So f*ck. Feel good songs

Showing some ages these selections mind

 

A very personal song

 

Funnily enough we had a 'music night' the last time my son and daughter in law were around.

We were Bluetoothing YouTube clips through the B&O speaker and taking turns for 'happy' requests.

The choices were surprising and loads were from the past like Chuck Berry etc. We were really struggling to find modern songs that are just daft and carefree.

Im sure there are some, aren't there ....

 

Couple that get me singing along in my tone deaf but enthusiastic style.

I think the Kasabian song would be a good choice for us to run out to, good tune and uplifting lyrics. At least we've ditched the Prokofiev now.

 

The first single ( for you millenials a round piece of black plastic played at 45 rpm ) I ever bought was released 49 years ago.
Alright now by Free.
Still makes me feel good.
On my phone and dont know ( as a baby boomer ) how to upload with a phone

 

The original is still the best but this one comes a very close second.

 

Bloody hell. First single I bought was Remember You’re A Womble funnily enough by The Wombles.

 

Grandson is learning to play the ukulele at school so I put George Formby I’m leaning on a lamp post on you tube he was amazed and him as well as his younger brother and sister keep asking to put the funny man on the iPad, we often put old children’s songs on to entertain them in the same way we were entertained by them when we were growing up . Memories!

 

Oh feck off..you are joking

 

I was six years old man....what did you expect me to buy at that age!

 

Your avatar reminds me of "who shall have a fishy" which i hated as a 8/9 year old and having it constantly sang to me in school in Wales ffs.
That and the Tudor crisps advert recited ffs

One me dad had on 45 single a few years earlier i used to play over and over was

 

Alan Price is one of the few Geordies liked more in Sunderland than Newcastle then.
My first records were given to me by my when I was 5, and included Bing Crosby ( MacNamaras Band) and Paul Robeson 9Lindy Lou) dont here them to often these days. .

 

He was born in Fatfield Washington mate and mackems were Geordies back then

 

That figures, he used to get to the match now and again in the 60's / 70's, and got into Annabels once or twice, he also married a Sunderland girl, although he met her in London circles. He was unpopular on Tyneside, not because of that , but the claim he made about the royalties from the Animals first album. I knew that Bryan Ferry came from Washington, but never connected the Geordie Boy from there, thanks for the info.
As for Mackems being Geordies, .

 

Macnamaras band used to be the song Tottenham ran out to at White Hart Lane
