JUST OLDIES

Thanks for the song lists, Antoinette and Lauren. I will listen to those that I’m not familiar with on iTunes and will probably add some of them to my collection. Since you started something neat, I thought I would share my top 25 with you.

Keep in mind that I’m from a different generation, and I can’t help the fact that I like some disco and mostly soul/beach, in other words, just oldies for the most part. And I love easy listening like Frank Sinatra and Diana Krall, plus movie soundtracks such as The Phantom of the Opera and Out of Africa. I also like some classical, and my favorite is Vivaldi’s “Winter” from The Four Seasons. Oh, and as I mentioned before, I do so love Christmas music.
