they be, exude the breath of what it means to be free. That's a great song, too!

  22. I like the interest murals add to a city. I didn't know they sold records at 7-11. We didn't have 7-11s where I grew up, either. Maybe that's why.
