Where It Begins

“[Penn State] has pulled the classic Neil Diamond song, ‘Sweet Caroline’ from its musical program for the upcoming season, according to a report by the Altoona Mirror. School officials made the call to pull the plug on the popular sports anthem after expressing concerns about the nature of the song and its lyrics. The song’s chorus features the line ‘Touching me, touching you’ and was written to describe an 11-year-old Caroline Kennedy.”
