Sincerely. But what a fun site! It is ironic that I've always said if you looked at my CD collection, you'd add 20 years to my age. I was talking to hubby as I looked this site up, and we cracked up -- we know many more songs from the turn of the 20th century than we do from the turn of the 21st. It is fun to look at the songs from their period in history, and extrapolate what was going on. In the 1890s through 1910 there is almost always a song that is from the US Marine Corps Band (Sousa marches, etc). Three Cheers for the Red White and Blue! At least they made you want to get up and move!
What's funny is to see some of my favorite songs listed.
Afternoon Delight by Starland Vocal Band! Oh goodness that brings back memories!
Hall and Oats Oh my! Just hearing "Kiss on my List" brings back memories of hot nights at the river and the never ending smell of Coppertone and Campfire smoke! (and the song Rosanna by Toto)
I truly couldn't remember any songs from 1971, poor brain development, I suppose! Blame it on the fact that me mummy was a smoker and birfed me 6 weeks early! so below is a whole list of songs, some of which I have never heard of and some of which I fondly recall singing and dancing to as a young lassie! Like Brown Sugar, Stairway to Heaven and Proud Mary! Oh, do I miss those simpler times!
Mine: 1957 ... "Jailhouse Rock/ Treat Me Nice" by Elvis Presley
James: 1960 ... "My Heart Has a Mind of Its Own" by Connie Francis
My daughter Nancy: 1979 ... "Sad Eyes" by Robert John
The day James and I got married: 2003 ... "In Da Club" by 50 Cent
LOL I think I have heard Sad Eyes, but I have never heard In Da Club.
Oh yeah, on the day I graduated high school it was: 1975 ... "Sister Golden Hair" by America. The day I first talked to James (via computer, March 30, 2000): 2000 ... "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child, and the day I met James face-to-face: 2000 ... "Independent Women Part I" by Destiny's Child. Finally, the day James arrived in SC: 2001 ... "How You Remind Me" by Nickelback.
When I was born = 1960 ... "My Heart Has a Mind of Its Own" by Connie Francis When I was freed from school = 1979 ... "Hot Stuff" by Donna Summer When the trade school was released from me = 1983 ... "Flashdance ... What a Feeling" by Irene Cara
