Favorite songs during High School
Posted Tuesday, May 19, 2009 09:05 AM

OK...so someone has to start this (and I guess it has to be me). It's impossible to pick one favorite for each year in high school, but here's a list of some of my favorites from those years:

1967 - Brown Eyed Girl (Van Morrison), I'm a Believer (the Monkees), Light My Fire (the Doors), Happy Together (The Turtles), I Heard It Through the Grapevine (Gladys Knight and the Pips)

1968 - Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay (Otis Redding), Classical Gas (Mason Williams), Abraham, Martin and John (Dion), Tuesday Afternoon (the Moody Blues)

1969 - Build Me Up Buttercup (Foundations), Sweet Caroline (Neil Diamond), Something (Beatles), Bad Moon Risin' (CCR), Time of the Season (Zombies), Suspicious Minds (the "King")

1970 - Bridge Over Troubled Waters (Simon and Garfunkel), Spirit in the Sky (Norman Greenbaum), American Woman (Guess Who), Fire and Rain (James Taylor)

Eclectic, yes...complete?..not even close, but these are still favorites of mine.Very Happy

Well you hit on alot of them, and there are so many! I really liked the Union Gap back then, and I will have to dig out my albums and see whats there. Too bad the 8 tracks are all melted! ha!
