I was looking at my winamp playlist and I noticed that most of my songs were made before I was in grade school, or much more, before I was born.

Moody Blues - Nights in White Satin

Gene Loves Jezebel - Desire

Berlin - Take My Breath Away

Moody Blues - Departure/Ride My See Saw

Lee Winwood - Some Velvet Morning

Eric Clapton - Layla (Not the crappy unpluged version, the version that rocks)

Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing

Bauhaus - She's In Parties

Sisters of Mercy - More

Righteous Borthers - Unchained Melody

Some of those songs, I'm just listening to so I can learn how to either sing them or play them, so I can impress a lady friend of mine, but the others, I can embarrassingly say I like (And I'm not going to mention which ones either.)

hadenuf - I agree with that one!

How about Sinatra "Mac the knife"

Most of the ones listed I love - but [age tells] I was older than grade school when they came out

Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant

But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

So any time your gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam

But he had high hopes, he's got high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes

So any time your feelin' bad
'Stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam

I know a ditty nutty as a fruitcake
Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon
Some call it pretty,
others call it crazy
But they all sing this tune:

Mairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
Yes! Mairzy doats and dozy doats
and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

If the words sound queer
And funny to your ear,
A little bit jumbled and jivey
Sing "Mares eat oats
And does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy"

Oh! Mairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
