Gerry Rafferty
Richard Harris and of course, Abba. it ALWAYS makes me sing out loud.

I have just bought the new Rod Stewart cd and played in the car after having 2 teeth out, cheered me up. Always was a Rod Stewart fan.
Don't really have favourite songs but love Bruce Springsteen too.
-
Springsteen is the boss :thumbsup:
-
Blimey Dan, I am going to have to you tube them, no idea of most of them........need a tumbleweed icon!
Know what you mean Sandy, Ive not heard of ONE of Dan's choices. Am I getting very old or am I just not "With it"?
-

Lol, I'm definitely not "with it" - Van Morrison currently playing!
I listen to music a lot of the time, so try loads of different things, otherwise it'd be mind-bending having the same 20 songs on a loop! :tired:
-
:wave:
My choices are all linked to things that have happened in my life. So here are five of my strongest choices.
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen -
Only Want to be With You - The Tourists
Bat Out of Hell - Meatloaf
You Ought to Know - Alannis Morissette
Memory - Elaine Page
