My real name is Veronica. This song came out when I was a teenager, so you can imagine (in addition to hearing "how's Archie and the Gang") EVERYONE sang it to me! But I was just so happy that a song actually had my unique name! Parts of this song remind me of me. I'm not a grandma and I don't have alzheimer's (which unfortunately runs in my family), but there are some lines that are so me. "Devilish look in her eye", totally me. "They call her a name they never get right"...I can't tell you how many times someone can't pronounce my name, or called me Victoria, Vivian, Valerie, etc. In fact, my screen name, "brunicas" is actually a nickname I earned when I was a baby because someone misheard my name and thought my parents had named me brunicas! LOL. The line "you can call me anything you like, but my name is Veronica" is another line that reminds me of me. I have about 44 (at last count) nicknames. Everyone loves to make up some sort of nickname out of my real name. "She used to have a carefree mind of her own"...well, I have a pretty carefree mind (odd for a Taurus).
