A singer I know sings a lot of songs that 'no one' ever sings anymore and the people love it. Songs like 'Home on the Range', 'You are My Sunshine', 'Red River Valley', 'Grandfather's Clock', 'Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kitbag', lots of others. She sings from many different eras and genres and artists: Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, John Denver, Patsy Cline, Bill Staines, Jo Stafford, Satchmo... Pretty amazing. But what surprises me the most is how many people welcome the songs they learned as children. They sing along lustily and ask for more.
