Roy Orbison-Crying










I was alright, for a while
I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello
Oh, you wished me well
You couldn't tell
That I've been
Crying over you
Crying over you

Then you said so long
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more
Than I did before
But darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
And I'll always be
Crying over you
Crying over you
Yes, now you're gone

And from this moment on
I'll be crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
Yeah, I'm crying
Crying
Over you

Kylie Minogue-I Should Be So Lucky










In my imagination
There is no complication
I dream about you all the time
In my mind, a celebration
The sweetest of sensation
Thinking you could be mine
In my imagination
There is no hesitation
We walk together hand in hand

I'm dreaming
You fell in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love
I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love

It's a crazy situation
You always keep me waiting
Because it's only make believe
And I would come a-running
To give you all my loving
If one day you would notice me
My heart is close to breaking
And I can't go on faking
The fantasy that you'll be mine

I'm dreaming
That you're in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love
I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love

I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, (I, I)
I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

In my imagination
There is no hesitation
We walk together hand in hand

I'm dreaming
That you're in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love
I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love
I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love (in love)
I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky

The 70s is my all-time favourite decade for music. Makes me nostalgic for a time I wasn't even around to experience first-hand.

These songs are on my playlist of music I'm going to listen to shortly before I go:

George McCrae - Rock Your Baby (1974)



Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reaper (1976)



Boston - More Than A Feeling (1976)
*This song is also on the list of songs I want played at my funeral.



Electric Light Orchestra - Evil Woman (1975)



Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love (1977)
*I can't even tell you how much I love the strings in the chorus near the end of the song. The Bee Gees were absolutely brilliant all-around. I've also asked for their song "Morning Of My Life" to be played at my funeral as well.

Kylie Minogue-I Should Be So Lucky

I thought that was 86 or 87?? Good song though, typical SAW earworm and Kylie's just a class act.

I had to Google it. 1987
I sometimes post songs after the 70's ... I'm not sure if the op cares.(Hasn't said anything)
If it matters I will stop. I think any song over a decade is considered gold.

Kylie Minogue-Locomotion










Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now
(Come on baby do the locomotion)
I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now
(Come on baby do the locomotion)

My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learning your A B C's
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me

You gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you got the knack, ohh

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now
(Come on baby do the locomotion)
Chug-a chug-a motion like a railway train now
(Come on baby do the locomotion)

Do it nice and easy now don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me

Come on, do the locomotion
Come on, do the locomotion
Come on, do the locomotion
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Move around the floor in a locomotion
(Come on baby do the locomotion)
Do it holding hands if you got the notion
(Come on baby do the loco-motion)

There's never been a dance that's so easy to do
It even makes you happy when you're feeling blue
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me

You gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you got the knack, ohh

Do the loc, do the loc, do the loco locomotion
(Come on do the locomotion)
Do the loc, do the loc, do the loco locomotion
(Come on, do the locomotion)

Come on baby
All that you can do is come on baby
Come on, come on, come on, come on...
Come on!

Olivia Newton John-Heart Attack









My mouth is dry
My legs are weak
I'm thinking this 'cause I can't speak
I'm looking at you
You're looking at me
You must think that I'm just crazy

If you only knew
What you're putting me through
It feels like a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Must have died and gone to heaven
What a way to go

I can't catch my breath
You must be a dream
But you're the cutest thing I've ever seen
I'm way past the point
Of recovery
You're gonna be the death of me

If you only knew
What you're putting me through
It feels like a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Must have died and gone to heaven
What a way to go

A heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack

Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack

Barry Manilow-It's Just Another New Years Eve









"It's Just Another New Year's Eve"

Don't look so sad,
It's not so bad you know.
It's just another night,
That's all it is.
It's not the first,
It's not the worst you know,
We've come through all the rest,
We'll get through this.

We've made mistakes,
But we've made good friends too.
Remember all the nights we spent with them?
And all our plans,
Who says they can't come true?
Tonight's another chance to start again.

It's just another New Year's Eve,
Another night like all the rest.
It's just another New Year's Eve,
Let's make it the best.
It's just another New Year's Eve,
It's just another Auld Lang Syne,
But when we're through this New Year
You'll see, will be
Just fine.

We're not alone, we've got the world you know.
And it won't let us down, just wait and see.
And we'll grow old, but think how wise we'll grow.
There's more you know, it's only New Year's Eve.

It's just another New Year's Eve,
Another night like all the rest.
It's just another New Year's Eve,
Let's make it the best.
It's just another New Year's Eve,
It's just another Auld Lang Syne,
But when we're through this New Year, you'll see, will be
Just fine.

Rest In Peace
David Soul-Don't Give Up On Us









Don't give up on us, baby
Don't make the wrong seem right
The future isn't just one night
It's written in the moonlight
Painted on the stars
We can't change ours

Don't give up on us, baby, we're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening when maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know we can still come through

I really lost my head last night
You've got a right to start believin'
There's still a little love left even so

Don't give up on us, baby
Lord knows we've come this far
Can't we stay the way we are?
The angel and the dreamer
Who sometimes plays a fool
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through

It's written in the moonlight
Painted on the stars
We can't change ours

Don't give up on us, baby, we're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening when maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know we can still come through

Don't give up on us, baby
Don't give up on us, baby

Olivia Newton John-Shaking You
(Seems like forever)









Why do I have to care for you?
When I should have known to stay away
Why was I there for you?

I don't know how I lost my touch
I never believed that I could ever want
Somebody's love so much

Time can shake me loose from the blues
But who would know I'd be this slow shaking you

I don't know what I'm looking for
I just let the arrows go and hope I find what I am shooting for

So don't say that you'll be there for me
If you don't care for me, I'll be gone
'Cause I don't have the strength to be this strong
Tell me all what to do
Who knew that I'd take so long shaking you

Now I'm waiting to hit the ground
I'm painting my love for you in corners I know I will get around

Time can shake me loose from the blues
But who would know I'd be this slow shaking you

I don't know what I'm looking for
I just let the arrows go and hope I find what I am shooting for

Ronnie Spector's(of the Ronnettes) version of the Beach Boys 1960's song Don't Worry Baby.

See me ride out of the sunset
On your color TV screen

Don't you start no fight

I'm a wanted man
Public enemy number one
Understand?

So lock up your daughter
Lock up your wife
Lock up your back door
Run for your life
The man is back in town
So don't you mess me 'round

'Cause I'm T.N.T., I'm dynamite

T.N.T., I'm a power load

Foreigner-Jukebox Hero








Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six-string in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar felt good in his hands
Didn't take long to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one-way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rocking
He is never going to stop
Got to keep on rocking
Someday he's going to make it to the top

And be a jukebox hero (got stars in his eyes)
He's a jukebox hero
He took one guitar (jukebox hero, stars in his eyes)
Jukebox hero (stars in his eyes)
He'll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep on rocking
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rocking
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a jukebox hero (got stars in his eyes)
He's a jukebox hero (got stars in his eyes)
Yeah, jukebox hero (stars in his eyes)
With that one guitar (stars in his eyes), he'll come alive
Come alive tonight

Yeah, he's gotta keep on rocking
Just can't stop
Gotta keep on rocking
That boy has got to stay on top
And be a jukebox hero (got stars in his eyes)
He's a jukebox hero (got stars in his eyes)

That one guitar (jukebox hero)
Put stars in his eyes
Yeah, he's just a jukebox hero
Jukebox hero
Jukebox hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes
