What are songs/music you loved as a child and still love to this day?
Thanks for that, I had never heard it before. Utube is amazing, now I have a whole genre to investigate.
I went to Academy HS, Erie, PA. We were the Lions. Unfortunately, the school was closed more than twenty years ago. There was a wonderful closing program in the stadium, packed with alumni. I went with my Dad, Class of ‘36. As we left the stadium, the words, “In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight...” rose from the sound system. The exiting crowd stopped, sang and danced until the song was finished. Perfect.
For a real treat, look up on Youtube, The Lion Sleeps Tonight Billy Joel Jimmy Fallon, or use those search terms at Google.com.
So does Bull Moose Jackson
The Score from Victoy at Sea
Ben Hur
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band-Beatles
The Twist- Chubby Checker
It’s My Party- Lesle Gore just deceased
The Four Seasons
Bye, Bye, Miss American Pie - Don Mclane
Grease

The way I make a post show a picture that is clickable and takes you to a link is just simple html. Basically there are 3 parts to making a link with a picture:
Part 1) <a href=[put the full web address to the link here]>
Part 2) <img width=[use a number around 640+/- here so the picture is not HUGE] src=[put the full web address for the image file here]>
Part 3) </a>
So, for example, if you wanted to make a link that has a cute kitty picture that a Freeper can click that takes them to the Freepathon donation page, it would look like this:
<a href=https://secure.freerepublic.com/donate/><img width=500 src=http://s12.postimg.org/fz1b8pggd/catpicture.jpg></a>
If you want just a link for Part 2 (no picture) you can just retype the web address with no brackets or anything and it shows what you put there as highlighted underlined blue text.
Hope that's not too confusing.
Too many to even mention. I never had “A” favorite and when I start thinking about it I love too many to mention. Songs all have ‘associations’ to me, a time, a place or a person.
Hello Rodamala...I never properly thanked you for this. THANKS! I’m going to send it to myself so I can try to figure out when need to do it. :)
