Oldies - Playing the Greatest Hits of the 50's, 60's, and 70's

[AnOminous]

Possibly the greatest song of all time.

Oldies is such an open-ended term I think. I consider crooners like Sinatra, Bing Crosby, or jazz singers like Billie Holiday to be oldies. Some people think classic rock like the Beatles are oldies. Very interesting. Good thread with some great songs nevertheless.

One of my favorite Sinatra tracks.

Speaking of Joe Dassin, I could also mention this song. A French adaptation of "City of New Orleans".

Best sad song of all time.

And saddest cover by Margot Timmins and the Cowboy Junkies. Canadians but I'll forgive them for it.

[AnOminous]

Charming song from Herb Alpert (by Julius Wechter who was one of the Tijuana Brass).

I was reminded of it because it's what they cut away to after Joker blows Murray away and is leaning into the camera.
