A child of the 60’s (born in 1953) I was priviledged with some of the best, and worst of popular music. Worst to follow later, hopefully much later, but let me have your nominations!
My favourite music
//1. Pink Floyd
//1. Jefferson Airplane
//1 Fleetwood Mac
//4. Bowie
//4. Jack Johnson
6. Carol King
7. Rolling Stones
8. Some of the Beatles
9. Stone Roses
10. Morcheeba
11. Aretha Franklin
12. Melanie Safka
13. The Who
14.Simon and Garfunkle
15. Beach Boys
16. Shakira
17. Fur Elise
There are many that I have just a few songs by like Carly Simon, Roberta Flack (Tamsin says I like wailing women!), Undertones, Oasis, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Neil Young, Robbie Williams ( I like ‘anthems’!), Sinead O’Connor, Queen, Coldplay, Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, Kate Bush, Linda Gibson. And some oldies like Hollies, Kinks, Manfred Mann, Dave Clark Five (half time on freezing days at Chelmsford City matches). I quite liked classical music in the school library where the acoustics suited it. I am sure there are many more songs that will trigger a special moment!
I guess the telling thing would be – could you hack just hearing the top 5, or even just your top 10/17?
