What Are Your Favorite Songs? Why? 🎵

Lol, at my age I no longer have favorites after the 1980's 😂🤣 I will start off with my girl Tina Turner's song <What's Love Got to Do with it>. Yes, back in the ages while dealing with a broken heart, I would put this song on and sing with Tina. To this day I am crazy about this song!!!

It was 1963 and I was at an 8th grade dance, they did a ladies choice and Beverly asked me to dance. The song was Don't Make Me Over by Dionne Warwick. Bev was my first love and we went "steady" for over a year.

Wow this could be a BIG list for me but for

today these are my two favs from my two

fav groups:

All you need is love, Fab 4️⃣

Gypsy, The Mac

These two songs embody what music is all

about for me, they both make me happy

when I hear them and brighten my day. 

I always turn them up LOUD as can be

while I sing and dance along 🎼💜

Could also be along list for me as well.

See Me Feel Me/Listening ToYou-The Who

I Wish-Stevie Wonder

Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis—Tom Waits

It's the fall of 1967. I am a freshman in college in northwest PA. My long time girlfriend is attending Juilliard School of Music in New York City. The distance apart and our changing way of lives became too much and we decided to end our relationship. I traveled to NYC to say goodbye. As we lay in bed crying on the last day we would ever see each other, Never My Love by the Association is playing. It is one of the saddest and most regrettable days of my life.

Our favorite song while dating was Oh How Happy by the Shades of Blue.

First of all, I really enjoy reading everyone's posts!  😺

I have to start off with these two favorites from the greatest band ever:

Let It Be and In My Life by The Beatles. I was a teen during the 60's, so I was into everything about The Beatles. I had different favorites as they released new albums, but looking back, these two are the stand outs. I've played Let It Be more times than I can count, especially this past year. It's a song of comfort and also a song of joy.  In My Life is a beautifully written song about reflecting on the past, and John was only 25 years old at the time! It's a nice "memories" song. So that's one by Paul and one by John for my top two Lennon & McCartney songs.

Oh, and I have many more!

HOTEL CALIFORNIA  EAGLES, I LOVE THE GUITAR BATTLE BETWEEN DON FELDER AND JOE WALSH. THE LYRICS ARE KIND OF MYSTIFYING TOO. AND THE HARMONIES, EAGLES HAVE ALWAYS DONE THAT WELL

.

PROUD MARY. TINA TURNER  THE LIVE VERSION IS FANTASTIC, I LOVE THE VIDEO, SHE STILL ROCKS HARD EVEN INTO HER SEVENTIES!

IMAGINE. JOHN LENNON  THIS SONG IS SO SO IDEALISTIC , SO MUCH ABOUT PEACE AND SHARING. ACTUALLY KIND OF HYPOCRITICAL CONSIDERING THE LIFESTYLE HE LIVED. STILL LOVE THE SONG THOUGH. 

FOREVER  KENNY LOGGINS. DON'T  KNOW WHY REALLY SONG IS JUST VERY PASSIONATE. 

THAT'S IT FOR NOW 

DITTO ON THE BEATLES BEING THE GREATEST BAND EVER!!!

ALL MY LIFE.  LINDA RONSTADT AND AARON NEVILLE. MY HUSBAND AND I DIDN'T MEET UNTIL WE WERE IN OUR FORTIES. WE'D BOTH HAD DIVORCES AND BAD RELATIONSHIPS. WE WE'RE SET UP ON A BLIND DATE ON NEW YEARS EVE, WHEN MIDNIGHT CAME IT WAS VERY AWKWARD. WE HAD FOUND EACH OTHER FAIRLY LATE IN LIFE SO THE SONG IS ABOUT US. 

Come Monday, Jimmy Buffett

My husband always told me he wanted

Jimmy Buffett played at his funeral, he

just loved him so much. He passed away

in 2018 and I had this song played at the

end of the service. There wasn’t a dry eye 

in the place for those who knew he loved

Buffett. This is my favorite Buffett song and

it helps me stay connected to John. Even

though I cannot hear it without sobbing still

to this day 🎼💜😭
