Over the last week I have spent A LOT of time on itunes buying music. I bought a few golden oldies here and there and now I can't stop!! I have bought 31 songs since February 1st. That is more than a song a day for the month of February and it's only the 6th!!!!
I used to always to listen to the oldies station in the car with my mom. So I am pretty well versed in songs from the 50s, 60s, and to a lesser extent the 70s. Most of these songs I don't have on CD, so I went hunting on itunes for them. Who knew Gary Lewis and The Playboys were on itunes? I think I heard a song last weekend that I wanted and it Spiral Starecased from there! (note: Spiral Starecase is a group from the 60s. I suggest looking them up.)
I bought songs by the Zombies, Animals, the Byrds, the Turtles, Lou Christie, John Lennon, Three Dog Night, Bobby Darin, Del Shannon, the Contours, the Chiffons, and the Drifters to name a few. Then I bought some more recent songs: 50 Cent and two from the movie "Slumdog Millionaire." Then I got on a 90s kick: Timmy T, Tommy Page, Bryan Adams, Blind Melon. There were a few others, but those are my true guilty pleasures that I seriously won't admit to owning or knowing all the words. However, put me near a jukebox and you might, just maybe, catch me shelling out my hard earned cash on these guilty pleasures!

Okay, come clean...what are the guilty pleasures? By the way, love the Timmy T Song and I think we sing it just as well if not better...boo hiss Charlie, he doesn't know great talent when he sees it.
In the olden days, I saw Three Dog Night at a place called the Ice Palace in Vegas. It was a ice skating rink by day and a rock band concert place on weekends. I love iTunes.
Kristi - you're right - we did do a good job singing!!
Okay - the guilty pleasures (downloaded since 2/1/09): "A Whole New World", Britney Spears "If U Seek Amy," Quad City DJs "C'mon 'n Ride It (The Train)", and Kansas "Dust in the Wind."
