if ours came in tubes they were all gone before i was a conscious human. these branches, probably 150-200 of 'em, were color-coded; but that may've been my parents' idea.
i always suggested keeping the lengths separate from each-other when we packed it up after xmas, and always they were thrown into the box together.

Okay !! ...there's how 'Live For Today' is a confabulation of an earlier Italian track.
But ...is this Song not conspicuously similar ??
...& - I knew it from Gerry & the Pacemakers
...but - not surprisingly - it was done earlier by a U.S. R&B group...
