My own favorite from that year was from The Everly Brothers, “All I Have To Do Is Dream”

[Gay State Conservative]

I love a lot of the stuff released in the 50s.The 50s and 60s,combined,are the best era for many different kinds of music.Pop,rock,easy listening,instrumentals,folk...thanks to my amazing library system and CD burners I have a collection of over 5,000 songs on CD...98% of which are from the 50s and 60s.

Let’s see, in 1958 I was ten. I think the Everly Brothers and Ricky Nelson were my favorites back then.

Theme From "A Summer Place"

[Fiji Hill]

I like the original version.

Nel Blu, Dipinto di Blu (into the blue, painted blue)--Domenico Modugno (1958)

[SmokingJoe]

I totally LOVE the Everly Brothers. Their music just went straight to your heart and soul.

[Fiji Hill]

Now who wants to waltz and minuet?
Two hundred years ago, you bet!
But this is 1958,
And I want to dance right up to date!

Tom Foolery--The Monotones (1958)

[dfwgator]

I like the Newbomb Turk version.

[carikadon]

I loved growing up in the 50’s. I hear from the younger generations how they wished they could have grown up in those times. Cherry Coke, Drive in Theaters, Spin the bottle, great music, God, Family and Country mattered and innocence was bliss.

[Bonemaker]

That was the original and was superb. However, I just like the hell out of Dino!

[SmokingJoe]

A wonderful song. Thank you.

At a time like this, its great to sit down and reminisce about what wonderful lives we've had.
I am sure our children, grand children a, great grandchildren will figure out a way to deal with the current calamity that has been visited on our country.

The Everly Brothers were both Marines.

[Bonemaker]

That’s because pop music then generally reflected the happiness, decency, wholesomeness and overall prosperity of when America was still America.

Buddy Holly

[Red Badger]

He sang about a ugly car?...........................

[Jim W N]

The Everly Brothers were both Marines.

Who woulda thunk it?

Weren't they feuding later?

Why use CDs? You can fit hundreds of thousands of songs on a USB stick.
