  "How Deep Is The Ocean?"-Irving Berlin (performed by Bing Crosby)     The song I chose for this blog is "How Deep Is The Ocean". I chose this song because I thought it was very beautiful and I have always enjoyed listening to Bing Crosby. As a child, I even listened to him and loved his classical voice and music.

I believe that when you are in a relationship and it ends, you will have bad days and at times may even feel like the world will end, but it will get better. The sun will shine, your friends will still love y...
