(Vanity) Participate in the '60s Music Tournament of hits!

Who wants to participate in a music play-off bracket-type poll for best songs of the '70s?

2 and 5 years ago I ran "tournaments" to pick the best songs of the '70s and '80s, based on Billboard rankings, so only the best of the best were included!

You can view how this played out here:

I want to do that for the '60s, and some posters expressed interest in the '60s back then.

This is one of my favorite songs of the '60's, but unfortunately, I don't believe it even charted. The singer was born in 1917 and is still alive in 2020.

In the Snow--Vera Lynn (1967)

Sure, sounds good.

I remember earlier. It was fun.

Thanks for the invite, but I feel like I’m too young to really have an opinion on much 60s music.

It depends on whether you consider (relative) youth a positive or negative factor ;-).

"It depends..."

Well, physically I feel 62, mentally I'm still 22.
But hey, I woke up breathing this morning, everything else is just gravy on top....
