100 songs I could listen to over and over

100 songs I could listen to over and over
Yes....I am obsessed. With music. Every song reminds me of someone or some place. Especially from "the olden days" as my nieces and nephew say - the 80's. Yikes! Where did the time go? The 80's...those were the best days of my life. Well a lot of them anyway. I have so many favorite songs I decided to start a list. The songs are mostly from the 80's, some are newer and some are from the 60's & 70's. Yes, some are corny, but I love them. I never thought that I would have so many. I set a limit of 100. They aren't in any particular order, just when I thought of some I added them to the list. I could still go on and on. But, these are the songs I would chose if i could only pick 100 songs to listen to for the rest of my life.
