Favourite songs from way back when.

I think this is almost better than the original, almost as its only a instrumental, see it till the end, looks very clever to me.

 

My dad used to like Shirley Bassey

I also remember Kathy Kirby

 

My dad was always on about Alma Cogan whoever she was.
But remember Brenda Lee, there's another female singer of those days but the name escapes me at the moment.

 

He would have loved Shirley singing with the propeller heads. You can hear she's having a lot of fun. Song was History Repeating.

 

I think that in those days. The lyrics had great meanings. For instance many songs were actually ballads. A boy would be telling his girl, just how much he loved her. Most songs were backed by the guitar.

The girls mostly had some maturity to their voices, whereas today, so many lasses have little or no control over whatever degree of their vocal chords. We can all shout and scream but the skill in becoming a singer is, to make ones utterances pleasing to the listening ear.

 

Who are the propeller heads?

 

Your right @Mike Allen i never listen the music now a days.

 

I've been playing the Dooleys again and can't seem to get them out of my head.

 

Here's a better one
