Old guys, let me take you back
This was "our song" as I left my girlfriend as I headed off to college.

Mindbender for the really old and terminally hip.
This never really happened.
Or did it?

Sirius XM has a great selection of the oldies. Pretty much all I listen to now.

Some great stuff posted here.

1972 was a very good year for me. Thank you Para.

Thanks for the thread Para! For so reason I thought you were much younger than me(61) but now I kinda think we are closer to the same age.

It was probably due to my youthful fucking attitude.

And then, there was this. One of my favorites of all time:



Used to be, when I'd see a girl that I like,

We have a cover band here in Ohio that travels all over the U.S. and even does a cruise once a year.
They did this song when we saw them a couple times and they really had it right. They just do not play it all the time and I really like it.
WE just saw them Friday night and they did a couple Righteous Bros. songs.
I'd get out my book and write down her name.
But when the grass got a little greener on the other side,
I'd just tear out that page.

But then I fooled around and fell in love...

I just turned 63. Those were good times.

Lots of good music here in this thread many I have not listen to in many years. I'll add to it.





Of course can't talk about old stuff without The King!

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
