Music Jukebox – Special Gifts for Special People

By Robert Allen Byrnes

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

“How I long for that old Kentucky home” were the words to a very popular song years ago. Why was it so popular? I don’t know, except it touched a cord of nostalgia in the hearts of many listeners. Hearing a song, whether it’s the words or the music even coming from that old music jukebox; smelling the familiar fragrance of Grandma’s lavender as you walk past a stranger or seeing a rustic, provincial homestead can stir up visions from the past. I’ve never been to Kentucky, but my heart still yearns for my long-gone, happy childhood every time I hear that song or even its title.

That’s why Nostalgia gifts are so relevant for the times. Whether it’s the sno cone machine, the juke box, the cotton candy or pop corn machines, they all trigger that special sense of nostalgia that brings back the feelings of the security of our childhood home and the warmth and love of those no longer with us. Remember how you felt when your parents surprised you with your first puppy; the trips to the circus with its cotton candy; your first dance with the juke box playing those romantic songs and you were the “belle of the ball”; your first baseball game ending in your spectacular catch; your first kiss?

Think about it. You take a little whopping spree into your local mall and you stumble upon a vintage toy that takes you back to when you were just five years old and you find yourself reminiscing over those wonderful years when things were much simpler. Just those few moments of nostalgia can help relieve the strain of coping with the day’s trials and responsibilities and give a lift to your spirits.

Most gifts are welcome and exciting to receive. But one that is as unique as a Nostalgia gift, able to evoke such intense emotions each time you see it, touch it or use it, is one that keeps giving throughout a lifetime, because of the memories that linger. It is a gift most appreciated because it is more personalized than even a monogrammed gift; it reaches to the very heart of the recipient.

These special gifts can also be the answer to a very common dilemma, and you probably know what it is before I say it: the gift problem. In everyone’s life there is that person who is the bane of your holidays: the one most difficult to shop for. I had a sister who was very special, but she was also very particular with what she used, wore, ate or anything else that pertains to keeping alive and pretty. What do you do about birthdays and Christmas? To ask her was to get the reply: Just surprise me!

Yes, I do believe that women, especially mothers, are more prone to explain just what they want, even where to get it. In the case with my father, it was hard because he wanted to be sure to get exactly what he wanted, no substitutes accepted. I suspect he needed to feel it, hold it and carefully inspect every inch of it because it was usually a tool of some kind that he wanted and it had to be just right. I just remember something besides a tool he would have loved-a music jukebox.

But now, eureka! I think I’ve found something that even sisters like mine would welcome with open arms and euphoric expressions of “Thank you! I’ll share with you, that I believe it’s these Nostalgia gifts I’ve discovered, and one in particular, will bring back sweet memories that I bet she’s long ago forgotten.

I guarantee he would be pleased really pink with something like a music jukebox, a neon sign, a special electronic gift, or some other unique gift. Because it wasn’t the usual tie or belt, some kind of shirt or shaving lotion, he would feel really special. With the men folk uniqueness seems to be a key element for satisfaction-and that’s what you are looking for in a gift.
