I have a strange obsession with Bobby Darin.

I have always loved "Dreamlover". Ever since i was a little girl, i have been in love with that song.

As i grew up, i discovered that i actually loved a lot about Bobby Darin.

He was a real inspiration, knowing he may not live to be that old (due to a heart condition he had), he was driven.

He grew up thinking his actual grandmother was his mother, and his actual mother was his sister. I can't imagine how you would deal with something like that.

He also planned to elope with Connie Francis (another singer from the era i adore), and when her father found out, he threatened to kill Bobby, bringing an end to their romance.

He was a singer of many genre's, and made every song his own, He wrote some great song's and he acted. He was a very talented man. It's sad that he died before i was born, as i would have loved to have seen him in concert. And i am sure many other fan's would share the same opinion.
