Thread Name: Saccharine Overload (songs)
Subject: RE: Saccarine Overload
'Course not, Amos--you were your usual tactful self...

but that's my era, honey, and I kinda like Hot Diggety (Oh, what you do to me!) and This Old House. Most of the music then was meant to dance to, American Bandstand style, and wasn't intended by any means to be profound--but I wouldn't call the ones you listed saccharine, either.

Well, maybe "Love Letters" would qualify. But when that's the song you get your first kiss to, it do change your perspective on the music! (We were a lot more innocent then than teenyboppers are now...)
