Thread integrity, yo.
Wait, this is a thread about "oldies." Who says oldies music is only 50's music? That's weird. And incomplete. I think Pretty Woman is absolutely an "oldie."

I can get behind this thread, but I wish we had enough fans of this stuff to necessitate more specific threads within this genre. I love the sound of these songs. Labels and studios really told you a lot about the sound of a record before you even dropped the needle.

This one kills me every time. It must have sounded so futuristic when it was released like a lot of those records at the dawn of the Space Age did. Old and new at the same time.

they say for every boy and girl

there's just one love in this whole world

and I - I know
I- I - I

found mine


the heavenly touch of your embrace tells me no one could take your place
ever
in my heart

young love
first love


filled

with true

devotion

young love
our love

we share
with deep
emotion

etc

possibly off topic but I love old soul music n would love to have a huge long playlist of the best of it. No idea where to start though.
