Thank you OLR

Gotta say that my picks were ALL based on sentimental value and absolutely NOT on artistry. Perhaps as the survey whittles down some and as we get into the latter part of the decade that’ll change.

You’re welcome, but this is not an “artistry” or “guess the BB placing” poll - it’s for people to pick as they wish!

So you have nothing to worry about. Just go with your gut - and your heart. I sure do.

I was just a little tot then, but my parents loved to listen to the radio, so many of the tunes were familiar.

I had to evaluate whether to favor the ones I favored as a small child, or the ones I like today. But there was a surprising amount of confluence.

Some tunes are just better than others, and likewise some singers, according to many of one's hard-wired tastes. I stil loathe "Oh, My Papa" and "C'mon-a My House," even though both those artists had great voices and other tolerable songs. Those two songs rankle me even more than "Doggie in the Window."

But rules is rules, so I just ranked them last.
