My year at boarding school, Sept. 1968 to June 1969 was a fascinating experience and like every other memory I have, contains a soundtrack. A specific song will instantly transport me back, just like a time machine. Please, won’t you come along for the ride?

Hey Debbie,
As you might know already, I’m not fond of oldy songs much 🙂 There were times that oldies got my attention and I was all ears in such times.
I’ve been through all the songs and “Hello I Love You” and “Paint it Black” are of my taste Debbie 😉
Have you heard of “I’m a Man”? ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hdL65J8m9A
Now what do you think of my taste on songs? 😉 lol…
Cheers…
Good day, Mayura; I am old, so I do like the old songs. 😉 Each one of those selections had a specific memory attached, from that particular time. Actually, I like your choice, too! Great driving guitar sound. Hard rock is one of my passions. BTW, that’s a remake of an oldie. 😉 Thanks for dropping by. Cheers!
OMG, i love this music!!! Brings back many memories for me too :-). thanks so much for sharing!
Ganz ganz herzlichen Dank auch für Deinen lieben Komentar, i really hope it will be sorted soon.
big hug

You’re welcome, Jutta. Alles Gute! 🙂
Spring 1969 my New Jersey high school Spanish class took a tip to Spain & Portugal…My friends & I met some guys, snuck out of our hotel and met them at a disco in Madrid…The two songs I remember being played over and over that night were both The Beatles: “Birthday” and yes, Obla Di Obla Da…and I certainly remember most everything else on your playlist…Memories!
That’s a wonderful memory, Gizmo. Thanks for sharing it with me. Cheers! 🙂
Thanks for posting “Where Do You Go To, My Lovely?” That song fascinated me, and I occasionally remember it, but I haven’t heard it in decades. What a nice memory.
You’re welcome, Elaine. It’s stuck in my head now, too, but, I love it. Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend. 🙂
