Thread Name: Music We Lived Our Lives By (songs)
Subject: RE: Music We Lived Our Lives By
Good thread.

I grew up with singing in the church choir & Girl Scouts. I did not (was not allowed to) listen to much popular music.

This thread got me thinking & the song that most comes to mind is the first popular song I was pro-active about learning the words to. It was a song I picked & I learned it just so that I could know it, so for that reason it's special. I was about 10 & it was "Downtown." So much for good taste! I completely disagree with the sentiments of the song now, but it still makes me smile.

The recent messages made me think of The Dutchman
