Though not from my childhood but my children's...we used to love listening to
Robin in The Rain by Raffi. It always brings a smile and good memories when I hear it. A catchy little ditty.

CLASSICAL NERD ALERT
When I was in fourth grade my class went on a field trip to the local orchestra's children's concert, and one of the pieces they performed was the Farandole from Bizet's "L'Arlésienne Suite No.2." Half a century later, I am still moved by listening to it.
In a very different vein, my mother loved Frank Sinatra, and the one song I remember from that time was One For My Baby. It was the first kind-of-blues song I ever heard, and fifty years later it still speaks to me, much more deeply now that it did then. In my music appreciation classes one assignment I sometimes give the students is to compare/contrast this song with Billie Holliday's Strange Fruit, in both cases how the music reflects the message of the lyrics. It usually works as a good first step away from pop garbage towards what they could hear if they really listened to classical music--for which I can in part thank my mother.

That’s an easy one. Pretty much anything by The Beach Boys and Jan and Dean. Little celebrations of American fun and freedom.

Poetry In Motion from around 1960.

Lots of the do-wop bands from 1955-1964. Music went to crap when the Beatles landed.
Mexicali Rose by Gene Autry, NOT Bob Wills.
San Antonio Rose by Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys
