Those Olden Days

[Babyjustrun]

So obviously everyone on this board listens to disney music, broadway music & mainstream.

I know you guys listen to old music (anytime before the year 2000) so i'm wondering what old stuff do you listen to? be it cheesy or stuff your parents listen to.

[Example: Absolutely (Story Of A Girl) - Nine Days]
if you don't know that song it's..

This is a story of a girl,
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world,
Oh she looks so sad in photographs,
But I absolutely love her when she smiles..

 

[Sparx]

most of my music is from before 2000. I'm not the biggest fan of recent music (and I love "Story of a girl" btw)

 

[Babyjustrun]

i just spent forever trying to get that song to play on my mp3 player. i hate the stupid touch screen!
raawwr.

i adore Billy Joel, Bryan Adams.. Foreigner.. lemme think xD

you can give examples if you want Shelby... i'm bored, i need some sort of a conversation on something.

 

[Sparx]

I went through my current play list, and picked out some of my favorites


sixpence none the richer, which is from early nineties. I think they're still together. not sure. (kiss me, there she goes)

the clash, circa 1983. (rock the casbah, should I stay or should I go, train in vain, cheat)

Lynyrd skynyrd (whats your name)

ABBA (momma mia, dancing queen)

Cyndi Lauper (she bop)

smash mouth (I'm a believer)

I think tatu is from before 2000 anyway (all the thigns she said)

elvis (too many to list)

bill medley (I've had the time of my life)

mickey and sylvia (love is strange)

the buggles (video killed the radio star)

I've got a ton more

 

[Babyjustrun]

Elvis is love. Blue Suede Shoes is my favorite. Heartbreak Hotel is amazing as well.

Sweet Home Alabama is my favorite my Lynyrd.

Johnny Cash (I Walk The Line, Folsom Prison Blues)
Loverboy (Everybody's Working For The Weekend)
Sweet (Ballroom Blitz)
Elton John (That's Why They Call It The Blues)

 

[Dragonlord11_7]

Wow... I thought I was the only one who liked "Story of a Girl". That was one of my all time favorites.

 

[Babyjustrun]

it's like a summertime anthem from when i was like 7 or something like that. it never stopped being played on the radio.

 

[Dragonlord11_7]

Oh! Now all those songs are flooding back to me! All Star broke the dam. Let's see...

Soak up the sun
Kryptonite (2000?)
Bye bye bye
Oops i did it again
Elton John
Journey

Yea... the list goes on. And yes, as a kid I listened to that stuff. Oh well, those were the hits back then.

 

[Babyjustrun]

Kryptonite is amazing.
& i love that song by Journey.. umm.

If that's they way you want,
that's they way youg get it!

 

[DisneyGirl421]

I have to say I have a guilty pleasure of late 90s pop. Like Nysnc, BSB, Christina, Britney, etc.
Especially 2gether. (anyone remember them? The mockumentary boyband MTV created? haha I <3 them... U + Me = Us. hehe)

and of course, the classics. Beatles, Eagles, Billy Joel, Beach Boys, etc.

 

[Loves Disney]

I don't like much of the recent stuff...I am more of a 70's - 80's girl...but I do like some 90's.

Eiffel 65 (every song EXCEPT Blue lol)
Queen
Aerosmith (a top favorite)
Enya
Journey (another top favorite)
Guns N' Roses
Smash Mouth
Barenaked Ladies
Led Zeppelin
Bon Jovi
Van Halen
Creed
Sugar Ray

And oh my gosh, the list goes on FOREVER!!

[tinkerbelle22]

I looooove Elton John. I have Daniel (name of my little brother, so I especially like this song ), Your Song, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting, and Don't Let the Sun go Down on Me on my iPod. That's great music right there. I also love Billy Joel, my friends and I are always singing songs by him

 

[PhntmTllbth04]

On my iPod I have a movie soundtrack from a movie made in the 90s but take place in the 70s, Now and Then. And I also have the TV show soundtrack to American Dreams. A couple songs from Dirty Dancing. Oh and The Essence of Simon and Garfunkel. But I have some songs from 2006 but I don't listen to them often.
