This song comes from Evening Primrose, a hidden gem of a musical premiering on ABC in 1966. The plot focuses on a poet who takes refuge from the world by hiding out in a department store after closing, where he meets a community of night people who live in the store. He falls in love with a beautiful girl named Ella, who sings “I Remember” about the only time in her childhood when she saw the outside world. Her recollections of sky, snow, ice, and trees are described in reference to items in the department store: ink, feathers, vinyl, and umbrellas.
