I had to dig back to 1969 South African music for the reference.
And it's been long enough! I do remember seeing that first walk on the moon years ago even though I was away at summer camp since my friend and I were walking by the camp nurse's cabin at the right time and were invited in to watch it with her on her small TV, likely the only girls at camp who saw it. We were lucky!
