The topic of this journal is, yes, based on the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, but no, its not about the political and economical statuses of the times. It's about music. Unlike a lot of people my age, I love music from these three time periods. I have a youtube account and I've got a playlist just full of songs from then.
50's: One of my favorite songs from the 50's is 'Mack the Knife', by Bobby Darin. I listen to it almost every other day and can never ever get sick of it. I also really like 'Catch a falling star' by Perry Como. Another of one of my absolute favorites is 'Fever' by Peggy Lee. Its so addictive for me. Also, I really like 'Earth Angel' by The Penguins, and I've heard it ever since I could remember.
60's: I LOVE 'Moon River' so much. Its one of my absolute favorite favorite songs. I can never ever ever ever get sick of it. I listen to it so much its unbelievable. I also absolutely love 'A Nightingale sang in Berkeley Square'. I also LOVE this song so much, especially the Nat King Cole version. Another song I like from this period is the Elvis Presley song 'Are you lonesome tonight?' I also like a couple of the Beatles song from this period. Especially 'Blackbird', its such an amazing song. Another song I like is 'I Left My Heart in San Francisco'. Also, I like the song 'Don't Rain on My Parade' sang by Barbra Streisand on the musical 'Funny Girl'.
70's: One of my favorite songs is also 'American Pie' by Don McLean. I also really really like 'Hotel California' by the Eagles. Also, I like some of the Beatles songs. But there's not a lot of songs I like from the 70's. Although in the 80's, I do like the Stevie Wonder song: 'I Just Called to Say I Love You'. I kind of like the Gloria Gaynor song, 'I Will Survive' but I think it kind of got old and its become a sort of joke now. Another song I find is fun and cool is 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' by Cyndi Lauper, I've listened to it countless times.
These are just some songs I like from this period of time. Some others of my all time favorite artists include: Queen (I love Queen so much), Michael Jackson (sometimes), The Police, Louis Armstrong, etc. Some modern bands and artists I like are: All Time Low, Fall Out Boys, My Chemical Romance, Busted, Avril Lavigne, Rihanna, etc.
